Vintage Players of the Northeast Each year the best Vintage players in the world travel to Indianapolis, Indiana, to compete in the largest Vintage tournament in the United States. If you haven't heard of this event(read as: live under a rock) it's called Vintage Worlds. Vintage Worlds is held at Gencon, the best 4 days of gaming.  Full of Win Games in Clarks Summit, PA will be holding their third Vintage tournament. For myself and many others, this will mark the start of preparations for the pilgrimage to Indianapolis. This long-anticipated event only happens once a year, and if you've never gone, you're missing out....and I want to help you get there. Full of Win Games has contacted Gencon, and together, we've decided to sweeten the prize pool a bit... Format: Vintage Date: Saturday, April 21, 2012 Time: 12:00 (Registration @ 11:00 AM) Entry Fee: $25 Swiss Rounds to Top 8 @ 50 min rounds 10 proxies allowed for free. You can purchase up to five more proxies at $1 each. Decklists will be required (and published). The Prizes: (guaranteed) Prizes: 1st Place- 1 4-day Pass to GENCON1 Unlimited Time Walk 1 Custom Chalice of the Void Playmat (Art chosen by our previous winner, Joe Canada) 2nd Place- 1 4-day Pass to GENCON$100 Credit 3rd & 4th- $50 Case Credit 5th - 8th- $25 Case Credit ***There will be a prize of a From the Vault Legends for the highest placing person with NO PROXIES.Location: Full of Win Games 320 S. State Street Clarks Summit, Pa 18411 We are 1 hour from Bloomsburg, 2 hours from Blue Bell, 3 hours from Selden. I hope some of the regulars can make it out. We will be submitting the results to the New Vintage Points system developed by Prospero. If anyone has any questions or needs directions let me know. We also have plenty of Off-Street Parking behind the building you are allowed to park @ bunnels hardware as well. We are directly down the stairs after walking through the front door.

I'd imagine you could get a refund, Tom, but if someone takes this down that has no interest in going to Gencon (or already has a badge) we'll buy the badge back no problem

Vintage on Tony Danza's birthday? I guess I'll have to show all of you who's the boss by winning this thing.

Back to back to back weekends of Vintage would be really tough, but I'm considering making the trip for this. I'd be more likely to make it if I wasn't driving.

I'll try and rally some C-Town troops for this one. My only concern is the night before. On 4/20 every underground lyricists in the greater Cleveland area meet for the annual Blazing of the Mic contest. Thing is, Yangtime has to defend his title. If he wins there will be no telling how much Hennessy & Blunts will be consumed.

While I'm normally game for traveling to PA for MTG, I'm unable to attend this particular tournament. This may or may not have anything to do with the tournament's proximity to April 20th.

Whats Gencon? Is that where you can win games with no permanents and no cards in hand while staring down a 4/4 emrakul?

Barring any unforeseen problems with my car, I should be good to drive to this. We'll probably be leaving from AU Blue Bell at about 8:30 am. I'm pretty sure I have Allen and Josh signed up already, so I can fit up to two more. Let me know if you're interested in tagging along.

The store's always a little hard for new people to find, since our front sign went for a walk. If anyone has trouble finding the place, my cell is 570-780-8468

Meant to ask who won the No-Proxy prize? I think me and Joe Brown were the only two in the top 8, did he win vs. Justin?
