Reporting for duty. My main MTG interests are Cube drafting & construction, and Vintage. Can't promise I'll post much - I've been a member of that other site for years and have only a handful of posts to my name - but am nonetheless glad to be a part of this community.

Your avatar is amazing.
Tell us a bit about yourself, vigilante.

Thanks. Whenever I join a new forum I have to decide between using my current avatar and this one:
As for myself - I'm from Australia, which makes me pretty much irrelevant to MTG globally (as if being an exclusive Cube drafter/Vintage player didn't already do that.) I've been playing since Mirage, have dabbled in virtually every format from kitchen-table casual to Standard to EDH to...well, you get the idea. I've also been an admin on the (now-dead) Australian MTG site Good Games Community, where incidentally we adopted an extremely laid-back moderating style.
In real life I'm a health professional (optometrist), first-time dad to a beautiful 6-month old girl,
and play rockabilly slap double bass. Life is pretty busy, but I can still usually find time to squeeze in some Magic here and there.

Thanks Manders. I've never really done the Mafia thing before but I'll drop by and check it out.

Did you work at good games at gencon or in Brisbane? Because if you did or still do I definitely bought about 15 shocklands off you once.

I do not play slap bass myself, no, merely have mad respect for those who do.

Welcome to the club. I usually call it "the shotguns club", but each member is free to get their weapon of choice to scare off those wannabe-boyfriend bums.

Rockabilly? You like Rockabilly?
How did I miss this?!
I LOVE the sound of a well-played banjo. Like angels singing from on high.

No, actually I have no connection with Good Games beyond admin-ing their forum for a couple of years.

Oh, a bit of everything really. Stray Cats. Go Cat Go. The Go Getters. A heap of obscure Australian bands with funny names that nobody's ever heard of (The Creepers, Men Into Space, The Purple Drippers.)
