  1. Do you guys record through soup cans and string? The sound quality really detracts from what is otherwise great content.

  2. The Sealed is especially bad because we recorded out on the porch, but I can’t explain sound quality lapses in the Draft vids. I finally acquired a new computer, and so our recordings should soon have better quality. Apologies for all this, but thanks also for the compliment.

  4. “I think I’ve seen this on a Christian greeting card.”

    I can’t explain how hard I laughed when you said that. Bravo!

  5. You may want to hold off on putting +1/+1 counters on Fog Bank in the future. It accomplishes very little, unless you are trying to stop an additional point of trample damage.

  7. @Jim: That would be the most trivial reason ever to not watch a video. It’s a font on a link…..

    Anyways. love the vids. very entertaining!

  8. It’s not a font, it’s a typeface. My loathe for it is greater than my desire to watch the videos, so the triviality of it is completely subjective.

  9. I would even be happy to create the images for them so as to snuff out another comic sans front.

  10. Hi Jim,

    I’m glad you noticed I chose to use Comic Sans MS as a joke after Simon’s cool slideshow from last week. I was worried no one would notice but hopeful that someone would ask what was up with it so I could remind everyone about how awesome Simon’s thing was.

    In case anyone else was wondering, when making banners, I also struggle to find (1) art appropriate or germane to the videos, (2) art that’s funny-looking or poorly illustrated (see the Wind Drake art above), or (3) art that’s funny-looking and also germane (like Garruk’s pecs and biceps). For instance, I really wanted to draft a Flametongue Kavu in IPA so I could use the Planeshift art in the banner (since I think it’s one of the worst Magic pieces ever made– it looks like they had to edit in the fireball hitting something after the fact because they decided to use art with an originally unspecified purpose on a guy that pounded something for 4).

    Thanks for watching and for your hatred of Comic Sans, which is, I think we can agree, at least better than Sand.

  12. I’ll forgive you if you use Futura, Gill Sans, or any other tasteful typeface next time ^^.
