Standard 10 card Proxy with a $1.00 buy per extra card up to 15.

* It is the judges' discretion as to whether or not any given proxy is allowed; if you have any concern, we will check your proxies before the
event, and we will have a bunch of basic land and Sharpies in the event that some or all of your proxies don't meet our approval.
* It should be immediately clear to your opponent and any passersby what any proxied card is supposed to be.
* No substitution lists ("Every Counterspell in my deck is supposed to be Mana Drain.")
* No slips of paper in sleeves, even if glued to the card -- they can affect the thickness and rigidity, which affects randomization.
* No Collectors' Edition, even if you've trimmed down the corners.
* Acetone is cheap and easy to use to erase cards, with some masking tape, Q-Tips, cotton balls, and ventilation.
* Try to use cards with as many attributes -- type, mana cost, etc. -- that match the card you're proxying as possible.
* You may also use a fine-point Sharpie to write on the back of a card, so long as the sleeves you are using are completely opaque, and you
write clearly. These proxies and your sleeves should definitely be checked by the Head Judge before shuffling up. Please don't just write the
card name on the front of a card -- it can be too easy for your opponent across the table to mistake your Mox Ruby for the Mountain on which
you've written. Also, the more information you include, the better; at the very least, you'll want name (of course), mana cost, types/subtypes, and
power/toughness if it's a creature.

I would advise changing the date since Full of Win has a tournament planned for the same day and conflicting tournaments is never good for business.

Since that's 3 hours away, I don't think it really needs mentioning.  We should have fireworks though, so maybe we need some PA players to show up.

Hi,   I would love to be able to run a tournament on a date when no other store / venue is running one. But this does not seem to be a possibility with the Vintage community. I looked for a date that would be best for those in my area and those that are asking me to run more Vintage events. Unfortunately, the dates that are available between now and January are all tied up with events, and so, I chose a date which conflicted the least with venues in my area. I wish no one ill will or any harm in running my event but in the end I must do what I believe to be the best for me and my local player base. To that end I hope that FoW has a great turnout and can understand my position.

Anyone bringing or sending their decklist on line or on a thumb drive will recieve a free soda. I hate typing so saving me time is a good thing. I will STILL REQUIRE YOU TO HAVE A  PAPER copy of your decklist. Thanks to all that are coming it should be a great day.

I'll be there along with Jake Gans, JP Kohler and Jon Varelakis.  I considered making the trip to PA, but this is an hour closer.

[KingSquee]

There were 13 players thus there were 4 rounds of swiss followed by a cut to top 4.

Top 4:

Jake Gans (Snapcaster Control) defeats Nick Detwiler (Espresso Stax MUD Marinara Forino Sui-Black)

Scott Hughes (Red Shops) defeats Ray Robillard (Landstill)

Finals:

Scott defeats Jake

I ran Mykie Noble Fish and ended up 3-1, missing Top 4 on breakers. Yep, a round 1 loss will do that.

I just didn't hit my Shops over the course of five rounds.
