Ghost Host

The seldom heard third host of MtACast! Also, ghost.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

Took them 172 episodes, but @MtACast finally acknowledged that I've been here the whole time. Don't call it a comeback, I guess.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@nostrangenames I think I’m going to take a break from twitter for a while. Until people learn to think about things critically and in detail, I’m just going to get frustrated at how people don’t look past their own noses at /anything./

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@nostrangenames They are things meant to stimulate thought, not be the end all be all. The imagined tone people prescribe to him is not at all the attitude he presents them with.

It is so exhausting to see people not thinking and just attacking. Not just at him, but in general.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@nostrangenames He is not sneering at anything, he is just failing at sounding profound.

I do not understand people ‘s fascination with shitting on NDG. If you’ve ever watched his shows, you would know that his Twitter is essentially shower thoughts, and he says as much. :\

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@nostrangenames How well does Into the Breach stack up compared to it, in your opinion? I have been on the fence about getting it, but I did really like FTL.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@nostrangenames Did you ever play FTL?

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@Casual_Crusader @CubeApril But there is also an old mtg commercial where a person named “Bob from Accounting” is portrayed. Frequently Dark confidant had the “from Accounting “ added on, when people knew what it was referencing.

Maro talked about it on “Drive to Work” once, which is where I learned that.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@CubeApril Going back a ways: Bob from Accounting (AKA why Dark Confidant is nicknamed “Bob.”)

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@nicknprince @MegTheWolff Absolutely!

Though the one with eyes on the box really does creep me out a bit.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@MegTheWolff @nicknprince Once, both Meghan and Maria simultaneously answered “Cinnamon Toast Crunch” to the question “What is the best Cereal?”

We are all on the same page here.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@DLittlestCretin @MtACast @TheManaSource Oh, wait until you hear about the legend rule! Or the mulligan rule. Or damage no longer being on the stack. Or literally any of the 6th ed rules changes!

Yeah, this series is going to be real good for people returning after a long time too.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@ninox_morpork I’m so glad everything worked out! Having worked at an animal hospital for several years, I can say that it is rare that people do the right thing. Thank you!

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@q8fasol @LHissrich @ZoltanRises Most of this stuff is covered in just the short story books. There is so much more to the Witcher series, and so many places she could take it!

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@Whorrorer @nostrangenames And if it were just one, I’d probably be more willing, but after about three you can understand my hesitation.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@Whorrorer @nostrangenames You also have to understand that I do not make a lot of money either. I might chip in a few dollars to a paypal for crowdfunding, sure, but I am much more able to help in other ways. Helping a person find a plan of action is usually more helpful than my $10.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@Whorrorer @nostrangenames (And by “money” I am talking about amounts more than about $100 total)

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@Whorrorer @nostrangenames Let me put it this way; I am a Librarian (when I am not haunting the MtA podcast), I help people find jobs and facilitate them finding resources to help them get back on track. I would much sooner help a person this way instead of giving money.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@Whorrorer @nostrangenames I don’t doubt that the people who asked my friends to give them money needed it, they just didn’t ever have a plan for how to use it, and constantly needed more to cover their inadequacy.

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@Jamie7Keller Would you say the room is a shithole?

[Ghost Host @mtaghost]

@nostrangenames I only give money to content creators as a rule. I’ve seen several of my friends essentially get milked for cash by people who give them a sad story and then claim that the problem never goes away. :\
