Magic the Gathering

    Paul and Chris got me into Magic, so I now start my journey into aquiring more cards to make more decks.  I've compiled a few things that help me keep things organized.  That and it kept me busy for a whole day.

Updates:

  • Wednesday, Mar. 31, 2004: Bought 2 more  Mirrodin expansion packs (+75, x2) today.  I also bought some some card sleeves for my Mirrodin foil cards.  Updated my progress on my Myr deck, too.
  • Monday, Mar. 29, 2004: Played a few rounds of Magic against Paul, Chris, and Josh.  Then Paul and I played against each other.  I used my Goblin deck, which is pretty much my the only deck I have assembled.  I'm not good at making decks, other then my Myr pet-project.
  • Sunday, Mar. 28, 2004: Decided that I wanted to collect all the Mirrodin Foil cards, today.  Then went to Pegasus Games to purchase more cards with Josh, Chris, and Paul.  Paul got in his deck an $80 Mirrodin Foil, the most expensive foil in the whole series.  He's gonna sell it to me for $10.  Will add a page on later siting my Mirrodin progress.  Played several games against Paul, Chris, & Josh.  Me and Paul played late into the next day.
  • Saturday, Mar. 27, 2004: Went shopping around Madison looking at the places that sell Magic cards.  Left a list for a price check on 'sliver' cards at Pegasus Games.  Will pick up later.  Decided to look into completing my official Artifact Deck (Myr).  The idea was created by Daniel Blount.  It's a work in progress, it will take about $25 to complete.  I also bought 2  Mirrodin expansion packs (+75, x2).  Then updated my card inventory.  Swung back to Pegasus Games to buy some card containers.  I got 1 & ordered 5 more which I'll pick up later.
  • Thursday, Mar. 25, 2004: Played a game against Josh, Paul, and Chris.  Didn't win, but I took out Josh before I died.  Played against Paul a couple of times.  I think I won both times.  I used my premade deck (Goblin Mob).  I then slapped together another artifact deck that I never used.  Took it apart later.
  • Wednesday, Mar. 17, 2004: After work, I swung over to Pegasus to get my 3 additional Storage Matrix cards and then bought an additional  Scourge 'Goblin Mob' deck.
  • Monday, Mar. 15, 2004: Played against Paul, Josh, & Paul.  Lost mostly ever game, but I did play one game where I got 100 life.  Setting the highest score in game history (at least in our group, there are probably other losers out there who have played a game and got much more).  Also bought 2 more decks ('Speed Scorch' & 'Sacrificial Bam') and 2 more boosters.  Then I bought my first single card (Storage Matrix)
  • Monday, Mar. 8, 2004: Played several games of Magic against Paul, Chris, Little Dude, and Josh.  Won only 1 game because I teamed up with 2 other players.  Lost all others.  Played mostly with Paul's land destruction deck.  Quickly completed my Myr deck, tested it out a couple of times with Paul.  Needs tweeking.  Paul gave me a couple more cards.
  • Saturday, Mar. 6, 2004: Recieved 5 more cards from Chris (slivers and myr) and 2 more from Paul.  Played a game against Paul and lost.
  • Wednesday, Mar. 3, 2004: Played a couple games against Paul, who gave me 9 more cards (1 black, 8 green).  Redid my Green / White deck.  Got my ass kicked in every game we played.
  • Monday, Mar. 1, 2004: Purchased 3 boosters: Nemesis, Onslaught, & Odyssey.  Also Paul and Chris gave me some cards.  Didn't win a single game I played this night.
  • Tuesday, Feb. 24, 2004: Started website dedicated to My Magic Cards.
  • Monday, Feb. 23, 2004: Played first game of Magic with new deck, purchased more cards.  Core Set (8) 'Explusion' & 'Sky Slam' decks,  Mirroden 15 card booster.
  • Thursday, Feb. 19, 2004: Played my first game with my first deck.
  • Wednesday, Feb. 18, 2004: With Paul's help, made first deck (Green / White).
  • Tuesday, Feb. 17, 2004: Bought first cards.  Darksteel - 'Swarm & Slam' deck,  Mirrodin - 75 additional card deck,  Scourge 15 card booster, Legions 15 card booster,  Core Set (8) 15 card booster.

    A page that Paul found that details rules on certain cards when they come into question.
    Kard Kastle
    Chris told me about this website.  It tells you how much Magic Cards are worth.
