hey everyone in Texas I'm gonna be hosting a tourney after nats, and I was just wondering what the best date for everyone was.
also I would like to know in advance how many people are going to be coming because I need to rent a part of my church and there are population constrictions but the bigger the room the bigger the price. Please post below if you are coming and what date(s) are best for you. Thanks!

The Life Church is available for free. I would be glad to help out. I am going to be starting up tournaments this 2010-11 year. My mom recently went home to be with the Lord. My sister-in-law preceded her a few months before. Both had diseases that ravaged their bodies and minds during the past few years. Both are dancing in the streets of heaven. Praise God!
I will be submitting applications for both local and district tournaments in the near future. I am targeting middle to late September and early October. Stay tuned.
-
I'm am both saddened to hear about your loss of your family members, and happy to hear about where they are now. I am also happy to hear that after a hiatus, that TX is returning to the Redemption map :)
-
I'm free whenever as far as I know. I just have know a week or two in advance so I can ask off for work.
Also, I'm gonna go ahead and throw my vote for Type-2 out there. ;)
-
I sent off an application to host a District Tournament at The Life Church on Saturday, September 18th. It will have a (:00 am check in with the morning session beginning at 9:30 am.
Morning Session:
Type 1-2 Player
Type 2-2 Player
Lunch Break (bring your own, dine-out, or chip in $2 for pizza)
Afternoon Session: approx 1:00 pm
Type 1-Multi
Type 2-Multi
Booster Draft for any interested to follow afternoon session.
Will include unlimited, prophets, kings, priests, angel wars, thesaurus, foof/roa pack and another pack undetermined at the moment.
Please let me know if you will be attending.
-
Attendees so far:
Ben Shad
C.J.
Marcus P.
Neeka
Jacob
Luz
Miguel
Terry
Chad Soderstrom
Tavion
Gio
Sadness (Stephen new to our group)
Xavier and Noel (brothers) and possibly Drake
Jon and his dad and possibly up to 3 friends
maybe Marcus Rutledge, Alicia and Isaac
-
Chad said he'd come.
-
We are anticipating adding several very new to the game players. If you have any G or H decks in great condition, I would like to purchase them for $2.50 a deck. That will enable me to help get these new players started.
Thanks and looking forward to seeing you all on the 18th of September.
-
Terry, I have at least 10,000 cards sitting in boxes that I would love to give to whoever is new and needs cards, or to whoever just simply wants more bulk to add to their collection to maybe make a Type-2 Deck eventually.
I'll bring however much I can fit in my car, and they're free to whoever wants 'em. There are definitely several G/H decks in there, it's finding all of the cards and putting it together that would be difficult.
-
That sounds fantasctic. I am sure the new players will appreciate your generosity. Thanks, Ben. See you in a couple of weeks. T am going to schedule another District Tournament on the 3rd Saturday in October. I will also try to squeeze in a local before that.
-
Awesome. If you'd like, you could schedule the Districts this season and then in-between Districts I'll happily host the Locals.
-
I hope that becomes a reality. My main problem is having a weekend day open to be at the church. If you could find a place, possibly a Christian bookstore's back room or someone's home, that would be great if I can't be there. The church will be available if I can be there. So I'll try to let you know dates I might be able to offer the church.
-
I'm also gonna try to host some so I can be entered in the "win every card ever made" lottery
Is highland park too far away for anyone? Because that's where my church is and the only place I can think of at the moment....
Also since there's already a tourney for the 18th I'm not gonna do the 25th. How is October 16th? It's not permanent, just throwing the date out there...and it'll be local
-
I am scheduling another district for that day, Jon. Highland Park is closer for the South Dallas guys and girls. They number about 8 players. Not too far for me or most of the other regulars.
This will shape up to be the best year ever for Redemption in Texas.
-
To be honest I would go to a tournament every weekend if there was one. :P
-
Yes! You know how happy I am with Texas' resurrection!
Praise God!
-
To be honest I would go to a tournament every weekend if there was one. :P
so would I! Do you know if you are gonna host one, Ben?
-
I would love to host several, my only problem is finding a place to host them (since Terry isn't always able to be at the church). So as soon as I can find a place, I'll start sending in the applications.
-
Looking to contact Buddy Dunn and Marcus Parker. If you know how to reach them, please let me know. Thank you.
-
The only contact information I have for them would be here on the boards.
-
Neeka and I should be able to come.
-
see update on attendees for District Tournament 9/18
I am going to schedule another District on 10/16 at the Life Church.
-
Sent in the application for the October district tournament.
-
The first Saturday in October just opened up for me, too. I plan to host a local, unless Ben wants to host it. I will offer the type 1 and type 2 events.
So, mark your calendars. September 18th District
First Saturday in October Local
Third Saturday in October District
-
Read this thread, Where are you guys located at? And how does someone play as I never have before. PM me any info you can.
Thanks, Sadness
-
It makes me sad to see your nametag thing be Sadness. may i ask why? i certainly hope that is not your name
-
No that is not my name. I am named after a NT martyr. Sadness was the mood I was in that day,but you haf to admit,it is easy to remember.
Some of the names here tell me folks like halo.
-
Hi. My name is Terry and I host most of the tournaments in the southcentral region. We play at the Life Church in Dallas. I sent you a personal message with more info. Hope to see you Sept 18th.
-
The first Saturday in October just opened up for me, too. I plan to host a local, unless Ben wants to host it. I will offer the type 1 and type 2 events.
So, mark your calendars. September 18th District
First Saturday in October Local
Third Saturday in October District
It would be nice if you could host this one, then I will do my best to get the rest. The timing is great though, being that the last saturday in September I am taking the ACT then the second saturday in October I take the SAT.
-
Cool. I am faxing the local ap today.
-
I spoke to Rob this morning. He will be posting the 9/18 District and the 10/2 Local tournaments soon. I have already followed up with a District tournament 10/16.
Looking forward to a great year.
Added 2 more players to the ones indicating that they would be at the 9/18 tournament.
-
guys,
Is Life Church located at 13701 Hillcrest Road or is the address different?
Thanks, Stephen
-
You found us. Fantastic.
-
Yup that's it. Its right next to a big Greek church I believe.
-
Add Stephen to list of attendees.
-
I am sorry to say that none of the 24 packs of Disiples I bought will be available. I opened a pack, then another, and another....well you know how that goes. I do have the Chaldeons Promo, though.
I will have Disciples packs at the local on 10/2 tournament.
See you in 4 days.
-
Question? Yes, another one. Don't y'all just love me :angel:
At these tournaments-does every participant get a promo or just the winners? And no, I am not trying to sound greedy.
In Christ,
Sadness
-
Everyone attending and registered to play in at least 1 event receives a promo. For this District Tournament, I was fortunate enough to be able to get Chaldeans. A player winning an event also will receive another promo, foil card or rare/ultra-rare card of his/her choice from the selection offered.
If a player places 1st, 2nd or 3rd in an event, he/she will also receive packs of cards as their prize.
Ask as many questions as you like. We have 2 of the best sources of gameplaying information in Marcus Parker and Ben Shadrick in our play group. Both are planning to be at this Saturday's events.
-
In all fairness to him, Chad Soderstrom has won at Nationals (twice, even) whereas I have not.
Also, Sadness, I'm Ben Shadrick and if there is anything at all you are wanting to know, whether it be about strategies or gameplay, feel free to PM me at anytime.
I am crazy excited about this tournament, I have 6 or 7 decks I want to try and it's so hard to just pick one!
-
Boy do I stand corrected. Thank you, Ben. Chad Soderstrom, one of my favorite moments was being at Nationals when Chad beat SirNobody in the finals to win that year's Type 1 2 Player Championship. And Chad will be joining us on Saturday (playing Type 2 I hope).
-
:( I probably can't come cause i just got grounded for an outrageous reason. I really hope to come, and I was getting so excited, but it may not happen. I'm so sorry but also so mad >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(
-
I am sorry to hear that. We will be playing again on October 2nd (a local). Be good! Hope to see you then.
-
oh my gosh that was the funnest time i've had in a long time. I have to go back to studying and homework, but at least I got that little break!!!!
now i am SO EXCITED FOR TWO WEEKS FROM NOW!!!
i think if we have one every two weeks this will be the best year ever
-
Sixteen players rang in a new season of Redemption at The Life Church in Dallas, Tx. We had first time players, seasoned veterens. past National champions and comeback stories.
Chad Soderstroms successful return to the Redemption scene helped to punctuate this district tournament with an exclamation point. After nearly 2 years away from the game, he overcame a shakey start in the Type 1-2 Player event with an impressive win in the type 1-Multi event with his dominating play. He also placed 3rd in Booster Draft, clearly putting himself back on the Redemption map of players to watch this year. John Jacob Martinez placed second and newcommer Chris Rutledge sqeezed past a crowded field to place third.
John Jacob Martinez once again played masterfully as he scored an impressive win over the 14 player field in the Type 1-2 Player event. Luz Mora took second place while Jonathan Myers shocked everyone, including himself as he captured the third spot.
Of course, we can't have a successful tournament without Ben Shadrick strutting his stuff. He place first in both the Type 2-Multi Player and Booster Draft events.
Marcus Parker surprised Ben By blowing him away in the Type 2-2 Player event.
Terry Markoff placed second in Booster Draft and 3rd in theType 2-Multi Player event.
Ben Shadrick donated several thousand cards to the playgroup. There were wide smiles on the faces of the members of our playgroup for several hours after their last event as they lingered to search through the boxes of cards Ben had brought with him. Thanks, Ben.
Next tournament, a local Oct. 2nd. All are invited.
-
Not so much as surprised, I assumed it wouldn't work.
-
what wouldnt work?
-
Welcome back Mr. Soderstrom!!! Ben, I knew they all come back home..... I'm pretty sure it was an emotional reunion of sorts for the seasoned players who have once more reunited with long lost rivals.
Terry, welcome back to hosting sir! Texas is back in the Map!!!
God bless all!
-
Its great to be back! :D I can't wait to familiarize myself with all the new cards and come up with a deck that will hopefully put me back into the group of feared players. Hopefully by next nationals I will have everything perfected and will be back with my game face on. ;) I can't wait to see all the people I haven't seen in my 2 year absence. I also want to thank Terry for being such a great tournament host, and a good friend to everyone in the Texas play group. Thank you for everything you've done for us over the years Terry. Don't think this means I'll go easy on ya though! ;)
-
Chad, it was great to see you again and to harrass you (in love) of course. Thanks for the kind words. I told everyone to take it easy on you for a few tournaments.
-
Haha, it just wouldn't be a tournament without harassing eachother like always. Its all in good fun. I'd be careful taking it easy on me, I might just surprise you. :P
-
were you the one who made my rip my plot ;D
that was the funnest game i've played since joining this game!
-
That was a great tournament man even though Chad messed my 1st place (5 in a row i think) streak in multiplayer! Like the wise Ricky Bobby quote "if u ain't first, you're last". Lol I'm playing I love the competition. My first booster draft was embarrassing tho. I might not make the next one tho.
-
Congratulations, again, Jacob on your Type 1-2 Player streak. I find it absolutely amazing that you prevent your opponents from winning Lost Souls when time after time it seems like they are saying, ", O.K. Stop that," knowing you can't and then you do! I appreciate the efforts your playgroup make to get to each tournament, your play styles, and character and integrity.
See you mid-October.
-
Chad, I never underestitmate you. I love your competitive spirit and value your friendship and look forward to beating you next time around with my Type 1 (no EC) multi-player deck.
-
Jon, I have a free Haaman's Plot for you next time I see you. You are the first player I've seen rip one of those babies, since my son would do it regularly several years ago.
-
Ben, you get free admission to the next 4 tournament events (and free pizza to the next 2 tournaments) of your choice. I appreciate what your presence has meant to our playgroup.
-
7 days until the next Texas tournament. It's a Local. I sent in the results earlier in the week to our last District Tournament, and I placed an order for Disciples packs. Now, just pray that I don't open just 1 pack......when I get them.
-
Thanks Terry you are the reason I'm still playing today. That Chad battle was epic, watching Jon rip a hamans plot cus he thought he had hamans gallows was hard to watch, Chad coming up on top in multiplayer with a deck he wasn't familiar with was nothing short of amazing, Ben giving away literally thousands of cards to the new generation was everything this game is all about, my beautiful girl Luz managed to get second a third time in a row (I created a monster!) Can't wait for the next.
-
Amen, Brother! Your creative ability to build decks for your friends has helped create such a wonderful and healthy competitive environment. We will miss you next weekend but that will give others 2 more chances to win, place or show. I am looking forward to your rivalry with Chad.
The saga continues October 16th.
-
Two more first time players will join us this weekend, Noah and Drake. We also hope to welcome Sadness to our playgroup.
-
Terry, I plan to be around for awhile! My life and the lives of my friends have been impacted by the tournaments you've been hosting for years. Also, if you would like to give me some dates your church is available I wouldn't mind hosting a few tournaments to relieve you from some of the burden. I am also talking with Ben about finding somewhere capable of holding tournaments. I love the new competition! I haven't come up with the deck I am going to be playing in T1 2p this year yet, but I'm diligently working on my next masterpiece! :P
-
Thanks, Chad.
Just keep your eyes on Him. He is the one who has been blessing you guys, and blessing us through you, too. I will let you and Ben know of some dates that the church will be available. I was thinking about sending an application for a District Tournament on November 6th and December 18th.
I also spoke to some fairly influential people in the Dallas area about doing some advertising for Redemption among a group of pastors and youth leaders. That could prove to be quite interesting.
See you on Saturday.
-
Thanks, Terry!
This Saturday, Chad and I will hopefully be bringing two of our friends to the tournament, and both of them know how to play.
-
Hey all. I'm hoping to come to the district on the 16th, but no promises.
-
That would be great. If you can, spread the word to anyone else that might like to join us. There will be at least 4 kids with very little to no game playing time.
-
good news, im gonna make it to the next one this saturday. the deck i made for luz is looking like it can really cause me (mainly me) and everybody some trouble so dnt focus too much on me cus she is definetly a beast. i also got a lampstand for trade, so ben hit me up!
-
Fantastic. Now I will work on a Type 2 deck. See you guys Saturday. Again, we may hit 20 players. Havent done that in years.
-
I am sorry to report that one of our church members mothers has passed away. Her service will be at the Life Church.
We will need to make sure we wrap things up by 2 pm. I will try to get everything going by 9:15 am and play 2 rounds of each type of gm. I want to thank you all in advance for your understanding.
We will have a full schedule will multiple rounds on the 16thth of October.
See you Saturday. I think we will have 17-20 players. Wow.
-
Great tournament. 13 players participated in our local.
It was great to see Aaron Burt and Jordan Drott retrurn to the Redemption scene. Each of them had successful comebacks. Jordan came in 1st in Type 1-Multi Player and 2nd in Type 1-2 Player, while Aaron finished 2nd and 3rd in those events.
Chad Soderstrom continued his successful return with a 1st place finish in Type 1-2 Player. Alas, multi-player seemed to confound the poor lad.
Ben Shadrick continued to dominate Type 2 scoring victories in both the 2 player and multi-player events. Newcomer Xavier Mendoza scored a victory in Closed Deck and his broth Noel placed 2nd. Noah Johnson a first time player took 3rd place honors. Marcus Rutledge placed 3rd in T1-multi-player
Marcus Parker took 2nd place in both of the Type 2 events while Terry Markoff finished 3rd in the T2-Multi-Player event.
We are looking for a record number of participants for the next district tournament in 2 weeks (10/16).
-
I agree great tournament. I talked to Ben,Chad,Aaron nd Jordan and they said they will play booster draft so I will too. I'm sure I can convince cj and Marcus to play it too so the next tournament will be better Im sure. this was the first time in my redemption career I didn't place in either category but I love the return of the veterans.
-
Well said. I hope Luz and Miguel will be able to make it to the tournament.
-
I am going to fax applications for 2 more District Tournaments tomorrow. They will be Saturday 11/20 and Saturday December 18.
Hope to see you all in 2 weeks for the Oct 16th District Tournament. I will be faxing a request for a local sometime between the beginning of November and Dec 19th. It will be at the Life Church on a Sunday with a start time at about 10:45 am. Type 1-2 Player will be offered.

sounds good. by the way what promo are we getting for the 16th of oct tournament?
-
Jonathan, Son of Joiada will be the next promo.
The Nov 20th and Dec 18th District Tournaments were faxed this morning.
-
Whew, the Life Church is going to need to replace its floors with all the foot traffic its getting.
Be advised guys(and girls),the closer we get to major holidays,the more than likely, folks will be paying less attention to their driving and more to the cellphones,shopping lists,etc. Also,police will be out in force. So,watch your driving as well as your speeding. We don't want people telling saint peter,"we were on our way to a redemption tournament when THAT happened!" Drive safe and looking forward to seeing you there.
God Bless you and keep you safe,
Sadness
-
*Glares at Chad about the above comment, while reminiscing about the incident taking place before last weekend's tournament...*
-
Hello,
How long do the sessions last? And does one haf to stay for it all? What incident are you talking about :police:
God Bless,
Sadness
-
The sessions are pretty much morning (2-player) and afternoon (multi-player), with a break around lunch time in between. You don't have to stay for both sessions if you don't want to.

October 16th District Tournament results:
Type 2-2 Player 1st: Ben Shadrick
2nd: Marcus Parker
Type 2-Multi-Player 1st: Ben Shadrick
2nd: Marcus Parker
3rd: Terry Markoff
Type 2 went according to plan with Ben winning both events rather easily.
It was an interesting Closed Deck event with 6 relitively new players.
1st place was won by Noel Mendoza while the crowded field had 3 players tying for 2nd place. Alisha Rutledge, Noah Johnson and Chris Rutledge.
The Type 1-2 Player event was won by Jordan Drott. Jacob Martinez finished second and C.J. Jackson nabbed the 3rd spot.
Type 1-Multi-Player event went Jacob Martinez who is establishing himself as a force to be reckoned with. C.J. Jackson grabbed second place while Jordan Drott placed third.
The Booster Draft event went to Terry Markoff. Ben Shadrick rallied to win the 3rd game to place second. Jordan Drott placed third.
!4 participants played from 9 am to 5 pm. I believe a good time was had by all.
Next event will be the November 20th district Tournasment at the Life Church.. Hope to see a record number of players there.
-
I want to give a special welcome to long time collector and first time player Stephen. Thanks for joining our playgroup. We hope to see you at the next tournament. I am glad we were able to help you find so many of the cards you have been searching for to complete your collection. Thanks for driving all the way from Weatherford.
I also want to congratulate Jordan Drott for his first tournament victory since coming back to the game after a 3 year layoff. I also want to congratulate Noel Mendoza on his first tournament win and Noah for his first 2nd place finish. Both of these youngsters have been playing for one month. Of course, I want to congratulate Ben Shadrick for his 2 Type 2 event wins and Jacob Martinez for his Type 1-Multi-Player victory.
-
thanks, i had a great time and was hoping to play booster but maybe next time. i hope to see aaron and chad back for the next one.
-
Hello, Guys and Lady, (Chris-no laughing)
I had a great time and want to think all y'all for showing my the ropes. To the black with purple streaks female, YOU WILL be defeated
next time. Hopefully, I'll remember what artifact to use. (Old testament blocks don't work on New testament Heroes) I appreciate all the
help I recieved from Marcus(RedemptionAggie) on identifying the cards I needed as what brigade they were, from Ben10 ;D on trading for some
of the promos I needed and from Terry on the cards I purchased. (I do greatly appreicate the deal you made.) Looking forward to seeing y'all next time.
May God grant you peace in body and spirit though our Lord Jesus Christ,
Stephen
-
I just keep praising God for the play group we have. You are a very welcomed addition. By the way guys, Noah was so excited that he began teaching his cousin how to play, opened the practice game with prayer and gave his cousin lots of cards to start his own collection. Cool, huh. You all are such a good example to the little guy.
-
Sorry Couldn't make it last weekend. Had the in-laws in town for the weekend. Looks like I won't be able to make the next either. I'm doing Thanksgiving with the in-laws in Nov since we'll be in MI for Thanksgiving and I'm graduating in Dec. Hopefully you can do a better job scheduling them in the spring ;D
-
Guys and Girl,
Am looking forward to Nov 20th. Am trying to build a deck so I can go against the big dogs. keep posting,I'm glad there are so many Texans that play Redemption ccg.
Till Christ Returns,make mine cactus, Sadness
-
Rangers Win! Rangers Win!
You are such a welcome addition to our playgroup Stephen. Looking forward to the next event
-
Jason, we are looking forward to you joining us whenever that might be. We are having a great time with a rejuvinated playgroup this year. We have someones old, someones new, someones borrowed (Jordan from Colorado), and someones blue (Sadness). We have the makings of the best year yet in Texas! GO RANGERS!
-
Hey, Texas. Check out those tournament rankings. Go Rangers
-
Hey everybody, I'm Justin Cannady! Just got back into the game!! I have been playing for years but have not playing for a long time. Need to figure out all the cards I need so I can build a tourny worthy deck. I know the tournaments are held in dallas, but are there any players in the Fort Worth area?? I live in Glen Rose and am about 1 hour from Ft Worth, 2 hours from Dallas. Would be great to have some players close to my area. Anyways can't wait to make it to a tournament!
God Bless
-
Great, Justin. We have a number of people here that could help you with the cards. Many for free. We meet about once a month for tournaments. Our next tournament is a district on November 20th. It will start at approx 9 am. Location: The Life Church at the intersection of Hillcrest and Alpha roads.
We have a player from weatherford and another from Tyler, but most of our playgroup live in the Dallas area. Hope to see you soon. My cell is 972 948 2304. Please don't hesitate to call if you have any questions. My name is Terry.
-
That's great I can't wait to make it to a tournament! Do y'all ever meet up and play when it's not a tournament??
-
Some of the guys might, but I don't think they have recently. Ben would for sure. He's already been quoted as saying that he'd play every weekend if he could. He is part of a group of four players that come regularly to our tournaments. Best thing to do is to ask them yourself when you see us.
Looking forward to meeting you in person.
Terry
-
Terry,
How many cards do you allow in type 1 and type 2?
Thanks, Stephen
-
By rule, Type 1 decks have to be between 50-154 cards. Type 2 decks can be between 100-252 cards. Terry probably doesn't (and can't) enforce other limits.
For deck checking, T2 decks need to be organized (all copies of the same card together, all cards of the same alignment together - good/evil/neutral) to be able to check it in any decent amount of time. It's probably also a good idea to organize T1 decks over probably 70 cards, so it's easier to catch duplicate cards that aren't supposed to be there. (Technically, all decks are supposed to be organized, but it's easier to remember/catch mistakes in the usual 50/56/63 card decks than larger decks.)
-
Thanks, Marcus. November 20th! Be there.
Three more brand new players were introduced to the game last Sunday. Cheyenne and Taylor, brother sister and another adult, David, were excited about the game and will probably try to make it to the next tournament.
Hope to see close to 20 players at next tournament.
-
Guys,
Hate to ask this,sure I'll get some kidding on this ;D
What is the tournament schedule again?
Correct me if I'm wrong
Closed deck
Type 1 (50-100 cards)
Type 2 (100-252 cards)
Booster-by the way,what is a booster
Sadness
May God bless us and Christ shower us with His Love and Mercy
-
We have 2 tournaments coming up. Both are District. November 20th six events will be offered. Closed Deck, Both type 1 and Type 2 events, and Booster Draft will be offered.
In Booster Draft you get six or seven packs, each from a different set. You open one pack at a time, take a card, pass it to the player to the right or left of you, look at the cards passed to you and take one card, then pass those cards to the person you passed to a few moments before and repeat until all the cards from everyone's first pack are taken. Then you open a second pack from the 6 or 7 you originnally received and start the same process over. You do that for each pack. Then when all the packs have been opened and passed around, you have about 15 minutes to create a deck using the cards you chose. It's pretty simple. It is like no other type of game either. Attack, attack, attack often wins, so draft Good Characters and some enhancements to aid them. I am sure others can explain its intricacies better than I. It is the most costly to play, though. Roughly $20 because of the number of packs you receive.
-
I will not be there, sadly.
Senior class hunting trip that day. ;D
-
I am sorry to hear that Ben. Stay safe. See you in December.
-
Actually there's a change in plans and hunting will be the following weekend, so I will be there at the tournament this weekend.
-
Another Saturday, another exciting tournament (especially for first time winner C.J. Jackson). Congratulations, CJ on your first place finish in Type-1 Multi-Player.
Ben Shaddrick and Marcus Parker once again Dominated the Type 2 events, as Ben Won both events and Marcus came in second. Terry Markoff finished a distant third. Marcus also won Booster Draft in a wild and wacky 4 game set. Ben edged out Terry for second place.
Terry Markoff won his first Type-1 2 Player tournament in which he inadvertently entered a deck with no EDominants. Go figure.
Marcus Rutledge racked up a third place finish in both Type 1 events and CJ Jackson came in Type 1-2 Player.
We only had 8 players able to make this event. We are hoping for 15-18 at our next district tournament on Saturday, December 18th.
If anyone has any questions, please let me know.
Terry
-
Terry,
Barring bad weather,I'll be there for the Dec 18th tour.
Sadness
-
Fantastic! I will have a box of Disciples, a box of Thesaurus and all tins for Booster. Looking forward to the next tournament on December 18th. We hope to start by 9:15 am.
-
District Tournament Saturday, December 18th at The Life Church, Dallas, TX
Start Time approximately 9:15 am (please try to be there earlier for deck checks)
I believe Stephen is coming as is CJ, Noah and myself.
Please let me know if you are planning to attend.
If you have any questions, please give me a call (972) 948-2304.
Thanks, Terry

Again, I will have to miss this one. At 10am, I will be graduating with my bachelors. Hopefully I'll have better luck this spring to make it out for a couple.
-
I will be there. Depending on Jordan's basketball schedule, he may or may not be there.
-
Does anybody know if Chris and C.J. will be there?
Sadness
P.S. I want a re-match. ;D
-
I am betting that Chris, Alicia, Marcus and CJ will be there. I spoke to CJ about 2 weeks ago and he indicated that he'd be there.
-
Hey Terry,
Just wanted to let you know the tournament this Saturday is on my schedule. I will be picking Bethany up from Denton Friday night (after a stressful semester of college), so I am not sure if she will want to play. Either way, I am planning to see you Saturday morning.
BTW - do you have the schedule planned out for the day? I was trying to make sure I had some decks ready.
-
Hey, Buddy. Glad to hear that you will be able to make it. We have been trying to start by 9:15 am with Type 1, Type 2 2 Player. After lunch, we do the Type 1 and 2 Multi-Player and for those desiring to stay, we follow that up with Booster Draft. We have been finishing up by 4:30 ish.
Ben and Marcus will be glad to see you. They need a third for T2-Multi. They've taken turns beating up on me.
-
Yes!! Looking forward to seeing you there this Saturday, Buddy.

I guess they can beat up on me just as easily as they can you. I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again.

Guys and gals,
Does anybody have a seeker,soldier or faithful servant that they are willing to trade?
Dad got some time off and we are going to the gun show. So I won't be able to be there.
When is the Jan. tour?
P.S. Tell Chris I will see him next time.

Welcome back, Buddy Dunn. Buddy returned to our playgroup after about a year's absence with a bang, as he placed 1st in Booster Draft, 2nd in Type 2-Multi and 3rd in Type 2-2 player events. Congratulations, Buddy for your triumphant return and for saving me from using Marcus Parker's heroless Type 2 deck (well, it had heroes, but I rarely saw them).
Marcus does quite nicely with his #1 Type 2 deck, though as he racked up 2nd place finishes in both of the Type 2 events. It probably goes without saying that Ben Shadrick once again was the story with his 2 wins as he swept the Type 2 matches.
Noel Mendoza once again won the Closed Deck competition as Noah Johnson finished 2nd.
John Jacob returned to form with a 1st place finish in the Type 1-2 Player event as Luz Mora took 2nd place and CJ Jackson took 3rd. CJ had a great day as he beat the field of Type 1-Multi players much to everyone's astonishment (except himself). John Jacob tied for 2nd in that event.
Neeka Parker tied for 2nd place in the Type 2-Mult event. She also returned to play after a very successful semester at college.
I hope to schedule a Local and a District tournament some time late January or February. Thank you all for your participation and helping to make our tournaments so special.

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Is anyone in the Houston area...???
-

-
I will be able to host a Local tournament on January 29th. Start time around 9 am. I will be able to offer Type 1 and Type 2: 2 player and Multi-player. I will make a few phone calls. I am trying to find a time for a District tournament but my family has a bunch of weekends slotted for birthdays, anniversarries, trips, etc.
-
Sweet! Count me in. Built a new deck-all will fear me :maul:
Sadness
-
I should be there and will see if Jordan will be able to join us.

OK guys. I faxed the results of the local we had and applied for a local on February 26th and a District on March 26th. More info will follow.
-
I ordered among other things a box of both Disciples and Thesaurus for the 2/26 local and the 3/26 District.
-
I should be at the Local on February 26th. Not sure about Jordan since he doesn't have his basketball schedule yet.
-
how many of us will be there? by the way,I'm in:)
-
My guess is between 10-15.
We will play Type 1 and Type 2 2 player in am and the multi in afternoon. Players will be given option to play Type 2 Type 1 or Booster after lunch.
I am hoping Marcus, Alicia and Chris make it as well as Jacob, CJ, and Jhovanny. Buddy, Marcus P. one of the twins, me and Ben S. Maybe one or more of the women (Bethany, Neeka, Luz).
I should have a box of disciples and Thesaurus cards as well.
-
It would be nice to see some more girls ;D
No offense.
-
Indeed. Be nice to hv every member of our play group. I have received the promos, etc for the last local, the 2/26 local and the 3/26 District as well as the disciples, thesaurus and priest packs. See you 9 am Saturday, Feb. 26th. Have to end tournament by 2 pm.
-
Since the tournament has to end at 2 pm, I believe that means Jordan can come (since he has to be at work at 4).
Edit: Also, Aaron said he was going to ask for work on the 26th and will be trying to attend. So hopefully both of them will be joining me.
-
I should be there. I don't know about Neeka - it depends on what she has the week after that she may need to study for.
-
Good to hear.
-
How does booster work?
-
Any more info on the march tourny?
-
There will be a District Tournament on March 26th. We will try to start about 9:15 am after the deck checks.
1st session offers: Closed Deck, Type 1 and 2 two player.
afternoon session will offer the type 1 and 2 multi games
If there is interest, Booster (with Disciples, a tin, and Thesaurus will be offered for $20.
Hope to see you all there.
-
Terry, add one more to your count for tomorrow. I'm planning on being there.
-
I will try to be there. Will call if I can't make it.
