    You forgot the Magic: The Gathering card "Carnival of Souls", which was printed and released in 1999.

  2. Russian Reversal (with Magic card) by KingAlanI · · Score: 1 · on Small Asteroid To Pass Close To Earth Tomorrow

    Good use of the Russian Reversal there I'll admit, but I was talking about Peter Stormare's Lev Andropov character in the 1998 film, in case y'all didn't pick up on that.

    My previously-designed Magic card for Yakov:

    Name: Yakov Smirnoff
    Mana Cost: 1 Blue, 1 Colorless
    Legendary Creature - Human
    Rules Text: Untap Yakov, pay 1, say something that refers to a Slashdot meme: Switch target creature’s power and toughness until end of turn.
    Flavor Text: In Soviet Cartamundi plant, cardboard prints YOU!
    Power/Toughness: 2/1

    (This is a joke card, but there is an actual ability now [premiered in 2008's _Shadowmoor_] that has you untap a creature to use an ability, instead of tapping like, say, Prodigal Sorcerer.

    "Lord, give me the chance to prove that winning the lottery won't spoil me."

    Anyway, in all seriousness I bet [pun intended] I would be more controlled, although I would have some fun, likely splurging on some nice jewelry for instance

  11. What the name means by KingAlanI · · Score: 1 · on Wizards of the Coast Declares Gleemax Site a Critical Failure

    "Gleemax": an in-joke about an alien-brain-in-a-jar that supposedly runs the Magic the Gathering R&D department 2004's "Unhinged" card set (a self-parody released by WotC) contained this, a card representing the Gleemax character: http://magiccards.info/uh/en/121.html A MTG reference, and an in-joke at that, was definitely a bad choice for the name.
