    Used to be. You interested in buying any cards? smile.gif


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,379 ✭✭✭Mills


    I've played quite a bit of Magic the gathering in game form for the PC, but the way you have to go out and actually buy cards would put me off, I'd prefer a game where everyone has a level playing field, as opposed to being able to buy an advantage.

    Oh and if you're interested there are RPG events where a lot of Magic is played that also have a computer games area run by folk from here, DubLAN and the TrinLANs pring to mind. You could kill 2 birds with one stone at some of these, Magic and Quake/CS/whatever in the same place smile.gif

    I think you'll find that it was I, in fact, that got you, Mr Tilmitt.

    Transferring to the Trolls board. It could do with a genuine troll for once.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 392 ✭✭Skyclad


    wasnt this a relatively intelligent post to begin with?

    If you were going to sell a troll card the least you could have done was get a fricking troll card frown.gif

    I play the real card game, the computer game is one of the worst pieces of software to be released since Windows...

    Enough rambling, if your interested in playing the game, contact me

    Ah leds, you're right, I shouldn't have moved it to trolls. Humour would be more appropriate as this post has given me a lot of laughs.

    Just to explain a few things:
    The Pendril Flux is a running joke from DubLan where we mocked the Magic the Gathering people (because they seemed to have less life than us nerds that spend so much time on the net.)

    A troll in netspeak is the art of baiting people into a certain response. You've been framed is the nearest "real world" equivilant.

    This board (trolls) should really have been called Spam.

    But I've had my fun, all future MtG posts will be untouched. (losers :P )

    I enjoy playing magic as much as I do playing CS/QW, and overall it nets me at least 3-4 grand a year in cash and prizes. I have travelled to America multiple times, England, France, Spain, Italy, Germany and Japan to name just a few places, which is I gather further then youve ever been from your computer screen to play a game.

    I also happen to have run trinLAN for the last 2 years, and with this kind of abuse from a moderator who thinks he should have some power to decide what other people should be interested in, I see no reason to run a third. Its a lot less stress for me, and Ill still enjoy the weekend just as much as always.

    It's a somewhat long running joke from a LAN a couple of years ago. Pendrell Flux and School of Pirahna always win!!!11

    I live in North County Dublin... so where can I play around here - or in the city?

    "Once they've marked you!" starke said "the world is made of glass"


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 392 ✭✭Skyclad


    Places to play in Dublin:

    Tuesday nights in Cafe Mocha near stevens green shopping center - top floor. 7-10ish

    Rest of the time: Trinity games society rooms in Goldsmith hall - though this is a bit slower now due to the summer and it generally closes before 6pm.

    Various PTQ and prereleases from time to time.

    If you want to get involved theres an Irish magic mailing list in egroups, its low enough traffic and gives details of all teh events going on around teh country.

    Hi, i see this thread is quite old and wonder if people will see my reply as a new search. I learned to play MTG in the U.S. when I was in my 30's but now am early 40's.

    I do not think it would be a good idea with other young players so is there anyone at least 20's or older who like the game and, if so, wanna meet up? Would be great if even 3 or 4 of us.

    In the meantime I have two playstation accounts and Wizards of the Coast has theplaneswalkers edition on PS3 (u have to buy from an USA username but anyone can make one-the game in U.S. PSN store). I have the names usabear1968 and skerriesbear to play through the network. I would like to play live as well. I live in between Drogheda and Dundalk but am happy to come into city centre Dublin if an adults game were to be played.

    Please get back to me.
