Well, as of now, the only piece of Power that I own that hasn't been earmarked for a prize already is an UL Lotus. I'm working out the details, but in the next week or so expect some clarification.

Hey guys, a quick update. I picked up some more Moxen yesterday, so the Lotus is going to be saved for the GRUDGE MATCH III, coming to Philly this summer.
See you all in June (and in the summer!)

Can we get a date on this ASAP. I need several weeks notice to request off from work and I know that I am not the only one who needs as much notice as possible.

Maybe you should put "Beta Mox Jet" in the subject line, because that's a much more appealing prize than we usually think of when you see "2 pieces of power"
From what I've been hearing there's a lot of interest in this one. It's going to be a good time.

SOUND OFF! Another extra special prize has been added to the prize pool tomorrow for someone TOTALLY RANDOM. Hint: It cures AIDS.

who won? I predict it was Allen Fulmer because he beat me in the Top 4, and we all know the rule that whoever takes me out wins the tournament (although interestingly his opponent, Shawn Anthony dealt me a loss in the Swiss. Tough call!) Allen was up one game when I left.

Shawn ended up winning it. I got game one like you mentioned and game 2 I had turn 1 fastbond, double Thoughtseize but it wasn't enough. Game 3, I resolve recall with reb backup, a turn or 2 later Shawn goes for recall I reb, he forces, I force. He has 3 cards in hand and goes fetch, fastbond, gush. Gushes into another gush, and another and jace and I get blown out. So unfortunately I did not get there after taking you down Paul, haha.

Yeah it feels good. I had a tough top 8 against Folinus, Griffiths, and Fulmer (who was playing the exact same deck!). My toughest games all day was definitely the Shawn mirror match in top 4. Paul, do you remember my mistake exactly? I thought it was keeping my Lotus Petal and just tapping my land so I could Tinker Key-Vault?
