Wow, this is cool for anyone who lives in Richmond. I hope these will be popular and well-reported.

Intriguing, although I'm disappointed packs don't scale for # of players.  Might be worth eschewing T2 for.

They will scale if we get enough players, however I don't anticipate getting that many players. But if we get above 32 players we'll up it another box.
