MOX JET, BOULDER CO! GUEST ARTISTS!!

[pierce]

Ok my brethern, I got the goods this time.

October 19th, 2008 we will be holding a 15 proxy tournament for a Unlimited Mox Jet.

But that's not all. Second place gets an Underground Sea, and Third a Savannah.

Dan Frazier will be there, and I have to imagine that he'll sign that Mox Jet.

Doug Shuler might be in attendence, though I cannot promise that at this juncture. Still a maybe.

So let's just review the facts:

Time Warp Comics & Games

3105 28th St
Boulder, CO 80301
(303) 443-4500

Sunday October 19th. 11 AM Registration, tournament starts at noon.

15$ gets you 15 proxies, but wait--there's more! Additonal proxies can be purchased at 50 cents a pop.


Last time I posted some tournaments, I went so far as to challange people to come and try to beat me. Well, given that I've had two finals appearances in my last two tournaments here in this fine state, I will just have to keep banging you locals like gongs.

Ha ha! With a comment like that, I hope SOMEONE can prove me wrong.

Steve, two things.....
1) Beating you is not a challenge.
2) Stillmoon Cavalier is not a win condition 

Seriously though, I'll make an effort to have Team Black Gold represent at this one.  Sounds like it will be an event not to be missed.

Carl

[pierce]

And I certainly hope you guys come, the more the merrier!

I especially hope you come carl. It's sad to say that only three local players have winning records against me in vintage. And while Scotty Limoges (1-0) and Travis Spero (2-0) might be expected, you now have a 2-1 lead against me. And I just have to at least even that up 

[JewLightning]

You guys are all fucking toast at this event. I am going to bring my A game and win that Mox. I am also going to bring one Scott Limoges with me and hopefully talk Bob Jew into joining the fun.

Brennen

[Lou]

Damn, I really hope I am in town for this one. I might be in Dallas.

Ed Word and Time Warp are bringing the fucking heat with this one.

A Mox Jet and Dan Frazier. Shit son.

I heard tell from Jerry Yang that with a months notice, a car-full of Ohioans (sp? wtf?) might try to make a Colorado tournament. I'm sure couches/chairs/floors can be found for all parties wanting to make the trek to beautiful Boulder, CO. Come see what it's like to play Magic a mile high.

Carl winning an event? Come on guys, the Crew obviously needs to show up and represent.

[JewLightning]

I know seriously not one of us showed up to that cash tournament to knock him off his high horse.  I do hope some Ohioans show up that would be awesome.

Hey, even a blind squirrel will find an acorn once in a great while    The only thing standing between me and total Magic supremacy is the Coloardo Crew. 

[JACO]

How far of a drive is this from Denver airport?

[Clown of Tresserhorn]

Like an hour...I'd be happy to pick up peeps from the airport with enough notice. Unfortunately, my place cannot hold anyone. It's a serious pile.

If Scotty Lucksack shows, so may I...

[Lou]

You need to find three other knuckleheads and get a road trip to Colorado in the works.  You'll drive through such inspirations as Gothenburg, KS and fucking Iowa City.

[yangtime]

Oh my!  20 hour road trip?  I'm in the process of finding dudesweats now.  If I can fill up a car, it'll get there.

[JewLightning]

Fuck Iowa City!

@ Jerry: The more the merrier I hope you can get a crew together to make the trek down.

[pierce]

The Colorado Crew? What a bunch of tier two players those guys are 

If people from Ohio show up, I will shit myself. Then I'll slap it between two slices of bread and leave it out in the open and see if anyone punches it.

In all seriousness, I might have to actually playtest in order to win this one.

[JewLightning]

The prize support has just increased! I am donating my Grim Tutor to second place or wherever Ed would like it to go. It's a little beat but it is still a Grim Tutor.

Brennen

Shit fire, that is mighty kind of you Brennen.

This is probably the biggest prize support Colorado has seen. This should be an epic event.

[JewLightning]

I will definitely be there with my Grim Tutor to take all you bitches down.

[Zwadishim]

Hello all its Matthew Guzzo and I wanted to say that the magic sux out here pretty bad but I have an idea based on one of the new cards and maybe you guys could check it out with me.  Email me at guzzo.matthew@colorado.edu or call at 720-435-6913.

[Clown of Tresserhorn]

WORD ON THE STREET IS


THE Scotty Lucksac will be in attendance, along with the Clown of Tresserhorn (aka Harrison Ford fan #1). Watch out Colorado, you are about to get savaged by the mediocrity of two has-beens!

[pierce]

thats great news! we had an eight man today, and jewlighting stood true to his intial word and brought his A game . . .

of course, when we cut to top 4, only I wanted to do winner take all 

there has been some questions asked about the proxies. here are the rules: they must be clearly marked cards. No backwards cards please, only basic lands or cards with the same mana cost with the appriopriate rules text and new card name. The more obscure the card, or more rules text it has, the more is needed. Dont just write "helm of obidience" and 4, artifact.

For example, your basic island/mountain/plains with Ancestral Recall--U Instant is welcome (we all know what it does right?) So is your air bladder, jump, or gigadrose with the old name marked through, and Ancestral recall written in. Your (reaches for random card nearby) Loxodon gatekeeper is not welcome as an ancestral recall--unless you mark it as an instant, put it's mana cost in, and change the name. Please remove as much of the limited relevant text on him too, please.

I WILL NOT TOLERATE ANY FOIL PROXY CARDS. THE DAYS OF CHEATER ANCESRALS ARE OVER.

K? everyone peachy?


this should be an interesting tournament! who all is coming?

[Lou]

This is a bush league move, and quite weak.

[pierce]

do you really want me to use that 'lucky' lotus? does anyone? Immagine if I played ad nasuem.dec with that thing--how many turn ones would I have?

nuff said. it hurts me too pal.

[JewLightning]

If you are going to outlaw foil proxies then you should outlaw foils in general. You can have some pretty busted foil cards that you always want to draw. Ancestral is probably the best, but still there are some busted foil cards like Yawg's Bargain. That's just my two cents.

Brennen

Yeah, what a slippery slope. My ink is making my proxy thicker?

[Clown of Tresserhorn]

It's awesome that I still have FOIL:

Bargain
Brainstorm
Ponder
Tendrils
Gifts
ISLANDS

I will be one cheating ass Asian, as I know I can't beat Cheon fair square in VIntage, but I could definitely take him down in every other aspect of life.

[aosquirrels]

I believe 4-6 of us from Black Gold will represent.  I don't care how well I do as long as I beat Fucking Lou! 

Here's my decklist that I plan on winning with....

51 Swamp
1   Tomb of Urami (alt. win condition)
4   Serum Powder
4   Kormus Bell

No sideboard!

I'm sure we will see Tomb of Urami and maybe Serum Powder in your black Stax list, but one thing is for sure, you will not be beating me.

Still undecided on what to play, but I'm pretty sure I'll be taking this event down.

I think GP Kansas City will hurt attendance a little bit, but this should still be a monster!

i ought not, I will not. There is simply no reason. It is not a slippery slope. Please use a dictionary before making such ridiculous claims.

GP kansas will be taking at least four of our normal players, Cheon included.

EDIT: carl is clearly going to play parfait. He's been joking about it for years, and now he's been given the push he needs to actually play it.

[JewLightning]

@ Bob not only do you beat Cheon at life, but you will definitely beat him at Vintage any day of the week. I mean Dobby destroyed him in the CS mirror.

@ Carl you definitely won't be taking this event down because the Colorado Crew will actually be in attendance at this event.

@ Steve I appreciate the A game comment, but I must admit it was probably not my A game. I had to play against Harry who didn't know how to play his deck, and Shiloh who should have wrecked me, but I got two Goyfs into play.

Brennen

[Fall-Titan]

Yea, Unfortunately I gotta head out to Kansas City in my efforts to become a real boy... err Magic Player.

Gotta keep the money streak at Grand Prixs alive after all, pro points help the cause as well.

But hopefully this is an awesome tourney and anyone other than that smelly ass Asian wins. Bob Yu ruined Fact or Fiction for me...

Conley

[Clown of Tresserhorn]

Damnit Conley! I was hoping to extend my 3-1 record against you! Oh well.

I know I said this before, but I WILL be in attendance (at least for 2 rounds, after which The Luck Sac and I will probably go climbing/bouldering @ Eldo).

As a matter of fact,

I have some Sa-Weet Proxies (just ask ANY local here) and foils I will be giving out to ANYONE who beats me...

COME ON!!!!!!

Here's your chance to win FOIL playable rares or CUSTOM proxies from a washed up has-been!!! It's easier than taking candy from a baby!

Ohio Crew/Jerry Yang: Ya'll coming out to this?

To ANYONE who wants to come out from out of state:

I don't have a place for you to crash, but I will get you CRUNK and introduce you to the thug life that is known as Colorado! Loose women, quality ganja, and cheap drinks. WHO CAN RESIST!

If you you're looking for a good time (and some signatures for your moxes), COME OUT TO COLORADO

Meet some of the most chill people you'll ever know and have a good ass time!

YOU KNOW HOW WE DO!
