Nabs play: Magic the Gathering

Have you ever played MtG before?
If the answer is "Yes", then go away.

This is only for people who have never played it. And only between us complete newbs, this weekend we are playing against each other some games of Magic. If you want to play with us, you have until then to learn how to play the game, just like we all do.

If you want to participate, just get here on the weekend and respond to the call to play along, assuming you have never played the game before. Lie about it and people will socially exclude you for being a spoilsport, so be honest, because peer pressure, sorta.

Damn. I can't participate.

Why not. Can you post a wikia link or some other place?

what the hell is this and where and how do i play

Because he has played MtG before. I can't post a wikia link or anything because I know of nothing, I'm a newb too.

Google, best wikia ever. The prefered system will be announced later today, but it is irrelevant, there is no point in training with the system, the time before the event is better spent on learning how to play the game itself. And learn it well, like metagaming well, as will I do.

So be it. I will study well. Brace yourselves, embarrassing times are neigh.

well i already said i'm in...

Ill join.

Silly geese. No nab can outnab me.

I already played before so I can't play with yu scrubs ;P

We don't have electricity in the dorms since last afternoon (following warm water, heating and technical support; simply luxury, personally I'm feeling spoiled) and it will probably be so until late monday, so I can't help with this.

I've only checked OCTGN up to now, but you may need to check up on it, so first person to get that one down, post some help here for the rest. If any of you find something easier, post that up again. If a staff member or anyone else can take over and put together some 4 person, or more if available, live-ish tournaments throughout the weekend, that's great. Otherwise, challenge time is on since today, so post up challenges on chat or get together with other people who you know are playing as well to get some games in. Whoever plays, it would help if you would write either a small report on your experience or simply a duel description, and you could pm it to me to use afterwards.

Sorry I couldn't help more with this, I hope power will come back up today so I can, my dorms suck,
