-<h1>A (WIP) History of 3 Card Magic</h1>

-<h2>A history of 3 Card Magic</h2>
-<p>I've been playing 3 Card Magic since 2007. I've played on the Wizards of the
-Coast forums, another small forum, and various other places.</p>
-<p>I attempted to find archives of the Wizards of the Coast community forums, the
-first place I am aware of that played 3CM. I personally played in 2007-2009,
-and was able to find a few threads on the internet archive, but not a full one.
-If you have any leads on this, please let me know.</p>
-<p>After Wotc
-24 seasons at No Goblins Allowed. Here is the last thread I found, which links to each previous one:
-<ul>
-<li><a href="https://www.nogoblinsallowed.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=17968">No Goblins Allowed</a></li>
-</ul>
-</p>
-<p>On MTG Salvation, there were "3 card blind" threads. I know little about these.</p>
-<h2>My philosophy</h2>
-<p>I am a 3cm purist -- I am most interested in "vanilla" 3 Card Magic, rather
-than variations. Magic is a complex enough game that even without additional
-restrictions, I think a simply dynamic banned list is enough to make 3CM interesting. </p>

-<h1>3 Card Magic</h1>
-<p>3 Card Magic is a Magic: The Gathering format with decks that consist of only three cards. Sometimes it is referred to as "3 Card Blind".</p>
-<p>I've found various forms of 3 Card Magic since the mid 2000s. For more information, see <a href="3cm-history.html">A history of 3 Card Magic</a>.</p>

-<h2>Detailed Rules</h2>
-<h3>Deckbuilding</h3>
-<p>Each player creates a deck of three Magic: the Gathering cards, excluding cards on the banned list, and submits it anonymously to the admin.</p>
-
-<h3>Gameplay</h3>
-<p>After the round is closed, each deck plays against each other deck twice, once
-going first and once going second. Normal Magic rules apply to a game of 3CM,
-except for the following exceptions:</p>
-
-<ul>
- <li>Players don't lose the game for drawing from an empty library.</li>
- <li>If the original source of a random effect (i.e. coinflip) comes from one player's deck, the other player chooses its outcome.</li>
- <li>Effects that get cards from outside the game (Wishes, Research // Development, Ring of Ma'ruf) cannot be used to find anything.</li>
-</ul>
-
-Games are played with the contents of both decks known to each player at all times. Players will always play optimally and to win.
-
-<h3>Scoring</h3>
-<p>
-When the round is closed, a table of all the decks and matchups is
-posted, to be filled in by the players. Players are encouraged to double-check
-the matchups graded by other players, since mistakes are often made when
-complicated decks are involved. A win is worth 3 points, a draw is 1 point, and
-a loss is 0 points.

-<p>The goal of the banned list will be to try and come up with a balanced format.
-I don't think that previous 3CM games have been able to do this. After many,
-many games of 3cm, I am of the (admittedly not universally shared) opinion that
-Black Lotus warps the for opinion that Black Lotus warps the format and sould
-be banned. The banned list will evolve over time to try and come up with a
-balanced format. I'm not aware of any attempts before at discovering what a
-"balanced" 3cm format is, ie, one that allows for a wide diversity of decks and
-innovation. I think most existing banned list are based on black lotus being unbanned ,so we are going to start small and expand from there.</p>
-<pre><code>
-All cards banned in Vintage
-Strip Mine
-Black Lotus
-Wasteland
-Blackmail
-Chancellor of the Annex
-Leyline of Anticipation
-Thassa's Oracle
-</code></pre>

-TBD as this evolves. Round results will be posted entirely on this website in table form.
