We need another vote to break the tie for next format!

Done. I had only selected 1 option before.

Thank you, Tevish!

Round 11: Merry-Go-Round
Round closes Sunday, 9 March

If a card would be put into a graveyard, it's put at the bottom of the opponent's library instead.

I just want to emphasize, since I missed this the first time I read this format's rules, that the cards that would go into your graveyard go into your opponent's library, and vice versa.

My deck is in. I think I may have done something right this time.

Exile effects are kind of interesting in how they take resources out of the game entirely, but generally resources that would have been yours if you killed it conventionally.

I think this might be the end of my 3CM run. So far, Tevish is the only person who has submitted a deck. If you guys want me to keep doing this, I'm going to need at least another four or five decks in the next 12 hours.

I can not think of a deck.

Yeah, I really want to keep this going, but this format is particularly difficult to evaluate. I'm worried some of the matchups might be too complex to solve.

Edit: For the record, I submitted something. I'm pretty sure it's going to fall apart against everything, though.

I'll leave it open a bit longer. Now that I actually got some submissions, I'm not as grumpy about it anymore. Who knows, maybe I'll actually update the OP one of these days!

I still think that this floating in a sea of DnD games does not help at all.

These days, even Magic General gets very little activity outside of the Card Chain Game. It's sad, and I don't know what to do, and I wish the mothership forums had never been ruined, and this whole post is off topic, isn't it?

If you want there to be more activity in Magic General, make interesting posts in Magic General. If you want Magic Players to come to PbP, make more Magic-related PbP games. I would do these things myself, but all of my forum-time is split between this thread and AF&S, and I can't really commit more time than I already do.

tevish actually scored 3-3 against me in the last round, on the play he can cast nemesis and then I can't attack unless he attacks first, so I lose the race, this also means that chaoslight won that round.

We still did not get a lot. I have had very spotty internet access this week, otherwise I would have put the round up already. But I think this will indeed be my last. I'll put this round up, compile the total scores, and then I'll retire from hosting 3CM. It's been fun, but I really don't have the time and energy to maintain this consistantly.

You should do one more round, make it a dozen! 11 is an unlucky number to finish on.

Hey everybody, if you're still interested in playing, go let me know by posting in the 3CM Revival Interest Check thread in Magic General. I'm looking to start a new season with myself as the host, but there won't be any point if no one wants to play.

Here, at last, is the round 11 spreadsheet!

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc ... sp=sharing

Once this has been all filled out, I'll compile all the scores and announce this season's 3CM winner! In the meantime, look out for Season 2, with new host CommanderJim!
