Am I included in that guests from MN? If not, mark me and James down!

Is there any chance that TEAMS gets added to the slate? Possibly run against T1MP and Booster? Or maybe in place of touring your job

I was still debating between booster and multi (especially since having to pay for the badger bus is cutting into my available funds), but if you drop multi for Teams then that just means I'm definitely playing booster, lol.

I would love to play TEAMS. I'll need a teammate, and if they need a deck I'd be more than happy to provide one for them. It'll probably just be Samuel speed, so I don't really need somebody with skillz. I haven't had much success beating John and James anyway, but I need the points since Sauce is leaving me to die in the cold. All alone.

I dunno. I tend to be paranoid, so I have really been uncomfortable with the idea of Teams since it would mean I am responsible to someone other than myself if I make a mistake (especially one that costs the game), but I guess now is as good a time as any to branch out of my shell. If you change to Teams I would consider playing if I could be matched with a teammate (who preferably is easy-going, haha).

So I get to go back to having to choose between Booster and Multi, joy. lol

You could decide based on which needs another player to make things even!

Yeah, I was thinking of doing that. Just hope we have an even number of players, haha.

Thanks for the heads up Josh.

That's a bummer that the three of y'all will not be in attendance anymore - I guess that means WI is a lock to win.

I'm pretty sure I got second.
