Me & @squee
This is just to let everyone know the actual situation between my brother ( @squee ) and I.
For those disinterested, this is merely some "Off-topic Chat" to put some people at ease, not a contest or anything. However, you can post cards you'd like @squee and I to look at in the comment section below. We'll try and comment on some of them (or all if there aren't many), and we'll fave ones we genuinely like.
As a few of you are aware, I'm 22 and I work 40 hours a week at a Civil Engineering & Land Surveying firm. I'm the eldest of five children and @squee is the fourth child (14 years old). We don't get to spend a ton of time together as a result, but we really enjoy the time we get. One day we intend to design and produce (perhaps Kickstart?) a Card/Board game with some similarities to another game many of us like and a lot of unique elements. Oooh, a mystery!.
One of the ways we spend our free time together is glossing over my cards, whymtgcardsmtih, etc. We've had a lot of good laughs and he is sincere when he says he likes (almost) all of my cards a lot. He gets a little down on himself sometimes and says he can't make cards at all, but he really enjoys going through mine.
In the near future, I'll be helping him create a few cards on his account. I've collected approximately 188 unused art pieces that he'll (hopefully) get some inspiration from and we can work on cards together. We did that for a little while after he made his account, but, lately, his time is absorbed with his new laptop and Star Wars Battlefront
Anyway, this is just to apprise anyone concerned with regard to the situation. We will be curbing the rapidity of @squee's favorite output on my cards, and trying to find other cards for his account to favorite.
Hope this clears things up a bit. Sorry for any disruption/confusion this may have caused. I informed @mtgcardsmith and @Corwinnn almost immediately as @squee's account was created that it might appear like a "favorite-bot" account, so they've known of the situation all along, but I totally concur with those of you that have drawn that conclusion, it totally looks that way :P We'll try and change our habits a little bit to make this less of an issue.
P.S. Many of you are already aware of this, but, my account was created with the idea that I'd only favorite cards that won contests I (co)hosted, and as prizes for those contests. I wanted my favorites to be like a "hall of fame". I realize that it takes quite a bit of undisturbed time to finish these contests and didn't want to leave them unfinished so I only host when I think I will reliably be able to succeed in the work I've set for myself. I did make another account "Faiths_Faves" but it got corrupted and I could never log into it, so @squee and I have been sharing his account to favorite other smith's creations lately.
Thanks all,
Faiths_Guide

That's an idea!
I dunno, I still like the exclusivity of a "Faiths_Guide Favorite". Can I get an "oooh", "aaah"? @squee and I using his account for our favorites seems fine to me.
I personally love every one of those cards! It's a fantastic set!
