⚠️ Update: it's getting worse
The Standard season started last weekend. For the first time in the province of Quebec, not a single store has scheduled a Standard RCQ, aside from the Regional Championship tournament organizer, Face to Face, on September 20th.
The Standard RCQ location is definitely problematic, but with the poor promos, there’s also very little incentive for stores to run RCQs.
Three years ago, before a season even started, we would already have 20–30 RCQs scheduled. FYI, we even had a season with over 60 RCQs.
I want to play. I just can’t.
The system simply isn’t working right now.
What are you waiting for @PlayMTG?
It was the best ever Tesla event. I am glad that I got to see this online.
I know a friend who was at the site!
Thank you @KahuaInc for the private concert of Darius Tucker. It was a fun night 😁
Celebration party tomorrow at @KahuaInc in Atlanta, but first stop at the best American junk food @ChickfilA 🤤
6-3 after day one. Happy to play tomorrow for day 2.
Highlights of the day:
- In time turn one against Goryo, we are both at 1. I cast Emrakul, he solitude’d. I drew for him a fetch 😆.
- Lost to a Mardu Burn deck (Bad pile imo)
- Lost the mirror twice including last round against @Nowayh_. I mulled to 5 g2 and g3.
I was charmed by @HouseOfManaMTG’s Oblivion Sower tech.
I did 5-1 today. I had a bye and my lost is because I conceded.
Pumped for Saturday ✌️

I secured my invite at the first RCQ Standard at @FaceToFaceGames playing lots of forests and 4 Mossborn main.
R1 UW Control-Flyers 😢🤩😢

Top 4 (we were only 15 players), I lost to perfect cards Izzet Spellementals.
Do I have a friend who can invite me? ☺️
1 billion Muse tokens for you. 1 billion for your friend.
Referrals are now live in Muse! Invite up to 20 friends and you'll each get 1 billion tokens when they onboard and redeem your code. That's up to 20 billion Muse tokens for you. muse.ai/join
I didn't have in my bingo card that Vincent Damphousse would be at my local Pickleball tournament.
Sadly for him, his partner and him lost to us for the Bronze medal (best 2 of 3).
Native app development is trending again 🥳
It’s easier than ever to try @UnoPlatform.
Give it a try 💪
AI demos are the easy part.
If you’ve been around for a while, you know the reality is different: generating code is easy; confidently putting your name on it and shipping it is what counts.
Meet Uno Platform Studio.
What happens after the prompt is what matters most. 👇
A real enterprise .NET application needs cross-platform consistency, design-system awareness, live runtime context, and UI validation across every state.
With Uno Platform Studio, your prompt isn’t the end of the workflow. It’s one possible beginning.
Start with AI in your browser - no installation required. Describe your application, watch it get scaffolded live, and preview it while it’s running.
Then bring the same project into your preferred IDE or CLI and keep building.
Or start with C# and XAML. Edit the running application visually with Hot Design, iterate with Hot Reload across web, desktop, and mobile, and accelerate screen design with ready-made UI blocks.
Move freely between AI, visual tooling, and code. Use AI where it creates leverage and take control wherever you need it.
Two workflows. Same project. Same Uno Platform foundation. One continuous path from idea to production.

I am glad that my last post on Thursday about the RCQ system reopened the discussion. It went viral (over 100K views) and more importantly, many people added their voices.
I hope that @PlayMTG will notice.
At the end of the day, we want the competitive scene to flourish.
Pickleball is my new drug since this summer.
I need this #TeslaFanBoy
Tesla/Selkirk pickleball paddle now comes in a new finish inspired by Cybercab
And there’s a matching t-shirt too

It's rare that I share a private message, but I had a strong feeling 😀
Having @dotMorten on the Win App SDK team is an amazing addition.
Happy for you and congrats !
I'm excited to share that today is my first day at Microsoft, joining the Windows Developer Platform team! I'll be working on the Windows App SDK and working with developer communities to help evolve the platform and make building great apps on and for Windows even better. #winui
My car detected some bad cells. Tesla replaced with a new 🔋.
I am glad that it was under warranty at 162 000 km (8 years or 192k km).
I enjoyed FSD on the loaner for almost 3 weeks. It was amazing.
