"Just thought you should know..." July 2009 update bulltein

The July update bulletin is up here. Unsurprisingly, there are a lot of card changes (changing zone names will do that), and the usual Mark Gottlieb funnies:

How do you play Coal Stoker as a land? Simple: Have a Coal Stoker already on the battlefield, equip it with Runed Stalactite so it's a Saproling, control Life and Limb so it's also a land, and play Vesuva copying it. Sadly, you'll no longer get any mana in this situation. Just thought you should know.

Scylant:

And the one about damage being marked:
"Past rules said that damage dealt to a creature is "on" that creature. This could be more descriptive, more active, and more named after me." :)

Also great blog. I've been reading for a few months now and it's informative, insightful and easy to read. Keep up the great job! :)

Thanks for the kind words (and yes, I do enjoy Gottlieb's humor for some reason).
