Ah... Magic. It wasn't about winning. It was about building themes! My rabid wombat deck wasn't meant to win, but to feed him as many enchantments before I died... Or role playing with my pure wall deck. Saying, "Scruvy scum, you'll break my walls with your pathetic killer bees, for I have... FLYING WALLS! I will outlast your kind for the next century or end of lunch!"
I will sooner lose than break theme.
Making a good deck is easy, making a good deck that looks good is hard

I hope Escapist has a contest in the future that results in the winner playing Graham Magic.
I'd be all up in that, taking first place like a champion.
Then I'd kill 2 birds with one stone.
1) I'd get to meet Graham.
2) I'd finally get to play someone magic again (slim pickings in my part of California).
I'm officially leaving this thread because the more I see it the happier I get.
Too much happy not good for getting to sleep on time.
