GoC:   You're a teacher AND play Magic? We should talk sometime. I'm actually very close to selling off my Vintage and Legacy cards, seeing as how I stand to make 1000% profit on my Revised duals and such. :D

Me: Yip. I'm THAT teacher at my school. The one that teaches Maths, plays MTG, Fallout, Skyrim, CoC etc etc. Happy to talk about picking up some bargains. Is there a PM type function on this wikia? Doesn't apply to just GoC mind you.

And as for the flavour issue, here's a little MTG tie-in that might make it clear what they do:

I think the flavour text sums up what GoC was saying quite well. Even applies to the arbitrary swinging of the ban-hammer too.
