Holiday Postcard and Gwyned takes the Clan reins !

Holiday Postcard

This will be my last post before a long vacation by the sea, very far from the internet.

I'm sending you a postcard of the place we're travelling to, Google Earth it if interested, this destination is unique ! Yeah, Britain, Brittany as you like. The perfect place for an archaeologist to get some rest after a hard year at work.

Sea shore, forests, Simic holidays FTW !
I will be back in the beggining of August and try to install that BETA monster so  I can get back in touch with you all.


Gwyned takes the Clan reins !

The Clan needs to keep on recruiting and being active while I am at rest. Big Thanks to Gwyned, he gently accepted my proposal to take on the clan leadership for the three weeks to come, and maybe more if I am forced to change my PC in order to have "Shiny Beta" running during the summer.
Thanks to him for setting up the Multicolor Mayhem League too, this was a lot of fun. Not only saying this because I won the event versus VGFactor88 in the final, all matches were great. Blink of an eye to DrChris who timed out because of ...... Beta in the semi final, while I think he got game. Timed match is part of the rules, Beta being slower than V3 is not. If Beta is slow for americans, what will that be for europeans, I really wonder now...

So if you're willing to join the Standard Pauper Players Clan, please get in touch with Gwyned and ask for an invite.

I wish you all a sunny summer time and nice holidays if you have any scheduled soon, see you when i'm back.

Until then, Have fun !!

Back to the Wilds!!!

I don't know about anyone else, but I am so darned excited to see this card spoiled for M15 today:
Hooray!  Mana fetch returns to the common slot!
I have always been a fan of this card, even when it's called terramorphic expanse :D
This will make splashing extra colors & balancing manabases easier, and with the gates rotating soon I'm guessing these will be an automatic four-of in any stack running more than 1 color.
 
On a non-standard pauper note, I was also excited to see this make the reprint:
I've been wanting to get a playset of these for classic pauper, but have lived without because of their price.  Since being spoiled the average price of the Darksteel printing has already dropped by half.  I would expect that the price should fall a little more, or I will buy the M15 version if they are cheaper.
 
What's everyone else excited to see in M15?.
