Title: So I just realized
Post by: Noblellama on July 01, 2015, 10:01:09 PM
I just realized that Today, of all days, the 1st of July, is my 20 year anniversary of playing magic...

July first of 1995 I was in summer school when I saw the art on The Ice Age {Scaled Wurm} get opened on a table in a junior high cafeteria. I was beautiful to my 8 year old eyes, and I was fascinated on what this thing was.

And then when I flipped open the Ice Age rule book and the glossary had a section for Ornithopter that read "see Craw Giant" and Craw Giant said "See continuous loop" and Continuous loop said "See ornithoper" I was perplexed at what I would later discover to be my first experience of trolling.

God I love this game even 20 years later...

Lovely first encounter.
