I tried to learn probably 5 different times . built decks from rare cards with lots of power and mana..

still had my ass handed to me

That sounds like a recipe for disaster. Rare for starters =/= good. It often = complicated. Second and more importantly lots of mana doesn't mean proper mix. I'll have to make a note to teach you if I ever let you drag me into pretending to shoot at the good guys in the war for my ancestors.

The last card game I was really good at was pokemon. Shit the K B toys in the area held weekly tournaments where every so many wins you got a badge. that was like the coolest shit ever when i was 10. I think I had 3 or 4 gym badges when they stopped the tourneys.

 

[Sean Renaud]

If you can handle Pokemon you can handle Magic. Pokemon is if anything a little more complicated from what I remember. But I only played it a bit because my brother was into it. When I was a kid my parents weren't going to pay for another money sink and by the time I had my own money I wasn't really willing to split my money either. So I dedicated to Magic.

 

[CandiCame]

Congrats on teaching the little brother Candi. Now make sprites! You've been lazy all day!

What do you want me to make? I need the practice.

Also, Pokemon is a better card game than Magic, I think Wizards of the Coast makes them both. If you can play Pokemon, you can play Magic. I kind of suck at Magic because I've been out of the game for so long. The reason I wanted to teach the youngun to play is because we got free decks for being awesome from the dude at the game store. He really didn't want to learn because apparently Magic is for Nerds, but when I told him how similar it was to Pokemon, he was more willing.

Can you make a witch? Red dress, kinda like I-No from Guilty Gear? Oh and make sure they are all saved in a secure location! If we get enough we can glue them together into unadulterated awesome!

Yes Wizards does make both games, Pokemon also holds the honor of being the only card game to ever outsell Magic for more than a single month (I think they got a whole six months but don't quote me on that.

They are pretty similar as I recall. I prefer magic but that may just be habit, which unless I'm gonna go out and make a bunch of new friends that kinda doesn't matter because I'm not gonna have anybody to play Pokemon with anyway. It's the same reason why I never started playing Overpower which is basically Capcom vs everybody the card game. It started with Street Fighter and Darkstalkers but I know they have Soul Caliber and Tekken expansions and I think I saw either Fatal Fury or King of Fighters (it can be impossible tell the franchises a part at a glance.)

I have nobody to play anything with since I moved. The game shop has a Pokemon Card league but it's all teenagers and I just would be way too old and out of place there. I'd be the old guy going, "Back in my day we didn't have double colorless energy!" And no one would want to play with me. I hate fucking aging. It's pissing me right off. Bri was talking about some hispanic Disney princess, whatwith us having a female baby and everything and I have no idea who the fuck that is. I don't know cartoons. I'm just too fucking old and I'm really not cool with it.

 

[Sean Renaud]

I don't know of a Hispanic Disney Princess either and I do keep up with cartoons age be damned. I probably watch more cartoons now than I did as a kid because I'm both not self conscious and thanks to the internet I have access to crap I otherwise wouldn't. Maybe she's coming out in a few years or something I have no idea what's coming down the pike.

I don't know where there is a Pokemon League but there are a few Magic gatherings where I live and I'm actually about the average age for it, you don't get a lot of teens just because the tournaments start at 8, routinely go until 1am and nobody without a Driver's License is going to anything that doesn't end until after Midnight. So really it's the one punk kid who gets teased where I go. Not too bad because he's a good kid but people are constantly reminding him that no he can't have a beer with the rest of us, he can't have a smoke or drive either!

That kid was me. C'mon, somebody give him a puff!

I love Cartoons, but outside of Adventure Time I don't watch that many modern cartoons, I tend to just watch the same stuff from my childhood interspaced with Studio Ghibli. This kid is going to have a hard time relating to folk at school. They're gonna be all, "My favorite princess is Sofia! Who're yours?"

And my kid's gonna be all, "Mononoki. Remember when she sucked the bullet out of that guy's wound? That's cool right? My parents are cosplayers. I have the wolf skin outfit with the mask and everything."

And then the first kid is gonna ask, "Do you think they could make me a Sofia dress!"

And then what? Then I'm going to be sitting here making 20 fucking outfits. And I will lose control of my life.

[Sean Renaud]

Yeah, stop watching crap and step into the modern era. We've improved since the 90's in most cases. Sure we've yet to match batman the Animated Series (though Beward the Batman might manage it and Young Justice would have surpassed it given a little longer.)

I have no idea who that Sofia is but she looks like she's made for TV so she doesn't count just like none of Tinks little friends count.

Tell me what to watch, I could use more stuff, actually. I really like Adventure Time.

And nothing will ever be better than Batman. Unless it is. So now I gotta watch this Young Justice you speak of. What's the show with Deadpool in it? I keep seeing screencaps but I don't know what it's from.

 

[Sean Renaud]

There's lots of stuff I wouldn't know where to begin since you seem to watch enough old shit that I have no idea why you aren't already watching everything. I mean holy shit.

I have a desk job on the off season. I sit at a desk for 8 hours a day watching watchcartoonsonline and playing a 3ds. And all Bri watches is Animie. I just don't know current stuff.

 

[Sean Renaud]

Well then start with Young Justice, Batman the Brave and the Bold and and Spectacular Spiderman at least if you aren't getting your action kick off the anime.

Batman The Brave & The Bold sounds a whole, whole lot like a soap opera.

You bite your tongue lest I have to bite it for you! That is an amazing cartoon. Imagine Adam West Batman Animated and you've got a pretty good idea of what's going on.

That is the most amazing sentence I've ever heard uttered by a fellow human being.

 

[Sean Renaud]

There were three sentences. I have no idea which one was filled with awesome.

Also how bizarre I just saw an ad for Sophia the first and I still have no clue what it is other than someone who likes tea.

It some generic Disney Princess. I'm sure she likes tea and has a prince. She seems kinda little for a Disney Princess tho.

 

[Sean Renaud]

Are you ever gonna tell me what sentence was awesome or make me more sprites?

 

[CandiCame]

"Imagine Adam West Batman Animated and you've got a pretty good idea of what's going on."

I forgot I was supposed to do that. I'm making Christmas presents. And watching horrible Halloween movies like that one where Bette Midler is a witch and wants to eat children and there's a talking cat. And also there's a zombie who looks freaky familiar.

You did NOT just dis Hocus Pocus did you?

I cast a spell on you,

You can't stop the things I do

Now the witch is back and they're HELL to pay
I cast a spell on you and now you're
MIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINE!

Come on GB my names Renaud, what's yours?!


Not to mention the utterly delicious

Come Little Children
I'll Take Thee Away, Into A Land
Of Enchantment
Come Little Children
The Time's Come To Play
Here In My Garden
Of Shadows
Follow Sweet Children
I'll Show Thee The Way
Through All The Pain And
The Sorrows
Weep Not Poor Children
For Life Is This Way
Murdering Beauty And
Passions
Hush Now Dear Children
[| From: http://www.elyrics.net |]

I just watched Hocus Pocus. And being a good movie doesn't make it any less horrible. It's one of those movies that would never be made in this day and age. But omg yes, her voice in that final song. Chills.

[CandiCame]

This one's the whole song; which I thought the other was and was wrong about.

[Sean Renaud]

I knew there was a reason why I let you live.

 

[CandiCame]

Now if I can only figure out what that reason is.
