Magic: The Gathering Online VS Cockatrice

Forge and XMage are both community-driven projects and I think they are great examples of FOSS applied to gaming. They are not simple attempts to copy the official (and closed source) MtG client (MTGO); they actually introduce many new features (e.g., portability, single player modes, and the ability to self-host a MtG server to play with your friends) that either enhance or complement each other and the official...

I started playing in Draft. Usually it's on Friday nights, at your LGS (local game store) and is $15 (i think $15 is manetory).

My favorite is Cockatrice even though you sound like a mostly in person seeking fellow. It is a web application that is like a card game simulator, it plays magic and can auto update to show you card images, doesn't cost a dime and theoretically could play other games like Android Netrunner if you really wanted to, downside is it sometimes changes domains if the authorities try and shut it down, but the last one...
