Some of the usual suspects didn't show up, hope to see you all next week.

To all,

Everything is set in stones, type 1 every Sunday @ SuperStars.  Start time at noon, the only thing we really didn't mention with everyone is time I think.  Since the 1k Vintage starts at noon, I just put noon out there.

SuperStars will be having weekly Vintage tourney every Sunday at noon.  20 proxies are allowed.

The entry fee is set at $8 per person but that can be changed upon negotiating among the players.  100% of the entry fee goes toward the prize support, so the more the merrier.

Approximately every third Sunday SuperStars will be holding Monthly Vintage 1K Tourney where the entry is $25 and 10 proxies only.  These tourneys will be announced ahead of time via new threads. 

Parking is free on Sunday, there is a parking structure next to the store, free before 6 pm, $3 after 6 pm.

Unfortuanlly head judge Eric Levine left home early sick after the tourney that day.  The decklist was gone when he came back the next day and therefore unable to post the lists.  My sincere apologies, this won't happen again.
