Snow update: LI is getting 1-3 on Friday, that's it. So stop being pansies.
Meh, a little snow ain't gonna scare me. I earned my snow-driving wings delivering pizzas in a foot of snow down unplowed streets! ... of course I'm not driving to this one, I'm hitching a ride on the Nick Coss bus! ... hopefully he doesn't read this and ask me to drive! I need a 4th ed. Korean Swords to Plowshares to round out my play set to get signed. Looking for Mint condition... had 2 come in the mail and the 4th was fucked; thanks post man. Somebody halp me! :'( I have an FBB StP, not sure what language it is or if it's minty fresh. (It's from the prize pool of the Dan Herd tourney if that helps anybody.) I'll make sure to bring it along. We still down for credit card game at the after party? YEAHHHHHHHH |

@ Marske, I guess the Bono Guy could have been, but the hotel lobby traffic was a failboat harbor....Also I play for Euros none of that fake money crap haha.....
@ Jake, Like a hot dog down a hallway......you have to test all alternatives just to make sure your not missing something, clearly you have yet to test Serum Powder....
@Jimmy, Obv best story.....
mark one day you will sit down for a match and game 2 will go like this all your hands you powder away will have like 3 pieces of hate and than you have no hate left when you hit bazaar and lose and you realize im sitting right next to you and i will fall off my chair laughing NOW I GET IT!!! I see why the "great" Jake Gans doesn't use Serum Powder, it is because he powders everything away....You OBV don't powder away all of your answers or bazaars despite you playing with nine Jake. We will have The Talk when your a little older so you understand how the birds and the bees as well as Serum Powder and mulliganing work.....  And thats ladies and gentlemen is the reason why he was the first pick of the waterbury t8 draft Wait Serum Powder and mulliganing don't work like the birds and the bees? |

The Player of the Year race is a points race that runs from 1/23 through the final N.Y.S.E tournament of 2010. Only points from major N.Y.S.E. events (not N.Y.S.E. Lites or weekly tournaments at Mark's Comics) count towards the standings. 3 points are awarded for a win, 1 point is awarded for a draw.
This is the additional bonus given to the top 8:
1st - 12 points
2nd - 9 points
3rd/4th - 6 points
5th-8th - 3 points
Thus if a player has 15 points at the end of the Swiss standings, and this player wins the event, the player would get an additional 12 points for a grand total of 27 points on the day.
The winner of the N.Y.S.E. Player of the Year race gets free entry into all major (not N.Y.S.E. Lite or weekly Vintage touranments) N.Y.S.E events for 2011. I'm working on a trophy as well.
Oh I have the trophy. One could say it was a gift from Ed Goodwin. Gold spray paint + trophy stand + Ed Goodwin Chronicles = greatest trophy of all time. We'll be sure to spray it in cologne too. I'm going to get NYSE events sponsored by Axe bodyspray. |

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
Mark Hornung wins the under on how long it would take you to reply.
The line? Drawn at 2 f-ing minutes...
I can never win!
O.C.D. + German obstinacy + Irish determination = Prospero I'm leaving for the event now, I hope to see everyone in a few hours... If by a few you mean 12, I'll be there! |

I'd like to add that I firmly believe that the after party for this event will be the best after party we have ever had. It looks like everybody is going to be there. I hope that Fridays doesn't mind seating 30.
Accepting all challengers for a dance off for the Club TGI Fridays trophy! You name the dance buddy. |

I rocked the keeper to an undefeated swiss and lost to oath like a hero in the top 8.
It was great to see you there though. I wouldn't still be coming to events if it wasn't for people I value in the community. I heard you were coming down and I had to make the journey. Next time its green label for all. |

Out of sheer fortunate coincidence I will be on the Island, AND I have some vintage stuff with me, AND that day I am left to occupy myself. So I am definitely attending.
Tips for getting out there via LIRR from Remsenburg?
The closest LIRR train is probably Speonk from where I remember Remsenburg is. If you can make it to babylon you can take the train to Merrick or Bellmore and I can help you out from there. |

If you take the train I'll pick you up and I don't even know you. WHAM! BAM! Community Building can i hop a ride on this gravy train too? No problem Tom. I can pick you up on Sunday from the Oceanside train station. PM me and we'll talk times, and I'll give you my number. Lemme know if you need me to drive anyone |
