Job gives me "mobile pass" for logging onto the company's network while I'll be at a training in our client's offices. I test it beforehand from home. Doesn't work even after reading the FAQ, applying it, doublechecking what I need to do. I'll have to flip some tables tomorrow if I want that shit to work before I go away. >>
Also for whoever asked me about Rogue, it went a bit better. Dancing Swords basically didn't do much because they tend to die as soon as I drop them, often trading 1 for 1 (and they draw a card), so I guess it's a gain tempo-wise because they can't touch the rest of the board, but otherwise a loss. Not a fan of it. I had more success after the post, but it had to do with better draws overall, playing against more aggro decks (no full on taunt druid and only one SoJ autoloss Paladin), and a bit of going more aggro and playing my cold bloods better.
On another note, Hunter is the worst metastased cancer I've seen. Holy shit how can a class with such stupidly powerful combo (the only thing that's stronger is Shadowstep+Leroy) also sport cards with such high value individually? Of course having to deal with legendaries and epics when I barely have any myself doesn't help, but that secrets Hunter deck is such pure cancer to play against. And it's not like it requires much from the guy. + Show Spoiler +They even use snake trap and misdirection when they have them? I guess why not, since that shit is going to be 100% free anyway. Such fucking cancer. And more epics.
So I switch to Rogue to try and make them taste their own medicine, and... first opponent I get is a goddamn fucking druid. I'm done. The fucking RNG just won't let me off the hook tonight.
Rank 15 100% cancer so far. I reach 14 by beating warlocks, twice, and the other 8 opponents are cancer hunters. More than half hadd Leroy, a quarter had King Crush, they all played the cancer secret deck without exception. I don't think it's possible to have a bad draw based on the deck list, unless you somehow draw Leroy and both Highmane after you mulligan. The combo of basically free cards, super cheap combos, and extremely high value (like Highmane) means you're almost always going to be able to play on curve, and because it's Hunter you have a response to absolutely anything built in. That's retarded to play against, requires a fuckton more finesse than to play it, is uninteractive as fuck because of the nature of Mad Scientist and Hunter's secrets (Mage would be too if they could run such a deck). Wasn't that game supposed to be fun?

I just got an email from Facebook being like "you have 4 new notifications and 3 event invites..." Is my life so pitiful that a few notifications is worth sending an email about? Your life can't be pitiful after witnessing the glory that is Wave's face. It is just simply too magnificent.
In other news, Bacon and Cheese Scones are very tasty. Especially when one is hungry.

Savory Scones are always a good choice. I'd recommend a cheddar and gravy scone, i use vegetarian gravy ofc but you guys could add real gravy with no downsides. just layer the gravy (cold) into the dough as you fold it and each bite will have a ribbon of gravy and some cheddar!
In other news. this computer is probably bound for death within a week. had to ask parents for money to replace it + get rent paid. The call was far better than i expected.

the true god of scones is blackcurrant. raisin is its half-mortal offspring.

Hopefully things turn out well for you. Sorry to hear that you've been going through some tough times, but I'm here if you want someone to talk to.

I'm not very good at connecting with people on this thread.

Frudgey. Chips. Friday night, Bo7, 6:00 PST. We'll play on older maps so that you guys actually know what you're playing on. If you wanna cast, PM me and I'll figure it out and add it to the thread I'm making. Sound good? Hype hype?

As for the number of games, I'm going to let Shelke decide. Up to him to see how many times he wishes to crush me beneath my foot.
If the games are close then a Bo7 will be better, although a Bo3 or Bo5 would be "safer" so that they're less boring, if that happens. I'm hoping that these games will be exciting and you'll guys pay for the whole seat but only need the edge. Of course, if you guys find slaughter to be fun then a Bo7 is just fine.
Again, Shelke's discretion. Friday night is good for me though. Also who's going to pick the maps? I don't think Shelke or I should pick the maps because we're going to pick the ones that we're good at.

I can pick the maps, that part is easy.

I was hoping for a BO9 personally. But yeah, if you guys don't want to play that many games BO7 imo. Dw, if it gets too boring I'll start browsing /r/kemonomimi during games for the viewers

I think there should be a pool of maps that can be picked from. Loser picks - a player cannot pick a map that they have already won on, but they can pick one they lost on for those salty runbacks.
