azuarc 04/12/17 10:24:46 PM #347 | Favorable trades don't matter if you don't have a firm board presence. They don't really worry about the board until they get Crystal Core off. If you're only playing 1 minion per turn, they can basically handle/absorb that until they can get their army of 5/5s up and running. On either 5 or 6, you get hit with 3 charging 5/5s usually. Either they eat your board, spreading the damage safely, and then bouncing their guys so you can't finish them off, or they just begin the assault on your face. So I have to play aggro. And so does anyone else who doesn't want to lose to this deck. Which means everyone's just going to go back to playing pirate warrior. Sigh. |

The Atelier Meruru bonus track sounds just like the original, but a lot less clean. The link I listened to sounded fuzzy and distorted, in an intentional kinda way. |

azuarc 04/12/17 10:17:12 PM #312 | Results, day 22: XXX - fuck I didn't get to vote Two minutes later... azuarc - gdi, I just shouldn't have said anything Location of Power < Battle With Magus, 9-13 Denshou no Shi -Verum- = Ruriair, 11-11 Sonic Boom (Closing Theme) = Vortex Infinitum, 11-11 Um, yeah. There was a point with 45 minutes left where we were poised to potentailly have a TRIPLE TIE, but the two people who came along in the meanwhile both voted Magus, making that a 3 vote lead. The more disturbing part of this poll, actually, is that it's the lowest votals we've had so far in the contest, at 22. |

azuarc 04/12/17 9:15:03 PM #341 | Man, I want to know which quest rogue deck you guys are playing against. The first two games I played against it, I won and assumed it was just a bad deck. Turns out I had a really fast opening in those games. Every time I've played it since, I have lost. We're talking 10-15 games, across several different decks. The rogue seems to always finish the quest on exactly turn 5, always preps it out, and from that point forward, you're fighting a battle against a deck that has nothing but cheap minions that generally draw or summon more cheap minions, or they bounce the charge minions so they can attack again (and refresh their health). Yeah, I'm not especially amused, and I'm wondering what these supposed weaknesses in the deck are so I can exploit them. Short of playing an aggro deck, I'm not sure how to combat this one. |

azuarc 04/11/17 8:24:59 AM #275 | DDOS is hardly the first time that we've seen a deck like this. When Grand Tournament came out, someone realized Nozdormu plus two jousts right at the end of your turn would gradually occupy all of the time on your opponent's. However, it was a really gimmicky and hard to pull off deck. I haven't seen DDOS in action. Is it pretty consistent? |

azuarc 04/10/17 10:04:33 PM #55 | tcaz2 posted... No, you're the one that is making the fallacious argument. Vegetables are more akin to music as a whole, with many, many different kinds of styles, textures, and flavors that can't even remotely be compared to one another. Those are the other food groups. |

azuarc 04/10/17 5:19:08 PM #46 | What you're arguing is like saying "you don't like any rap songs? But there are so many kinds, depending on who the artist is, and..." I'm sure there's tens of thousands of rap songs, but if you've experienced 50 of them, that's probably a large enough sample size. (Just an example. I'm not saying I hate rap.) |

Topic | Do you like vegetables? |
azuarc 04/10/17 1:33:47 PM #33 | trdl23 posted... I probably should have specified "non-starch" vegetables. Most of the time when I talk about vegetables, people tell me that potatoes don't count. Because, aside from starches, I don't eat vegetables. I refuse to. Don't like the taste, don't like the texture. No amount of "but they're good for you" will ever change that. If you can wipe away both of those, like in a soup, then okay. I can stand almost anything in a soup. The thing that makes me a little unique is that I give fruit the same treatment. |
