NERDS ASSEMBLE!!!! Anyone play MTG: Magic, the Gathering?

So, I really love me some magic cards. Only started playing in the Fall of 2013, and it's pretty fuckin sweet.

I have had to try to convert existing friends, rather than try to curb my behaviour in order to join the existing world of magic players.

I just don't think that my chain-smoking cigarettes, pot, drinking, and constant swears would be appreciated in all of the pre-teen/ teen playing circles organized at the magic stores. At the very least their mothers would probably hate me....hahaha

i go to like a local gaming place, its much older people as its the dude who owns it runs it
try to find something like that an older crowd though generally table top gaming places try not to say no to younger people aswell because were all nerds and being told no fucking sucks

Oh true - I don't think THEy would like MY behaviour there. I'm sure I'd be super fine with all of them...hahaha.

I may have come across as kinda scunty there - I meant no disrespect to the actual players...they terrify me and would probably murder me in the first 2 turns...but I definitely would like to play with them.

Just NOT at the establishments that frown upon smoking, weed, and drinking. Once things become a little more legal out thurr in Canada - who knows! I would go to a weed shop and play magic, that's for sure!

no but i go in stoned, its a business so cant do that, buthonestly once im in a game, with people i dont need to be toking up in public ya know?

Hmmmm....maybe I've been playing it wrong...haha

It's been an integral ingredient in every game I have ever played. I feel like Gandalf puffing on a huuuuge pipe.

I think the chain-smoking cigarettes may more so be what keeps me out of the public games. A public OUTDOOR game....in Colorado...that sounds right up my alley.

So....what's kind of deck do you play with?

I play black and green. Never got into any of the other colours really - I like my skulls and plants - obvi.

I should just go to the organized game place and smoke an electronic ciggy next time. They'd probably let me do that.

Ooooor - I should just start my own tourney. Where everyone is accepted, with swears, pot, ciggies, virginity, the olds and the youngs alike.

i like the green deck personally im not toobig of a player nor good at all but i enjoy it ! for sure love the game!

Meh, I'm quite certain I don't even play by the "proper" rules. We just play for funs.

The best is a friend's boyf used to play magic when he was little, and he dug his cards out of his parents garage last time he was at home. He had a magic cards binder, with original 8-year old boy MTG artwork on the cover. It was amazing!

I axed you if you wanted me to play with you one time I think in PM. If you are down, shoot me your handle, and we'll own some fools. I'm pretty awesome at any strategy game.

um....handle? I play with the cards that you put in your hands...

I DO have an app though - on the pad - would that work?

Also - sorry aboot the forgetsies - I was pretty hazy for that first month here...

Like THIS whole thread, for example...I remember - but more like remembering a dream than anything that actually happened...



You met me at a Very strange time in my life...

One of the writers I particularly enjoy (Brandon Sanderson) is a Magic player and I see him talk about it all the time. He tends to play with his fans at all the Cons he attends. It has peaked my interest. I also started reading a newer series last year by Brent Weeks where he somewhat institutes something similar to Magic in the books that comes off very well and once again peaked my interest. Looks like it can be a lot of fun.

It really is! My boyf bought me some cards last year, and I had never played before. I am LOVING IT.

Actually got a game for my ipad first, it's called "MTG 2014" or something. It's a fun way to learn.

It's super nerdy - and therefore it's just AWESOME. haha

I used to play a lot of Magic in high school, used to have a very vintage deck of cards but like most of my stuff I brought to school, they were stolen. I still have a deck sitting around somewhere... I also played the online version on Xbox but got a little bored with it.
