TheMyrdin: we could let it be their problem. If you declare war on the beastmen the wood elves will like you more
kakmize: But Elves are always so reasonable.
SilasLunark: IIRC the beastman will beeline you
AugmentingPath: Yeah, they haven't spawned in yet
TheMyrdin: they haven't mustered yet have they?
SilasLunark: So you can let them come to you
SilasLunark: We might wanna get some more units tho I dont think we have a full stack
AugmentingPath: Nordland appears to be Ogres now
SilasLunark: Nordland fell down some stairs
TXC2: so Nordland is free real estate you're saying? Kappa
silenceaux: Kinda horrifying tbh
SilasLunark: And into an ogres mouth
SilasLunark: Ogres can eat rocks for nourishment. They eat sentients for the fun of it
AugmentingPath: Golg and Festus are both big boy factions, so it might be good to deal with the Brayherd before starting war with either
TXC2: surely rocks are for gizzards?
Voidhawk42: I see that LRMtG is next on the schedule. Arena is down for at least the next hour for maintenance, is there some other kind of thing happening?
tyrsredritehand: Like featherless cassowary?
TXC2: Voidhawk42 MtGO is a thing
SilasLunark: Fair! Fun stream tho
TXC2: thanks for streaming Cameron
AugmentingPath: Fair enough. Thanks very much for the stream, it was great fun to see you play some total warhams
Marsclas: you can try fighting the green skins at the black pit, they are at war with Laurelorn and would improve your relation with them
SilasLunark: I hope we can return to this sometime
Invitare: unless you've been playing the long game, and you're actually a consummate liar
Marsclas: it was a great stream to watch!
TXC2: it's a natural venn diagram
TheMadChicken: god that name is such a miss, and I get it, branding and such
SilasLunark: I didnt 100% total war warhammer 2 what are you talking about
TheMadChicken: but god it should have just been total warhammer
Manae: Sounds like my wife and accounting
ContingentCat: I'm glad you're a bad liar then
TXC2: Cameron Launder is a name you'd never hear until he was 55 and running for governor
TXC2: "so what are you thinking right now?"
iris_of_ether: Kippa
Manae: She didn't have the lack of ethics to be in finance at a major company
mckblitz: Mood. Apparently I have a "lying face" every time I try'
dimirious: Oh no
TheMadChicken: my parents were super strict so I learned how to lie at a young age
TheMyrdin: "How are the people in Middenheim doing?" "They're doing their best"
TheMadChicken: bye bye!
ContingentCat: thanks Cam lrrHEART
Whisle: cheers, thanks for the stream!
Marsclas: thank you!

Strebenherz: @Juliamon Ah one s ty LUL
Spritz_T: d&d always contains a little salt
TXC2: No GMO? so Kathleen wasn't part of the Eugenics wars Kappa
iris_of_ether: Since it's digital it's also gluten free
Vinewood_OG: Low carbs, but what if I eat a printed copy? Or is that roughage?
ContingentCat: they were both really good

EvilBadman: Graham about to explain a large expense to Beej

TXC2: hello Micalovits welcome
TXC2: now I'm wondering where my D20s are
Strebenherz: @Micalovits It's down atm
TXC2: we'll know in our hearts
noSmokeFire: @TXC2 it's 10 o'clock. Do you know where YOUR d20s are?
Wolfstrike_NL: Your mom let's you pick 3 Fblithp's?!
Diabore: wait that can happen? a pair and half of the same pair?
WiJohn: Recursive is real good
LJ_Alkes: a second copy knows it's way
Micalovits: Fblthp really knows the way into your pack
TXC2: one is foil?
Diabore: @TXC2 the danitha was foil
Wiliart: pretty art in the 'booster fun' slot?
TXC2: Diabore yeah, I have no idea then
Diabore: @Wiliart iirc booster fun isnt a slot in reality fracture, because the 3 seeded cards
wiigamer1995: is arena still dead?
TXC2: wiigamer1995 yeap
wiigamer1995: dam
Diabore: @wiigamer1995 scheduled to be down for another 30~ minutes
Spritz_T: punching face has become something of a lost art in magic
Strebenherz: I like puppet crafting
Diabore: the wrecko
TXC2: it's Scissors, but for enchantments
Diabore: @TXC2 does that make it rock or paper?
TXC2: Diabore a great question
Strebenherz: I did it to a thopter!
TXC2: well there's black Daniathar
LJ_Alkes: "Your fate ends here" seems like a big commitment to a color
TXC2: Black Danitha or Blanitha if you will
TheMadChicken: frosty the hunt is how i am going to call that card from now on
DMGlol: white has a really good make 3 tokens card
TheMadChicken: rewarded
WiJohn: Lane's open!
TXC2: no one can attack any Jacen we make
TheMadChicken: people havent been big on that axe, but its been great for me
TheMadChicken: puppet crafting for the memes
TheMadChicken: green is WIDE open
boyesie: !card puppet crafting
LRRbot: Puppet Crafting [1G] | Enchantment — Aura | Enchant artifact or non-Aura enchantment / Enchanted permanent is a Construct creature with base power and toughness 5/5 in addition to its other types. / {4}{G}: Return this card from your graveyard to your hand.
TXC2: GOYF!
Diabore: tarmogoyf actually pretty good in this format
TheMadChicken: hes a big dumb idiot
Diabore: its usually a 3/4 or bigger for me
DMGlol: goyf isn't horrible honestly
WiJohn: Okay, a lot of people are going GY stuff
couchboyj: Have ya'll heard the good news that the WotC Union has expanded to R&D and they're pushing for Hasbro to stop pushing for generative AI?
TXC2: couchboyj huge if true
TheMadChicken: green yoshi is great, dece mana sink too
WiJohn: Tenured tethermage is super great
WiJohn: and might be worth splashing
PhoenixMelior: Woo unions!
ghyllnox: \o/
boyesie: Question about goyf and adventure spells, will goyf 'see' the adventure spell on a card and count for 2 card types? Or just the permanent half of the card?
ContingentCat: yay unions!
TXC2: UNION FOREVER
WiJohn: Nice!
TheMadChicken: way of healer is a great pick up
TXC2: boyesie they do not
Spritz_T: good to hear, hopefully they don't get screwed over by Hasbro
Diabore: the only department holding hasbro affloat
ContingentCat: hell yeah rights
boyesie: @txc2 i didnt think so, but i wasnt sure, thank you
WiJohn: Way of the healer plays well with gideon
Diabore: we have no scry/surveil?
TXC2: rights like only 4 sets a year? so that they actually have time to do playtesting? :p
PhoenixMelior: Txc2 4 sets a year? In this economy?
TXC2: that being common is bonkers
TXC2: PhoenixMelior I live in hope
TXC2: BOTH wheeled ?
boyesie: I cant say sureshot sower either, i kept flubbing it at my pre release
PhoenixMelior: Riverwheel aerialists
pleonasticTautology: just came in on "we always test for mouthfeel" and uhhhhhhh
TXC2: !addquote (Kathleen) [now] We always test for mouthfeel.
LRRbot: New quote #9683: "We always test for mouthfeel." —Kathleen [2026-10-07]
TheMadChicken: is sureshot shower just its nickname at this point
TheMadChicken: a single kitesail isnt bad
TriforceDrummer: You mean the company that made Asmoranomardicadaistinaculdacar didn't necessarily test for how it felt to say Sureshot Sower?
WalrusOntheCourt: Always puppetcraft your mouthfeel.
PhoenixMelior: Nobody is in green
TheMadChicken: shes great with yoshi
SonofThoth: Resets traxos too
WiJohn: Guidra!
SonofThoth: And the way enchantments
TheMadChicken: oh damn
TXC2: so white is TURBO Open
TheMadChicken: this seat is popping
TriforceDrummer: That pack was kinda crazy with Guiding Hydra and both Vraskas
couchboyj: Some banger art on the alt arts in this set. And on the regular cards. Banger art all over the place.
TXC2: why are we making the recruits German? Kappa
Spritz_T: i got really lucky with midweek magic this week and got the japanese alt art for llanowar elves
couchboyj: Crier is just a real solid card.
DMGlol: blessed ghoul is great
TheMadChicken: this really highlights when i dont crack packs on arena. randomly getting alt art stuff is cool on MTGO
GreatGodOm: MTGO? What is this? a circa 2014 comedy draft?
WiJohn: Refute is actually okay this format
couchboyj: Refute is OK main cause it hits Jace
TriforceDrummer: It can exile a Jace token if nothing else
Micalovits: I mean, is this Bo3? If so colour hate is decent
boyesie: Refute hits PWs so can remove jace tokens
Spritz_T: @WiJohn arena be down, yo
TriforceDrummer: She can find Ferocity of the hunt if nothing else
TXC2: eye of jace is great In the W/U deck
ober85: @Spritz_T Ahhh no wonder no one is streaming it
boyesie: Yeah the white/blue surveil deck makes incredible use of eye
Akaiatana: Does Austerity Command destroy all treasures?
PhoenixMelior: 2
ContingentCat: 4
Strebenherz: 3
PhoenixMelior: Sick
Wiliart: 1
GreatGodOm: Still better than the US health system.
TXC2: Akaiatana it says ALL artefacts, so yes
noSmokeFire: thank you for reminding me about the line in Dracula where Van Helsing tries to prepare the squad for, quote, "carnal attack"
LostThePirate: Just tuned in; are we hearing bits of Pizza Island 3 or Magic stuff?
TriforceDrummer: How much scry/surveil do you have?
Rgontownik: germinate recruits is very hard to get value from
GreatGodOm: Germinate recruits seems bad. How are we gaining enoguh life to make it worth it?
TXC2: LostThePirate Pizzamas
Micalovits: How many historics do we have for traxos?
TriforceDrummer: Saheeli cares about scry/surveil right?
lamina5432: came in late is arena down?
Rgontownik: yes it’s down
lamina5432: o7
couchboyj: That's *almost* as good as the common land cycler, albeit at 1 less mana
ober85: Germinate seems like its a constructed card not a limited card
GreatGodOm: Bloombrute activation. For a mere 9 mana
Rgontownik: blessed ghoul has impressed
Micalovits: Oh right, artifact or creature - thinking about the weird one from DOM
Mr_Horrible: mildly easier to untap than its last incarnation, although a less impressive stat line
TriforceDrummer: Gets back Guiding Hydra which seems good
GreatGodOm: Sureshot sower is the worst of our cretures. IMO
GreatGodOm: Creatures*
TriforceDrummer: Saheeli maybe
chrislee123456: Hi
ghyllnox: Hey sweet!
ContingentCat: cool
LostThePirate: I bought the 2-pack last year; guess I better get 3!
Akaiatana: Speaking of getting some one shots, it's vaccine time of year
Spritz_T: probably not worth it
Wiliart: It's hard to activate, and the enters tapped is a real cost
TXC2: yeah, feels to mono green for this deck
Mr_Horrible: Valakut never paid off in limited and neither will Roiling Canopy
Akaiatana: It only would have worked if we forest mono-green

Mr_Horrible: at least once
Mr_Horrible: for old time's sake
Riiiiiiis: Do you still have some Warhammer / TotalWar ..tags.. idunno what they're called, set on the stream ?
TXC2: well Penelope isn't here to hit F6 by mistake
Mr_Horrible: but the *memories*, G
GreatGodOm: Oh. Me neither. Definitely not. Kappa
TXC2: and this is why I never keep 2 landers on arena
XavusGaming: Yeah that's what I was saying. Bounce dog for fights with lifelink :)
TheMadChicken: jerks
XavusGaming: Nooooo
TXC2: booo :p
Mr_Horrible: in the cadence of "smush that cat": "bounce that dog"
TheMadChicken: now hydra is clear to drop
boyesie: Bounce memory trap next turn?
couchboyj: Rescue girl saving the stray Yoshimaru is wholesome in theory and gross in practice.
GreatGodOm: Op doesn't want that dog in them.#
TXC2: !card rescue girl
LRRbot: Rescue Girl, First Responder [2W] | Legendary Creature — Human Cleric [1/3] | Flying / {T}: Return another target permanent you control to its owner's hand. Activate only during your turn.
Riiiiiiis: WB LRRbot

A_Dub888: @TXC2 LRRbot couldn't handle my sub

Thalx__: i think denying them 3 cards is good too
Diabore: make sure to bounce hydra immediately so it doesnt eat a removal
boyesie: @jibkat jace made a multiverse without big bads in, as a consequence some characters got weird 'alternate universe' versions, massacre girl became rescue girl, another one is tiny bones becoming titan bones
WiJohn: You could bounce the trap this turn
boyesie: @jibkat lilians became a white card aswell
WiJohn: then next turn hydra x1 and recast the bestial
Mr_Horrible: just make sure the hydra is at least x=2, so it can survive removing a counter
TXC2: and Chandra became a cop
Rgontownik: you’re welcome
jibkat: I assume you are talking magic stuff I suppose
TXC2: jibkat magic story stuff yes
WiJohn: @Mr_Horrible Oh right it's a 1/0, I always think it's a 0/1
Rgontownik: can swing with fat lifelinker
Datnade012: so why are the good guys destroying the Echoverse? is it invading the main universe?
TXC2: they do have a deathtoucher
Micalovits: @Datnade012 Pretty much
Akaiatana: @Datnade012 He is overwriting it
TXC2: Datnade012 Jace's plan is to Overlay it onto the real Verse
Datnade012: @Micalovits gotcha, thanks y'all
TheMadChicken: jace is doing short sighted things??? what is this, magic the gathering?
Rgontownik: now we just pick up trap and exile deahtougher. pump team and swing all
Mr_Horrible: at a certain point we can also just start leaving Rescue Girl back, since she does fly
Mr_Horrible: and will be big enough to eat the the bluejaces
Mr_Horrible: can still guidra for 2
GreatGodOm: Sharing this cause I know it will be apprecaited here. I'm playing Moist Von Lipwig in a community theatre production of Going Postal in November.
Mr_Horrible: you'll get the trigger and can return it next turn
TheMadChicken: you got a lot of value out of it if they want to kill it
Mr_Horrible: I think we're mostly on pressure game now
Diabore: fuck
TXC2: boooooo
Cptasparagus: Invisible Kathleen!
Mr_Horrible: well I wasn't expecting that, I'll be honest
TheMadChicken: well poop
TheMadChicken: we do have a 4/4 in the bin still
WiJohn: Very splashy format
Joecool190: wow that was greedy of them
Mr_Horrible: irksome
averythetiger: To be fair, Murmuring Volume is kinda the best manalith ever.
TXC2: and yet it might win them the game
Spritz_T: they're just missing black
A_Dub888: choose TWO???
Diabore: well, game 2 will surely go better
Datnade012: choose 2?!?
GreatGodOm: So double white. And double red in a simic deck? Checks out.
TheMadChicken: that card is a mistake, yes
SubAccount7: This seems bad
Spritz_T: that's quite a turn
TXC2: and that's why I don't like board wipes
Diabore: pitch memorial to kill cadet to live at 1
WiJohn: 4 color soup is very doable with the cyclers and duals
averythetiger: @Diabore 7+2=9
Diabore: right, bird is a 2
TXC2: counts as James' loss that why right? Kappa
WiJohn: Bird dead!
Diabore: why is bird a 2
TXC2: Bye Graham
TXC2: Hello James
Diabore: @averythetiger brain said bird is a 1/2 for reasons
TheMadChicken: JAMES they have a sweeper splash
tsp397: Hi James
TehAmelie: hiya
SubAccount7: James fix it
GreatGodOm: @Diabore It has ddefender. It's not like it can attack. Kappa
averythetiger: Get your mind out of the Storm Crow!

NorthArc: didnt g rebind it to a?
TehAmelie: i prefer a clock over MTGA's vibes based timer tbh
A_Dub888: is it working?
averythetiger: Surveils
Akaiatana: Surveiled
wulfram77: Jace put it in the graveyard
lamina5432: not a lot of single blue counters in this set I think
averythetiger: They sided in color hate!
Spritz_T: eww
averythetiger: It goes in the memory hole
wulfram77: 20 turn clock
averythetiger: But Danitha makes it draw a card!
LinguineGenie: !card yoshimaru
LRRbot: Did you mean: Yoshimaru, Ever Faithful; Isamaru and Yoshimaru; Yoshimaru, Beloved Companion; Yoshimaru, Scrappy Stray
averythetiger: Green Yoshimaru is a dog of the people
Dalrint: I walk away for ten minutes and graham mutates into James!
Dalrint: Hmm. Now I'm concerned for my brain.
Diabore: fbl first if you do both
averythetiger: Or do him for 2 and play the land
BandsWithLegends: why not fblthp for 2 first
Spinballwizard: @Dalrint Does that mean it's Graham with James' abilities or James with Graham's?
TehAmelie: James just took over after Graham went down by 1 and half the clock. someone did the other a favor there but i don't know who. . .
Diabore: game over?
Armoric: Do we really want to trade the dog when it could grow the 2/4 later?

Diabore: thats good
BrowneePointz: X=Yes
aitsu100: welp
Spritz_T: aww
averythetiger: At least it was the hard counter
Armoric: So they're playing RR GG UU and WW costs in a single deck?
LurkerSpine: this set looks awful
aitsu100: i really enjoy it
LurkerSpine: I've lost taste for battlecruiser magic
ilovebrownies3: @Armoric they seem to have the fixing for it
BrowneePointz: SoS
boyesie: This was the most fun ive had at a PR this year
wulfram77: Strixhaven
Spritz_T: strix
Wiliart: Strixhaven
Spinballwizard: I wish we were drafting it longer tbh
Armoric: @ilovebrownies3 That RW dual in a base UG deck tho...
BrowneePointz: Honestly for a small set TMNt was quite good
BrowneePointz: I’m excited for Atlanta so we get a first look at Nauctis, cuz I’m more interested in a brand new plane than Trek tbh
aitsu100: it can be bomby but it also seems very close with just about every deck archetype so the non bomb games feel close
Diabore: i know its a long ways off, im really excited for zhalfir
Diabore: probably my number 1 for next year
aitsu100: titan breach is what i looking forward to the most
BrowneePointz: I’m also biased cuz I’ve been trying to concept an oceanic/waterworld dominated D&D world for YEARS so Nauctis had me like loaPlotting
EvilBadman: Just a little bonus MTGO time to remind you the type of sickos playing MTGO drafts Kappa
TheMerricat: Did they pick Wednesday Morning because they assume all their playerbase would be at their places of work right now?
XavusGaming: Maybe unpopular opinion but I think the middle of the work week during the day is exactly the time to do a large, potentially breaking update.
Spritz_T: probably better than the evening at least
XavusGaming: Both because player base is less likely playing, and because the employees are probably working and able to respond to issues.
BrowneePointz: They’re very YA YA stuff so makes sense
Juliamon: !pizzamas
LRRbot: Kathleen has written a NEW D&D one-shot for this year's Pizzamas fundraiser! Pick up a copy here: https://pizzamas.com/collections/all-products/products/2026-pizzamas-ttrpg

BrowneePointz: We need Darrington Press to pay Kathleen to write a Daggerheart adventure
BrowneePointz: Cmon world make it happen
TehAmelie: i always like to compare with Eve Online for server maintenance standards. they have the single biggest game server in the world, and they take it down for 1 hour a day per schedule (though it's rarely even 10 minutes)
ghyllnox: I believe this is the link for indicating you support the unionization: https://actionnetwork.org/forms/uwotcpetition/
BrowneePointz: Ope did I miss a fun earlier ttrpg discussion during the stream?

lamina5432: signing a lot of petitions lately
BrowneePointz: Oooooooh
lamina5432: well 2 in a few weeks now which is rare given I don't sign many if at all usually
LurkerSpine: tarmo and rescue?
Mr_Horrible: you don't *have* to take the counter off, as well
XavusGaming: I think you "may" remove the counter, but probably not worth exposing it to interaction
DAC169: hi Graham! aipWave
BrowneePointz: But yea just trying to manifest that into the world cuz I think DH as a ttrpg system is 100% up Kathleen(and the rest of LRR’s honestly) Alley
ContingentCat: welcome back G
vibratingsheep: oh I thought Graham was just going to make a grahameo
TehAmelie: watch your back James!
Juliamon: Tarmo and Rescue Girl at Tanagra
Datnade012: yay, back up to 20

BrowneePointz: Voyager isn’t bad, just uneven
Ms_LadyMix: It me, I loved VOyager
jacqui_lantern234: voyager? i hardly know her :P
Juliamon: Voyager gets more shit than it really deserves
Mr_Horrible: we love-a da first strike
BrowneePointz: It’s worst parts is just lack of consistency, and Neelix. God I can’t stand Neelix
ladyjessica: Ooo awesome point to come into the stream talking about voyager O_o
dumbo3k: Hi Graham! lrrGRAHAM Hi Kathleen! lrrKATHLEEN Hi Chat!
kaffeetrinken89: Voyager is different. I like exploration more, that's why I am a big voy fan.
ladyjessica: Voyager will always will be my favourite
Flyingdelorion: Hail Hydra!
ilovebrownies3: hold up charm to danitha block again?
Mr_Horrible: remind me, will I get shot dead for posting a link?
Mr_Horrible: I can never remember which channels do that and which don't
aitsu100: again
Syntheticuh: does that prevent the card draw
Flyingdelorion: Craftwood crusher is crushing dreams again!
Syntheticuh: ah ok
BrowneePointz: Separate clauses he
BrowneePointz: Ye*
kumatsu: yeah, the Danitha was still a legal target, so it still happens
kumatsu: or wait, the card draw targets?
Syntheticuh: the card draw doesnt target and danitha was hexproof, thats why i was wondering
Zenfear: Big hydra n pray?
Mr_Horrible: @jacqui_lantern234 I had to double-check, because the joke sounded familiar, but Wizard of Barge has a shirt and print with the same bit, if you're unaware and/or that would interest you https://wizardofbarge.com/search?q=three+coffees+no+lunch
Mindfire13: Danitha became an illegal target, removing all targets for the Crusher. Ability fizzled, no card draw
Mr_Horrible: Kathleen, please, Yoshimaru has *always* been good
Syntheticuh: oh neat!
jacqui_lantern234: @Mr_Horrible amazing, thank you for this
Dr_fragenstien: though now attacking with the 7/5 is bad
kumatsu: Doing things, now illegal
Syntheticuh: we are getting junded out :(
LurkerSpine: or the dog?
Zenfear: yashi figght hold prio counter on it for the fight?
LurkerSpine: kill the dog so they can't pump?
BrowneePointz: Upside, this is a powerful format. Downside, this is a powerful format
Datnade012: I won my pre-release with the red Ajani. Never dropped a match. Card is busted
BrowneePointz: Red Ajani has one of the highest limited win rates of all time atm I think
BrowneePointz: Someone did number crunching
BrowneePointz: It’s like 62-63% or something like that
Dr_fragenstien: that's probably worth it
LurkerSpine: they conceded there? wow
Dr_fragenstien: nice
jacqui_lantern234: ayo 6-7? :P
TehAmelie: everyone fears the hydra eh
Syntheticuh: you know, i rewatched the scary movies before the recent one and that whole "take my strong hand" meme doesnt actually happen in that scene
Datnade012: like i cant believe the card lets you get a 2/2 when you use a loyalty ability. Clear the board, get a 2/2. Draw 3-4 cards, get a 2/2.
Syntheticuh: which is what you were referencing i think. was shocked
jacqui_lantern234: look at how they rescued my girl! :P
TehAmelie: @Datnade012 and that's just its self-synergy
jacqui_lantern234: octillian beez nutz
ShaneLeeAtk: Too many bees, by an order of an octillion
TehAmelie: it must get preposterous if you have a bunch of planeswalkers
couchboyj: Damn G
xantos69: Hey G. How goes the Magic?
Akaiatana: love a little quasi-modo
Datnade012: @TehAmelie i had it out with the green legendary enchantment that lets you make 4/4. so i made a stompy and a 2/2 lol
Mr_Horrible: @Datnade012 I've been seeing some folks try to cook up a good shell around it + Elspeth Stormslayer in standard, yeah
BrowneePointz: So I just double checked, and as of 2 days ago on 17lands(noting that stats aren’t a whole picture) Ajani Unrelenting has a 73.5% win rate, the last thing near that high was Ouroboroid in EoE at 70, and most sets are lucky to have ONE bomb above 63% @LoadingReadyRun
BrowneePointz: It’s an ABSOLUTELY ridiculous limited card

xantos69: Well, if you hit your 2 drops that normally goes well.
Datnade012: @Mr_Horrible ooohh, that would be sick
Akaiatana: Ajani B Good
Mr_Horrible: Graham "Statistically Unlikely" Stark
Dr_fragenstien: could you return the Ferocity to move it around to where you need it?
tsp397: Graham is the 26.5%
BrowneePointz: Graham “Built Different” Stark
BrowneePointz: Graham hit Ajani with his well practiced Steiner Math
jacqui_lantern234: @tsp397 26.5 is the number of feet tall he is Kappa
Datnade012: famous last words
SolarBlitz1: Just got back from my own draft tonight, first at our LGS since EoE, and it's such a fun set
jacqui_lantern234: none cards left beef
maywecomein: Random thing: the folks at Meta are up to something, because LRR profiles are all of a sudden being recommended to me in the “people you may know” module (so far, Graham, James and Jeremy)
Dr_fragenstien: topdeck wars go!
Cptasparagus: thicc saheeli
TehAmelie: yay Kathleen!
BrowneePointz: @maywecomein There was also recently massive combining/aligning FB and Insta
Dr_fragenstien: I think taking their 4 power creature off the board was still the right move
jacqui_lantern234: but kathleen! 3 coffees no lunch!!! :P
Redbassist: 1 weird trick your body hates
Datnade012: Top 5 secrets your body doesn't want you to know!
maywecomein: @BrowneePointz ahh that’d do it I guess
SolarBlitz1: I'm loving the Echoverse versions of everyone
BrowneePointz: Yknow what they say, you can’t spell Subtext without letters
bytecaster: Greetings everybody, I see we have pulled out ye ol' MTGO.
BrowneePointz: @bytecaster Arena is at the doctor
SolarBlitz1: Like it's falling down stairs
TehAmelie: they said Arena could be back up by now, if we care
bytecaster: @BrowneePointz Right, sometimes Arena need hopsital
Redbassist: Iron scaps are very filling
Cptasparagus: *i lean away from the mic to breathe*
BrowneePointz: Ye it sounds like rusty springs which is very funny

AugmentingPath: seems still down, yeah
TheLadyMakai: same here
aitsu100: yeah still down for me also
BrowneePointz: TFT? That reminds me I need to play Deadlock and check out Central Park Baba Yaga
bytecaster: yeah still down here
TheLadyMakai: back to FO 76 i guess
Cptasparagus: @bytecaster it was for me too until I quit blizzard hard after they banned someone from hearthstone for saying Free Hong Kong
SarkhanGluedBackTogether: I even get a down for maintenance notification on the actual myaccounts.wizards.com/ site
idontgetmyrealname: oh no, the mtgo pivot, I guess I won't bother trying to launch arena now that I'm home, huh?

idontgetmyrealname: i did this morning! from my very anti union office, on their internet and hardware
idontgetmyrealname: it's the little things
BrowneePointz: Oh ye Graham, as a film enjoyer have you watched Coyote vs ACME or Resident Evil?
Bruceski: Last update note was "expected to last 8 hours" 9 hours ago. Which, you know, for planned downtime is maybe frustrating but not surprising. These things always go long.
Redbassist: Hell yeah
TheLadyMakai: hubby is part of union now, dad was a union, totally pro union house here!@
EvilBadman: "get" to
xantos69: I have an order in with Card Kingdom right now.
jacqui_lantern234: Card Kingdom: A Union of Workers

Voidhawk42: @Bruceski The universal law: "Everything takes longer and costs more"
bytecaster: I feel like the bar has been flushed a long time ago.
raulghoulia: do not drink from any toilet bars
Mr_Horrible: I need to get out to RE sometime this week
jacqui_lantern234: that should be a one-inch LRR Button, "Card Kingdom: A Union of Workers" :P

Mr_Horrible: I'm vibrating through the floor waiting for Wildwood sinuuHyper although it unfortunately premieres on the day of DB
Athelgar: it was wonderful
Spritz_T: to be fair, the coyote does occasionally speak in the cartoons
jacqui_lantern234: but Wile E Coyote regularly speaks when he faces off against Bugs!
Mr_Horrible: hoping I can get an evening showing the previous day
GapFiller: and sound like him too!
couchboyj: They did a Reddit AMA to promote that movie and every answer was a picture of the Coyote holding up a sign. It was some good fun.
Gekyouryuu: it's a limited number of signs
TehAmelie: (technically, by buying everyone out)
Strebenherz: That was a very good movie
BrowneePointz: I watched it back in film 101 in college
GapFiller: its got Humphrey Bogart and Syndey Greenstreet too!
Jethrain: I am so fascinated to see You Can See Everything if it ever gets a release over here
BrowneePointz: Excellent example of film noir
Strebenherz: I was mixed on john cena being in the movie before i watched it, but you know what? Cena's very VERY good at being an ABSOLUTE HEEL
bytecaster: Not the gydra :O
Fr0Dough: isnt maltese falcon what we get maguffin from
Manae: Maltese Falcon also being a very major example of McGuffin films, isn't it?
GapFiller: Maltese Falcon is aiui the Hollywood McGuffin codifer movie yeh
Mr_Horrible: @Strebenherz honestly I feel like he and especially Bautista have come out way ahead of The Rock in acting chops, I'm generally pleased with his performances
bytecaster: Can we really give up on our beast token if it has supported us for so long already?
ilovebrownies3: attack then yoshi
CaptainSpam: @GapFiller It's the codifier, yes, but I think Hitchcock was the one who named it, in a different context.
Redbassist: Is it Fblthp?
Dr_fragenstien: it was worth it because now they can't cast it
BrowneePointz: Yes Maltese Falcon is a prime MacGuffin film but not the namesake
bytecaster: Hearing the sound effects, my brain cannot help but think "We used to live like this?!?"
BrowneePointz: Angus MacPhail named it I think
CaptainSpam: @bytecaster As I recall, ancient LRR streams with MTGO used to play muted. lrrLUL
xantos69: What is everyone's favorite literally or film MacGuffin? Mine is the Death Star plans.
TehAmelie: did it have sound back then?
GapFiller: oooh Tom Holland
Strebenherz: LOL
Dr_fragenstien: weeel, you have removal for it
Strebenherz: Y'all do good stuff
bytecaster: So how big would the kickstarter need to be for a Friday Nights season produced in IMAX?
Cptasparagus: @TehAmelie sound wasn't invented back then actually
Gekyouryuu: I want a parody noir film to have the detective go out to a fast food place for a "Breakfast MacGuffin Sandwich"
GapFiller: man just imagine what LRR can get upto w/ an IMAX camera
xantos69: I feel like the end of that sentence should be "By force if needed"
Manae: Oh, imax, right, I need to pick up tickets for Godzilla
couchboyj: He's with Echoverse Mowu now
BrowneePointz: All Kamigawa Dogs go to the Spirit Realm*

GreatGodOm: Chris Nolan's Odessey was a very long and expensive way of saying that social norms are important.
Redbassist: Didn't he?
Mr_Horrible: bro do love Capital C Cinema
Strebenherz: "this amazing solution to a problem i also created" LUL
TrivialEncounters: Woah woah woah this is not bear force 3 Pendragon mtg edition I'm upset
iconicshadow89: so no oners then?
lamina5432: no 10 minute full cuts?
Strebenherz: I was not aware a full reel was three minutes, that's interesting
TheLadyMakai: IMAX is still shot on physical film? forgive my ignorance
Mr_Horrible: it was something I didn't really notice in the theater, personally, but I think that was just the scale + the edit
bytecaster: But what if he made the camera even bigger to allow for bigger reels!
boyesie: I think its funny, that the translator of the version he used as his inspiration, said it wasnt a *great* interpretation of her work, and she is now working on a new/updated translation
goombalax: oh I didnt realize my Arena problems were system wide
Mr_Horrible: it's a Nolan film with Nolan writing sinuuSmug
Diabore: chat go join the draft to make an 8th
TrivialEncounters: Ur interesting
TheMerricat: Chat, remember when a scene in a movie could just be 5+ minutes of two people sitting down and talking to each other? No cuts, no jumps, just a shot of two people for more than 30 seconds.
Redbassist: Apparent???
Strebenherz: SEEMS LIKE MAGIC??
lamina5432: hollywood can't believe anymore
CaptainSpam: "In a world where I guess there's magic, i dunno wtf is going on"
xantos69: But we the audience literally SEE MAGIC happen on screen in this film.
Cptasparagus: magic, as was the style at the time
Mr_Horrible: now see, I *do* appreciate that touch, dovetailed with the fact that the gods aren't directly present (for the most part)
Diabore: thanks chat
couchboyj: Scientifically explainable gods and cyclopses and such
Gekyouryuu: they apparently had to halt filming at one point because a rainbow was pointing directly at the castle and they didn't want that
Strebenherz: @Gekyouryuu lrrSPOOP lrrFRUMP
bytecaster: Any goose COULD be Zeus!
Mr_Horrible: "I think we made Poseidon mad" *cut to The Loudest Storm In Cinema History*
Strebenherz: @Gekyouryuu BUT THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A GREAT SHOT?
GreatGodOm: Cerci does some magic. Nothing apparent about that.
Voidhawk42: Happy Koth is also quite good
Mr_Horrible: @Gekyouryuu a bit on the nose, but I also get it
LRRbot: If you see something funny or particularly noteworthy, make a Clip of it! Your clip could appear in a fortnightly video or be seen at https://www.twitch.tv/loadingreadyrun/clips (Named clips with no autocaptions are preferred but not required!)

goombalax: Apparent Magic: The Smattering
bytecaster: I like big bones and I cannot lie
Diabore: tinybones, take all the rank rats you see, go 1-2
Mr_Horrible: the Laestrygonians just eat a lot of clean whey protein sinuuSmug
Mr_Horrible: no I will not look up how to spell that
EvilBadman: You are approached by two Magic players, one likes big bines and is unable to lie...
bbblehh: I think Traxos looks cool does that count for anythibg
Mindfire13: What if we did the same deck, but better this time
bytecaster: Titanbones! Titanbones!
Strebenherz: Also G if you feel shy about rambling about film opinions please bear in mine the nope boys yap constantly. Please, yap away
Joecool190: i like big bone too
Voidhawk42: Also (spoilers for a thousands of years old story) doesn't it end with literally Athena turning up and solving the problem? Like, Deus Ex Machina was something the Greeks just did in stories - when they got too complicated, a God would arrive and fix it
bytecaster: What about big see monster though?!
bytecaster: *sea
BrowneePointz: Speaking of things that actually maintain whimsy while also wishing to maintain a sense of Grounding, if you haven’t seen Lanterns yet Graham, it’s very VERY good
Gekyouryuu: oh, I'm sure it's already been discussed today, but i look forward to the TTC episode discussing the changes to boosters starting next year
goombalax: I am stunned every time I see those lands
lamina5432: the 6 mana 3 2/2's is a good finisher in the blue white deck
Gekyouryuu: @BrowneePointz i hope that's true. I've only seen people complaining about it ruining John's character
jacqui_lantern234: TeyOwO
BrowneePointz: @Gekyouryuu From folks whose opinions on media I respect(like Wiggins) I’ve heard nothing but glowing praise
ArkhamArchivist: poor tooL
ilovebrownies3: blue seems to be the right lane
Wiliart: I got hard locked by a plan for all outcomes and a rescue girl at my prerelease.
Gekyouryuu: @BrowneePointz that's encouraging
xantos69: In limited, Archive Arbiter seems good. Nukes lots of stuff and gets in for damage in the air.
boyesie: @Gekyouryuu Its incredible, its such a good show
Voidhawk42: You can also maindeck them and sideboard them out, which is actually quite effective when you have surviel and looting
TehAmelie: i'm still trying to deal with the realization Odysseus could have walked home in about 3 days. but sure, he had no reason not to save a little time with a boat.
BrowneePointz: Lanterns was bringing in 19m viewers an EPISODE which is not something that has happened in years.
idontgetmyrealname: I have very mixed feelings about Lanterns, but landed pretty positive on it, despite the Tom King of it all
boyesie: Lanterns was the best new show ive watched for years
lamina5432: esper gamer?
Feriority: This seems like a format with good enough fixing that esper is doable
xantos69: Love me a good basic landcycler.
bytecaster: All the shorts platforms want me to watch lanterns
bytecaster: Which natural makes me resistant to the notion
xantos69: Will need some fixing lands, but this can work.
RatherLargeToad: From what I’ve heard, Lanterns sounds like a good show, but I’m not sure if it’s a good Green Lantern comic book show, which, to be fair, I don’t think they were trying to do
Mr_Horrible: esper my last email
boyesie: Im a huge Lanter Corps comics fan, and there hasnt been a lantern story i havent picked up in the last 15 years, i loved the show, i loved what it does with the characters and the lore behind them and Corps
Feriority: Yargle and bad Yargle
Feriority: You can decide which is which
BrowneePointz: If anything Lanterns made me realize Kyle Chandler is actually a very talented actor who has been stuck with some very shit projects and directors over his career
boyesie: @RatherLargeToad No, its not a comic book show, its a mystery show themed around the GL
RatherLargeToad: @boyesie I’ve heard it be compared to True Detective
Feriority: Volume is very good fixing
Dog_of_Myth: @BrowneePointz From what I've seen, I hope this gets him more roles. He was great in that show.
ilovebrownies3: She's more for GW
BrowneePointz: @RatherLargeToad the show runners and writers have explicitly said Lanterns is inspired by True Detective and Slow Horses
lamina5432: galta?
boyesie: @ratherlargetoad ive not watched a huge amount of TD, but from what i have seen, yeah, i can see that
Gekyouryuu: Graham, if we open a Cursemarred Demon, we need to force the red splash, just so we can call the deck Proctor and Gamble. lrrBEEJ
boyesie: @browneepointz Kyle Chandler is so good as Hal in it
Spritz_T: oh dear
Strebenherz: @Gekyouryuu benginLUL benginLUL benginLUL
Dog_of_Myth: That is good @Gekyouryuu
RatherLargeToad: @BrowneePointz you’d think they’d rather have fast horses instead OSFrog
Voidhawk42: Shatterwing Pegasus also just kills people
Voidhawk42: Like, alot
Mr_Horrible: is Rat above or below Bronze in the rankings
RatherLargeToad: Having both Ghaltas is fun. Can cheat in the white one off the green one
satyropodobny: is there a casual rat
Cptasparagus: @BrowneePointz by Slow Horses are they just saying that because "drunk angry boss"
cmdrud87: sphinges' approach^^
SAJewers: video titles, but not videos? Kappa
NotCainNorAbel: Our Nez don't work
Strebenherz: Thic yarg
tidehollowcat: It showed up in my notifications as one thing, and in my recommendations as another.
phoenixfeather14: I saw the "noses are broken" version
Cptasparagus: I don't like their ABC testing only because sometimes i'll see a different title for the same video in the sidebar recommendations while i'm watching a video and its confusing

Akaiatana: Descenting Opinions
Juliamon: I saw the lemon one earlier, now it's the broken noses one
bbblehh: Oh hey it's showing me the "Our nez don't work"
Tweygoh: “Our Nez Don’t Work” is the one I got
Gekyouryuu: LRR Nez du cafe
Mr_Horrible: I just got a notif on my phone for the Lemons title
EvilBadman: "What does Lemon smell like" here
boyesie: 'What does lemon smell like' on the notification 'lrr realises our noses dont work' on the actual video
Mr_Horrible: now I'm curious what the YT app vs the YT desktop site will have for me
Bruceski: You can attack both a player and a Jace at the same time, even, and if the creature attacking the player is the only one they get double strike
TehAmelie: i've only seen Our Nes Don't Work while i've idly checked youtube four times
Gekyouryuu: Yuriko seems great for a Jin Sakai deck
ilovebrownies3: I feel like removal is so important in this set, because it's grindy, and bomb heavy
SarkhanGluedBackTogether: evil proft is great with revival
bytecaster: Proftiatiy
bytecaster: We do enjoy a creepy peepy in here, historically
TehAmelie: now i figured it out, Theoretical Necromancer resurrects dead theories, like miasma theory
maywecomein: logged out on my phone, webapp is the same as on the app (our nez don't work). incognito window on my desctop, "what does lemon smell like?"
maywecomein: wait a second are we in the Fallen Empires of YT videos?

xantos69: That is rounding error
lamina5432: did you hear about the even bigger A/B testing is being put in? With entire portions of the video changing?
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @maywecomein in that there are multiple arts???
Bruceski: I appreciate you picking your owh title options instead of "my title" vs "AI selection". I've seen a lot of A/B tests where one of the options is so clearly not in the person's voice that it's disorienting.
Jethrain: I honestly really dislike the A/B testing stuff for "the same thing showing up as different things in my feed on different days"
maywecomein: @thedepthandbreadthofseth my analogy doesn't survive that level of scrutiny!
ilovebrownies3: "this is not just a video, it's an experience"
EvilBadman: Yeah, we want HUMAN lies
Juliamon: We HAVE a House of Lies at home
lamina5432: yeah seems like a bad idea
maywecomein: (but i guess multiple thumbnails is more analogous)
bytecaster: What if we A/B test the whole website next, sometimes you get twitch, sometimes you get youtube, but you never know at the start
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Hi @LoadingReadyRun G & K. how're things in the Stark DeVere household?
Juliamon: yeah that's super fucked up
Athelgar: i immediately 'dont recommend' any thumbnail that looks modified by GenAi
boyesie: The only time that works, is with the Clue movie
MrPipboy3000: Yea, thats fine for the movie Clue, but not videos
CaptainSpam: Next, A/B thumbnails which are just one of you standing in front of a giant letter A or B. lrrLUL
chaostreader: I’ve liked the use of different language audio tracks to do different things like commentary or music only on songs.
maywecomein: new subscription tier -- Youtube: Rashomon
RatherLargeToad: YouTube just wants to introduce the Mandela Effect to more people OSFrog
petey_vonwho: I see a bunch of cutable blue cards
Voidhawk42: @MrPipboy3000 I expect the next Crapshoot to end with "Communism was just a Red Herring!"
CaptainSpam: You'd just need to make a video where random letters of the alphabet would work nicely as thumbnails...
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @MrPipboy3000 I love clue! RIP Tim Curry, Madelyn Kahn, and why not, Martin Mull.
Armoric: Could easily splash a couple cards if needed with 3x landcyclers tho
kristof162028: Hey graham which platform r u playing mag8c 9n arena 9r mtgo?
MrPipboy3000: @kristof162028 Arena down for maintenance
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @Voidhawk42 Like all members of the oldest profession..
A_Dub888: A deckmaster game. As Richard Garfield intended
SarkhanGluedBackTogether: but once we do start casting these 6-drops, oh baby
MrPipboy3000: @thedepthandbreadthofseth Gene Parmisean!!!
thedepthandbreadthofseth: so, where are y'all that you aren't in the same meet/meat space?
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @MrPipboy3000 I should try again on Arrested Development.
thedepthandbreadthofseth: I dnf'ed
bytecaster: School, on school days, surely not?!
DoctorHutch: sat down, clicked on arena, poped open the stream, arena log in pops up, type in password, get error, immediately hear an MTGO sound effect on the stream that just opened.... well that explains that
MrPipboy3000: I think it hold up ... just don't bother withthe netflix seasons
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Seth-son just turned 9, so Penelope is turning 11??
lamina5432: I just got an empty fortune cookie, does that mean I have no future?
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @lamina5432 No news is good news?
bytecaster: Breaking news: Arena has let me into a game!
thedepthandbreadthofseth: WHAT?!? I'm in!
bytecaster: Look, I am just the messenger!
bbblehh: Well at least Graham is getting some more MTGO practice for the next Vintage Cube stream
EvilBadman: If it's any consolation, I think you'd be stuck with last week's 3:55pm draft, if memory serves
bbblehh: (Please tell me there's gonna be more Vintage Cube stream)
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @EvilBadman I loved that one.
SarkhanGluedBackTogether: I too have successfully logged into Arena, and it has stonks
bytecaster: Celebratory stonks!
lamina5432: I haven't arenad in a few years and this set is tempting me
bbblehh: Awesome!!!
bytecaster: Classic magic with extra Jace!
DAC169: Jace the Set

Voidhawk42: Like the film Edge of Tomorrow with Tom Cruise. Like him, he's in it! Hate him? Watch him die a hundred times!
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Omnijacence
Datnade012: so who is the big bad now? The Eldrazi?
RatherLargeToad: Jace is the place with the helpful hardware folks
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @Datnade012 Tez?
KaleidoscopeMind: she deserves big nap
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Wait, there is still an Bolas?
Buxx345: super din din plus dessert
Datnade012: Oh so we're just cycle through BBEG's now
bbblehh: @thedepthandbreadthofseth Bolas escaped after Tarkir Dragonstorm IIRC
EbDorian: I have my unopened RF prerelease pack, but my friend hasn't got their secretlair bundle yet, so I'm very excited to play with some of these cards soon shelzeLonking
xantos69: It asks the question "What is a villain?" Because everybody is the villain to somebody and everyone is the hero of their own tale.
EvilBadman: @Datnade012 hahah "now" good one
HesGotNoPants: so is jace finally dead dead?
Gekyouryuu: Valgavoth still exists as a possible threat, right?
bbblehh: (Because of Jace's meddling, I might add)
RatherLargeToad: @Datnade012 Whatever that thing was at the end of EoE, Bolas, Fomori, Valgavoth, Glarb OSFrog, Eldrazi, etc
Datnade012: @EvilBadman im here all week
Athelgar: Evil Ral is out there
Athelgar: surely he wont mess with stuff on Ravnica in the next few years...
Voidhawk42: @HesGotNoPants Well, Tam is some parts of Jace. So something of him has survived, kinda
boyesie: @hesgotnopants kinda, mostly, his spark went to tam, and she very much has his mannerisms now
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Fomori now, please! Finally.
Gekyouryuu: @Athelgar did he not disappear with the echoverse?
Datnade012: @HesGotNoPants WotC will find a way to bring him back in a few years
xantos69: @Datnade012 If they do that... Then give me Dack Fayden: The greatest giver in the multiverse.
Feriority: I like both 4/4s and the flyer, Thalia blocks really well and Teyo's backup
RatherLargeToad: My hope is that Emrakul got full and left some dopplegangers out there
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Glarb as a big bad is... dubious. Like, I love his moistness as much as the next amphibophile, but, BIG bad?
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Glarb seems real petty.
RatherLargeToad: @thedepthandbreadthofseth Let a toad dream
Datnade012: @xantos69 i mean they will eventually
SolarBlitz1: Thalia lifelink can negate the damage too
RatherLargeToad: I’m still annoyed that they mention echoverse King Glarb but didn’t make a card for him. I imagine he’d be a warrior, conquerer king in red/white
EbDorian: FBtouchdown
TehAmelie: i guess they saw where it was going
KaleidoscopeMind: oh no
thedepthandbreadthofseth: @RatherLargeToad who let's you play small things from your graveyard!
Spritz_T: oof
EbDorian: classic, game 1 LUL
DAC169: PridePog more stream? aipOMG
SaxPython: great TTC btw
RatherLargeToad: I do not hold Jace against Tam
Spritz_T: dead in the superhero comics sense i guess
EbDorian: I like to answer the question with a question: is Venser dead?
phoenixfeather14: the investigator, the nihilist, and a few more I can't remember
Vinewood_OG: He has just become several soundcloud rappers
Cptasparagus: Protojace's awakening?
RatherLargeToad: @EbDorian didn’t the Phyrexians puppet his body?
KaleidoscopeMind: he continues to haunt the narrative
bbblehh: Everyone that said estrogen would fix Jace, was actually kind of right in the end
RatherLargeToad: They left out Space Balaren, though
SaxPython: I do hope we find a Shadow Jace in the future.
bytecaster: Looking forward to "Tam, the Mindsulptor" throwing Modern into chaos
TehAmelie: so he's turned into Sauron and Tam is he ring, more or less?
Wolfii_TV: what about otter beleren?
Datnade012: i ahte Jace's voice on Arena
Datnade012: hate
thedepthandbreadthofseth: He's only mostly dead? Mostly dead is still partly alive.
thedepthandbreadthofseth: Time to raid the castle!
bytecaster: But can we rebuild him, do we have the technology?
Cptasparagus: destroy/marry/kill yuriko/jace/ajani
bytecaster: We can attack if we want to, we can leave Yuriko behind, because these opponents cannot block these creatures of mine.
SaxPython: clap clap clap
KaleidoscopeMind: stonks time!
lamina5432: good strem
Diabore: good news, im back onto arena
TehAmelie: we'll lend you some braces for your servers
SaxPython: lol
thedepthandbreadthofseth: on mic, off camera.
Strebenherz: i ordered on the 30th of august and got a button that said "sorry we're out of buttons" but tbh i'm not even mad, that's funny af xD
thedepthandbreadthofseth: moderate pride preserved, Kathleen.
lamina5432: couple more weeks till DB
LurkerSpine: Cheer100
SaxPython: the jean jacket absolutely rips tho
lamina5432: gni
The_Color_Twelve: oh that is shortly
BraveNewFaves: @SaxPython it is a cool jacket!!
xantos69: Cheer50 Bits
A_Dub888: @BraveNewFaves you're cool
thedepthandbreadthofseth: ty, byby
EbDorian: KonCha
TehAmelie: thanks for the stream
SaxPython: !time
