MTG Phobias

Soon I will post my next research post. On either Saturday or Sunday! If I get to monday with no post! Bombard me with emails pressuring me to get it moving!

The time is at hand everyone! Today I am going to present my project  before at minimum 140 other students and at maximum many more! Wish me luck! You all have helped me get this far!

I have a new blog address that i believe is more memorable and relevant! My teacher has given the go ahead to change the op to my liking! The new link is mtgphobias.blogspot.com Enjoy!

Ok... I have been having intense writer’s block as of late and I still have the last third of an essay already late and I need to turn that in today. So long story short: I typically get writer’s block when I need to write the most and it stops when its past. So I need to cram out that essay and then I should have that alleviated. I wont post Allodoxaphobia. I love that research too much to make it any other post. This will be like Nyctophobia. On September 1st Iwill post Allodoxaphobia. Until then I will first post the other Phobias I have made so far. The cards & research to expect soon are (all haven’t been researched yet though...): Photophobia: Fear of Light https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/photophobia?list=user Phobophobia: Fear of Fear https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/phobophobia?list=user That last one probably won’t be soon though... So thanks anyway!

As this post’s title probably suggests, this is a heartfelt thanks to all of you who have commented on, read, supported, or even acknowledged my blog. In other words, if you came here looking for some sweet research, you’re gonna have to wait until later today, when I post Allodox. Photophobia should be posted monday. But enough about that. This post is dedicated to all of my readers so far, and to the many more that will hopefully come. Most of my notable thanks go to members of the Cardsmith Community who have supported, whether it be by commenting, supporting me, making cards about the fear aspect of my user, etc. Thank you @Tomigon aka Kohei Tomita (I will remove that if you dont want it there) He has been a consistent viewer on my blog and was the first to make a card based on me that supported the blog. Give him a hand everyone! (I am going to assume that you are clapping) https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/ranshi-tormentor-of-souls-2 Thank you @sorinjace and...

This is just a small test of something to come. Ignore this. <a href=" https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/sloth-god "><img src=" https://mtgcardsmith.com/view/complete/full/2018/4/22/1524433129788064.png " width="35%"></img></a> If you are wondering wtf is going on, dont bother. If it does work, ignore the sloth god.

So I am going to be posting stuff for the fear cards Ihave made so far. Expect a post on every friday. (Hopefully this time I’ll actually be able to follow through 😅)

I have been mulling over what to do for Phobophobia, the big guy, the fear of fear itself. The more you think about how that would work, suffering from it, the worse and worse you realize it is. It is one of those infinitely spiraling loops of agony. But that isnt the point. I am posting right now to tell you what to expect. I will be posting my Allodoxaphobia research which I am very happy with. (Later today) On either tomorrow or Tuesday, I will be posting Ambulophobia. And every month or two starting on this friday I will be posting a different card on Phobophobia. This is because it is fear of fear itself and that is so very vast that it can manifest in a plethora of ways. So feel free to whenever you get an idea for Phobophobia, comment it and I will consider it. The first Phobophobia I had come up with and when asking the Cardsmith community for their idea on Phobophobia, someone suggested the same thing. Because of that, it will be first. Thank you @Tomigon! That was just a...

A fellow Cardsmith user, modnation675, has made a contest that I have been waiting for: A contest about fear! The one of the prizes for first place is a month of premium membership on him! This is a big deal for me, so expect me to be giving it my all in the next 3 phobia cards! THANK YOU INTERNET! THANK YOU MODNATION675! AND THANK YOU CARDSMITH!

Alektorophobia - The Fear of Chickens ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- WORD FACTS: Alektorophobia is derived from the Greek root, alektoro , which comes from the Greek word Alektor , which means rooster. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- SCIENCE: Alektorophobia is an isolated phobia, meaning that as far as people are aware, it is simply a combination of bad luck, genetics, and trauma. I am so sorry that I cannot provide a more interesting explanation. But I do have a couple fun facts: - Alektorophobia will sometimes (and this is very rare) also encompass chicken eggs and dead chickens, such as you might find in a grocery store. - Some sufferers will claim that chickens are not stupid but rather "****ing clever conspiratorial beasts" and aggressive. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTO...
