CardShark

WE MADE IT! Thanks to everyone who has listened, commented, criticized, and offered feedback, advice, help, and ideas for these hundred episodes. We really appreciate all of you who have stuck with us all this time, all of you who have stuck with us since we joined the MTGCast, and all of you who have just discovered us.

And a special thanks goes out to Eric from St. Louis who is Mr. Suitcase who is thewachman who is one of the hosts of Monday Night Magic. Not only did he send us a congratulatory audio file to put in this episode, he also convinced others to do so too. Thanks to Trevor, Tom, and Kevin from MTGRadio for their support. Thanks to Christian, Bryan, Aaron, Jeff, and Claire over at the Avant-Card Show for being complete ripoffs of us but having a girl so it's okay...I mean for all the ribbing and poking and insulting and general fun we've had since you guys got started. Really, we love you guys. Thanks to the Road Warrior Chris Otwell, not only for the audio file, but for all the work he does behind the scenes each week to keep the MTGCast network running smoothly. And finally, thanks to Noah Whinston, formerly of the Sunday Super Show, for sticking with us since episode 10 (a Morningtide preview episode), even though we're not technically his cup of competitive-style-Magic tea.

What, you want to know what's actually in this episode too? Geez you people are picky! Due to real life getting in everyone's way, our 100th episode extravaganza sort of got scaled back a bit. Then, due to technical difficulties, our first idea kind of got shot down. Brian had the brilliant idea to run through 100 cards that mean something to us for our 100th episode. That's 25 apiece! So we made our lists and went for it. So this episode didn't end up being 100 hours long, we decided to stick with a 30 second time limit for each card, complete with a buzzer of some sort so we'd know when to stop.

Of course, the end of the show sort of disintegrates into a lot of random nonsense involving the questionable music collection of the lead dork. We would like to stress that all of this music is used without permission and is owned by the respective copyright holders or rights owners or whatever. But it's just us being silly, which apparently you listeners enjoy. So I hope you enjoy, and thanks again for everything. We couldn't do this without you guys, so hopefully you'll push us to do another hundred shows!

CONGRATULATIONS! I can't believe that it's been this long, but here we are.

And I have every intention of hanging onto your podcast and hopefully sneak into a few more episodes and get mentioned in 98 out of the next 100 episodes. It probably won't happen, but we all can dream.

I would've made a congratulatory audio file, but I'm being crushed by HW and I can't edit audio anyway.

As always....VOTE BEN FOR FINAL BOSS! AND MANA POOL FOR MAGIC PODCAST OF THE YEAR!

-I appreciate the lack of mindbreaking and batches and series.
-Hah, I am disappointed at the lack of 5 hour episode involving me.

-That suspend analogy was good, Chewie.
-Visit the forums and meet me, Ben!
-Cards are nice.
-Woo free cards!
-I'm impressed that you actually managed to cover 100 cards in under 2 hrs.
-Hey, you guys would've only been talking for 2.5 of it. The other 2.5 would've been listeners!
-Thank you for mentioning me in episode 100. It makes me feel very important.
-This episode was like a lavaball. But it wasn't a trap.
-I liked the "Shut up" noise.
-Except lands, Dirk.
-Kiki-Jiki has a great name.
-Man, so glad I had gatherer open for this episode. Even my near encyclopedic knowledge failed me a couple of times during this episode.
-Possessed portal is terrible.
-Is it just my weird time sense, or did the time variate some what? And I didn't realize how long 30 seconds was.
-Card draw in white? Awesome.
-I can see how that'd be Johnny tastic.
-That was recorded in the car...
-You changed up the sound...I liked "whack it"...
-"It can be PEANUT BUTTER JELLY TIME" Best quote ever...
-Brian can't pronounce Marikay Ray Barret.
-Firestorm seems of questionable usefulness.
-Chewie never remembers when it's his turn.
-Gifts without a plan is hilarious. I did it once and no one attacked me. Awesome.
-Mirror strike is funny.
-Wormfang manta is so weird.
-Mana Pool got a couple of people started it seems.
-MTG Radio is pretty neat.
-Now that stop noise is F-ing amazing.
-And then you killed him with Jinxed Choker. You win.
-That stop noise is the greatest.
-Furnace Dragon seems like it'd be fairly good in darksteel standard.
-I like how Vegeta keep overriding you guys.
-I won their contest. Because I rock. Well, one out of five...but still.
-Hah, you guys should be the Mana Jacuzzi.
-Hah, tangents.
-Goddammit Kanye.
-Hot.
-If Kermit the frog calls you out, you know you F***ed up.
-Nooooo...Bad. No Yugioh.
-Unmake IS awesome.
-And the art is great.
-Hah, didn't you use that to bring "the old school beatdown"? And I hate its art.
-Hah, shared fate. Chewie's least favorite card.
-I liked th Starwars reference.
-And the background cheering.
-Otwell is amazing.

-And new stop noise. Still liked the "OVER 9000!" one.
-DANISH.
-I liked the Danish one better.
-Stop screwing around and giving Chewie beasts.
-That one was too long and dumb.
-Now that one was better. Although it felt weird.
-Ascendant Evincar is awesome.
-Stop changing it!
-Custom audio files are awesome.
-I was honestly expecting an actual buzzer noise.
-Third season, actually.
-I probably have, but I've never actually watched the price is right, so I don't know the music. Sorry guys. I'll go listen to the price is right music, then listen to all the episodes (all 99) and try to find it, then tell you.
-It is.
-Most fruitless search: Search for Tomorrow
-Yeah, episode 100 has to be approved by everyone.
-Epic. Truly. Requiem for a tower? Epic.
-Battle without honor or humanity. I'm recording these to be looked up later.
-Man, I haven't heard the badger song in years.
-Wait, was that the Price is Right music?
-I have recruited Lavos for my schemes.
-NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
-Fury of the storm...
-I actually saw one of Kanye interrupting himself. Here it is: http://fatkidatcamp.com/wp-content/uplo ... imself.jpg
-I miss Squanto.
-....What?
-Great episode. I'm glad I was able to stay on the comp long enough to make a play by play for this episode. I felt it was fitting, however, considering that this is episode 100.

D*&^ it chewie I have "Genie in a Bottle" stuck in my head, can we not make me flash back to my preteen girl years...they were not good times. And i so would have corrected you...but i am a girl so it would have been okay right?

I also Love the card boys, besides Dirk being green who represents which color? I asume each of you have one since there is no red.

Congratulations!! I still enjoy listening to the 2 hour long episodes, so you guys are doing something right
Hopefully you will make another 100 episodes. Just keep having fun and record it for our pleasure

What can I say besides the audio quality on my recording sucked and you guys are Awsome!

I loved the cut in adio files and glad yiou did to. My favorites were Avant Card Show and Ottwell. Those two rocked and I was impressed with the 100 cards. Keep up the good work so says he with many names!

Congrats guys. Good episode, well, at least what I have heard so far, I'm up to the yugioh section. Was listening to it in the car and my daughter kept asking 'why he keep asking what time it is'. And 'i wish he would stop'.

Anyway, entertaining show, great idea, well executed. Even made me laugh at least once, so we know it was funnier than Christian.

Great show guys. Great idea, really didn't think (or maybe I was just hoping) you were gonna make ANY of the card talks actually under 30 secs, and instead of being rushed, it flowed beautifully. I agree with thewachman: Here's hoping you guys do well more than another 100 episodes!

I'm curious as to how much sales on CardShark went up for all the cards you guys went over.


I swear one of these days I'll give you some real feedback.

Justin's the lawyer? so is it Justin's Case?

Great episode! Want to hear more long shows and hear you guys actually play!

Great episode, guys! I was listening to this at work and was unable to keep up any detailed notes, but I loved the discussion of the 100 cards. The audio files from various listeners was really cool, especially the Avant Card Show guys (and gal). A

And you know, looking over the last 5 episodes, you have been slowly lowering the length of the episodes. Subtly training your listeners to be okay with shorter episodes, are you?

Given you made it to 100 episodes, I think it's time for Ben to make a Mana Pool soundboard, as I don't know anyone else with time to dig through 100 episodes.

Hah, I wish. I certainly have the time (weekends) but not the ability. I have no idea how to edit sound. Maybe if I team up with the famous Rob Anderson, we could do it.

I wanted to say congrats guys on 100
