MiseTings (also Misetings) is a Magic: The Gathering humour site and forum directed at a more mature (17/18+) audience than most other Magic forums like MTGNews and MTG Salvation. Misetings is notorious for their satire of recent issues in the Magic world with Photoshopped card images and articles. Besides discussing recent happenings in the world of Magic, there is also room for normal Magic strategy and general discussion as well as Mafia games.
History
MiseTings is owned and operated by Mike Bregoli, a former professional Magic: the Gathering player. The name of the site comes from a combination of two different Magic slang phrases: "mise" and "tings". Both words can be used to describe an incredible Magic phenomena. More specifically, "to mise" can be defined as "to obtain something that is unusually great or unexpected" or as "a mise", something that is unusually great or unexpected"; "tings" is simply short for "beatings".
The Misetings forum is notorious for its harsh, uncensored language and self-moderation. The site also introduced various catchphrases like "sarnath'd", "annoraxed", "In before ...", "Maro is batshit insane!", and a number of famous smilies, such as "Trey" (
).
Among the sites members are MTG Salvation's Fogatog, Furor (as Gisgo), Kijin, kingcobweb (who has since been banned and deleted), sneakyhomunculus (as sneakyh), and extremestan (as paz).
As of December 12th, 2007, MiseTings has been taken offline. Fans have since built a MiseTings legacy forum, MiseTings2. The original MiseTings forum have since been restored.
