25/25/25 rule:
Vintage 25-proxy unsanctioned tournament
$0.25 for each proxy after 25
$25 CASH entry

All proxies must follow these guidelines:

There are two types of acceptable proxies. The first and most basic is taking a basic land card and writing the details of the card on it. The second method is to take a card that shares some of the characteristics with the card that is being proxied and erase any characteristics that do not match, replacing them with the correct characteristics.

All proxies must have the following text neatly printed, using a extra fine point sharpie. Ball point pens may not be used:
• The full name of the card (no abbreviations or nicknames)
• Correct casting cost of the card including all colored mana symbols
• All relevant/game effecting text

When choosing what card to use as the base for an erased proxy players must follow these rules:
• The mana cost of the base spell must be the same as the card being proxied.
• The type of the card being proxied must be the same as the base card.
• The P/T of a creature being proxied must be the same as the base creature P/T
• When proxying a creature it may be difficult to find a creature where all characteristics match. In this case, mana cost is the most important, followed by the P/T, followed by the subtype. Any characteristics that do not match must be erased and corrected.
• The art box, card name, and text box must be totally erased. White out may not be used for this as it affects the stiffness of the card and may mark it.
• When adding text to the card do not use a ball point pen. A extra fine point sharpie is the best thing to use. A ball point pen can cause indentations on the card marking it.
• For clarity reasons, the use of cards with the new card frame is strongly encouraged

Ugh, I'm busy out of town all of that weekend!  I hope people make it out to this; these events are always amazing.  Great store, great people, great competition.

[M.Solymossy]

Short notice, but I'll see what I can do.

[Isaac85]

It's not really short since they have one every third Sunday of the month but I'm more than likely not going to make it to this one. I know I haven't been out to Chicago in a while but I'm shooting for November to return to the vintage scene.

I wasn't there last time....

[MirariKnight]

Will be glad to represent the "rando commandos" from StL again at this one.

[M.Solymossy]

Will be glad to represent the 0-2 bracket.

I fixed that for you.

[M.Solymossy]

This thing is coming up.

[Tha Gunslinga]

I should be able to make this one.

[M.Solymossy]

I'm playing a deck with one 6/6 and five 7/7's, with another 6/6 in the sideboard.   Be prepaired.

[MEATROCKET]

Nobody can be prepared for five Gargantuan Gorillas

[vroman]

Im pretty sure he means all the Elder Dragons, noob

[vassago]

Nobody can be prepared for five Gargantuan Gorillas

I am pretty sure Mike is talking about Taniwha, Thorn Elemental, Changeling Titan, Iona, and Verdant Force.  Geez guys don't you know your 7/7's?  I am pretty sure the 6/6 is Bloodfire Colossus. 

[M.Solymossy]

All I have to say is, I'm ready...


Here's a sneak peak:

[M.Solymossy]

This just in! 


I can't beat turn 1 Jet, Sapphire, Orchard, Oath, Spell Pierce my Spell Pierce, and then Force of Will my Tinker.

Goddamned nuts draws in game 3.

 Oh well.   

Vroman split with Judaskilled.   I wish I could play the GR Giant Stable Stag deck in top 4.

[Tha Gunslinga]

I got blown out by Great Sable Stags.  It was epic.

[MirariKnight]

 I wish I could play the GR Giant Stable Stag deck in top 4.

I wish I could have your Fact or Fiction pile.

[M.Solymossy]

To clarify; I am much less bitter about the oath thong than a seem.


And that fact pile was in-fucking-sane!
desire/will/tinker/drain/top.   It was unreal. 

Btw: expect decklists sometime tomorrow.  Iam on my ipod right now so give me some time.

[vroman]

we'll be back in november
