Most likely not, since metamagic is used to augment spells and is rather advanced spellcraft. Plus, what would be the point of dividing something like Magic Missile or other low-tier spells? Even if you Maxmimize a tier 2 spell, a tier 3 spell would generally still be more powerful on average, which would make it a waste of Mana to even use it. :P
I mean, if you really want to use it, I suppose you could, but it won't really be of any great use or benefit until your character's level is higher and they can use more powerful spells. ^^;
So many elves...
Also, good news: Got my hands on an AC before the summer's here, so no more sweltering suffering for this dood. Gonna be nice and cool when the sunny season hits this year, aw yeah~
