Intro: I'm Cary. I run a Magic story search engine (@mtglore.bsky.social), I'm on The Vorthos Cast, and I wrote a zine about Gatherer comments (mtglore.com/players-just...).
I'm a free agent in it for the love of the game. Simple as that.

I'll give you $20 if you can provide proof of where this map of Aerona was originally published in physical form #Vorthos
Readers, we have a challenge! We want to source this map of Aerona and get a better photo/scan. We know it is
• Different from the 1997 calendar
• Printed 2000 or before
• Maybe from a magazine? Not Duelist; possibly TopDeck 6, 7, 9, or 11
Can you help us track this down?

Kai literally made people eat hats by doing what seemed impossible earning the nickname The German Juggernaut.
He also an utterly lovely person with a great -- albeit acridly dry -- sense of humor.
We lost one of the all time greats.
Fuck cancer.

We are deeply saddened at the news of the passing of Magic legend Kai Budde. His achievements in the game and community go beyond what we could say in one post. Our thoughts go out to Kai's friends and family in this moment.
