Higher Education, LOL.....Mark Underwood was in Orlando!?? Jealous

Mark Underwood was in Orlando!??

Indeed I was.  And it was a GREAT day spent with YMT's family and friends.  A few of them were kind enough to remember my last visit, and it was good to reconnect with them.  And there were also at least 2 players there for their first tournament ever (including my 2nd daughter).  It was the perfect place to introduce her to Redemption tournaments.

I was proud of my oldest (Alecia), who was in the game for 2nd place, and only lost by 1 LS (thus dropping to 4th).  And I was proud of Katrina for having a blast and being happy with rescuing some LSs from some tough opponents.  Meanwhile the tournament overall was a ton of fun with a bunch of close games.  3 of my 4 wins in T1-2p were by only 1 LS, and I barely made it to the championship round of T1-mp.  I also really enjoyed teaming up with my fellow teacher even if our deck experiment didn't quite work out as well as planned.

As for FL states, we'll just have to wait and see ...

Higher Education....hmmm....I think Prof UnderDog...opps I mean Under"Wood" and YMT ought to "school" the rest of us unedumacated folks down in South FL how to gator done @ States

we may bring 5 instead, but 1 may only be observing and it seems the majority of the group only plans on playing one category.

Btw YMT what time friday night?

Btw YMT what time friday night?

8pm

I'm pretty sure most of the people want to play T12P...

Personally I just want to play Sealed.

I can have both of those on Saturday, then. What category will you guys definitely not play. I can make that the Friday night event.

We're divided on preferences. I'd like T12P and I believe Majus too, my brother wants T1MP and Hunter wants Sealed. We would arrived late Friday night, 9:30ish in Orlando.

So why don't we plan on T2-2P on Friday night, so you guys can take your time getting here. Depending on number of participants, we may have to double up categories on Saturday.

I noticed that none of them mentioned TEAMS.  Could we run TEAMS on Fri night at the same time as T2-2p?  That way it wouldn't have to double up with one of the events on Sat, and it would also give players who don't have a T2 deck something to play on Fri.

I am open to this plan. Indeed, none of my players have T2 decks. I was just going to play Civilization and Age of Empires. 

I had presumed that some of the South Florida guys have TEAMS decks, even though they did not mention it. I had already envisioned a team of twins, as well as the Master & his apprentice. I could be wrong, though. 

Will states be at your place or the church due to the number of peoples?

Both States and Regionals are at the church.

Really...? I thought it was going to be at your house, isn't that what was posted? If so, can you post the address of the church again? 

As surprising as it may seem, my brother & I have 'never' played Teams together. Majus & his apprentice haven't said anything about teams or even playing together and neither Majus's former teammate. I'm the only person who was interested in trying out T22P, but its ok if I miss out.  I don't like long games. Type 1 is fine for me.

When is Regionals?

I am open to this plan.

In that case, would you be interested in teaming up again?  I have an idea for some changes to make that hopefully will fix some of the problems that we ran into

I'm not sure that this will be a possibility. I have already told you about my concerns for the big tournaments. If you, me, and Josh all play TEAMS, there will no qualifying judge for our games. Maybe you should team up with Josh Kopp. 

I'd be more than happy to partner with you

Sounds great, let's do it!

I'm still checking interest with the group as to whether or not they're serious about attending.

You guys better!  If I can come all the way from KY, you surely can come from within the same state right

Don't worry. Your deck secrets are safe with me... 

I appreciate that.  I will also miss having you as a teammate.  It was fun to be part of Higher Education
