Shuffle and Cut Games - shuffleandcut.com
Suite 305, 2121 East Lambert Road, La Habra - (562) 694-9500

EDIT: 1pm not 12, STORE OPENS AT NOON.

Here's the deal.  I'll be there, others from so cal will be there, and we'll be looking to play some vintage.  Try and arrive before 1pm, and IF we have enough people interested in a tournament, we'll run one with 15 proxies allowed @ 1pm.  I expect that there will be enough (8 or more) to run a tournament, but I don't want to make any promises on such short notice.  

Again, that's 12pm **1pm**, at the address above, for a tournament if 8 or more show up, or just some casual battling if less than 8.

If the number of players is such that I can put up an Ancestral Recall and lose less than $50 or so (yes, I'm willing to lose money on it if that makes the tourney better for everyone), I will put up a Recall for 1st.  If players prefer (or not enough show) to just do store credit for the winner(s), we can do that.

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this forum is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

I'm definitely going and will put up an additional $30 to the pot towards guaranteeing we play for a recall.

I have a harder time committing to a tournament 45 minutes away than I do one that is 6 hours.

Had a pretty good turn out for only 2 days notice.  11 people showed up to play Vintage in So Cal.  (4 of them playing from the summer collection of "Decks by Sperling")

Top four was Sperling, Rob, Chris and Matteo.
Matt beat Matteo, and I have no idea what happened in the other match and then finals.

I believe steak was eaten.

Chris (Oath) beat Rob (Grow/Fish) in semis.

Sperling (really nice guy, playing tezz) beat Chris (Oath) in finals. 

The field was 1 dredge, 1 hermit druid, 1 oath, 1 5cstax, 1 MUD, 2 BobTezz, 1 BoblessTezz, 1 Ad Nauseum, 1Grow, 1NobleFish

Pretty diverse field for an 11 man.  I got the bye round 1, then lost to MUD, then beat 5xStax, then Beat Fish.  Top 4 I beat MUD, then Oath.  I was the Bobless Tezz.

I had a great time at this tournament, despite starting off 0-2 and then conceding to friends rounds three and four. It was nice to play Vintage again after having played nothing but Legacy and Cube for the past eight or so months. I had forgotten just how incredibly broken this format is. Thanks to both Matt Sperling and Shuffle & Cut for hosting this tournament. Looking forward to the next one.

Good job Matt.  Were you running traditional tezzeret? Or something with trygons?

A more traditional 2x Tezzeret with no creatures other than inkwell.
