You could make a playmat for the organizationally challenged, complete with a red zone and a deck and graveyard space on either side depending on if a person draws from their left or right.

I have come across something that maybe of interest. I am going to make a prototype and see how it comes out before I get into details.

I despise playmats because no matter what anyone ever tells me, they simply seem to be the most pointless things ever. Is a clean table that difficult to come across? haha.

Anyway, I have considered buying a bag for my decks, but always decide not to because I like to bring a trade binder or two along with me and the decision is always: random bookbag > deck bag every single time.

If the bag could hold decks secure, but also have more space then I would definitely think about getting one.

As for bobbleheads, I don't think enough would sell haha. Spin down dice are always awesome to have though.

Not sure how long you been playing magic, but I been playing since before playmats and sleeves. Playmats came out before sleeves as a way to protect the cards from wear by tapping them, then sleeves were introduced shortly after that. At first playmats had a real reason to be used, but nowadays, its just an expression of your personality. I think they are good to use during a prerelease event. I am a little slow when it comes to deck building, and then to have to sleeve my cards on top of that, I would rather just use a play mat. I still have the first official playmat wizrds made for areana games.

To answer your question about the clean table, yea, sometimes it is hard to come by a clean table. All those Big gulp mountain dew drinking kids in the card shops and the tournaments has me fearful for my cards. I try to make it a point to make sure my play area wiped down, but sometimes it slips me up.

[BassmanARW]

Well obviously without card sleeves a playmat would hold more of a significance; however, that is not the case today when card sleeves are so common and playmats are viewed as something nice, but unnecessary.

As for the clean tables, I have never played at an FNM, tournament or even a friend's house where we could not find a clean table or place to play. My sleeves are in pretty good condition and if anything their main damage has always been from shuffleing.

May be a "bad" idea however playing alot of cardgames with alot of different tokens and alot of different color symboles and such why not make glasscounters with inprints?

Since every single counter is flat on one side and sphereish (sp dont even know if its the right word (or even a word) for it (english as 2nd language ftw) on the other side it shouldnt be so hard to "burn" in some symboles at the flat side.

Examples could be
Red glass counters with inprinted -1 / -1
Blue glass counter with inprinted +1 / +1
Counters with + {loyalty symbol}
Counters with - {loyalty symbol}
and such

I know that ordenary counters does the trick, but with these counters you are sure to any given time, even if you are forced away from the game (however though, as mentioned: ordernary counters will do the trick for most players:P)

Just an Idea

There are no - loyalty counters only the removal of loyalty counters.  However,you could include some charge counters since they seem to be an evergreen counter now.

[BassmanARW]

Well the thing that I generally feel a need for the most right now are -1-1 counters. I put a counter on my cards upside down, but then people question it and I die a little inside everytime I put a "-1-1" on something and they question it.

So please make something for -1-1 counters before someone else does haha.

[gleemax]

I made some cool paper one's that I'm using.  One side has a cropped pic from Incremental Growth and "+1/+1" and the flip side has a cropped pic from Incremental blight and "-1/-1".  Obviously since I "borrowed" the art I can't sell these, but the design could be worked into a marketable item just by using a diffrent picture.

Here since I can't attach a file here (that I know of) I went ahead and uploaded the ppt file to http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ST4SCL3V.

Simply download the file, print out the tokens (print double sided to get the full effect), cut them out, and watch as your opponents marvel at your coolness (make sure to plug mananation when they ask where you got them from).

[Nikerym]

Well I know this have been mentioned before, and it has been made by some other sites, however this is abit different though.



this the chest of a T-shirt design sketch - its all vectorized and ready for use, if anyone wants it.

for mananations part you could set your logo on the backside, up at the neck or at the sleeves.
