    I don't think I've ever met a malicious or corrupt judge. Maybe I've gotten lucky, but to say that judges make calls based on allegiance is completely unfounded. Why should they? They're players. Do...

    Re: Magic - the Cheatering

    We've always joked about doing something like this. If your record is like 1-5, just shuffle up powered MUD or throw Gush into a deck and be like "but, judge, I've been playing this all day with no...

    Or Bertoncini cheating twice in the same game with Brainstorm after he had already won.

    Re: Magic - the Cheatering

    Fair enough. I just used "witch hunt" because of the reference to Jared. Either way, it did only come about because we went on a bandwagon crusade/mission/campaign to weed out all wrongdoers.

    Trying to resolve an Ancestral Recall is pretty scummy, but what still gets me most about that video is the "draw four" Brainstorm after he'd already resolved the Jin-Gitaxias. Continuing to cheat...
