There are a number of restaurants on the same road within a couple of minutes, delivery to the store and even one within walking distance. There will be menus at the store and I will try to arrange for a large delivery if there is enough interest. See you all tomorow!

I am the fail, and cannot make this awesome tournament.  Had some stuff come up.  I hope to see everyone Sep 10-12 at Waterbury!

So, 5 hours before we planned on leaving, my ride canceled, and I don't think I can drive 2 hours alone. 


Anyone leaving from the RI/MA area and have an empty seat?  I really want to play magikzzz

This tournament is in my backyard, in a town that Nick (billtheduck) and I put on the Vintage map.  Nobody seemed to want me to play on a team, or even mentioned me in any of the multiple threads on this tournament

You can all kindly go F yourselves

God damn, really sad I missed this one.

Merchant Scroll can be seen as restricted in a way because should you have 2 in a hand, only one is really useful (that is, only one can get Ancestral)."

Top 8 was 2x mud 1x 5c stax 1 dredge, noble fish oath and my own version of tezz.  Something may be wrong if i'm the only drain deck in top 8

Something may also be wrong if the top 8 has only 7 people  Confused  But still, thanks for the update.  I hope someone is going to collect the full info on the field in a TO report, this is a large event for Vintage.  Congrats to everyone for making it a success!  Trust me, one of these done in NY / northern NJ would have MASSIVE attendance due to its more central location.

NOOOOO!!! ALL THE GLACKINS SAID DARK TIMES WAS ACTUALLY GOOD!!!

Wait, I've been saying that too.  Nice job, Maximum Brown.  PS Your name should be Maximum Black instead, PPS also a good porn name.

Who was the actual winner winner?

This is clearly false, looking at his progeny.

That guy is on a serious freaking run if its who I think... same guy that top 4'd at Bloomsburg, and made finals at Blue Bell by smashing me and Brad Granberry?

Not that, you know, Shop players repeatedly do well in multiple events, right Minimum Brown AKA Maximum Black?

And the Shop defense rests.

I watched his games against my friend Travis playing noble fish(not laplante) and he would have lost them on the draw.  The match was a literal die roll.

I lost a Legacy game today I would have won had I won the die roll. This is supposed to prove.... ?????? what exactly?  That MTG isn't chess and going first is an advantage even with the play/draw mechanic in place?

So I'm like, " I know that we're sending a rather dangerous contingent of NE / Central PA ringers "

So then DA is all, "Just as well, this saves you the embarrassment that would have accompanied being mowed down along with your fellow PA players."

Yet at the end of the day, the man from PA holds all the chips.  Just wait til you have one of these that ISN'T SIX HOURS FROM US.

Congrats to Joe Brown on another solid finish and NEPA represent, with Joe Pace knocking down the side event. myself and Matt Rine had decent main event and side event finishes as well.  All in all it was well worth the trip and I can't wait for another one.

As for the die roll factor, Joe said he only won the die roll against fish in the top 4. He said other than that he lost every single roll all day and still came out on top.
