Is this real or a joke? Is Ikegami actually the same person as Feigel?
It certainly is possible: Feigel was quite arrogant and possibly had had his account cancelled by the Forum mediators...

Sounds familiar?

I apologize for not 'wording' things properly for some. Being new to the game makes it difficult to be 'pomagically' correct.  Didn't mean to start a discussion on terms. I do however want to thank all the responses, we had a fun time last night playing and learning. Being able to ask a couple questions on rules here and getting such fast feedback is enourmously helpfull. Thanks!

Magicese is a precise language, there is a difference between "blocked" and "blocked by a creature" for example
but ikegami takes it way too serious, so ignore him when he goes on about semantics, we all try to

You can certainly play a creature card. For examples, see Scout's Warning  and Ward of Bones  . You can even play creatures: Check the oracle text on Uphill Battle  . But those three were the only exceptions that I could find. ikegami is right to say that the preferred term is "cast."

As long as it's random, I really can't see where's the problem. Anyway, there's already a few standard ways for doing this. We listed them in this thread. If someone does the bogey-bogey, eats the cards, waits until they come out, look out the approximate order, place replacements in the same order, calls the president to ask him to give him a string of numbers, puts the card in the given order, then pick the cards in the order given by taking the date of birth of his opponent, reversed, and taking only every other number, then a judge can clearly declare that he's random enough.
The beauty of sarcasm is that when the person using it is totally incorrect, you can just remove the sarcasm and end up with a post that is actually correct.

Uphill Battle states that creatures played by your opponents enter the battlefield tapped. While that specific wording does include Dryad Arbor  , it also implies that "play a creature" is a perfectly acceptable way to describe what happens when your opponent casts a "normal" creature spell.
