N.Y.S.E. XVI - 7/30 Unlimited Ancestral Recall & Time Walk Tournament

Counting is difficult!

The last N.Y.S.E. was announced as N.Y.S.E. XVI. After doing some very difficult counting that involved using multiple hands and a foot, I came to the conclusion that it was actually N.Y.S.E. XV. Which means that we get to do this all over again!

July 25th, 2009 was the date of the very first N.Y.S.E. event. In the two years that have come and gone we’ve seen everything from (multiple) tanker fires on the Long Island Expressway to 90 man events. The last two years have been great. Here’s hoping that the next two years are just as good…

When:

Saturday, July 30th, 2011
Registration will begin at 11:00 AM
First round will begin promptly at 12:00 PM

$30, 15 proxy non-sanctioned Vintage tournament. Deck registration sheets will be in use. First place prize and second place prize are guaranteed. All additional prizes are guaranteed at 44 entrants.

As always, prizes will be scaled up with attendance.

Eight man, single elimination, side events will be available throughout the day. Signups for the first event will begin after round four of the main event. Entry fee is $10, with the prize breakdown being $60 dealer credit to 1st, $20 dealer credit to 2nd.

This event is an awesome opportunity. Going to GenCon? Then here's your last shot to get some testing in before the big event. Going to the third Grudge Match? That's only two weeks off from N.Y.S.E. XVI - again, it's the perfect time to get some testing in.

Not to mention; when's the last time that you saw two pieces of blue power given out at an event?

I’m looking forward to seeing you all on the 30th for another day of Vintage on Long Island!
