So what you guys are saying is that you would have a womens pack over apostles and patriarchs?

Also womens pack only comes with 8 cards.
This is the way Lackey gave it to me. All hail the power of Lackey!

Yes.

The only cards worth having in Apostles usually crop up in TxP/Di anyway.
The Patriarchs is a small concession to make to have both Womens and the two 'box' style expansions.

I enjoy the last option. I was a little worried about playing with tins because of the supernew tins which kick butt.

I have 30 Patriarchs packs and 15 Angel Wars packs. I would be willing to donate* either or both sets to upgrade Booster Draft if the host would be alright with that.

Are there any other players who would be willing to donate packs to make up any shortfall?

P.S. Although I am not planning on playing Booster I voted in the poll for my 9 yo son, who is planning on playing.  I hope that was alright.

*By donate I mean give for free, although I may ask to have the event renamed to the 2012 Booster Draft sponsored by EmJayBee83.**

**Not really.***

***Not really for the renaming part. I would be happy to donate the packs.

I have 3 Kings, 2 Priests, and $12 Redemption Cash. If you'd let me trade those in for other packs, I'd totally donate them.

Out of curiosity, since it looks like we'll be playing without tins, what will the open order be? Personally, I like the prospect of starting with Di/TxP and moving backwards, to give decks a little more focus.

Even if you could get 9 more people to vote for that tin option, it probably still would not "win" the poll so to speak, because there are still a lot of votes for a different non-tin option, and most who voted for that option would probably prefer the option that is currently winning over a tin option.

I will bring the Patriarchs.  Between RDT, the Wraith and myself we are only going to be about 15 short (guesstimate of 60 players in Booster). Having faith that those can be found.

I have ~100 wrappers that I can turn in for Pats to donate, as well as a few Apostles packs that I would be willing to trade in for Pats as needed.

Yeah, I'm bringing 200+ wrappers now. We should definitely have enough.
