Correcting “Two Headed Wizards”
Kelly Diggeses’ses latest article for MagicTheGathering.com was entitled “Two Headed Wizards.” It was a report on Developer 2HG, an event at GP Seattle/Tacoma wherein WOTC developers teamed up with random duders.
Unfortunately, Kelly made a glaring omission: he failed to namedrop Good Gamery regular Brian Cohn.
The offending paragraph:
“His partner?” Who’s that? This mystery would have been left buried for all time, robbing humanity of knowledge essential to maximal social utility. But that’s why God created Good Gamery.
We took the liberty — nay, the obligation — of rewriting the paragraph to include the omitted information.
and skilled, up-and-coming Magic player Brian Cohn (or “ewie” on Good Gamery).
Right from the beginning, Tom and Brian shared a special connection because both have ties to the MiseTings and Good Gamery communities. The partner assignments were supposedly random, of course, but as soon as they were paired up we knew that Tom had pulled a few strings to make it happen.
Things were a little bit awkward at first. Brian was a bit starstruck because Tom is a hot-shot rockstar at Wizards. Tom was a bit starstruck because Brian has masterpiece Good Gamery threads under his belt.
But all of that disappeared when they cracked open their pool. Suddenly restraint melted away, and the two embraced with tears in their eyes as they opened
Mycoloth and Obelisk of Alara, as well as Lord of Extinction, foil Dauntless Escort, and foil Rafiq of the Many, with Mosstodon to help Lord of Extinction punch through. Nice pool, guys!
