We enjoyed it enough to buy a bunch of used cards online. We paid very little, and still had all the enjoyment of playing.<br /><br />We enjoyed that enough to remember how much we used to like the Vs CCG, and so we did the same thing. We bought used cards online and got hours of gametime for a small amount of cash.Jeff Myershttp://www.play2relax.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9319479.post-83608638177403552002010-01-27T18:45:39.217+02:002010-01-27T18:45:39.217+02:00Then there are those lunatics like me who try and ...Then there are those lunatics like me who try and do both. I take a break from MTG every now and then, but always come back to it and I'm always buying boardgames too. Currently I'm on break from MTG and yet I've been spending more and more time on boardgames.<br /><br />It is at the point where I've been wondering lately if I am addicted to boardgames. My wife laughed and asked if I thought I would get fired any time soon because of my addiction. I'm still not sure I agree with that. All I can say in defense is that my addictions are less dangerous and costly than narcotics (I think, I don't really know what the going rate on narcotics is I might be wrong) and they have yet to have any major negative impacts on my life.Dragonbear82https://www.blogger.com/profile/16272409817246137005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9319479.post-68285903343196670912010-01-27T00:00:16.449+02:002010-01-27T00:00:16.449+02:00I stopped playing MTG after a long 7 years.

The difference is, depending on company, that your stuff doesn't become obsolete within' a year.<br /><br />I keep buying new stuff, and there is always new stuff to buy, but I keep using my old stuff just as often.<br /><br />And I have about 6 board games, but I concede the only reason I don't have double that amount by now, is I spend it all on miniatures :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03538050083378769156noreply@blogger.com
