    So I finished reading the War of the Spark novel yesterday. It was... not great (to put it nicely). Especially for those of us who are used to Sanderson standards of writing. No character development, dull and predictable plot, the action scenes were incredibly dry and boring. Davriel does have a couple cameos in it, but you can tell from them that the author never read Children of the Nameless. It does tell you the story of what happens in War of the Spark, so there’s that. Really, it’s like a B-movie except in book-form. If you like B-movies and you’re really into Magic, then you might enjoy the book. If you just want to know what happens with all your favorite MtG characters but don’t want to waste your time and money on this book, send me a PM and I’ll tell you everything that happens.

    So I haven't played magic IRL in over 15 years (I've dabbled with the Magic: Duels app a little, but that's it), but when I heard that Davriel was making it into the game it sparked (pun intended) my interest again, so I just went to a pre-release event last weekend and played a few rounds. I had a lot of fun, and it reminded me how much fun (and expensive) it can be to collect cards and build a deck and pit it against other people. But the main highlight was that a good friend of mine traded me 2 copies of Davriel- one foiled and one regular. I also pulled a Davriel's Shadowfugue in one of my packs. Now I just need to get to another one of Brandon's signings so that I can get my cards signed (I also have a couple Vin promo cards that I still need to get signed).

    Hey everyone! Several things in this post: First off, Sorry @ILuvHats, we can't wait for your roast any longer. As such, the voting is now officially open for Round 2: Match 2. Good luck to our contestants, @Silva (Frost), and @Toaster Retribution (Yokska)! Secondly, all 3 submissions are in for Round 2: Match 3, so voting is open for this match as well! Good luck to our contestants, @Zath (Dilaf), @I think I am here. (Sja-Anat), and @Kidpen (Yomen)! Click here to vote! (Note: Since we have 2 matches being voted on simultaneously, both of will be voted on in the same questionnaire. Click "Next" to get to the second page. Please don't click "Submit" until you have voted for each match.) Lastly, let's go ahead and get the final match of Round 2 underway. Our next batch of rappers are: @Paranoid King representing Hoid! @Archer representing Gemmel! @John203 representing Taan/Aanden! You will have 4 days to submit your raps- or in other words, until the end of the day Thursday (5/2).

    *Checks master spreadsheet* *Double-checks @Ark1002's name history* *Re-checks master spreadsheet* *Checks thread* Unfortunately, it looks like you didn't make it past the previous round. Better luck next time! You are correct, it is Aradan Yomen @Zath @I think I am here. @Kidpen @ILuvHats One day left!
  9. Herowannabe
    So much yes. But don't take our word for it, Why not give it a go yourself and watch an episode or two? Or four? Or eight? Or all of them? #SoTasty

    How about... right now? Apologies for the delay. I can't speak for @John203, but for me personally I've been buried under getting taxes completed, wrapping up a local gaming league that I run, and then Easter/Family stuff so I've been AWOL for the past 10 or so days. Round 2: Match 3 will feature: @Zath, representing Dilaf @I think I am here. representing Sja-Anat @Kidpen representing Yomen Good luck everyone, and have fun! You have 96 hours (or basically, until the end of the day on Thursday) to post your roasts. @ILuvHats, we will give you the same deadline- if you don't respond within that timeframe then we will consider you as forfeiting and will go ahead and open up voting for Match 2.
  11. Herowannabe
    Awesome. @ILuvHats how about you?
  12. Herowannabe
    If you need to step down we understand, but I think I speak for everyone when I say that we’d rather see what you came up with, even if it is “short and bad.” That said, I also have great respect for religious devotion, so take all the time you need. If we need to we’ll just put the voting on hold (like we did for the first match) and get started with the next round. Just let us know please so we can plan accordingly.
  13. Herowannabe
    @Toaster Retribution @ILuvHats How’s it coming? What about you, @Felt?
  14. Herowannabe
    @ILuvHats: Reminder that tomorrow is the deadline for your Roast! If you need more time or if you can't do it or if you no longer want to participate, please let us know.

    Cosmere Rap Roast Battles is up and running again. Yes. @John203 and I have taken over for Ashspren, who has RL commitments she is dealing with. The twist for this round is that everyone is temporarily switching characters at random with their opponents. The random generator chose Yokska for you. I pronounce it “Yoke-ska” By my count you have about 26 1/2 hours left. If you need more time though we will be lenient.

    Warbreaker is Brandon's best single novel

    Also, here’s a fun little tidbit in case you missed it. Once you’ve finished watching the first 2 seasons go back and watch the intro in of the very first episode. Look (and listen) closely! Clues to what you’re looking for:

    @Zath is correct, spending standings does not reduce your resiliences.
  19. Herowannabe
    Also, am I the only one who pictures Adolin as looking exactly like Soren?
  20. Herowannabe
    Yessss.... mission accomplished. Thank you!
  21. Herowannabe
    Brilliant! Thank you, and right back at you! I sung your roast in my head the whole time (and now, no thanks to you, I’m going to have Henry the 8th stuck in my head for the next 2 weeks)
  22. Herowannabe
    I'm all about Amaya. Coolest character ever. Hands down (pun intended).
  23. Herowannabe
    Where are my opponents? @hoiditthroughthegrapevine @Felt I wasn't able to make the deadline- I only got about halfway through my rap before I had to get back to work, but I'm working on it now and should have it posted in a couple hours tops. EDIT: Okay, here's my rap. I'm pretty proud of this one, it's one of my better roasts. Enjoy!
  24. Herowannabe
    A little over 14 hours left by my count! It's been a busy weekend, but I'll try to have my rap done and posted tomorrow. @hoiditthroughthegrapevine @Felt
  25. Herowannabe
    Thank you for all you've done @Ashspren, and we hope all goes well with your RL commitments! We also hope you'll be back soon as a contestant. To everyone else, please give @John203 and me a day or two to get our ducks in a row, and then we'll get the next round started.
