I really hope this one flops like Charlotte, not because I hate SCG, on The contrary, I <3 SCG, but I'm quite spiteful of the fact they didn't have a Chicago. Driving 10+ hours to every event = suck.

You've had events, and you'll have more events. There are a TON of players who have been waiting forever for a Boston SCG event. |

I'm gonna go ahead and say that anywhere outside of New England is kinda like Baseball's National League, even if you win the NL championship you're just the best of a bad lot and then you get swept in the world series AND EVERYBODY KNOWS IT. |

Michigan players are apparently so good that we don't need to go to any events. We just sit around, smoke and drink and play the Slaver V Gifts mirror over and over. If my teamates don't completely vag out (for the third consecutive time) I would most likely attend this event. |

Does anyone know if the sub shop next door is still as good as it used to be? There is a definate lacking of good sub shops down here and that is one of the things about the trip I am looking forward to.

Was still reasonably tasty when I was there a few months ago at a random PTQ, but I currently live in cleveland circle where there are superior sub shops. This is exactly a week before I ship. I will be at this event. It doesn't matter what it takes.
I will fly.
I will drive.
I will walk.
I will hitchike.
I will ride piggyback.
If you try and stop me, then woe is you. I will go into lifetime debt if needs be. I will be there.
Sweet, now all you need to do it talk methu into coming. |

Well after unloading lots of cardboard at gencon, i'm looking for a new car and this might be just the trip to break it in! Besides I missed worlds (due to working a booth all four days) and I think i've won/split enough small tourneys this year to be due for a big one!!! Expect some # of GWSers to be here and making insane plays!

By some curious quirk of fate, I happened to get both days off from work without asking.
I'll be there, and lose something fierce.
