Interview: Jace Beleren



Jace, the Mind Sculptor

Current Value: $59.99

Today we have rare opportunity of mythic proportions, we are sitting down with Jace Beleren, aka: Jace, the Mind Sculptor. Welcome to the show Mr. Beleren.

Jace: Thank you for having me. Long time fan of the show.

Joe: Well Jace, you called my agent last night concerning and interview this morning and I have to say it was a big shock... you said you had an announcement to make?

Jace: Yes, as of today it brings me a bittersweet sadness to announce that I am going into early retirement.

*shock in the audience, dismay, and disbelief can be heard.*

Joe:What do you mean? This is incredible...

Jace: Yes, I am retiring. I have come to this decision after a long negotiation process with the "powers that be" concerning Lilliana's exclusion from M12. If she has to go, I will go as well...

Joe: Isn't that a bit extreme. You have a steady market, and there is no way but up for you... these last few weeks are going to be your best. Besides, everyone loves you.

Jace: To quote a dear friend of mine "fame, doing it for the fame, 'cause we wanna live the life of the rich and famous" There is no need to do something for the sake of being the best if you get no gratification out of it anymore.

Joe: You are friends with Lady Gaga?

Jace: I think you are missing the point.

Joe: Yeah, How did you meet Lady Gaga?

Jace: Well, I should get going. I want to publicly state that while I know a lot of other cards resented me I had a lot of super friends. I just want to thank you for being there for me.

Joe: That is so amazing... Lady Gaga... wow. Is he is nice in person as he sounds on his cd's?

Jace: Well, I guess I am off... time to bounce.

Joe: Wait! One more question.

Jace: Yeah...

Joe: You totally know I knew you were banned right?

*Jace vanishes*

Joe: dick...

MTGO Disconnected

Don't you hate it when you are playing MTGO and your opponent gets disconected for like 10 minutes? Sometimes I think it is a conscience attempt by my opponent to frazel me, or to simply get me to walk away from my computer myself. It always seems to happen when I am winning, and in a hurry too. I say to myself "I got this" and formulate my game winning plan... Well, turns out I should write this plan down so I dont forget it over my opponents ten minute absences... I will eventually loose those matches out of frustration. Call me a washing machine because I easily get agitated with these "disconectors" and it works out to thier advantage.

Next time I play in a mtgo tournament I am just going to stay focused during my opponents frequent disconects, and write down my plans... just don't write down your plans in chat... that'd be a bad idea.
