Wait, there's an Open Discussion board? Where?

How can this message board be taken seriously if even the most mature members such as YMT don't know about the Open Discussion forum?!

Yes, but there's another hidden board that you find out about only when you've joined OD. And this one requires maturity and "protection cards".

Frankly, it can be taken seriously because of the lack of spam on the OD which, IMO, is refreshing.

Allowable? Who are you kidding? Haven't you noticed that Crustpope hasn't posted in a while? That's because an unmarked van pulled up next to him while he was walking. Three masked men jumped out of the van, put a dark hood over his head and dragged him into the van. He has not been seen since.

One of the masked men was not wearing pants.

i believe its for members 18 and older. and no, you dont get in automatically based on the age in your profile.
Oh yeah? Well, I started my own secret section of the boards only for cool people, and you're not invited!

Dude, this new section is awesome! Everyone on it just got free ice cream vouchers for Baskin Robins!

Ok, i may have to because the spam content of this thread is getting a bit too much.

Yes, Eric "I was't wearing any pants when I kidnapped crustpope" Largent was one of the assailants. I dont know who the other two were but one had large hands and smelled of herring and the other was a cheeky lad with orange hair sticking out from behind the ski mask.

I got away by boring them to death when I began to talk about this thread

They're not done yet. They'll be back. This could be a recurring problem, so it may be best for you to stay off the highway.

Pants, however, are still optional.

Gosh I just love being ignored so....

I will say it once more every thing in that petition is how it is! Most of the time.

Quote from: crustpope on May 21, 2010, 01:06:28 PM

I have a few suggestions for Redemption.

1. Redemption needs a Ruling Council (aka PTB). These people need to be clearly identified (an given a formal and official position) and posted so that any ruling questions can be sent to them. To often on these boards people make decisons based on ruling they believe to be true only to find out that they are not at a later date.

We do. Brian and Sir nobody and the play testers.

Quote from: crustpope on May 21, 2010, 01:06:28 PM

a) All major ruling changes will be announced before Nationals and will take effect following nationals for the next tournament season.
b) Emergency Rulings can be used but they are reserved only for game breaking combinations that are a result of unanticipated card combinations that would most likely involve previously released cards as they are integrated with the newest set. These Emergency rulings can be made before the start of MAJOR tournament season. (Major tournament season is defined as beginning with the first state tournement and ending at Nationals)
c) Decks during the Major tournament season can only be undone by a misunderstanding on the part of the deck owner of how the rules work. No erattas should be made to change the way a card is played until after Nationals.

I thought it was this way....

Minister Polarius · « **Reply #45 on:** May 22, 2010, 12:00:32 AM »

You were ignored because you were being silly. But since you insist on acknowledgment:

1. Sir Nobody and the Playtesters do not have rubber-stamp powers.
2. It's Bryon
3. It's Bryon, Rob, and Mike
4. Thought wrong. If it was that way, why would be be making a post asking for it to be that way?
6. An ellipsis has three periods, not four.
7. "Brian and Sir nobody and the play testers" is not a sentence. The preceding period should have been a colon for it to be remotely correct.
8. Both words are capitalized in "Sir Nobody."
9. There is no five. Woah, blew your mind!

Even if it were this way...who are these playtesters? This is some nebulous term to include a group of people who few people can identify. I cant tell you all the playtesters and I have been playing since 2004. In fact, I can guess on several of them but I only knew 2 of them and one of them has since died. Only once have I been involved in a game that had playtest cards. it was fun and I got spanked but we need a group of people to focus on ruling, establishing erattas, and focusing on these details and we should all know who they are so that we can go to them if we have a problem that needs an official ruling on it. The only person I know who are in this group for a fact are Rob, Bryon and Mike, Mike is never on, Rob is easy to get a hold of but he never makes rulings publicly, only Bryon makes rulings publicly, but even he misses things...like the Highway ruling which was somethign that should have been done along time ago.

You obvioiusly thought wrong if we are having this discussion. Decks have been nerfed at Nats before and obviously this highway ruling has come in the middle of major tournaments.

Master KChief · « **Reply #48 on:** May 22, 2010, 08:02:23 AM »

none of the playtesters outside of bryon and co. can make official rulings, so that is a moot point.

I can only think of one (infamous) instance of a rule being changed on the floor at Nats to nerf a deck, and that was a number of years ago. Granted I wasn't judging the last two so it's not an ironclad statement, but I don't think this is the kind of thing that can be painted as a regular occurrence.
