P.S.  If perchance the link to our site doesn't play nicely with your browser, or you wind up Googling us later, please be sure to go to templecon.org instead of templecon.com, as a rival convention is cyber-squatting on our old domain, and we are definitely not the same animal...

Ooooh.  This is in my backyard... literally

I've heard good things about you guys previously, I'll make sure to keep my calendar clear for that weekend.

Cool.  Yeah, we have a bunch of other sanctioned and unsanctioned Magic stuff going on too, including a sanctioned Standard 2HG event on Saturday, a ton of drafts, and some old-school Chaos Melee group events (one of them standard, one vintage) that should be a lot of fun.   

We also managed to have the majority of the convention space literally steps away from the Westin's bar/lounge.    :lol:    Should be one hell of a weekend....

Thanks, Demonic.  Added the pricing information for the weekend to the original post.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to post a notice here to let you know that we've extended the pre-registration deadline to January 31st, as we still have new last-minute events coming in. The numbers are looking good, so pre-reg now if you haven't already.

Also, we had a couple of questions about mail-in pre-registration. We *do* have mail-in pre-registration, and the form for that can be found on the pre-registration page, or by clicking below (PDF format).

Oh, we also have a couple of dealer's tables open too if anyone would like to take advantage of that.   

One more month!

Will this tournament allow Planar Chaos cards?

[Evewalker]

Yep, Planar Chaos is allowed.   

Only a few days away...

I can't see in the post when this event starts.  I see the pre registration starts at 9, but that's all. 

For the record, this event is 5 proxies right?  That will greatly affect deck choices, so changing that at the last minute would not be cool.  If I can get some answers to these questions I may be able to attend.

Is anyone going to this?  I would like to go, but I'm not skipping a family birthday party for something that might not be happening.  I haven't heard anything about a start time yet.  Does anyone have info on this?

[Myriad Games]

I believe the tournament itself is beginning between 10 AM and 11 AM. I'm planning on being there by 9:30 just to be sure. I received confirmation from Evewalker via PM that this event is 5 proxies. Also, we'll be bringing decklist sheets for everyone who didn't have them pre-printed (in case they're not available on site) along with our cool Myriad Games Double Sided Match Record Sheets and Myriad Pens. Also, I'll be giving away Myriad Dice to all my opponents.

Looking forward to it!
