Outside of Nationals, this is THE BIGGEST tournament of the year.  I'm glad to see that you're putting it back on again.  Keep up the good work :)

I should be there. Unfortunately, I still haven't made a decent T2 deck since Disciples. And my Golgotha combo idea was neutered.

Looks like it will be an extravaganza this year. The  "Georgia Boys" already expressed an intrest in coming. And the Guardian should be able to play this year. Its going to be hard to retain your title this year Gabe.

Don't know for sure yet, but Tyler and Eric are checking in to it.

The Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP) Airport is about 15-20 miles from the tournament location, and there should be people from the area available to give you a ride from the airport to the tournament.

Can't wait! Any chance we can get T2 Sealed going this year, instead of/in addition to T2 Booster?

Also, to adotson: The Minneapolis/St. Paul (MSP) Airport is about 15-20 miles from the tournament location, and there should be people from the area available to give you a ride from the airport to the tournament.
Press 1 for more options.

I vote for type 2 sealed deck. 2 of the same starter decks with six packs.

Booster draft took awhile to draft and don't know if type 2 teams would work very well, it might take all night to win one game.

I really enjoyed the T2 booster draft.  Had we not started at midnight it would have been much more worth while.

Looks like it will be an extravaganza this year. The  "Georgia Boys" already expressed an intrest in coming. And the Guardian should be able to play this year. Its going to be hard to retain your title this year Gabe.

I don't think anyone is lucky enough to win an event like this three years in a row. :)  I plan to have lots of fun and fellowship.  I also always learn a lot about T2 every time to play the MN crowd or the guys from GA so I'll look forward to that too!

You may count on my being there and probably Britta for half of the first half and after that and probably overnight for us both on Friday. My vote=T2 sealed.

I hope this means that we get to have two sets of Doms.

I would vote for this also, but use one FoOF -or- RoA tin in place of the packs.

We would also need to come up with a fixed handful of evil cards that would be distributed along with the starter decks, because Good =/= Evil in the starters.

I agree. The drafting part of booster was fun, but by the time we were done most people were only interested in playing one game and then calling it a night. I also have the same concerns as Wild Bill about a T2-TEAMS event. If there are four players who would like to get together and play test to see how long such a game might last, that would be interesting.

I think T2 Teams could work, but there would need to be some rule modifications from both regular Teams and regular T2 in order for it to finish in a reasonable amount of time.

so far the cheapest ive found is 208.00 roundtrip from ATL to MSP via AirTran.
This is the way Lackey gave it to me. All hail the power of Lackey!

Yeah thats about what I have seen. Just wasn't sure if the prices will drop or rise. I know tyler bought his ticket to natz last year right before the price dropped if I remember correctly. I can take a greyhound for free, but that only takes 25 hours.

You better attend. I always pair you up with a tough out of state player in the first round and you come thru with the win. Your sort of our type 2 RLK except your not random and your not a little kid.
