Due to the lack of dwarves in Lorwyn, as well as the printing of a strictly better Portent, I'll be quitting Magic and Legacy forever, forever here being defined as a period of not less than two months.

You stay class, Baltimore.

So your going to take a hiatus on us then?

But we love your sarcastic bantering and flaming at inexperienced individuals.

Why quit when we made you a fan club on myspace and facebook?

Basic Training & AIT, genius. Gotta respect the man for stepping up & serving.

Not necessarily, but I wish you the best Jack.

Becuase you havent publicly bitched yet, like IBA.

I reserve my judgement until I see 'the card that cares about Goats'.
I really want to know if Zodiac Goat will become chase.

And thus, the last reason to play Solidarity leaves the metagame...

Lawl, he's only quitting cause he can't play MTG at basic training. Well he probably could but he'd be jumped and made fun of by everyone else like he was in middle school.

When do you actually ship out Jack?

That does mean you've met all the important people on the forum from now on.
See? Silver lining baby!

Good luck with basic. I have already gone down that route and served my time.

Good Luck. I'll be staying as Merforks are back in the game.

Try and get Calosso deported if at all possible by citing him as a national security risk or some such.


Good Luck. I'll be staying as Merforks are back in the game.
I was a big fan of Spoonfolk from the Kamigawa block myself.

Calosso, stop trying to pretend that anyone will ever care about anything you say or do. It will raise the quality of life on The Source tremendously.

He's totally going to give them to me. Which of us has won more games with Gigapede? I think the answer is obvious.

I believe the answer is none of you, because seriously who wins games with gigapede.

Because the world is a cruel place where injustice and whimsy reign supreme.

Get it? Poop. Funny.

Last word was that he was still in the process of being processed.

Jack seems kinda authority-adverse, I wonder how well he's going to do with "break you and remold you" methods of basic training...

If you get the chance to read this: I wish you well! You're in for a strange trip.

Apparently Jack is mostly standing around and being surrounded by yelling drill-sergeants. He says that the former is much more difficult than the latter.

yeah, its not really nearly as bad as the movies make it out to be. yeah, they yell alot, but it loses its effect pretty quickly, and as long as you bust your ass and don't be the guy who always messes up, you'll skate through just fine.

You're worried about Jack? BAH! I'm worried about the Drill Sergeants. Jack will have each one involved in a 5 hour argument, bogged down in semi-relevant analogies, and swamped in links to wikipedia. It may be the first time in recorded USA military history in which a Drill Sergeant loses an argument.

I don't know why, but I would pay money to see that.

You have the Army confused with the Internet, you can get away with that sort of idiocy on the Internet, cuz what is anyone actually gonna do? In the Army you will be conducting your asshole arguments with your toothbrush as you clean the latrine or your dishrag or....fill in the blank with punishment of choice. I respect his decision to serve & I hope the experience is a positive one, but you people are....special...if you think that the level of discourse considered amusing & appropriate here & elsewhere on the RetardWeb has any bearing on real world heirarchical situations. Jack will adjust or Jack will get 'moderated' in a way quite shocking to the comfortably middle classed. Since Jack is both intelligent & strongwilled he can adjust, the question is will he? Time will tell.

PS I would like qualification on what Bardo meant by not necessarily respecting the decision to serve...that seemed odd. I will Stifle my knee-jerk response until I more fully understand the statement. Thx.

Stupid Bardo. Always taking the high road and making the old mods look bad. /Sigh. Now I have to go learn by example.

4serios. I was really looking forward to this turning into a "10 million reasons not to join a military branch at this time" Debate.

Yeah, apparently Drill Seargeants just change the subject if they turn out to be wrong about something. Well, the nicer ones do that. Others give you all night fire guard or ask you about various acts you might like to perform on farm animals. But, really, it's not as bad as the movies make it out to be.

Anyway, graduating on Tuesday. Probably won't have computer access again after today until Wed/Thurs, at the soonest- they're letting us hit up the local in-base mall for our last Sunday here.

I just want to note that Godzilla is officially a bitch for saying he was going to send letters/updates on Magic shite and then not doing it. Whore.
