Curiosity, why is this on a Sunday instead of the typical Saturday events?

[Myriad Games]

As we always try to work with the other local tournament organizers to avoid overlap, we scheduled around Pandemonium's Saturday tournament and ELD's two events, which left only this weekend. We had another event already scheduled here at the store for that Saturday, so we put this event on Sunday. This also allows folks who usually can't make our Saturday events to enjoy the fun of the Myriad Games Vintage Experience.

We'll look forward to seeing everyone here in a couple of weeks. Be sure to preregister today!

I won't be able to attend due to my niece's baptism, but there will still be two Custom Proxies given out.  The voting for this proxy can be found here. 

[Myriad Games]

Sorry to hear you won't be able to make it, Eric. On the upside, that means that there will actually be 8 slots available out of the Top 8, rather than the usual 7 when you're in attendance

Thank you as always for providing the Custom Proxies that help make New England Vintage great!

The Custom Proxies are good to go.  Unfortunately, I will not be in attendance so I'm brainstorming on a way to get the cards to Salem for Sunday.  If anyone attending is going to be in the Bellingham area before Sunday and wants to pick up the cards, that would be great.  I've been insanely busy, so I just finished the proxies today.  I had to develop the new tech for getting so much text on the cards, but I'm happy with the end result.  Looks like Chains of Mephistopheles can be an option for next time!

[Myriad Games]

Thanks for the update, Eric. We'll look forward to seeing everyone here for another great Vintage event this Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!!!

[ELD]

If I don't hear from someone, I'll have to just mail the Custom Proxies to the winners.  If the winners prefer, they could also pick them up from me at Scholar's or ELD's Mox XX next weekend.  GL to everyone who attends.

Is anyone driving up from Boston that has spare room in their car?

Thanks to everyone who attended this event today. A full report has been posted here.

We'll look forward to seeing everyone at our next Vintage event coming up on Saturday, November 8th.
