An Unlimited Mox Jet (EX condition) as the Grand Prize 2.

PM nataz (me, Jared Carter) on TMD-Okay guys, this is round two. Jake and I, in an effort to improve tournament style play in the Northern NE area are holding regular Mox tourneys. Honestly we are just two type one players who were sick of never having any decent type one events in our area. So we took a page out of Ray and Steve’s book and decided to hold our own.
This is our second mox tourney; the first one was a huge success for us. Lots of people showed up, and it was a great time. Interest in type one has really spiked in the area, and we want to keep it up!
You can read about our first one here (

This tournament is basically a repeat of the last, with a Jet offered as first prize instead of a pearl.
If this one goes as well as the last, we will be holding two more this summer. The next two will most likely be much further south (no more the 20 mins from the Maine/NH boarder) with a lotus + lots more power and expensive stuff (bazaars, workshops, drains etc.) as a possible prizes.
I know the entry fee is steep, but we make up for it by giving out tons of prizes. As you can see in our last event we gave out a mox, an abyss, a mana drain, multiple draft sets, tee shirts and dual lands.
We aren't making money off this, and we are basically "selling" the mox and other cards at cost once all of our overhead is paid off. The more people that enter, the more we give away in playable cards, that simple. The point of these is to provide support for as many people as possible, and hopefully convince them to invest in Type One.
So come on down and help some fellow TMD’rs raise interest and awareness of our favorite format.
I hope to see you there
