Figured it was time to revamp this. Haven't been on the site in a while, How is everyone?

Pretty good, quarantine has resulted in me and my mom playing games together more (I moved back to Chicago from DC due to warnings that DC may become a hotspot and my school went totally online), my band just finished our second two song ep and I got a new Betta Fish named Tofu.

Also welcome back!

Welcome back. I’ll jump in on a friendly discussion.

Like dbpunk my school has been moved to online. Had to move back home. Disappointing but understandable. Social distancing has been fine, hoping to go explore the woods sometime to get out of the house. My hair is getting out of control because I can’t go get a haircut anymore. Hoping ikoria has a sweet new Boros legend.

Overall, my life is going pretty great. There’s some temporary annoyances, but I can’t complain. Others are worse off. I have a lot to be thankful for.

Welcome back!

Honestly... I'm kind of enjoying COVID-19 lockdown. For now... I'll probably enjoy it less when money gets tight, but having what seems like all the time in the world to play MTG, board games, and video games with family is quite nice. Plenty of time to brew up ideas and test them out.

Did everyone here know each other already?

The Modern and Pioneer scenes no longer interest me so I'm focusing on Cube and forum questions to get my Magic fix under lockdown. I'm in New Haven btw.

Dylan says... #8

No we didn't. Other formats are not interesting to me so I've been just focusing on my cube.

Hey hey hey. Lockdown hasn't affected me much. I usually stay home when not working anyway, and I work at a sugar factory and we're considered a "critical infrastructure industry" so I still have to show up for work. And my wife is in the food industry as well so she still has to work. I'd say we're luckier than most but being out increases our chances of catching "the bug" even tho our employers are taking the appropriate measures against it. I started building a Rashmi, Eternities Crafter deck for my son in hopes that it will pique his interest in the game. Stay positive in these trying times.

Sugar production is critical to American infrastructure. Hilarious, learn something new every day. Happy to hear all is well for you on that front.

Actually, the intro and first 2 minutes was the best part to me. Very mellow, serene, soothing, the kind of thing I like to have on in the background while I game or brew decks.

I enjoyed that. Ever mess around with strings? A cello or violin can take a song to the next level if done right.

Thanks, and thanks for the tip. Im actually considering buying Native Instuments String Essemble. All i have stringwise right now is Outputs Analog Strings and they are all wierd and no basic clean violins and such :)

smackjack That was pretty cool

I thought a drum beat would be neat as well especially following the shift to cymbal use in the early middle part.

Incorrect Link, thought I solved the problem but I was wrong.

Doing college classes at home is a really boring experience. Especially Greek, Latin, & Hebrew... French is manageable because my entire family speaks it. My sister isn't quite fluent but I just avoid words that are quite uncommon.
