Magic?

I can understand 3, 4 and 6. 5 surprises me a little because there are some badass games outside of poker that are pretty fun to play like bridge or 500. 1 is just wrong, man! I find your lack of faith disturbing At least Empire Strikes Back is leagues above geekdom and must be seen for movie's sake, and New Hope is worth it for Harrison Ford if anything.

Jen, I laughed at the edit. When people call out my name I still answer "yes my lord" or "what do you want" in those voices from time to time, and I still say "for the alliance" in that ridiculous elfish voice when a friend asks me to do something stupid.

Definitely the first three movies (ie 4,5 and 6) are good movies. Cub you really should watch them at some point (though it's quite cool saying you've never seen them too), the middle one being the best, but you really have to have watched 4 to appreciate 5 I think.

Can't blame Jen at all about MMRPG or however you spell them. You can lose your life (and girlfriend) playing them. My best mate and I got so engrossed in Ultima Online about 10 years ago. Brilliant fun at the time, but glad it's something in the past. I still think spells in my head sometimes, like how great it would be to just teleport home after work every day.

Zug-zug! I'm not that kind of orc!

I played a lot of Magic up until mid-1999, and had a nice white deck, full of flying and some decent artifacts, such as the eculeum duo.
Also, my friends disdained Sentinel (the 1/* artifact, where * = attacker's power +1), but it stopped everything!

I still miss playing it, but the rules changed too much for me to follow.

"Join the army, they said..."
(with a crescendo)"see the world, they said..."
"I'd rather be sailing".

p.s.: I played a lot (and still do) warcraft 2, and play warcraft 3 on occasion, but war3 was too fast to stop and click until everyone said their last lines, so I listened to them on worldedit. I think my favourite is the Dreadlord's talk show.

Can you make me a Goblin and Send it so I can put it out front... I've always wanted a Lawn Jockey...

That's impressive Cub!

As for magic, I used to play like crazy when i was a teenager but kinda dropped out for years. My friends are into it though, so now and then i buy a pre-made and have a few games. I like the red/green decks.
