ian if I am ever in NYC I will bring a couple of decks! I will be in the Hudson Valley area for a coupla days over Thanksgiving week but not in the city, alas. also let me know if you need xerox copies of rules or maps or shit. I don't think I ever played with the region cards, that was an optional thing but I still have a lot of them because they came with the expansion sets.
When I first got those cards ('96 I think) I would set up opposing sets and play a game by myself to study the interactions. My girlfriend at the time came home one day...
her: "You know how I can tell you're really into this?
me: "Uh.. no."
her: "Because you don't have any music on"

i played magic: the gathering for like five hours yesterday :/
― bell_labs, Monday, 15 October 2007 15:34 (sixteen years ago) link
it was not for like five hours it was really only like three cuz we didn't get back from brunch until at least 2.
i totally upgraded the blue/black deck and the green deck last night.
― ian, Monday, 15 October 2007 16:11 (sixteen years ago) link
jesus...this takes me back. I played Magic fucking constantly from age 14 or so till I was around 18. In the end I sold loads of my cards and recouped a certain amount of the money I'd spent over the years.
I remember we used to have huge "melees" that would go on till 4 or 5 in the morning.
how embarassing. it was a good game though!

I LIKE MYTHOS. i need to rework the two New England-based decks, though. There are some extraneous cards, since i took out the Seeking Everlasting Life II adventure.

with all the cheap cards i will now have, i will make you two decks and send them to you via post in exchange for something of equal value (i.e. nearly worthless.)

― max, Monday, October 8, 2007 1:34 PM
*speaks through time*
max did you ever play this? this is one of only 2 ILX references to legend of the five rings. a friend of mine is about to start up a L5R campaign and invited me to join. i'm trying to figure out whether it will be fun enough to outweigh the hassle/detachment of playing with them remotely.
