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.
