Ohio? Thank you WotC, you just gave me a place I can actually go for a Grand Prix.

I think the most surreal thing is when a complete stranger you meet at a tournament hears your name and goes "Oh, yeah. I've read your stuff." It's kind of weird, yet feels good all at the same time.

DUDE!!! Seriously? I am so bothering you about this every day. I already know what deck you're playing too!

As I've already posted on the SCG forums (thanks Anusien, I thought I was done checking TMD for the day), I will be doing everything in my power to be there.

Everyone needs to make sure to get the word out.  We can easily beat the 500+ that showed up in Philly.  I'd love to see the 900+ that was in Lille be broken.  Wizards deserves some props.  Osyp (for writing his Iggy Pop report and calling Wizards out on supporting Legacy) deserves some props (I don't think he's directly responsible, but I have to imagine that when a Pro asks you to please run more events, that you listen just a little bit).

This is crazy, I'm freakin out over here. I mean... no driving 8+ hours for this event this time, this event is going to be held in my state. GP, for the Legacy format? What the hell is going on at the Wizards headquarters... I thought they didn't like our format?

Wow.  This is easily the best news I've heard in weeks.  I get out of school a week before this, so I'll be able to avoid the trains and take my junker station wagon down the entirety of the PA Turnpike. 

Nothing to get oneself ready for a major tournament like hours of driving through Amish country and miscellaenous farmland.

This is the best news I've heard in years. I live 15 minutes from the Convention Center. Anyone I met at Gencon or in Garden City is absolutely welcome to stay at my house.

EDIT: Even though I haven't met Bardo or Mr. Nightmare, they're invited too because they're cool d00d's.

I'm sure a certain Canadian will be looking to improve his performance by 4 or more spots.

Too bad you're kinda dead by then since Salvager is a sorcery speed activation (but ya know, CWish for Freeze with in response to them targeting Spellbomb after 50 million LED activations I hear is some good)...

Belatedly, I should be there.  Luckily I'll be just getting back from the beach in Virginia instead of being in Georgia, so that cuts an hour and a half off the drive.  Hopefully I can get up with the VA crew or so.  I'll be there as hard as I can.

I know I've done well when people are making jokes about the deck I've created. Hee.

While I love Salvagers/Gamekeeper, I was mentally beating Machinus with my UWr Legacy Bomberman deck. Smile - Bardo

I will be in attendance coming from NH. I'm going to find out how many empty seats i'll have in my car within 2 weeks. Anyone interested in hitching a ride should let me know as soon as possible. Priority goes to BAC members and Myriad Games regulars <3
