MTGO Name: dougbiss Real Name: Doug Bissonnette
I've been playing MTG since Arabians were still on the shelf, but I stopped playing for many years. I got back into the game about a year ago and now play Pauper exclusively, online only. I'm with the Pauper Krew clan, which is a clan dedicated exclusively to Pauper.
I've been a lifelong gamer and even worked in the industry for a while (with a CCG named Wyvern) and I think it's great that there's finally a way to be competitive in MTG without spending a ton of money.
Thanks for the podcast, guys!

Welcome dougbiss! Hope u enjoy your stay What decks are you playing at the moment? Sounds like a fun clan, but I am at Limited Resources which is pretty awesome clan too (sort of official clan of mtgcast too)

I still consider myself to be "in training" so I've been trying out various decks. I prefer Classic and have ran UR Post, Infect, Affinity, G Ramp Post and a few others. I'm currently going to start running the new Delver MUC variant. Pauper Krew is a great clan for pauper players. We've got well over 100 players right now, many of who take top 8 every week in PDC events. Of course, we can't compete with the big clans like Limited Resources... we just stick to our little corner of the clan world and specialize rather than try to get huge.
Thanks for the welcome!

I'm Sam, I don't get to play online anymore cause my wife says I was addicted to doing drafts in the middle of the night, when she wasn't awake to stop me. I live in Kansas, and am trying to get a pauper group together for paper pauper cubes and tourneys and stuff. I started playing right after Revised, and ripping duals from packs was just sweet. I quit for Urza's Block, and then again right after Time Spiral, which I hated. Found MikeyK and other Magic players on youtube, and I got back in. I always wanted to be a Ghostbuster. This seems like a fun forum. I'll probably post by pauper brews for comments and stuff whenever I'm bored.

I wanted to be Jason from Battle of the Planets, but I don't expect anyone else to even remember that show. G-Force!

Its so cool you worked on Wyvern, I totally remember that game. I think I even played it a few times. I always dug the fringy games, like Deadlands, and Wyvern, and Illuminate, or the Highlander game. Its just sad that Magic is so good few other games ever had a chance to shine. I thought Battle of the Planets was Voltron, just the Japanese version. Not really a manga/Anime guy though.

It was a great game that had, IMO, horrible art and poorly written rules. By the time we had all that straightened out, it was just too late. That's what happens when you rush to market, though... It was fun while it lasted, I got to travel the country running tournaments, designed the best expansion the game had, played games with Richard Garfield and hung out with Mark Justice (who was one of our top players) and got paid well to do it all. I can't complain.

Wasn't Justice a big deal magic player to? I remember the art being less the stellar, but it was better then other games lol. Like the still shots lifted from the Highlander movies and series for the Highlander tcg, without the rights to show people like any of the main actors or Deadlands, that was all art by Brom, but didn't have enough cards to actually build a deck, and never launched a second set. You literally couldn't build a deck even with 8 of each card. Bleh. Or the Wildstorm game, or the early Ledgend of the Five Rings early sets, great game, crap art.

Hi all,
I found these boards after I had spoke to someone at the Dugout (I can't remember the name though).
I'm a returning player and looking at making a few friends to play Magic with. I have very little in the way of a collection, but i'll slowly build it up again. I just need people to practice and decktest with.
I live in St. Cloud. And oh, my real name is Chris Schulte.
