In other news, cats go miao.
I think we kinda expect this, given Ravnica's history.
Indeed, I still need to read Guildpact and Dissension, but as I recall that was bacially the plot of Ravnica (At least until Agrus was like "LOLGUILDPACT" and deus ex machinaed Szadek into submission).
Although this is still pretty cool.

Everything is better when you read it in Bane's voice.
Your human antics and desire to continue living have moved me. Just kidding. You cannot move me physically or emotionally. Wall humor.
Copy effects work like a photocopy machine: you get a copy of the 'naked' card, NOT of what's on it.
Funny story: InQuest Magazine (I think it was InQuest) had an oversized Chaos Orb which I totally rooked someone into allowing into a (non-sanctioned) game. I had a proxy card that was a Mountain with "Chaos Orb" written on it. When I played it, my opponent cried foul:
Him: "WTF? a Proxy? no-one said anything about Proxies. Do you even own an actual Chaos Orb?" Me: "Yes, but I thought it would be better to use a Proxy." Him: "No way. If you're going to put a Chaos Orb in your deck you have to use your actual Chaos Orb." Me: "*Sigh*. Okay."
I pulled out this huge Chaos Orb and placed it on the table. He tried to cry foul again but everyone else said he insisted I use my actual Chaos Orb and that was my actual Chaos Orb. I used it, flipped it and wiped most of his board.
Unsurprisingly, that only worked once and only because everyone present thought it was hilarious. 
My DM on Battleminds:
no, see i can kill defenders, but 8 consecutive crits on a battlemind, eh walk it off.
Hi guys! So, I'm a sort of returning player to Magic. I say sort of because as a child I had two main TCG's I liked. Yu-Gi-Oh, and Pokemon. Some of my friends branched off in to Magic, and I bought two pre-made decks just to kind of fit in. Like I said, Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokemon were what I really knew how to play. I have a extensive knowledge of deck building in those two TCG's. However, as far as Magic is concerned, I only ever used those two pre made decks. I know how the game is played, and I know general things, but now I want to get in the game for real. I want to begin playing it as a regular. My question is, are all cards ever released from the time of the inception of this game until present day fair game in a deck? Or are there special rules? Are some cards forbidden or restricted? Thanks guys, and I will gladly accept ANY help lol. 
I have the same problem with women.
Is this my new ego sig? Yes it is, other Barry

And that's why you should never, ever call RP Jesus on being a troll, because then everyone else playing along gets outed, too, and the thread goes back to being boring.
See, this is why RPJesus should be in charge of the storyline. The novel line would never have been cancelled if he had been running the show. Specifically the Slobad and Geth's Head talkshow he just described.
Not only was that an obligatory joke, it was an on-topic post that still managed to be off-topic due to thread derailment. RP Jesus does it again folks.
I think I'm gonna' start praying to Jesus... That's right, RPJesus, I'm gonna' be praying to you, right now.
O' Jesus
Please continue to make my time here on the forums fun and cause me to chuckle.
Amen.
It was wonderful. Us Johnnies had a field day. That Timmy with the Grizzly bears would actually have to think about swinging into your Mogg Fanatic , giving you time to set up your silly combo . Nowadays it's all DERPSWING! with thier blue jeans and their MP3 players and their EM EM OH AR PEE JEES and their "Dewmocracy" and their children's card games and their Jersey Shores and their Tattooed Tenaged Vampire Hunters from Beverly Hills 
Seriously, that was amazing. I laughed my *ss off. Made my day, and I just woke up.

Presentations like these makes me giggle.
But if these leads are to be followed literally.... post RTR - Ravnica will be devoid of guilds? Or will they just be totally wrecked, what do you guys think? I wonder how that will settle to those that liked them and stuff.
Hmm.. hard to say. The guilds are very popular and very marketable, but maybe WOTC's decided that they don't ever want to return to a setting a third time or that having a third block based on the same ten 2 color pairs would be pushing it. The last one makes the most sense to me. It would still leave open the possibility of a third trip to Ravnica jsut with the guilds pushed out of center frame. While the guilds couldn't be as big of a focus anymore there would still be plenty of possibility to play up the guild nostalgia. I'm guessing that the guilds will still exist in some faction but no longer control Ravnica.

It always tickled me that Wizarda maintained the status quo by bringing the guilds back. It felt sort of meta because the Guilds do EVERYTHING in their power to maintaing their status quo :P
Where could a theoretical Ravnica III: The Last Crusade go without the guilds? Hell if I know.
The Nephilim come back? Gideon organizes his planeswalker army to fight of the Eldrazi? Rakdos finally discovers that the only thing he ever really wanted was a friend? *audience goes 'awwwww'*
I hesitate to spend time to trying to guess where the story could go without seeing what Dragon's Maze is ll about.

I seem to remember this popping up during Return to Ravnica too.
I can't understand how people run over these things.

I now have this image of Kos killing Szadek with the caption "i did it for the lulz".
Clever deduction Watson! Maybe you can explain why Supergirl is trying to kill me.

There's also this gem FSS found: twitter.com/NewPhyrexiaPR
"In any language, the fate of the city-plane Ravnica has already been foretold. Doom is at their gates. "
This is pretty much just confirmation to the secret message in the Guildgate. But do you think Phyrexia is somehow involved?

Do we have any way of knowing if that's a fan account or not?
