(Hi, I'm new here. So, how's this place for discussing? I intend to answer that question. >:3)

Is anyone else disappointed by the Magic sponsor item? There are so many awesome things they could've done, but instead they went with a mana symbol over the face and a skull that looks stupid, both of which take up a handheld slot. sad

My idea: one item, five poses. Each one is a well-known spell from one colour. Doesn't even have to be an actual card cycle. (Giant Growth wouldn't really work anyway.)

ITT Magic nerdiness?

I'd like to thank you Cheese, because I totally forgot to do that quiz until now. xD <3

Yeah it sucks. I've been disappointed in items for a while now though. Eh, hopefully they'll get better with the next quest.

I wish we had a Harry Potter quest! D':

I'll tell you something lovely...

When that item came out... and a thread was made about it.. I mentioned what I predicted your feelings would be. I predicted CORRECTLY.

points, plz.

I mentioned this before in the GCD, but I'll reiterate it here.

I think that they wasted so much potential with the M:TG sponsor item.

M:TG has so much amazing imagery to work with and I just feel that they could have done so much better on the sponsor/promotional item.

I am very pleased that Gaia is doing a M:TG promotion event, because it helps steer us away from mainstream and get a little back to the site's roots. I just want to be able to log on one day and see Gaia as a great place for users to nerd it up and geek it out without being criticized by people who seem to think Gaia is the Internet's new Myspace. ):

So yeeah.. The M:TG promotional item is one that is going to easily be ignored because it's just a little bleeh.. It's sad. I hope Gaia will do further installments of this promotion and release a few more items, like they did with Nancy Drew and Tsubasa. Maybe if the awesomeness factor goes up on items like this, it will cause people who wouldn't normally play M:TG or similar "games" to do so. Which is really the point afterall, so I don't see why they didn't beef up the quality of the item.

Oh well, no use crying over it I guess.

Thats also what this guild stands for, a place for people like us.

So we have a place to go and be as nerdy, geeky, and dumb as we want.

Even a magic the gathering card that you could hold would of been better than what we got.
