As we all know one of the things that keeps Magic going is FNM and other tournaments, it keeps the game in our mind and forces us to think about it all the time. I am fortunate enough to be in high school with a great group of nerds who play every day at lunch (last year we missed two days but that is still like 190 days). I was wondering how often other people play.

I play once a week at FNM. Occasionally I'll get together with friends over a weekend and play, or join sealed league which gives me something to do on Weds nights for a few weeks.

Which reminds me...time for sealed league!

Can you explain sealed league?

Fnm, once a week team meetings, and whenever we need to work on something new. One of my teammates lives upstairs from me.

Bout 2 times a month at fnm, and I always take a new deck lol.

Whenever I get the chance. Most the time I have no one to play with so ill make a deck and play test it against myself. I wish I knew more players in the area...that I could stand...so I could play more.

Side question...idk if its the same in your LGS but for some reason at mine no one wears deodorant...I just don't get it. Is this something that is everywhere or is it just my lgs?

Moneekah and I try to play every night or every other night at our kitchen table. :) I don't get to play in tournaments too often, but thats normal for a grad student & father.

Do what a friend of mine did to one of our teachers...bring them tic-tacs, deodorant and soap

Sadly I don't get to play FNM very often so I'm not well known so I don't think it'd go over very well lol

Yeah didn't work well with my friend either...

Try as much as I can. But my friends aren't as competitive as me, so they don't like playing against my decks. Fnm is always a possibility, but sometimes the people there are just far too arrogant, or just straight up douchers.

I know how you feel, my friends aren't as competitive either and my first time at FNM sucked, I lost 0 and 4. You just have to go out and play though, FNM teaches you a lot about Magic techniques and improves your decks and gameplay. Last week I won 5-0 went 2-0 on all matches but one.

I used to go to fnm every friday but now I work and do college, so now I just let my friend use all my cards and I play edh on cockatrice.

B.O. and farts are the universal odors you'll smell at an LGS.

Vampyvyrus

I'd much father smell a fart then b.o. Farts happen but bad body odor comes from self neglect which for some reason makes my stomach turn just as much as the stench. I guess I don't understand why theres a corilation btwn card games and bo.
