Atlanta is still has a huge Legacy player base so hopefully the DragonCon events can draw them in with proxies. Is there a date/time set for a vintage event?

Not yet. The event list is here: http://sunmesaevents.com/spotlight/?ids=47 but there isn't a schedule yet.

8 man tourney?  Are you f***ing s***ing me?
Those are just the typical "Win-A-Box" tournaments, and are sanctioned no-proxy events.

you are hoping for 10?  This is why Vintage blows...except in New England and Ohio apparently.  What ever happened to 8 ROUNDS with 80+ players?  That was fun.  8 players is barely worth me getting out of bed.
I'm hoping to get over 16 (and ideally closer to 30), but the proxy event will be run with as few as 10.

Glenn Godard of Sunmesa Events has confirmed that there will be a Vintage 8-man tournament at Dragon*Con (in Atlanta: www.dragoncon.org). Incidentally, this year's gaming Guest of Honor at Dragon*Con? None other than Richard Garfield himself.


I asked him about the possibility of running an unsanctioned proxy event to draw more players, and he told me that if we could get 10 or more people, it'd happen, with a "cool prize".

So let's make this happen and bring Vintage back to the south. Within a week we'll have the full proxy rules and entry fee worked out. Feel free to throw suggestions my way - I'm also @JoshJMTG on twitter and a writer for www.quietspeculation.com. If you're going to Dragon*Con, send me a message!

Proxy schemes I'm familiar with:
- 10proxy
- 15proxy
- X proxies with $1/proxy after that, to some proxy cap
where proxies have to be basic lands to avoid potential confusion.
