#slow play

[magicjudge]

If I were declare an infinite milling loop, with something like the Saheeli modern combo someone posted earlier, and my opponent is running a one-of Emrakul, the Aeons Torn in their main deck, can I declare a shortcut that allows me to mill them until the iteration where Emrakul is the last card in their library, and I keep it there for them to draw?

No, you can’t. You can’t say how many iterations it will take, so you can’t loop it and it’s slow play to attempt to engineer the situation manually.

So, if I use a viscera seer in a combo to sacrifice a creature say... 2000 times to scry, is there a way to basically short cut the process of scrying every single card to the bottom + writing them down and just look at my deck without changing the order, then find where you want to scry to and then cut the cards that would be scryed, in that order, to the bottom of your deck?

If you can do an arbitrarily large amount of Scry 1 like this, you’re allowed to look at your library and then cut it to any specific card in the deck. You’re not allowed to write down the order of cards in your library, though, as that takes too much time and is considered to be Slow Play.

In many cases, the decision to leave is not taken…

In this episode Bryan and Charles talk about one of the more subjective infractions in the IPG; Slow Play. We talk about its definition, it’s subjectivity, why it can’t have an objective definition and how to deal with players that might get upset you give them Slow Play. We even talk about Chess Clocks. No, really. Thats been a suggestion.

And, to play into the theme, this episode gets a Warning for being a day late.

The Tragedy of the Short Hitter

The Tragedy of the Short Hitter Unforeseen consequences of having to hit first on every approach shot.

One of my more interesting failures from my rounds in this weekend’s inaugural Lexington Mid-Am Championship was consistently choosing the wrong side in the epic struggle between an invariable pre-shot routine and my perceived pace of play. Cold, emotionless analysis indicates that I would rather be known as a lesser-skilled or poorer golfer than a better golfer that plays the game at any speed…
