I will completely ignore the game of mafia to tell you a story about my undergrad.

Many, many years ago when dinosaurs roamed the earth I started undergrad. I didn't really know anyone other than one person I was sorta friends with in high school. All of my friends had scattered to the wind and were all living in dorms and having the time of their lives with their new besties as evidenced on livejournal and this newfangled website called Facebook meant I could see pictures of all the fun they were having. Meanwhile I couldn't afford to live away from home in university and I was in a very popular major so I basically just took the bus to campus, went to incredibly impersonal 500 people lectures, then went home.

I had gotten to know a few people, but honestly we had basically nothing in common and I didn't like them very much. We would hang out and I never felt like I fit in with them but I was terrified of not hanging out with them because then I had nobody.

I went through my entire first year like this and got very depressed. Then in the summer before second year I posted in a livejournal group for my university and someone suggested I hang out at the university's GLBT centre on campus. I went there that September and met a whole bunch of cool people I was able to hang out with the rest of my time there. I also found a poster for a gaming group and started going to their little get togethers and met some people through that as well.

Basically the moral of this story is don't just settle for not meeting people. Find an interest and I guarantee there will be a group at your university campus that will share what you care about. That's half of what university is about.

Be open minded and try going. It may surprise you. It may not, but oh well lesson learned!

I left it out of my story, but I also tried to go to a few other places and it was like oh god no, and after about a month stopped talking to those people entirely. Sometimes it doesn't work out, but I wouldn't have known if I didn't try!

I think starter packs are relatively inexpensive. 10-player games do sound like a nightmare though. I've played a fair amount of MtG but not against anyone who took is super seriously and had like, pro-league decks. Usually just some pre-made silliness that's reasonably balanced if not super cheesy.

Also Capps, I say this with love, but if you want to make friends and enjoy things around you, you need to be less judgy. People are just trying to have fun and maybe they want to take it seriously or not, but saying they're making poo poo or that they're being poo poo because they are not doing the same things you would really closes a lot of doors.

Try to be more open minded.

I have spent a lot of money on my modern deck and so my friends just built hard counter decks to it and now I'm trapped

This is why spending money on MtG is for losers and terrible people whose money burns a hole in their pocket.

I just use the free half-decks that I get at PAX. I have like 10 of them now that I've managed to create some fun decks. I like blue/black or blue/white.

Red is garbage and if you play using red you're a monster.

Yeah I'd never play one of my free decks against someone who had bought individual cards or some other nonsense.

I did a draft thing once with friends when they bought a whole box of the little booster packs and the four of us built decks out of it to play for the night. That was fun, although I still think they are crazy since that must have cost a fair amount of money.

you would tooth and nail to insta play 2 kukoshos from your deck which then insta died from 2 legendary creature rule and you would do 10 damage to everyone and heal up for 50 health

A friend of mine in college circa 2002-2003 had, like, 10,000 cards, and we built a shitton of decks. He had a squirrel one that we frequently would have to pick up a whole 'nother deck to drop on the table be the 1/1 squirrels he summoned. That one was pretty fun.

Beyond that I don't really know. I haven't played magic for a long time, although I do like their games and I did play Magic Online for a little bit.

My favourite game of magic ever I played some stupid little bird that was 1/2 or something like that, but then I kept getting these buffing cards and it kept growing and growing and then suddenly this dumb weakass bird was like 12/14. It was awesome.

I didn't say anything earlier, but when I read this I nodded and thought "yes"

much like this



This is good reasoning and I like it. I also hate when people dismiss D1 it's awful and absolves them of actually playing because "lol I always hate D1". No, gently caress you, whether you're playing seriously or shitposting, join the game.
