I take it no proxies for vintage since this is Sanctioned. I will have to toss something together then. When are you guys going to do another proxy event?

Sadly, not enough people showed up.

Paul and I were there as the only Vintage players. We couldn't get the other six required for Sanctioned Vintage.

On the bright side, I split the ZZZ Draft with nearly-mono-white.
