It surprises me that the things that piss you off about Magic amused me. I had an incredible meta game deck at a PTQ in Costa Mesa one year. I was playing in the finals when I heard a kid behind me whisper, "Why is he playing with Flesh Reaver?" His friend responded, "He hasn't lost a game all day." I loled.

You're older than I thought you were.

It's a good game. Lots of complexity, just a few hiccups in game mechanics.

The theft happens because players get so focused on the game and so many players are carrying valuable cards around with them.

I agree, I still don't think it's an excuse for the behavior though.

I don't understand why you can't just enjoy anime without having such a chip about it.

Less of a chip on my shoulder more of enjoying the fuck out of the literal freakouts people on these forums have about even the mention of it. I like to use it as an excuse to let my inner troll run wild.

In all honesty I'd rather take it easy, but when in Rome...

I realized that I should clarify my comment about theft: imagine how much theft there would be at a comic or anime con if half the attendees were carrying backpacks with hundreds or thousands of dollars worth of collectibles with a very liquid market. The theft is a symptom of the value, not the players. One or two good thieves can make it seem like a whole big tournament is corrupt.

Fuck anyone with a Platinum Angel, that's all I gotta say about magic.

As someone who is a sperglord IRL, I'd have to say anime. I don't into anime myself, though. My area of exspergtise is gaming.

I play magic fairly often with pals, have never been to a tourney though, im not that serious about it.
