Any Card Game Players?

Hello SEN,

My name is SpaceDominator and I have been around the StarCraft Community since the original StarCraft Beta. However, besides my own love for playing StarCraft, my other biggest interest is that of card games. Since I was rather young, I used to play a ton of different classic card games such as Euchre, Hearts, Spades, Bridge, Pinochle, etc.. and loved playing them for fun and analyzing the strategy to them.

So over the past few months over at BlizzForums, I have held a weekly card game night where we have switched up and learned and played a new card game each week. We have played everything from Euchre to 3-5-8 to Barbu to Agurk to Cribbage to Spades to Whist to Hearts, etc.. We've had a good turnout of people each week and we've had a lot of fun each week with it.

So what's the point of me bringing all this up? I'm inviting SEN to take part in my Euchre Tournament that I will be hosting next Wednesday, March 18th @ 9:00 PM EST. I thought it would be pretty fun to bring people from different communities together to compete in a simple to learn card game that is pretty quick. The entire tournament will last approximately only 75-90 minutes total.

However, the thing is that this event isn't only for players who know how to play the game of Euchre but it is also an opportunity to learn how to play Euchre. For those of you that are interested in learning or just playing some friendly warm up games, I will be hosting starting on Wednesday, March 11th @ 8:30 PM EST a night where will be teaching Euchre and also forming the partnerships for play the next week.

Full details about the two nights are available at: http://www.swoopzone.net/bf/euchretourney.html

If you have any questions or would like to me to give you a reminder about the event(either through AIM, PM, E-mail, etc...) feel free to let me know in this thread.

I thank you for your time and I am looking forward to seeing SEN represented in the event.

I haven't played MTG since like 8th grade, probably 8 years ago? I do know that there are a few people who play it still over at BlizzForums. It's a fun game, but I lost a lot of interest when all of my friends lost interest and I grew up a bit. :)

I play MTG about once a week with my friend. My last tournament I got first out 48 people! That was awesome. [/so brag]
I've been playing since before I could read though.

You never really understand how the game works until you go to one of those and just get your "OMG my white-green enchant creaure deck" wrecked.

So you suggest I don't go on with my plans and make a deck like that? :)

It just seems like the best thing in the world, "I'm going to make my already stronger creatures EVEN STRONGER! muahahahhahah", but any decent black deck will make you want to quit the game.

ManCubuS -- Seems like something's broken regarding the site then. Sadge...

Oh_Man -- have i ever told u guys my SC2 pro-gamer story

Ultraviolet -- That's strange, it looks like you targeted the base image file (sometimes people make the mistake of just using the imgur page link which doesn't work for embedding) but it still didn't work it sounds like.

ManCubuS -- Used : " [img=https://i.imgur.com/gpOjTuD.jpeg] "

ManCubuS -- Even tried with imgur, doesn't attach.

ManCubuS -- I should try a workaround, thanks! Sadly imgur is blocked in my country for some unknown reason.

NudeRaider -- I think SEN has trouble with https or hotlinking is forbidden. It certainly is nothing about the size, it just fails to get any size. You can get it working if you use imgur and include the actual image link for the img tag. Like this: [img=https://i.imgur.com/ddYqXZa.jpeg]

ManCubuS -- Hey fellas! Anyone knows why when I try to upload an image it says "failed to get image size"? I even tried making it so small. Imgur isn't working here and I tried postimg no luck.
