What if a playtester wins ( a problem we shouldn't have imo) can this be passed on to the highest placing non playtester?

I covered that in the Q & A.
Have you visited the Land of Redemption today?

I find myself wondering what direction these players might go.

Would they reprint an old card of a bible character they really like?
Would they find a person in the bible that they share a name with and do something with that?
Would they go for a reprint of one of the OT Prophets who need a reboot? (Elijah, Elisha, Jonah?)
Will they want to create a character that covers a weakness in their favorite defense?

There are so many directions this can go. 

If I won both(never gonna happen) I would be leaning towards a Elijah, Elisha reprints.

This would be my card

Noah
9/5 (lived 950 years) Blue/Green Brigade (patriarch/prophet)
Negate protect abilities. (because there was no protection from The Flood other than The Ark)
Search deck for A New Beginning and you may play it. (self explanitory, but allows you to play ANB from hand if it's not currently in your deck).

Cheers m8s.

I agree! Noah, Abraham, and Adam I would love to see get a reprint! Me and Mitch were talking about how maybe a Noah's Ark Fortress could be cool too that could offer protection, but only last maybe 4 turns or something for 40 days and nights of the flood. Super excited for all of the upcoming tournaments all the way to Nationals along with the newest upcoming release on top of the other fun new promos!! :) Thank you!!

It would be cool if the two winners worked together to make some type of combo to a something that needs a boost.

Here's the card I'd make:

Que
3/6 Orange Brigade Evil Character. Demon.
Evil Enhancements with Mist in the title cannot be negated. If captured, Que becomes an angel.

Agreed.  My card, to combo with Westy's...

ANB will be blue if we ever reprint it. Apart from that you're spot on. ;)

I'm glad that there is less than zero percent chance that both you and Westy will both take 1st place. ::)

That's pretty good Sauce, but I'd make the following change. I think this change would really improve the game.

Quick question, never been to Nationals but my kids play in the Creation Fest Tournaments every year. Just curious on how much average cost for one person is going to be if we get to come and join in the fun? And how many games to get play in a day?
Thank you,

Depending on which categories a person plays, the most a person would pay is 27.50 total for all three days of play. You could still play all three days for as low as 20.00, if you chose the cheaper categories each day. The other expenses all depend on your preferences, how you travel, where you stay, what you eat, etc. There is free lodging at the church, or there are hotel options as mentioned earlier in the thread. So min cost per person is $20 if you play everyday, but the rest is pretty customizable to your budget and preferences.

The number of games depends also on the categories you play, but if you pick the three most popular categories each day, then there will be 6-7 games per day.
Press 1 for more options.

I will also be supplying lunch all 3 days.  Two days the meal will be right around $5 and the other day will have a meal around that or a little cheaper, if you want less food.  :P  (It will be pizza by the slice to not be so cryptic.)

A few things:

Nats in Knoxville again? Hmm...will have to talk to the wife.

The liability release on Bany's site has the dates from the first tourney in 2012. That probably needs to be changed to make it legal.

I've never thought about creating a Cube for Redemption, but that's something I could do with my cards.

I haven't touched my cards in a looooooong time, so I'll probably be selling them. I definitely need to actually catalog them. Bany's spreadsheet used to be the best to organize cards, is there an updated version somewhere or a different one that has been created?

I'm so there. Anyone want to play teams?
I am not talking about T2 unless I am explicitly talking about T2. Also Mayhem is fine now somehow!
