There is going to be an open local on March 24th at 701 Black Rock Rd. Hanover Pa
(not too far from you Maryland players)
We will be starting at 9:00

As its the first tournament at this location I can only guess at turn out so please let me know here if you'll be coming

We will be playing the basics:
Booster (New Tins! And TXP) [$20.00]
T1-2P
T2-2P

We will be playing both 2P events at the same time, booster is being decided.

I am attempting to make plans to be there as well.  If I'm in a decent mood I might bring Drrek along too.

...eh...he can walk.

He would like that far too much, so out of the question.  Now...maybe if there was freezing rain that day...hmm....

On a side note, any Maryland people want to ride up with Blake and I that day?  I live in Cockeysville just off 83, making it a good stopping place.  Just let me know.  I could fit at least two more people comfortably in my car.

I now have room for one comfortably-seated person and one contortionist (or one very small person...or a very small contortionist) if any Maryland people want to ride with me from the Cockeysville area.

By my count at this moment we should have a turn out of at least 12 players so this will be a fairly good sized local.

I revived the materials in the mail today (finally) so just thought I'd point out that this is official and will be happening on the 24th as scheduled.

Just an update on seating, I currently have 2 people who want to ride with me, and 3 people who MAY ride with me.  If you want a spot from Cockeysville/Hunt Valley to and from, then send me a message ASAP, please so I can try to figure it out.

Also, if you're one of the 'maybe's, please let me know for sure soon :)

I've been thinking about it, and am leaning heavily toward implementing the rule changes (contacting the participants won't be an issue) but I thought I'd see how you guys feel about it?

Let me know and I'll post the final decision tonight. Thanks...

As others have pointed out in my conversations with them, if these are the new rules, we should get used to them quickly.  A Local would be a good time.

However, I am very much opposed to rule #3 (optional dom-cap).  Would like my deck to be legal without asking :)

There's no way I will impose #3 which I hate as well,

It will simply be a Dom for each soul if we do the new rules.

Alright, I have 2 people confirmed riding with me from Cockeysville/Hunt Valley and one probable.  If you want a ride, now's the time to make sure your spot is secured.

Are T1 and T22P running against each other or at separate times?

Good question, just noticed Multi is not listed.  If that is the case, I'd also like to know if they are being run against each other to prepare :)

With all due respect, that's a bad idea. Not everyone that has a t2 deck has a t1 and vice versa. They should be against each other or we are going to be there all day...we will need to leave Hanover no later than 4:30 to make it back at a decent hour...

While I understand this sentiment, and we need to work with everyone's schedule, I agree with Shawn that a lot of times there is no time for fellowship and just being together at these tournaments with the hectic pace.  If some people do not play the other category (I know I would cross over for one), they can spend time in discussion and fellowship.

However, if some people have time constraints, that may have to be addressed.

Jerome,
I'm trying to come.  I'm not sure though only because my wife has a baby u/s scheduled that day around 11am.  We're trying to change it so I can come.  If I do come there will be two other players with me.  I'll keep you posted.  If we come all three of us will prolly do T1 and the booster draft.

We don't have Type 2 decks yet.  We're still trying to master type 1 and all the rules.  Since I found the REG online I realized how much I have to learn.  But you guys have been amazing thus far with giving pointers as I play you.  Thanks again so much!

2-3 hours is quite a bit for fellowship time, which is what we would have running Type 1 and then Type 2 and then Booster. If the host wants to use this schedule (and we are the only ones constrained for time) then we should do Booster first...
