I won't be there.  Most of GWS will be skipping GenCon.  SCG events are way better.  There's no reason to go to GenCon if Magic is the most important thing there for us.

Arend, JR, Rich, and I will all likely be there.  Can't wait!

How about those prizes!

The Vintage Champs is a Mox Jet this year and Legacy gets oversized cards?!?

Also, I read this:

I wonder if this is something new (hopefully) or if it's just Italian Legends again.

Man, I wish I had power so I could go, as it sounds like an awesome time already.  Alas, I am also jobless, so I think I'll be skipping this one.

If I can get some Power I will probably play some of the Side events.  Still tossed up on which Main event I'm going to enter though but the Vintage boosters got me more interested in playing the Vintage main event.

Jeff, we'll need to talk over beers!  Last year wasn't good enough.

This Just In - Bob Yu is coming to Gencon!  *******************Bob Yu is deleted from Gencon***********************

Also, the Canadian Crew Gencon crowd grows larger every year.  Can't wait to hang out this year.

Aye, Gencon has never sucked and it certainly won't this year!  I'm up for organizing a 21+ night out in Indianapolis if people are interested.  It really hasn't been done and 4 straight days of cards is mind numbing.  Takers?

Gencon's about month out.  Any other comers?  Teams?

I'll put $20 down that Bob comes up with some bull shit to make sure this doesn't happen. I hope I'm wrong.

I'm hopefully gonna be able to make it out for Friday/Saturday, but it's still very much up in the air at this point.  I do know that AkumaGio's gonna be there reppin' SoCal, though I don't know about Nick and Jaco.

I'm up for suggestions.  I like Saturday night after the champs and Thursday night to kick-off the event.  My experience with Saturday is the champs sometimes ends after 2:00AM and that doesn't leave enough time at the bar or to hang out.

It's been forever since we all kicked it.  Last year during the finals Steve was video taping the final match and I all remember was laughing my ass off as he told Atog jokes and listening to F*cking Lou party!   That was definately a highlight of last years Gencon.  Steve, have you watched the tape - did you get any material recorded?

Nick's not going, neither is Akuma/Gio, and now neither are you (Pat/TracerBullet). Pussies.

I am going, as is Mike Anderson. BHWW x2. Double the pleasure, double the fun.

Damn Scott you forgot all about me when posting who's going to Gen Con. I will definately be there chilling with the Colorado Crew. The 21+ night I will however have to decline seeing as how I am only 18. If we find a restaraunt style place that serves beer I will be down to go. I hope to meet some good vintage players down there and maybe take home a huge Mox Jet.
