Hello my name is Weird01. but some yahoo has gone to every site imaginable and taken my name as his/her own. So then upon checking every variation on the name, Weird0 Juan seems to be the only consistently unused variant. It is only on this site that I have added the Kenobi "as we all need a last name" because Star Wars has been a major influence in my life since I was a youngling of the tender age of 4. I am not Latino regardless of my middle name. I am in fact 1/2 Eskimo
I live in Alaska. I am older than most of you.
Have had a real interesting history with MtG.
(Reads like this) in 1994 I started playing a collectible card game called jihad which later changed its name to Vampire the Eternal struggle. It was the second game of its type with MtG. being the first. A close friend of mine(RIP) saw what I was doing and introduced me to magic. I taught him jihad he taught me magic. However in the snobbery of my youth I resisted building a collection. Instead using his extensive collection to build my decks for play, and concentrating instead on growing my collection of vampire cards. (Oh the folly of youth).
Later while doing some time in the slammer, the pokie, the klink, prison, jail, the pen, inside, upstate, behind bars otherwise known as "where your/he's going... ... ..." I was exposed yet again. however $.50 an hour doesn't provide enough capital to build any kind of collection if you want to eat anything but food that is marked "not for human consumption". So once again I used decks that were loaned to me by people who made them to lose to their almighty god decks... didn't win a single game at this point in my life. The year is 2001.
Then in 2009 something spectacular happened. Upon winning a bid at a storage auction to get inventory for my new and used merchandise store I came across a collection of magic cards. I studied every single card in the collection. Though I had no time to play and no one to play with I fell deeply in love with the game. A few years later after traveling the lower 48 states, going to welding school, working my butt off in the largest oil field in these United States. I finally found time to play. I still had no one to play with. So I down loaded duels of the planes walkers 2012 on my PS3. 2014/15/16 I have on multiple occasions now found collections for sale due to distressed financial health of several people. So I was able to obtain a massive collection of cards from 1993-today. I still don't really have anyone to play with but admittedly I haven't really looked.
I've had this app since 2012 and just today opened the forum for the first time. Using the app entirely as a card catalog and price guide.
After reading every post in the intros, all 10 pages, I have determined that I was a practicing imbicile for not getting involved sooner (oh the folly of middle age).
So hello all I look forward to becoming a valued member of your fine community. Thank you for having me.
