LOL I don't know what Cameron was babbling about but he could so make a career out of voiceover work.

I'm so glad you guys have brought up the Heinz issue in such an objective fashion. Yes his mannerisms are annoying but that is totally a by product of his near superhuman enthusiasm for magic. Despite whatever problems he may or may not have, I honestly think he is a credit to the Brisvegas magic scene in terms of colourful behaviour. LEAVE HEINZ ALONE!

haven't listened to the podcast yet, but i think the main issue with heinz is that he requires a great deal of tolerance and patience, which a lot of people aren't prepared to provide at a high-stress magic tournament. honestly, i think there's a good chance he has some form of asd (autistic spectrum disorder) which is a good reason to be more, rather than less tolerant.

Great podcast guys, I agree with everything you said on the heinz issue.

Good job, you didn't tell me what to play at the ptq though

good podcast Levi and Cameron... managed to keep it together for 50 minutes! I particularly enjoyed your memories of specific plays and misplays... well done and thanks

The stories about Heinz are disturbing and made me feel a little ill.
I am newly arrived at FNM, and was struck by some of the ways in which people dealt with one another in what seemed like a maelstrom of talk, gameplay and social dynamics.
Strong leaders are needed to create both social cohesion and a higher level of gameplay, which I believe go hand in hand. And it is very reassuring to hear Levi and Cameron speak loudly and take a good and moral stand about a very crucial aspect of the gaming community.

Great podcast again guys.... even when you guys get completely off track.... Wink

....

Cheers to those who did well at Nats ( or the PTQ the next day ).... and to those who didn't, better luck next year....

PS - Also, thanks for the shout-out ( with the cards ).... it's the least I could do to help the players going ( seeing that wasn't an option for me this year anyway... ). Also, I'd like to add, that a fair percentage of the cards also came from a friend I'm trying to drag into the competitive mill..... so a personal shout-out to Ash Cross who I'll get to join the forums at some stage soon.....

cheers
