Sing of the Guildpact · 12:35pm Jun 10th, 2021

Appropos of nothing, I thought I'd throw together some songs that give a basic sense of each guild of Ravnica. There is tangential pony content, but this is mostly card game-related fun. Feel free to offer some suggestions in the comments, and bear in mind that this not meant to be taken especially seriously.

Oath of the Gatewatch Leaks · 11:40pm Nov 18th, 2015

So, HUGE news on the MTG front today. We just got spoilers, and hoo boy, are they crazy. Especially of note to this crowd in particular is the new land called Mirrorpool. That can copy creatures. There needs to be a horse in the set for this purpose.

Elemental Questions, Part 1 · 7:36pm Feb 5th, 2018

If you haven't been paying attention to the Magic: the Gathering community, you may be unaware that there's a bit of a reality show going on at Wizards of the Coast right now, namely the Great Designer Search 3. The grand prize is a six-month internship at WotC... for a given definition of "internship," since it actually pays better than my current job.

Midnight Realization · 1:51am Jul 19th, 2018

First, a bit of background: The Seer's Parables are set on the plane of Shadowmoor, which is basically a universe of especially grim fairy tales. Lorwyn is the sanitized Disney version. Shadowmoor is the one where even the good little boys and girls get eaten; it just happens to them slightly later.

In any case, I was rereading them just a bit ago when I was struck by something familiar:

The Fblthp Saga hasn't had any new stories, but so what? Fblthp is awesome.

Spike: Tournament Grinder? · 8:01pm Feb 19th, 2021

First off, a reminder that my HarmonyCon panel is tonight. See here for further details.

Now, let’s talk about card games. I know, a stark departure from my usual subject matter.

Shiny new avatar · 11:22am Jan 25th, 2013

A good friend of mine gave me a belated birthday present just a few hours ago; a ponified version of me!

So, I figured, why not make it my new avatar?

I cropped it down and erased a couple pencil lines visible in the scanned image for my avatar version. Here's the full picture:

I look so serious with those Magic cards, no?

Commanding Presences · 12:46pm Dec 28th, 2020

A bit ago, Flutterpriest reached out to me for a possible Barcast side project, using Spelltable to play Magic: the Gathering with other folks on Fimfic. Some hiccups later, we have the first episode of any!

Guildmages' Forum · 10:31pm Oct 3rd, 2021

Dueling Keyboards, my short story anthology, has updated with a new entry based on my "Ravnica with ponies" setting. (Hence the Implicit Neighs tag.) This one was originally written on a typewriter at the Last Bronycon and subsequently expanded when I finally figured out how to end it. Here's hoping you enjoy. :twilightsmile:

Important information for y'all. · 12:00am Jul 23rd, 2017

Professor Plum put together a pretty useful guide for convention-goers.

Your prerogative is your prerogative, but i hope you'll take them as sage advice. I fully intend to follow 'em, and I've been to enough other cons to know how unpleasant getting a sweaty, unwashed armpit shoved in your face by accident is.

Colorful Language · 8:48pm Jul 2nd, 2015

Speckle is a friend of mine with whom I've exchanged many a PM, including an idea about a Madoka Magica story built around the guilds of Ravnica. (We have the characters down, but we're kind of stalling in terms of getting the plot to gel.)

Signature Spellbook: Ditzy Doo · 12:04am Mar 22nd, 2018

Blame/thank Zennistrad for this one. It's been far too long since I've taken a look at the exploits of Ditzy Planeswalker. This should prove to be a fun exercise.

magic the gathering challenge · 1:17am Aug 13th, 2018

Hello everyone, I'm an avid magic the gathering player (mtg) and I know there's alot of yuh gi oh and pokemon and even one for bakugan but not for magic the gathering sorcery I was thinking what if instead of a deck it's a spell book full of the "cards" and during a game instead of drawing cards the spells show up signaling that they are playable, spike would be the main protagonist and is trying to become a powerful duelist by working his way up from the bottom.

Friendship is Card Games: Sleepless in Ponyville · 1:36pm Sep 6th, 2015

If you were expecting “Magic Duel,” you can find it here. This week, we’re looking at the first part of the Crusaders’ dream trilogy… which, due to how I ended up doing this blog, will be the last one I look at. And largely isn’t in Ponyville. Go figure.

Sorry for the slight delay; I blame Daylight Savings Time. In any case, this week we have a tribute to 1890s mystery stories and 1990s teen sitcoms.

I assure you, I will explain.

Friendship is Card Games: Homecoming, Part 2 · 12:55pm Jan 3rd, 2021

When last we left the comics, Twilight had sent Zecora and a brute squad to Farasi, a land Zecora had abandoned long ago on a quest for magical power… leaving behind her friends as well.

Any resemblance to Sunset Shimmer is probably coincidental. Besides, as far as I know, Sunset’s never had to deal with a grootslang. Time for adventurous diplomacy!
