*There will be an Unlimited Chaos Orb given to the player that travels from the furthest distance! -You must present a valid state ID when claiming the prize.*

What about those of us who live/work at school most of the year but have state ID's for where their parents live?

I'm really exicted for this, and will due my best to make it. I'm flying from Denver to Hawaii for the PT, then flying back to OSU for a summer reasearch gig. Two weeks into that, I'm going to hussle a ride to this event. I'm definately doing the most traveling, but I'm guessing you'll only count the drive from OH  Surprised

I have no problem being on the same team with you Twaun.  It's you who has the heart filled with hate for MeanDeck.  You know that hate leads to suffering right?

 Wink

Powerful you have become, I sense the dark side in you. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will. Remember Yangtime, there is always two, a master and an apprentice. We know who the master is. We just need to know if you're the apprentice or just one of the Sith Lord's puppets.

So in other words, the A Team (the only one with a chance of winning from ICBM) of TK and Owen (probably with some rando)  And the B Team of everyone else?

The ICBM B-team has more major top8s then most teams, so I feel like its going to be a good team competition.

So in other words, the A Team (the only one with a chance of winning from ICBM) of TK and Owen (probably with some rando)  And the B Team of everyone else?

TK--won a Starcity, 2nd at Gencon, top 8 GP Chicago, won/split at least 2 dozen pieces
Owen--won a Starcity, 2nd at GP Colombus, won/split a dozen pieces at least
Jamison--won a Starcity, plus won a couple other pieces
Spooky--won a Starcity, won/split a dozen pieces or so
James King--won two Lotuses
Me--won/split a dozen pieces or so
Dan--2nd at a Starcity, split/won well over a dozen pieces
I@n--won/split a half-dozen at least, probably well over a dozen back in the day
Jake--won/split a half-dozen pieces maybe
plus a few others just to make the rest of us look even better

Mr. Nice Guy Games is going to be the dealer present; this IS NOT their event... it is mine, everything is coming out of my pocket and I am the one working to arrange everything....

All are perfectly welcome

I wish I could get Yangtime on my team, but he happens to be on Meandeck. Kind of makes me a sad panda.

What was Dan's favorite archetype? I only ask because I want to do an alteration to be given away as a door prize.

This is no way of taking prize support away from the TO it is just my way of honoring a fellow vintage gamer.

But these are a great way to get ready for Gencon.  You can even get a real idea of what the meta will be like.  Seems counter-intuitive to me.

Maybe you should start using playmats, Jimmy!  What is it that you don't like about them?  Is it the way they keep your sleeves from getting dirty on nasty comic-book store tables, or the way they distract your opponent as he's trying to concentrate on his cards?  Does this playmat offend you because it shows n00bs that you're an accomplished Vintage tournament player that should be feared?  Playmats are easy to roll up so carrying them around isn't even awkward.  Playmats seem like the nutz to me!

I designed the logo!  Glad to see you guys like it =)
