Ohhh yes. Particually if you manage to get a Copper Rod, a Tim and a big-bad-i-said-no* as the pick up

I've heard them called Tims before (somewhere around here I have my Tim deck, devoted to Tim and similar cards);

*shudders* one friend of mine put a Bruise deck (black-blue) together once that had 20 blue cards in it. Every one had "Tap:Cause 1 Damage to target creature or Player" on it. As a result everyone used to gang up on him at the start of games.

 but I've never heard lightning
bolt called "Copper Rod".

obvious electricity reference. I don't know who started it, but we had joke references to most of the cards. Terror was always just called "Dark Place", Dragon Whelps were Dragon Bombs, Initiates of the Ebon Hand were retitled Initiatites of the Exploding Head and frequently used for Drain Life.

 We always called it "Bolt". And I thought the
big-bad-NO was Force of Will; Counterspell's more like a supplementary No.


Don't think I ever had a force of will. I had a Force of Nature tho.
