There is no two ways around it. This weekend, January 13-14 2024 saw quite a unique event in Danish history. It was something that had never before happened. It was a moving couple of hours with a lot of feelings, and it seems like the world – or at least Denmark – has changed in […]
See? I told you the post yesterday was not the traditional end-of-the-year greeting. Nope. But this certainly is. Yet another circumvention of the Sun. Quite a feat. 2023 has not been bad around these parts – at least not Magic-wise. It has also been a year that I have actually noticed! Both 2021 and 2022 […]
Nope, this is not the end-of-the-year post, that is the Happy New Year post that will arrive tomorrow or some day after that. No, today is a merry Christmas post. Or happy holidays or whatever it is called these days. Two weeks ago one of my colleagues mentioned in an almost whispering tone, that I […]
Just one more mailday post of 2023. The last couple of years I have had a plan for what to buy. This year I only needed one card to check the whole list. A single Mirror Universe. And it hit my door just a couple of days ago… That was great! Then I was able […]
Back at the end of 2022, I declared 2023 Year of the Lich here at the spectacle. I may not exactly have lived up to the inherent promise of such a bold declaration. I have only presented you with two Lich decks: The Mighty Kobold Lich and the beautifully stupid – as well as stupidly […]
Around a month ago a potentially very dividing discussion shortly flared up in the Danish Old School community. The discussion was about the very sensitive topic of how we feel the access to tournaments should be: always open or sometimes invite only? The backdrop for the discussion was the fact that one of the bigger […]
Today I have a day off from work. It was needed. Not only has work been a little crazy the last couple of weeks, I have also been a little off my game and have been coughing like I was paid to do it. Oh, right, I also went on a crazy weekend to the […]
You know how sometimes it is refreshing to get out of your comfort zone? How it is sometimes even life-altering or at least horizon-expanding? I must have heard someone utter something along those lines a couple of months back, when I once again decided to join a team Canadian Highlander tournament with my fellow Canlander […]
Apparently it is getting harder to come up with adequate, reasonably meaningful titles to these posts. Anyway. We are here for a Mailday post. The first one since May, even. It is not because I haven’t bought any cards since then. Actually I have bought quite some. But mailday posts are mostly for my own […]
After some long days at work, I want to write just a few short words on a project I am working on. And luckily, I have the perfect one in the furnaces: for the last couple of months I have been contemplating on, theorizing, designing and finally started building a 450-card Premodern draft cube! That […]
