Hadn't been able to work on this again until today. After driving to the hospital, then to my PCP, then back to the hospital and making a few calls I finally got the test I needed done and know what's wrong with me. Fortunately a simple fix.

I've been dealing with a minor injury for a few weeks. And I've just been getting bounced back and forth between different doctors offices and insurance with everyone giving me different side quests to do before anyone will actually help me. Why is healthcare like this. What if this was serious?!

Went 5-2 @bcdlegacy.bsky.social yesterday. Punted round 2 so hard. Had a great time as always though hoping to do slightly better today. Played stock U Tron. Deck felt good. Giants boulder is impressive. UB tempo WLW Doomsday LWL UB tempo WLL Beans LWW Painter WW Alurentell WW Energy WLW

Got halfway through building a gazebo, climbed some rocks, and got second at a local legacy tournament with my take on the sewer cam combo that I'm to lazy to share. Good and very full day

Yup. Confirmed it was good. Waking up tomorrow is going to suck though

Was looking at seats for a cover and Ticketmaster was charging more for similar quality seats if I was looking at one ticket vs two?! Damn, sorry I don't have friends.

Michael Mapson @expeditionmap.bsky.social · 20/07/2026

If mtgo has taught me anything it's that people love to waste their time. If there are 10+ minutes left on my clock, and I'm already up a game, why would you have us both sit here when I presenting infinite mana + draw?

Judged a 5 round rcq today. 4.5 hours start to finish. Has to be the most efficient event I've ever done.

Michael Mapson @expeditionmap.bsky.social · 18/07/2026

Judging an rcq. Watching a player with grove of the burnwillows and just thinking back to the Carmen/jadine stream where their Tron opponent tapped grove to kill their deaths shadow, untapped it bringing their deaths shadow back into play and then repeated over and over. . Peak mtg stream imo

Earlier this year I committed to trying to be healthier after being the heaviest I've been and feeling it. I was doing pretty well, consistently hitting the gym 5x a week. I lost 10lbs but then I missed a day, then a few days, then over a month. Today we start again.

There's so many big magic events going on this weekend including one in driving distance and I won't be at any of them. Therefore, I plan to live vicariously through you all. GL gamers, I want to see those top 8s.

Not my personal cup of tea but my wife's most listened to artist of last year (Alex Warren) is in town so I had to get us tickets. I will say even though his music isn't for me, id love to see this dude in a musical. I think he'd be fantastic

Had a pretty bad run in the legacy showcase with ub tempo car today. Think I was overall happy with both the play and list but needed to play slightly tighter or get a touch luckier in a few spots. I'm also incredibly bad at drawing the car which is sort of a problem.

Michael Mapson @expeditionmap.bsky.social · 28/06/2026

Quick 0-2 drop at a modern rcq. Played amulet. Mulled to 4 two different games trying to find a green green source. The other games weren't much better. Very pleased with how easily I was able to just laugh it off and move on

Second post msh league was a disappointing 2-3 with phoenix/fantasticar hybrid. The deck oscillated between wildly broken and unplayable. I was very unsure on how aggressive to mulligan because you want the broken hands but you need the cards. Excited to try more stuff this weekend

Michael Mapson @expeditionmap.bsky.social · 25/06/2026

First post msh league was a fun one with the less broken Fantastic Four card: council of reeds. Didn't get to live the double emry dream, but the card was a pretty cool and quick clock. Bread and butter 3-2 but sharing because I think it was cool and improvable. list in alt

Let my hubris get the better of me at prepare and kept a 6 card hand with 5 lands. Drew 6 more in a row. Whoops. So unlucky. Nothing I could have possibly done different. Dropping. Getting food. And trying again in an hour

Sometimes in magic we lose, and that's ok. It's important to be able to find the joy in the game in those moments. We talked about it on the podcast this week (not that we would ever lose). Every like/comment/subscribe will also help find joy youtu.be/CCb0k2zG2p8 open.spotify.com/episode/2hT2...

With MSH coming out very soon, Dan and I decided to do something fun and play a game to see if I could guess the characters based off their cards. Very different than our usual fare but would love it if people checked it out. (I apologize about my mic quality) www.youtube.com/watch?v=sgmk...

Wanted to have a date day with the wife. She told me to surprise her with the plans. As I was driving, the car displayed a Google calendar reminder that ruined the surprise. Whoops. We had a good laugh though and having an even better time. At Cirque du Soleil and getting dinner.

Went 0-2 in the limited event today and then went to the art museum and got lunch with an old friend who also went 0-2. It was a terrible event for me results wise but I think I learned a lot reflecting on this event.i also just had a good time hanging out. So calling this a success

Michael Mapson @expeditionmap.bsky.social · 30/05/2026

Dead in the RC. I usually beat myself up after these but I recognized in advance my pro was bad and overall I was happy with my play. Things didn't quite work out in a few spots though. Oddly at peace
