Mtg draft problems
Try recruiting through forums, Roll20 surprisingly has a pretty decent selection. A number of sessions there are held on skype so your mmv.

Seriously, why do so many cards get thrown out? You'd think at least one person would say "hey wait no, let me have those just in case"
>That guy that draws extra cards when his opponent isn't looking
>That guy that tips his spin down die over giving him more life when his opponent isn't keeping track themselves
>That guy that strategically places piles of cards in front of him so he can set down the draft pool and swap in and out useless cards when he opens two mythics or a pack with multiple cards for his deck
>That guy that constantly vets the other players asking "innocent" questions to get an uper hand while dodging the questions if they are thrown back at him
>That guy that rebuilds others decks for them after he beats them to make them play better in the hope they win to increases his final placement
>That guy that constantly watches everything and steal cards at every opportunity netting him cards like mana crypt when their owners look away for just a second
I am all of these things. People just think I'm a good player with a lot of luck when I always come in first and walking away with the best cards.
>I am all of these things
No, you're not. You just want attention.
Which you got, but hopefully this will be your only response, troll.
>I pulled a $50 card in my pack, I'll drop
>Wow what an asshole for not giving away his $50 card to the luckiest drafter. Let's shun him!
>It just avoids accidental awkwardness where someone gets passed a mythic that is now damaged.
Is the card less effective if it isn't in mint condition
I have no idea how any of this Magic stuff works
>go sit down
>after a couple minutes someone tells me I'm in the wrong spot
>apparently there's assigned seating for the draft
>wat
What is odd about that? If you could sit anywhere you risk people just grouping up and passing on stuff to each other.
Assigned seating is for elementary school, not drafting.
Why do you say that user? Its surprisingly easy to cheat if you put your mind to it and are observant.
