  Living in Tune - Iyar
Therefore it is surely no accident that Iyar is the month where past, present and future connect in ways that dazzle the soul.
Iyar, therefore, is the time when we are asked to re-experience on a daily basis this ancient journey from Egypt to Sinai.
Just as Iyar is the month that connects future and past, so too is it the month that connects the external and internal aspects of Jewish identity.

 Iyar in Sefer Yetzirah (the Book of Formation)
Iyar links together the two months of Nissan and Sivan (by the power of "sefirat haomer," which begins in Nissan, continues throughout Iyar, and concludes in Sivan), the month of redemption and the month of the giving of the Torah.

We are beginning the month of Iyar; a month that seeks to turn us eastward, toward the home we love, toward Israel.
Iyar is the primary month of the counting of the omer, when we seek to spiritually prepare ourselves for a reenactment of revelation on Mt. Sinai.

 Radical Torah » Blog Archive » Rosh Chodesh Iyar and the Return to Tachanun
Three days later was Shabbos Mevarchim for Chodesh Iyar in which we begin to prepare ourselves for the upcoming month.
So somehow the transition into Iyar brings up the need for all of us to examine the details of a long lost disease called Tzara’at, which only the Kohanim had the power to diagnose and treat, and which is closely related to Lashon Hara.
Iyar however presents and entirely different paradigm of vidui than the old guilt trip we’re all so used to.

 Sichos In English: Shabbos Parshas Shemini Mevorchim Chodesh Iyar 26th Day Of Nissan, 5740
Iyar is an acronym for the names Avraham, Yitzchok, Yaakov, and Rochel, who are referred to as the four legs of the chariot.
Iyar is unique in that there is a specific Mitzvah — Sefiras HaOmer — related to every day of the month.
For that reason, Iyar is connected to “G-d’s chariot.” When one is a chariot for G-dliness, i.e., when one has no individual will of his own, he will not mind going from a state of revelation to a state of concealment since that it G-d’s will.

In Iyar, we count the Omer every day in commemoration of the daily barley offering that was brought to the Temple from the second day of Pesach until Shavuot.
May we therefore use this month of Iyar to progress, one day at a time, along the path that will bring us closer to God and to others.
And may we continue to be inspired by the message of Pesach Sheni, which tells us that no effort in the spiritual realm is ever lost and that we always have a second chance to start anew.

 The Month of Iyar at OU.ORG
The name "Iyar" is, like the others in the Hebrew Calendar, of Babylonian origin.
The fourteenth of Iyar is known as the "Second Pesach" because it was on that date that Jews had a "second chance" at participating in the rituals of Pesach, if they'd been unable to do so in Nisan, because of ritual uncleanness or because they had been far away from home at that time.
Iyar is a month of tragedy and triumph, encompassing "Yom HaZikaron," commemorating those who gave their lives for Eretz Yisrael, and "Yom Yerushalayim," the day marking the return of the Jewish People, with the help of G-d, to their capital city and the Temple Mount.

 Sabertooth Games: Iyar banned! Why?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
As stated in the banning post it was banning because it prolongs game play, most bannings are done because of this.
If I were to guess, Iyar was banned by mistake (someone forgot that without Unexpected Quarter it is not such a big problem).
Iyar, along with all of the other cards banned, was included for a reason - there was no "mistake" as you put it.
