My funny picture

But if you're possessed, you don't gain anything.

I play Possession.
I control your deck, tell you to gain a Lost City.
I gain the Lost City instead.
You draw a card.
But I'm Possessing you.
;D

Wording implies it's your own turn, IMO.  But OK.

The wording could also be an imperative.  "Gain that Lost City, puppet!"

(quoting images = evil !)
I was wrong with my Monument meme : Abandoned mine fits too (+ vanilla victories and treasures...) . Well, assume I meant Kingdom cards.

EDIT : AJD's story was interesting enough despite its illustration was kind of "déjà vu".

Chocolate is like victory points in Dominion. Both taste good but they'll hurt you if you eat too much of it instead of something else in your early days.

Oooo cool, the Random Stuff thread won't be alone any longer!

This is also known as the thread where it is really easy to get respect because everyone reads it, so I'm going to be posting more than normal for the next 39 posts... :)

Yes, from the start of Random Stuff Part II (which is actually only 500 posts away...)

I'm equally confused by what's going on over there.  It seems to oscillate between 4999, 5000, and 5001.  To avoid further quantum effects I'm going to split this into a new topic.

Is this a character's name?  If so, from what?  I have a friend that has this name embedded in a longer email address, and I've never asked him about it.

My funny picture

I play Possession.
I control your deck, tell you to gain a Lost City.
I gain the Lost City instead.
You draw a card.
But I'm Possessing you.
;D

Wording implies it's your own turn, IMO.  But OK.

I disagree. It just says "a possession turn", which to me makes no implication whether it is your turn or your opponent's turn. And from the context of you gaining a card, we can infer that it is your opponent's turn.

It doesn't say it's your opponent's turn.  In the lack of an indicator, my natural assumption is that it's your turn.  If you say that you do something on a turn, it is implied that it is your turn.

There has to be a way to easily fish through this thread and only show/link the posts with at least X upvotes, right? "Best of" the memes thread?

If there was, the high votes would get higher and the low votes would get lower.
