Date: Saturday, January 24th, 2015
Location: Top Deck Games!
Address: 55 Haddon Ave, Haddon Township, NJ 08108

Play Begins: 12:00 PM

We all know that many Magic players have some time management issues.  To reward a random player who shows up early, at every Vintage event I run, if you register before 11:30, you will be entered into a drawing for a free booster pack!  Who doesn't like free stuff?!  Also, as always, we do allow late entries, but with a Round 1 loss.

Prizes!
1st: $400 Store Credit
2nd: $200 Store Credit
3rd: $100 Store Credit
4th: $100 Store Credit
5th-8th: $50 Store Credit

In my continued quest to try and remember how to play this game, I might make a long overdue return to TDG.

Anyone interested in playing some 93/94 Magic games in-between rounds?

Should I play rituals and hate myself or dredge and have others hate me in my place?

Why choose? Lotus + Ritual + Ritual + Bargain seems pretty good in Dredge.

Paper Vintage is something incredibly awesome. I hope to see you there.

Nothing wrong with a healthy amount of self-hatred  Very Happy

I usually hate myself when I play dredge and my opponents don't usually seem upset.

*IF* there are changes to the B&R this weekend, will they be implemented for this event? [forgive me and my ignorance when it comes to B&R changes in paper!]

Tonight/tomorrow morning's snow storm is really making me sad. I'm crossing my fingers that the roads are decent, but I don't feel like driving 1.5-2 hours in the snow/freezing rain. Sad

Looks like I'll have to wait another month to make a TDG event. I hope the weather doesn't deter too many from coming.

You can't see it right now, but a solitary tear is currently making its way slowly down my cheek.

Looks like the snow isn't as bad as it could have been here in Central NJ. Anyone else braving the elements to drive in to play today?

Had a ton of fun today! Thanks for running the event. I plan (hope?) to make as many of these as I can.

Who won

There was a Top 4 split. Hopefully we'll get decklists for the event soon. I was on URg Delver and I think there was a Dredge and a Monastery Mentor deck also in the Top 4. Not sure what the 4th person was playing.
