I've been into Magic since 1997, but haven't been that big on acquiring cards since 2003--only really bothering to maintain my pet deck and two or three other decks (none of which are remotely Standard-legal). Nonetheless, I still keep tabs on the game, as it's a deep mental playground...at least for the time being. Future corporate policy on the direction of the game may dictate otherwise, but here's hoping it doesn't come to that.

You might find me on the online game simulator program called GCCG, where I help with program development and some of the game server hosting.

At times I've championed the Generated Type 4 Chaos Magic format, which you'll probably never want to play, as well as Expansion Highlander, which you might.
