Who's summoning who?
« on: December 09, 2015, 09:28:42 pm »

I showed my wife my Summons, I got a pack of them to hand out at my next tournament and she said she thought the butterfly was pretty (fun fact: she actually doesn't like butterflies IRL, they're too similar to moths and moths have no concept of personal space, so they're dad to her). So I was like "yeah you like the picture of the lady summoning the butterfly? OR WAIT, MAYBE THE BUTTERFLY IS SUMMONING THE LADY!!!!!1111"

This story was amazing. 10/10 I would read it again. I laughed, I cried, it was an emotional roller coaster the whole way through.

Did it hurt? When you fell out of your Victorian era steampunk time machine? And now that you know about the Nazis, will you be killing Hitler or what? Man what happens then? Will they be called grammar Jews?

Killing Hitler is a horrible idea.

WWII was bad, but it would have been worse if it got started by an atomic bomb instead of ended by one.

Eight posts. It took eight posts to get from a Dominion Card that could or could not show a butterfly summoning a woman and/or could or could not show a woman summoning a butterfly to how time-travel with the goal of killing Hitler is a horrible idea. They say 'it's funny how the human brain works'. I like how multiple human brains work together way better ;D.

Is it still Godwin's law if none of the users are actually compared to Hitler/nazis?

Well, you know what they say, a butterfly flaps its wings...

The best reason to lynch Haddock is the meltdown we get to witness on the wagon runup. I mean, we should totally wagon him every day just for the lulz.

I don't know, but these guys are Summoning and they're pretty good.

It's silly though. Why is WW2 required to get all those technological advances? Something like electronics would have happened anyway, even if later.

As the author points out, of course it's silly; it's not a story about time travel, it's a story about Internet forum posters.

She should summon a sleeve... too much arm-ankle showing.

All of my cards are sleeved, including my Summon. Or are you saying I should sleeve all of the Summons that I will be handing out? Most of the people that I know will be in attendance use different sleeves than I do, or no sleeves at all.
