Why Do You Play? [Discussion Thread][GMA]

[hallis]

A friend got me thinking about why I play Magic..

I play because I want to see how creative I can make a deck...see how fast,big, or even crazy I can make it.

Why do you play?  

[DA-FDNT]

I play, to play. ~
I enjoy building decks & watching the concepts come to life. Hence my play type, Johnny Combo Player.



Great Thread btw 3nodding

nothing wrong wih that xp when I first started playing it was to see how many people I could beat without losing a single game...but its always more fun to beat that one certain person xp

The reason I play is to have fun and to hang out with friends.... died down a lot since high school ended though....

I play because Im a fantsy freak and I enjoy the competition between me and my friends

it used to be for the money, but there was a recent incident at a gp where one of the judges had to tackle a kid that was trying to run off with the prize money (( it was actually a group of kids/guys ... over the course of a few months ))


now , its for the thrill of the competition , and the thrill of dropping that bomb on my opponent

no worries Kaiser, i'm the same exact way...well, aside from my job...i have to roleplay the friendly cashier for my job when i actually don't like talking to people at all...i wanted to be on the receiving crew to unload the trucks and stuff so i didn't have to deal with customers x.X

I understand that perfectly Kaiser...I was a WoW hermit for awhile...that addiction still haunts me some days and its been over a year since I quit.

I used to work at a grocery store...never again. I'm now a techy....bye bye people hello equipment.

In order:

It's Fun
It's a nifty social-thingy
I love practicing strategy
I'm good at Math and love Art (I'm a painter)
The Theme/Storyline has my attention
Easy to teach, at least for me

Which that last one goes full circle back to the top.

Well, I got into it cuz of my Fiance... but I stay in it cuz it's one of those games that always keeps you thinking and you always learn from it. It's so cool to come up with a combo after playing for a few years and have a rulemod of 10+ years think it's cool (i was so happy my face hurt from smiling xD) And it's social! As I'm usually a homebody...that's good for me. Plus it helps me develop a bit of a strategical mind, which I don't normally have ( I SUCK at chess lol)
