Why am I still a Rookie?

I Lightning Bolt your Thallid.

I don't think this list is accurate any longer. I am a lowly apprentice and I don't see that listed anywhere. Also, I think I read somewhere that Cuppa Incarnate has been, ummm, discontinued.

Plus it doesn't have the Arcanaville rank. >.<

There's another one! They re-released that one in Magic 2013! Seriously, the disgusting amount of power re-prints? WHOO/YEESH? (unsure to be excited/disgusted)

Ding. Cuppa was discontinued a while ago. Don't know if they have a new list.

/lazy, unwashed student of the masses who doesn't like to do research so can't tell you what the new list is

Hell yeah. I like to ask trivia questions like, How many actors can you name that appeared on both the Batman tv show and the original Star Trek series?

I was always amazed at the people they managed to get on Batman. I mean, Otto Preminger was a world-famous director, so conservative that he typically wore a three piece suit on set. Yet he played Mr. Freeze, one of the most absurd villains on Batman. That role was also played by George Sanders. WTF? How did they get serious actors to play Mr. Freeze???

I can understand people like Victor Buono, John Astin, Roddy McDowell, Vincent Price and Frank Gorshin playing silly parts, but Michael Rennie? Joan Collins? Cesar Romero?


As a fast effect, I sacrifice it to the Elven Farmer and gain 2 life.

I can't believe I'm about to do this, but...

While I'm not as up on the older Batman movies and tv show, I do remember the storyline of ye olde Mr. Freeze, and while he was intended as a joke character, he was vengeful and angry in the comics, though I'm sure they handled the storylines with all the subtlety of a jackhammer in the tv show and movies (and probably missed the basics in every one). "Absurd", especially in comics, doesn't always mean stupid, or asinine (despite what the movies want us to believe). Take Joker. Until the Killing Joke, he was absurd. Up until Ledger in the movies, he was a much lighter, campier force for chaos. I'd nominate Penguin, Clock King, Riddler or even Croc for absurd before Mr. Freeze (being honest, not sure how many of these are newer vs older villains--I'm not a big Batman fan).

Amusingly enough, come reboot time for Mr. Freeze's backstory (ala Batman, The Animated Series) and suddenly Mr. Freeze is a giant joke in the last movie to have him (Batman and Robin). Which is a shame. The redone backstory started by BTAS and continued through newer story-lines would have fit in wonderfully in the new, gritter comic book movies that are popular at the moment.

Anyways. Back to the regularly scheduled conversation.

I cast Deflection, and redirect to your life, you take three damage.

I did think about mentioning that, but Arcana is the only one who has ever attained that rank and probably ever will. I'm not sure the rest of the masses even understand what's involved in attaining that rank. Let's see: 2,400 superpacks in beta? , numbers that boggle the mind (well mine anyway), constant input to the devs, plus getting into some really great forum debates (nods to her fellow debaters), {other stuffs}.

Kudos, Arcana, on the rank of Arcanaville.

So Angelica, you now have a goal. Good luck.

jeez, IB, grow a heart, she's recovering from surgery :P

I've had a pretty tough week. Still experiencing too much pain. I am exhausted.

Today was much better. I am hoping that things will steadily improve from here. I still can't sit comfortably for very long so I wont be joining the TF tomorrow. I'm hoping to be much better by next Saturday. I miss you guys.

I'm back, but still a rookie. Getting closer everyday.

Only 15 more posts should do it. Yay!!!

You can do it!

I heard a rumor that the forums are in some kind of 'maintenance mode', so the forum ranks are no longer being updated.

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!






No, not really.

Sadly, I have a few more posts than that to bump my own level.

Now's the time to be better than average. Or if not that, at least more than average.

So mean.
