Excellent Roy we're coming

As of right now I am planning on attending this, and may be bringing my girlfriend, depending on how things shape up. In preparation for the T2 Only, I would prefer that the T12P and T22P tournaments be run separately, but I'd do the T12P if they end up running at the same time (or I'll be really talented and play BOTH). If the events start at 10, I would almost definitely need a place to stay for the night as it's a 4 hour drive for me from school.

Did you mean Friday and Saturday night sleepover, then?

Chronic Apathy · « **Reply #5 on:** January 07, 2012, 11:10:35 PM »

It would depend on when the event wrapped up and whether my girlfriend ends up coming with me. I'd definitely need to spend Friday night though.

well id like to do this but i can't spend any money right now as im only doing t2 blowout thanks to generousity of others and no roy i haven't forgotten our debt im just so broke right now but if chronic was willing to pick me up from philly on his way thru maybe i could prolly attend and would also need a place to crash

Chronic Apathy · « **Reply #7 on:** January 07, 2012, 11:24:30 PM »

Sorry Matt, I wouldn't be able to do that. That would be adding at least 90 minutes of travel time both ways, and I won't be able to leave until Friday evening regardless.

I'll say **maybe**

MrMiYoda · « **Reply #10 on:** January 11, 2012, 12:33:40 AM »

Please see initial post for updates, ie. we will most likely do a Local on Friday night or late afternoon. The events offered may only be T1 2P and T2 2P (both are free-of-charge) OR we might have only Booster Draft should plans for Mr. Anderson's visit to Long Island push through on Feb. 10th.

Godbless.

Chronic Apathy · « **Reply #11 on:** January 11, 2012, 01:21:01 AM »

Right now I am definitely going and bringing my girlfriend. If anyone else from this area wants to tag along, they are more than welcome, though gas money would be appreciated. We would be planning on arriving about 6pm, if the tournaments could hold off until then, and we would need a place to crash Friday night and possibly Saturday night depending on what time we wrap things up.

Should be able to follow up on that. Can't wait to come. God Bless!!!

Hey Roy

If you could plan the Friday night event for 7 PM I'm sure our group from MA/CT would be on time for that. I will also be booking a hotel room for 2 nights and anyone ( guys only) who would like to crash with us don't mind some Quality Floor time, is welcome. I get 1 bed and the guys can wrestle over the other one. By the way ... I will be at ToyFair @ the Javits center on Sunday. ( about 4 hours) Anyone coming with me should plan on an alternate activity to occupy themselves during that time. We will then leave for home sometime between 2-3 pm.

Thanks JOHN

We can only make it for Saturday, so I'd really like to see Booster Draft kept on Saturday. (If nobody else wants to play, I have my own 4-player table coming with me.

)

Steve, Booster Draft will definitely be played as one of the events for Saturday. We were talking about it being an option for the planned Local Tourney on Friday evening.

See you soon!

Peace and blessings.

I will re-confirm this with you, but I'm positive it will not be a problem.

See you soon!

Godbless.

John, if it would help save $ I can confirm free floor space for you and your guys at Dario's place by Friday should they give their 'yes' to me tomorrow. Else, if your prefer to book a hotel that is also perfectly fine.

See you soon!

Peace.

Please check urgent updates on the initial post. Thanks and Godbless.

Thanks to all of those to take the long trip out this way to join us for some fellowship and card play. We will see you then!

Travel Safe!!

Just a reminder that Rob will be at the Villanova's only on Friday evening (Feb. 10th).

See you all soon!

Godbless.

Chronic Apathy · « **Reply #21 on:** February 09, 2012, 06:18:02 PM »

I am planning on arriving sometime between 5:30-6:30, my girlfriend will not be with me. John M has not gotten back to me yet, so if necessary Roy, could I borrow the cards I need for my T1 and T2 decks? I will need a place to crash as well, and I'm planning on bringing a sleeping bag and pillows.

Smokey · « **Reply #22 on:** February 10, 2012, 12:38:24 AM »

As I'm just getting over a cold and have a lot of missed school work to make up I don't think I'll be able to make this one.
