Errant Minion
Enchantment — Aura
Enchant creature
At the beginning of the upkeep of enchanted creature's controller, that player may pay (1) or (2). Errant Minion deals damage to that player equal to 2 minus the amount of mana paid this way.

mickalopagus thanks for your input! :D Errant Minion actually has a very specific role in this deck. The idea is to make them have to choose what phase they are going to use their mana in. With Mana Web out and an urbog whenever they use any mana they have to use it all. SOOOOOO..... if they pay to prevent any damage from errant minion they no longer have mana for their main phase or to attack me during the combat phase. Its like a less effective version of Mana Short that does damage instead. Also if they can't attack me because they can't pay for it that trumps the -2/-2 from Stab Wound. Anyways.. thats my reasoning, thanks for taking a look at my deck :D

Hey man here is a deck Ive been playing since 2006 or so. Its been updated since but maybe you can get some ideas. Urborg land is a fantastic idea, I just sold mine too haha.

I recommend Stab Wound over Errant Minion as it prevents damage against you and racks up the damage to boot. Siren's Call is one of my favorites with Propaganda out there. I used to use it with Ensnare which is dirtier, but hey this deck is pretty damn dirty as is ;p. Also with no creatures you can always Reins of Power FTW, which is quite hilarios

Stopped Dead in Your Tax (Dimir U/B Taxes)

So, I just learned that Seizures, Errant Minion and Soul Barrier are all illegal in the online pauper format. Which basically means this deck is not viable. I don't think there are any legal approximations, but I am open to suggestion.

UB Mana tax

I am building my own pauper taxing deck based on an old, old deck I once played with using Errant Minion and Winter Orb. I thought I'd see what I could do with a pauper variant. Here is a link to my deck: A Tax to Grind
To start off, I really like what you have going here.
A few suggestions...
Right off, I think you should consider Errant Minion for reasons I don't think I need to explain. Perhaps in place of Soul Barrier?
Most cards in pauper are very cheap and lots of decks are very thin on mana production as a result, so playing Rhystic Study can be a huge burden. Playing more than one, is almost unfair. Plus, you should really have some card drawing ability.
Here are some other ways to consider tapping creatures: Flood, Rhystic Deluge, Norritt & Rathi Trapper.
Shimmering Glasskite might be an interesting creature to consider as well. It'll be hard for your opponent to cast two creature-hate spells in a turn.
You might want to consider Fade Away for the sideboard if too many creatures are hitting the table.
And one last note, if you were to splash green, Kruphix's Insight and Aura Gnarlid would be brutal.
