9:41 am	Never Play on Release Day Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. Release day in League of Legends is always a pain in the ass. When you get a large number of anonymous internet fucktards together who all want to do exactly one thing, and only one out of a five person team can do it at a time, what you end up with is troll city. Last night was special in that, in addition to the normal new champion craptacular events, I also played like complete garbage, which turned the entire night into a extravaganza of me feeling terrible about myself and hating half my team at the same time. So here’s what I learned. Game 1 Game 1 our Cassiopeia didn’t bother to connect for awhile, so I had to take my teleport/flash Shyvana mid. Against Kassadin. I played so poorly in this game there’s not even anything to learn from it. Game 2 I took Morgana mid against a Malzahar. Now, normally, my Morgana is pretty badass, but I made a strategic mistake in this game that I don’t think I’ll ever repeat again, and our jungler made a rather large mistake that cost me dearly…but also because I played a bit poorly. My mistake? Trying to keep up in a pushing battle with a Malzahar. Under most normal circumstances Morgana pushes her lane like a mofo, Malzahar not only does that, he does it using less mana. So while I managed to keep Malz below half health the entire time, I was running out of mana and he wasn’t, and he was always right up against my tower. Now, many months ago, I used to get frustrated with junglers that never left the jungle and never ganked. Now I’ve learned to survive in more difficult lanes and I generally accept that the jungler can’t be everywhere at once, although I may disagree with where they are at any given point. What our jungler Skarner did, though was just stupid. He was queued with his friend in top lane, so what he did was…keep ganking top lane. When I asked him, hey, could we get some pressure elsewhere, his response was the rather unhelpful “I’m shutting down top lane. Deal.” There are quite a few problems with this. First, the entire point of the jungler is to stop people in lanes from doing stupid shit. Malzahar could push my turret as hard as he wanted, because he knew that Skarner wasn’t there. The enemy team knew where Skarner was at all points, and if they didn’t, they knew he was only ganking top, so mid and bottom just didn’t have to give a fuck. Meanwhile, their jungle Warwick had far fewer kills than our Skarner, but he made me and bottom play safe, because he wasn’t just chilling in a lane. Essentially, they had a jungler, and we had a duo top that just happened to be farming jungle creeps. Very frustrating. What I should have done was realize that he was never going to capitalize on the fact that Malz was taking random shots of turret aggro just to push the shit out of me and that I was on my own. What I actually did was keep going “Hey, look, easiest gank in the history of ganking! Malz no flash!” All that happened was that I stuck around my turret too long and got dived for my troubles. Game 3 I actually think I did reasonably well this game. I’ve been practicing my AD carry and my Corki was able to shut down a Graves in lane. The problem was that I was on life-tilt from the previous two games so instead of pushing to go to a lane where I’m good (mid or top) I let our Kennen and Talon take them. Kennen went 0-7 and Talon 0-4. By the time the laning phase ended, bottom lane was the only one that had done reasonably well, and their Nocturne was 4-0-4. Sometimes I start to feel like I’m getting good at LoL…and sometimes I have nights like this one. There was only one thing to do. Game 4 Play a game of Dominion where Peter and Kenny carried and I ran around going I LIEK DRAGGGGOOOONZ. And we won it, obviously. (Comment on this)

2:21 pm	Why not just win another pre-release? Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. If you follow me on the various social networks I’m much more active on than I am on my blog, then you should know that I just won my second pre-release in a row, after taking 2 months off of Magic. That’s an actual two months off, mind you, where I played zero games and did nothing but grind League of Legends. I guess I need to get my constructed skills back up to snuff. I didn’t have quite as much to work with this time, so I had to actually play games and win them rather than just wait to take home packs, but it ended well. I lost exactly one game all day, but that was to Peter, so that’s alright. [deck title=More Fair than it Used to Be] [Creatures] *1 Adaptive Automaton *1 Aegis Angel *1 Assault Griffin *2 Blood Ogre *1 Bonebreaker Giant *1 Goblin Piker *1 Grand Abolisher *2 Griffin Rider *1 Griffin Sentinel *1 Inferno Titan *1 Stonehorn Dignitary *1 Stormfront Pegasus *1 Wall of Torches [/Creatures] [Spells and Equipment] *1 Chandra’s Outrage *1 Fireball *1 Greatsword *1 Incinerate *1 Mighty Leap *1 Pacifism *1 Swiftfoot Boots *1 Timely Reinforcements [/Spells and Equipment] [Lands] *8 Mountain *9 Plains [/Lands] [Honorable Mentions] *1 Celestial Purge *1 Combust [/Honorable Mentions] [/deck] I give some honorable mentions up there for a reason. I played against 5 black decks in a row to go undefeated, so I played as many games with Celestial Purge as I did without it. I never cast my Swiftfoot Boots once, but I sure as hell cast my Purge, including purging my own Mind Controlled Inferno Titan. 3 of the black decks also had green. The other two had either white or blue. Hellooooo combust! (Comment on this)

12:15 pm	This is how you win a pre-release Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. Always remember children, Magic is a skill game. So this is the deck I piloted through the New Phyrexia pre-release in Huntsville this weekend: [deck title=Seems Fair] [Creatures] Alpha Tyrranax Bellowing Tanglewurm Blind Zealot Chancellor of the Dross Geth, Lord of the Vault Iron Myr Pestilent Souleater Phyrexian Metamorph Phyrexian Swarmlord Tangle Angler Wall of Tanglecord [/Creatures] [Spells] Beast Within Dismember Enslave Glissas Scorn Grasp of Darkness Grim Affliction Leeching Bite Parasitic Implant Slice in Twain [/Spells] [Artifacts] Nim Deathmantle Tumble Magnet [/Artifacts] [Lands] *9 Forest *9 Swamp [/Lands] [/deck] The other rare that I opened was [card]Asceticism[/card], which means that it was on-color and just not worth using. The only cards I sided in all day were [card]Corrosive Gale[/card] and [card]Darksteel Sentinel[/card]. The Sentinel match was the only one where I lost a game: the guy had the new black Wrath of God and [card]Wurmcoil Engine[/card], which explains why he came in well enough I think. Best crushings of the day include having my opponent cast [card]Galvanic Blast[/card], Grasp of Darkness, and use [card]Barrage Ogre[/card] to kill my Chancellor, which I responded to by paying 4 to my Nim Deathmantle. Me forgetting was his only hope, although it did [card]Fog[/card] for a turn. Or against Scott, where I had out Geth, Enslaved his copy of the Chancellor, and then Geth’d back [card]Myr Battlesphere[/card] to fight for me, after slicing it in twain. It was a good day. And then the almost-box of product that I won (32 packs) that we split between us had 8 mythics in it. Seems good. (Comment on this)

12:09 am	Minimalist Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. So upgraded to Cyanogenmod 7, and my minimalism urges are kicking in hardcore for once. I got rid of the two extra homescreens I don’t use since ADW launcher makes it so easy to add them back to where I want them and I killed all of my widgets, leaving me with three homescreens that only have four icons on them. And I’m still on the white/black thing. Who knows how long this will last? Probably until I upgrade to a Sense phone soon. My poor Droid. BW Minimalism! I think I need to change the titlebar colors next... Gingerbread is pretty sweet, by the way. (Comment on this)

1:40 pm	On Selling Out Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. Whenever I tell someone about my past as a historian, or that I was planning on being a professor, they always ask the same question: “So how’d you end up doing this?” Lately I’ve come to realize that that is not the question they should be asking. There are a lot of reasons why I ended up where I am, working in IT rather than academia, and all of them are because I had certain immediate needs and opportunities. None of those still exist. The real questions are: Why did I not go back? Why am I still here? The answer, my friends, is simple. I sold out. And I’m happy with that fact. Tonight I’m going to go play a game that requires me to spend hundreds of dollars on cardboard every year. A few weeks ago I took a rather pretty gal out to dinner and a movie without even thinking about the money it cost me. These are things that middle-class people can do at will. A few years ago taking a girl out to dinner and movie required mental gymnastics to figure out what I was going to give up to make that possible. I barely had money to spend on food, much less games, books, or HDTV. I had a Netflix account, the internet, and my old game collection, and I had to make it count. What books I did read were for classes or research, and that cost thousands of dollars in non-negotiable money a year. Money I didn’t actually have. So why am I not a historian anymore? Because, dear Internet, as much as I loved spending all of my time solving centuries old puzzles, as much as I loved my job being to debate with other smart people over minute differences in our views on the sociology of people who were dead before the languages we were using to discuss them even existed…I love my consume whore side more. It’s just true. I like my job, and I love the people I work with, but I’m not going to pretend I’m changing the world by being here. For all that I was accomplishing intellectually as a historian, part of me was deeply unhappy that I couldn’t enjoy a lot of the simple pleasures in life. Now I can buy a Kindle book without even thinking, I can order a pizza without wondering if I can pay rent, and I own a house. Would I eventually have obtained all of those things in academia? Of course! The difference is the time frames involved. Five more years of living in complete poverty and another five after that of publish-or-perish hell? In another seven years here I’ll be making twice what I would have made even with tenure. So yeah, I sold out. I sold my intellectual soul for my materialistic pleasures. Sometimes I still worry that I’m not the person I could have been because of it. But most of the time? Most of the time I’m just happy that on Friday night my friends & I can go out for steak and pool without requiring an act of congress. (Comment on this)

9:51 pm	Hurray Customer Service! Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. Since I rant enough to cover the vitriol quota for five normal men, I thought I’d once again switch it up by posting an uplifting story (of sorts) here on the ole Jux Entente. As many of you know, my poor Original Gangsta Droid has been having some hardware issues. Namely, the sleep/wake button died this weekend, leaving me with only sliding the phone open as a way to rouse it from its sleep. On my way home from the office tonight I stopped by the Kennesaw VzW store to ask what my options were. I knew I didn’t want to upgrade yet, since the fresh crop of Android phones is coming soon, but I figured since it’s an 18-month-old phone I’d probably have to file through insurance rather than get a warranty replacement at this point, and have to pay for the privilege. I’d heard on Ars that the refurbs of the original Droids were long-since out of stock as well. I was desperately hoping they wouldn’t try to give me something godawful like a Droid 2 if I had to replace the entire phone. About the only thing I’d want from the current lineup, even for 6 months or so, is an Incredible. All of that worrying was pointless in the end, though. This is what actually happened: I walked in, told them what my problem was, told them I didn’t want to upgrade yet even though I qualified for an early upgrade, and they said they understood. Then they offered to overnight me a refurbished OG Droid to replace mine, for free. So for $0 out of pocket I’m getting a replacement OG Droid to continue surviving on. This is excellent. I’ll just swap in my SD card, restore my Ti Backup, and go. The whole process took less than 10 minutes. Amazing, really. (Comment on this)

12:49 am	A Dancehall King Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. Title has no bearing on content. This is all about how I fixed screen 2 with a new Power Control widget. Since it replaced DroidLight (finally!) I also killed RunKeeper from the screen, since it doesn’t have a good icon yet. I might setup screen 1 or 5 for that kind of stuff, but we’ll see. Fancy new Power Control widget (Comment on this)

8:27 pm	Still Messing Around Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. I guess I wasn’t quite done after that last post. The icons were standing out too much to me, so I had to fix them. Some of these aren’t final, but they definitely fit in better. Still need a better power control/toggle widget though. Main homescreen. Media and utility homescreen. Social homescreen. And, repasted from the previous post, just for reference: Screen 1, showing what it looks like empty. Screen 5 is identical.

12:37 am	Messing Around with Android Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. Hello Internet! I felt like doing something vaguely creative today when I got back from playing disc golf, so I started mucking about with the wallpaper on my Droid, which I hadn’t changed in over a year. I constantly tweak widgets and launchers trying to find something I’m fully happy with, and while I’m not quite there yet, I think I’m getting closer. Take a look at these, Dear Internet, and tell me what you think. The image of Clare I found here and cut down to size. The rest is all Launcher Pro. Does anyone know of a better toggle widget bar? Enough text. Screenies! Screen 1, showing what it looks like empty. Screen 5 is identical. My primary homescreen (3). My utility screen (2). Screen four, with clutter and social stuff.

3:17 am	A Small Quest Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. I’m not sure how many more posts I can make about my poor deceased cat, but I’m going to keep going until I stop thinking about it, so there. Yesterday I made that Picasa album because it was the middle of the night and the house was really lonely. I noticed when I was doing it that there was one picture I could remember but just couldn’t find. I was sure it existed, though. Today, after I got back from watching Anderson Silva actually fight for once, I decided to find it. I scoured all of my image directories: nothing. Suddenly I knew where it had to be, and woe…woe unto me. I searched for the box I knew it to be in, and there it was: my old LG VX6100. Then I poured through the box some more…the DATA CABLE! I press the power button and the phone comes to life, reminding me how terrible the battery life on smart phones really is, since this phone hasn’t left a box in over three years and had a three-year-old battery that was half charged when it was put into the box in the first place. So, anyway, I start flipping through the images directory of the terrible digital camera and find quite a few gems I probably should have moved off, but finally there it is, the picture I remember. Skirt was, obviously, one of the most awesome cats around, but I think this was the only picture ever taken of this particular habit of hers: Just Chillin' She didn’t do that as much in her later years, and as far as I know this was the only time she did while a camera was available. It’s an awesome photo, though, and one I knew had to be found. All I had to do was find my old cell phone, find its data cable, find a driver, download bitpim, and connect all of the pieces in exactly the right order to make this happen. The order being: both cables, open bitpim, power on phone. Anything else wouldn’t work. But, there you go. My cat wandering the house by laying across my shoulders. (Comment on this)

2:35 am	Skirt Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. Everything I have, which I wish was more (and why did I take so few pictures in 2010?): Skirt It’s amazing how okay I am with this in the middle of the day and how upset I am by it in the middle of the night. I’ve cried more over this cat than I did over the last two human members of my family who passed away combined. What does that say about me? I miss hearing random jangling bells in the hallway, especially when the doorbell rings or a door opens somewhere. I’ve been surfing the net all night and no one has poked my elbow with their paw to tell me to stop. No one has burrowed under the covers on the bed because the heat’s gone down for the night. No one to race me out of the bed when I wake up, either. The treat ball is just sitting in the corner. What am I supposed to do with all of this stuff? It’s not fair that she didn’t get an old age or even any warning. Her heart just stopped, in the middle of the night, for no reason. That’s not fair. (Comment on this)

12:48 am	Skirt…? SKIRT! Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. At 12:28am my cat Skirt suddenly died. I’m not sure why. It seems like it was a heart attack or something similar. Shocked..so young. She was sleeping on the floor in the bedroom and then kind of jumped in the air and fell on her back while I was reading in bed. When I called her she didn’t respond at all so I got out and checked on her and she seemed to be struggling to breathe. She made a few gagging noises with her eyes wide open and her tongue out and then just stopped…completely limp. I tried to bring her around but she was just gone, like that. She was only 5, and healthy. I wrapped her in a quilt because I’m not even sure what else to do. It’s the middle of the night. What can I do, really? She was dead before I could even think to call an emergency vet much less get her there. I’ve lost pets before, even instantly to things like cars, but never in such a strange manner in the middle of the night. Skirt :( Edit: Results are in. Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy and an undersized heart on top of it. She didn’t have long one way or another. :( (Comment on this)

6:54 pm	EDH it Up (Bitches?) Originally published at The Jux Entente. You can comment here or at our Forum. This weekend Billy, Scott, Brad and I gamed it up at GP Atlanta. Due to my broken hand only recently being capable of shuffling, plus the pain of not owning [card Mutavault]Mutavaults[/card], I decided to skip the extended main event and mostly play Elder Dragon Highlander side events, which I will absolutely refuse to call Commander. Being the frugal person that I am, I took this as an excuse to immediately spend more money pimping out my EDH decks than I would have building the rest of Faeries to play for real money. In my world this is how penny-pinching works. The plan was for Billy and I to shark all the free-for-all tables like assholes with our new, full-power decks. I also took the time to upgrade my more casual/fun blow-shit-up deck a bit too. Here’s the lists as they ended up, white control deck first: [cardlist title=Eight-and-a-Half-Tails] [General] Eight-and-a-Half-Tails [/General] [Creatures] Academy Rector Adarkar Valkyrie Admonition Angel Akroma, Angel of Wrath Aven Mindcensor Baneslayer Angel Devout Witness Eternal Dragon Exalted Angel Karmic Guide Kozilek, Butcher of Truth Linvala, Keeper of Silence Purity Reya Dawnbringer Rune-Tail, Kitsune Ascendant Serra Angel Stonecloaker Stoneforge Mystic Sun Titan Sunblast Angel Twilight Shepherd World Queller [/Creatures] [Artifacts] Akromas Memorial Crucible of Worlds Expedition Map Gauntlet of Power Mana Vault Nevinyrrals Disk Planar Portal Scroll Rack Senseis Divining Top Sol Ring [/Artifacts] [Enchantments] Aura of Silence Land Tax Luminarch Ascension Oblivion Ring Sacred Mesa Story Circle Worship [/Enchantments] [Equipment] Lightning Greaves Loxodon Warhammer Skullclamp Sword of Fire and Ice Umezawas Jitte [/Equipment] [Planeswalkers] Elspeth, Knight-Errant Gideon Jura [/Planeswalkers] [Instants] Condemn Crib Swap Enlightened Tutor Path to Exile Return to Dust Swords to Plowshares [/Instants] [Sorceries] Austere Command Catastrophe Hallowed Burial Idyllic Tutor Martial Coup Mass Calcify Revoke Existence Rout Saltblast Wrath of God [/Sorceries] [Lands] Arid Mesa Boseiju, Who Shelters All Dust Bowl Eiganjo Castle Emeria, the Sky Ruin Ghost Quarter Kjeldoran Outpost Kor Haven Marsh Flats Miren, the Moaning Well Mishras Factory Mistveil Plains Mystifying Maze 19 Plains Strip Mine Tectonic Edge Temple of the False God Thawing Glaciers Vesuva [/Lands] [/cardlist] This deck is designed for multiplayer. It makes itself look unassuming compared to the other decks on the table, wraths when needed (the deck has 9 wrath effects) and finally ends up casting big fatties angels and doing weird recursion or drawing a bunch of cards. It’s mono-white control stuffed with good stuff. It’s not the most aggressive deck in the world, but what it does do is survive. This is the one I played at the for-pay tables at the GP. [cardlist title=Ashling the Pilgrim] [General] Ashling the Pilgrim [/General] [Creatures] Akroma, Angel of Fury Anarchist Anger Bogardan Hellkite Dwarven Blastminer Flameblast Dragon Flamekin Harbinger Hateflayer Inferno Titan Jaya Ballard, Task Mage Steel Hellkite Ulamog, the Infinite Gyre Viashino Heretic [/Creatures] [Artifacts] Basalt Monolith Expedition Map Gauntlet of Power Mana Vault Planar Portal Scroll Rack Senseis Divining Top Sol Ring Tower of Calamities [/Artifacts] [Enchantments] Blood Moon Braid of Fire Mana Flare Pyrohemia [/Enchantments] [Equipment] Basilisk Collar Lightning Greaves Loxodon Warhammer Magebane Armor Sword of Fire and Ice Umezawas Jitte Whispersilk Cloak [/Equipment] [Planeswalkers] Chandra Nalaar Koth of the Hammer [/Planeswalkers] [Instants] Comet Storm Price of Progress Reiterate Reverberate Shattering Pulse Starstorm Wild Ricochet [/Instants] [Sorceries] Banefire Decree of Annihilation Demonfire Fireball Molten Disaster Ruination Wheel of Fate [/Sorceries] [Lands] Boseiju, Who Shelters All Dust Bowl Madblind Mountain Mercadian Bazaar Miren, the Moaning Well 39 Mountain Shinka, the Bloodsoaked Keep Spinerock Knoll Strip Mine Tectonic Edge Temple of the False God Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle [/Lands] [/cardlist] This is the fun deck. It goes boom and tries to Voltron someone to death with general damage. It is an absolute blast to play, though it’s not necessarily “good”. I’d talk about individual matches and games, but meh. Who really wants to hear that? I just wanted to show off the EDH decks! I’m working on a full-power, hateful combo deck around [card Teysa, Orzhov Scion]Teysa[/card] next, and I might update with that if I feel like it. (Comment on this)
