Now lets see you pay it forward

I suppose top seed won't be given the option to be on the play

Can you actually set up the game to be on the play? I've NFI how the game sorts that

You could keep restarting the match until the lower seed gets to be on the play. I doubt we would do things like that. This is Duels...we have no sideboard option.

Hakeem, the two hours at the dentist sounds like it was the worst by far of that lot

Ok. Prob better just to let random chance decides who goes first, fk, used to **** me waiting for 30s for someone to join then being on the draw.....

Yeah it takes time for all four of us to get checkups/cleanings done.

gimme a tip, do you make your girl (i refuse to call than angel a demon) go first?

She's an Angel when she's awake and while sleeping. The Demon comes out during the transition between the two.

And no, we go first so they can see that it's not scary.

I'm miserable when I come out of the dentist's office. My dentist sucks. If my girl sees my face, she'll know what's what.

I'm lucky that I don't have a bedtime struggle at all. You have an established routine and bedtime? It's always the same so she knows its inevitable. No games or tv before bed. Bath, silent playtime in her room, jammies, bed with snuggle from daddy and then out.

My son has always been a charm for bedtime. She has always had trouble. He napped every day and she never did. She's a Demon.

So when are the next set of matches? Have they all been arranged, is there a schedule? Inquiring minds want to know. (Lazy minds don't want to read the last few pages to find our answers ;P)

Pairings just went up late last night, no dates set yet.

Didn't you and Tibby test for who gets to play first? Whoever is hosting is usually the one who's on the play.

really? that might explain why mobius can't get on the play, he can't host people for some reason

Has there been research on this? Also, what are the accepted odds in Magic for the "on-the-play"-player to win the game? Maybe 60%? I remember reading sth in the Hearthstone forums long ago that even chess has sth like 55% in favor of white (that's why they implemented the coin, not to mitigate that, but to even get there).

In Duels it feels really odd, I have long streaks of either losing or winning that coin-flip very often.

iirc on the play has about a 56% winrate in magic

I think it was a channel fireball article

My match against Barney is this Saturday at 8pm.

-Covert hasn't been online all week.
-I'm sure Tibalt and King can come up with a weekend game as well.
-Smoky is always online and Hakeem seems to be on every now and then...I'm sure they can come up with something soon.

I literally talked to covert today and played games with him

Also hail I would like to play are match Saturday night if that's cool with you. The later the better I'm ets time
