I hear "free" is good.

My premium articles from Star City Games remain subscription only for three months. Which means that this years early articles are now available for you to look at for free! Yay! You have to scroll down a half a page to see the beginning of any article you click on. Well, any one that is older than three months. You would be surprised at how much "not Magic" content is in these things. It's always been my style. Even knowing nothing about Magic, you can enjoy many stories in these.

Some of my favorites were -

Picking up chicks on Airplanes

Picking up chicks on Airplanes part II and How would you like to die today?


Spanish Food, Movies and whining about Blue

Philosophy Waldo style.

Next Tuesday, Bringing a Ham Leg to Paris becomes available. Don't miss it.

Also, let me point you to what I think was one of my better articles you might have missed that I wrote when Mare was in Chemo and I was reading Bill Bryson's "A short history of nearly Everything."

    I have to admit Jamie, that's how I've been reading all your starcity content.

    I was reading it each week (Tuesdays?) on the subscription page, then they disappeared. Probably about a month ago. At first I thought you maybe missed a week, but then several weeks in a row went by with nothing. Yours was the only thing I was paying Starcity to read. I dont think they ever put out an explanation saying what happened, but I know you mentioned on this site that they decided to drop you :(

    I find it ridiculous that they drop u like that!:(
    I read other stuff there too, but I was overjoyed every time I saw one of your articles. It was always worth the read.

Army Magic

As requested. Army magic was a variant that the old "Team Quarterstaff" invented years ago and I published an article about it in Scrye. Army Magic: A Multi-Player Variant By Jamie C. Wakefield Axelrod Gunnarson glared out over his barbarous and supernatural army. The foul smelling Karplusan Yeti’s; the Sengir Vampires flying high above; the myriad wizards, clerics and monsters that made up his forces. How the Angels and the Elves held out for so long against him was vexing and inconceivable. He had long ago crushed Palladia-Mors and his Goblins and Dragons. Soon after that, he had defeated the nigh unstoppable Lord of Tresserhorn and his army of Merfolk, Doppelgangers, and Zombies. But still Asmira and her Angels resisted him. If only he could lure them away from her accused Castle, he would have them! But as long as she and her followers remained behind the mystic walls there was little his army could do. For now he would have to wait, and plan. There are many variations fo...

Greed and the One Percenters

It is baffling, and sad, to me that part of the world thinks that profit > all, even at the expense of human dignity.  It gnaws at me every day when I go to a chain gas station or a McDonalds or any other place where I know corporate profits are > everything else in the world. Why can't McDonald's pays its workers more? We all know they can. We all can pay a dime more for a Big Mac. It's like this everywhere. In the UFC, Dana White was brilliant at bringing the sport to mainstream America and generating hundreds of millions of dollars for the Fertitta brothers, who were already billionaires. And even though they could pay their fighters more, they don't. The last payroll for the last event was under a million dollars. The UFC is like the NFL of fighting. The number one organization. Some of the guys that make it there get paid 2k to fight. Meanwhile, Dana and the brothers are gambling away millions at the tables in Vegas.   Yes, I know how the right will respo...

Magic

Wendy and I have just had a long talk. I am getting back into Magic and making a run for the title. My goal this time isn't going to be to get back on the Pro Tour, but to win a Pro Tour. Secret Force: Quest for the Pro Tour II will be available in early June. The reason for this is I need to proof the physical copy of the book that is sent to my house in Vermont and we will be there June 2nd. I will be playing Magic Online until we go home then playing physically anywhere I can find a game while there. When we return to Spain in September I will be playing at a local shop a half kilometer away and writing about playing Spanish Magic with a limited vocabulary.
