Real men pregame, getting my diddy up on (TGI) Friday night, no pun intended...so who are the real men pregaming???
I do not need another tournament so soon that Jimmy is drunk for the whole one. The PTQ was... interesting enough... Also, is anyone able to pick someone up from 16th st and 1st ave. in manhattan? my car is full. |

that's the collective stink of 50+ mtg players converging on Selden. I have 67 people who have confirmed that they were going, along with another 15 maybes. This isn't counting the people that I've forgotten. I expect more than 50 players. |

It's after 4pm and the snow was predicted to start at 9am and accumulate by now. There is nothing new on the ground, none of it has stuck. Let me repeat: there is zero accumulation as of right now.
The roads are safe, and I promise that they'll be fine coming to the event tomorrow.
I've taken care of the last few details, and we're all set. This event is going to be a blast, and I hope that I get to see you all tomorrow!
EDIT: It is now after 9pm and there is no snow on the ground in Oceanside, New York. Talk about a blunder. If there is anything on Long Island right now, it's super minimal and will certainly be cleared up by the time everyone is leaving tomorrow morning.
They're saying that there is a chance of snow tomorrow night, though it should be clear tomorrow morning. Once again, it's nothing serious, and certainly nothing like what we had a couple of weeks ago.
Weather isn't an issue. I hope that this doesn't deter people from making the trip.

sounds like they are trying to close 84, the snow is pretty bad up here I guess.
I'll check again at 8am, if it's relatively clear I'll be there.

Also, is anyone able to pick someone up from 16th st and 1st ave. in manhattan? my car is full. my favorite part was 1a. Having judges watching me because I was so drunk and being mean, loud and a gerneral asshole to my opponents. 1b. having the judge stop me when I wanted to interupt the top 8 draft and fight a player |

Paul Mastriano is locked into Top 8 with the Tyrant Oath deck from my Gush book. I have no idea what else is in the top8. Congrats to the people who had Paul on their bingo board.
EDIT: Paul Mastriano is now in Top 4. Go Paul!
