A lot of snow that day, delayed start time by an hour and there were ~120ish players, below break even, but Jens the organiser seemed positive that it wasn't bad for a first go, and his Legacy event the day before was fairly well attended (but ran pretty late).

MY performance was dismal; I went with basically the same deck I played at UK Vintage Nationals (basically a side to GP Brighton this summer) where I accidentally knocked myself out of top 8 in the penultimate round - it's a GroAtog evolution built by Ultima, basically Bob and Goyf plus cheap stuff.  Good vs random aggro (there were some extra prizes for unpowered, so I expected some showing) and good vs Tezz, fairly bad vs Stax and Ichorid.  So after a first round nail biter against Tezz that I won, I get Stax round 2, Ichorid round 3.  Stax was close (I had G1 on board except I didn't have a counter and he ripped Twister with a lot of mana, I got G2, but G3 he locked me up much faster than I was likely to follow), Ichorid wasn't, although I had a decent level of hate, I thought.  Played on anyway since it was sanctioned and I needed to claw some points back...that didn't work out and I lost on the bottom table vs a guy who clearly hadn't played in ages and had no cards in his deck newer than Trinket Mage.  I'm quite entertained that him resolving Arcanis(!) all 3 games had a bit of an effect...

I didn't stick around for Top 8, hopefully someone will report.
