Magic News & Notes

Tuesday, June 5, 2001

We added another set of prices to our M:TG Price Guide.  Today it is Fallen Empires.  That's eight sets of cards we now have prices for: Alpha, Beta, Unlimited, Revised, 4th, 5th, The Dark, & Fallen Empires.  Tomorrow, we'll try to pop in Ice Age Prices for you.

     Spent all of yesterday on planes - the reason for no updates.  Sorry.  Had to go cross country, and if you have ever tried connecting to the internet from a plane to update, you'll hate the $4.99 a minute they charge.  I did too, so there was no chance. :)  Let's see what we have for ya today.

  • Elvish P. has an article about Spiritmonger for us.  Have a look at what most people are calling the most dominant creature since Blastoderm.
  • Hydramon's History Lesson is back from it's long absence with, It's Like A Calzone, a history of Ponza.
  • We also added prices for "The Dark" Expansion to our M:TG Price Guide.

Saturday, June 2, 2001

     Spike got in his article for Random Beatings.  Today, Spike talks about Ways To Deal Witrh Spiritmonger.

Friday, June 1, 2001

     I'm sorry the update is so late today.  My life has been one emotional roller coaster the last week.  Anyone who knows me personally knows what is going on.  Sorry to everyone for that.  I will get to the updates now.

Thursday, May 31, 2001

     You know, with my weird sleep schedule lately, you'd think I might be smart enough to get my updating done at a time other than 4 in the morning.  Oh well, I wanted to fall asleep and do it in the morning, but you need an update, right?  Well, here it comes!

  • Motumbo is back with his Pre-Nationals 2001 article, prediciting what he thinks will be seen there.
  • Jeff Zandi makes his Pojo debut with a monster of an article, detailing the Apocalypse Commons  this is an excellent read.

As a side note, but Jeff and Motumbo are becoming regular columnists here at Pojo - just wanted to let you know this since, well, it's 4am, and I am way too tired to set it up tonight.  When I wake up, I have gotten a bunch of articles, like ones from the Apocalypse Pre-Release, and I'll see what I can get posted for you.

Wednesday, May 30, 2001

     Have any of you seen "The Paper"?  It's a movie starring Michael Keaton and Glenn Close, I think circa 1994 or something like that.  If you haven't, I recommend it.  Anyway, the concept of the movie deals with that your whole world can change in just 24 hours.  Well, mine did.  I have gone from low devotion to high devotion to Magic.  There is a lot of stuff going on, but I don't want to use the site as my personal diary.  Let's get onto the beef!

I'll try to get more up later in the day, so check back!

Tuesday, May 29, 2001

     I've always considered the Pojo community like a family, so let me come clean with you.  I have some real personal things going on in my life right now.  I'm not killing my devotion to Magic, but it is going to take a back burner right now.  So, if the site doesn't get updated real well over the next few days, I apologize in advance.  Regular updates will start again as soon as I have a few things straightened out - hopefully soon.   Life is hard sometimes - I think you can all relate.  We have one thing for you today:

Sunday, May 27, 2001

     Sorry for the lack of an update yesterday.  I was at the prerelease the entire day.  I'll be writing up an experience report over it later, as there were quite a few things I was unhappy with.  Anyone else who wants to write a report over their prerelease, I encourage you to send it to TournamentReports@pojo.com and we'll get them posted ASAP.

There was an error on the Tournament Reports page, which is now fixed.  Thanks to everyone who reported it.  

Friday, May 25, 2001 (Evening Edition)

     Good luck to everyone at the prerelease tomorrow.  I wanted to throw out one more thing for you for today!

  • Alden Taint gives us Part 2 of his listing of post-Apocalypse Type 2 decks.  Have a look.

Friday, May 25, 2001

     One day away.  One day until the set is released.  So what do we have?  MORE APOCALYPSE!!!!  That and some other mixed articles.

More to come later...don't want to overload you with too much!

Thursday, May 24, 2001 (Evening Edition)

     I promised a second update today, and here we go.  I have more articles, including good Apocalypse-related content for you.

  • Brian "Motumbo" Augustine is back with another good article.  Drafting With Apocalypse is Brian's look at the new limited format an talk about why this can be a good thing instead of it being a seemingly bad format.
  • Alden Taint looks at some Apocalypse Decks in the new t2 environment and offers up 3 different decks for your consideration.
  • Sean Reusing has a new B/G Deck with Apocalypse he thinks we should have a look at.

     As a final note, I need to fix an earlier statement - the prerelease card is in Sanskrit, not Hindi as previously announced.  Thanks!

Thursday, May 24, 2001

     Have we ever mentioned we have the best readers there are?  Well, we're mentioning it now.  Ask for strategy, and the readers produce.  Here is what we're kickin' around today!

I think that is plenty of stuff for now.  We'll pick through and try to find some more stuff for later in the day, so stop back by!

Wednesday, May 23, 2001

     With the prerelease only 3 days away, the speculation about Apocalypse is picking up more and more.  Some think it's going to be good, others think it'll just be another blow-off set.  What do you think?  We want your opinions and strategies for the new set!  Write to me  and submit your article so we can post it here on the site!

Tuesday, May 22, 2001

     We have a couple of good articles up for you today, so let's have a look!

Monday, May 21, 2001 (Evening Edition)

     Just wanted to show you the prerelease card...have a look!  For those wondering, the language is Hindi.  The card is Fungal Shambler.  Check out the spoiler for what is and everything else do! The spoilers, for everyone's reference, are here:

We need Apocalypse strategy articles!  Please send them to MagicWebmaster@pojo.com.  We'd love to post it!

Monday, May 21, 2001

     No talk today, just action.

Enjoy!

Sunday, May 20, 2001

     We here at Pojo don't take weekends off.  If you're a Magic player 7 days a week, then we're here for you seven days a week.  Here's what's on tap for today!

  • DeQuan gives us another Report from the latest Type 2 Cash Tournament down at Game Closet.
  • Along with that, DeQuan gives us a bonus Dragon's Den where he discusses one of the interesting decks from his cash tournament, The Godfather.
  • Rama Llama Comics sent in the decklists from their latest Type 2 Tournament as well.

Saturday, May 19, 2001

     You know, we look at yesterday's announcement and laugh - hard.  Yesterday, you made 1,600 hits look like nothing, well over doubling it at just over 3,500 hits.  We are speechless, humbled, and very grateful.  We want to hear what you have to think about this site.  What you do and don't like.  Write us at MagicWebmaster@pojo.com and give us your opinions - they are very helpful.

     Well, you'll find weekends are quite slow for us, as is the rest of the community.  Everyone is off playing tournaments and everything else, so we try to limit the weekend content some as to not overload you.  That doesn't mean we stop, though:

  • The Pojo tradition, Random Beatings is here on Saturday.  Spike has reviewed Apocalypse, and is giving us his thoughts on the new set.  As always, an entertaining read.
  • The Tournament Reports page got a facelift.  We've divided the reports up by using Mana symbols, making it easier to find the decks you're looking for.
  • Our MTG Card Price Guide has been updated to include four sets now:  Alpha, Beta, Unlimited and Revised.  We're be adding more sets next week.
