I'll be there and will need a place to stay. Right now I'm scheduled to work on the 26 until 11pm, but I should be able to get that switched so I can get some sleep and play T1 Multiplayer.

Does anybody have plans for a caravan from MN?

I'm currently in negotiations with my wife, but even if I can't go, I know Jayden and Tim (and maybe Justin, not sure if he works that weekend or not) were trying to plan something.

Rob emailed me that he will approve it this week so everything should be good to go!

Nathan, I assume y'all will come on Friday night and want a place to stay or will you have other lodging plans?

Okay, so I got work switched for one job and picked up a shift at the other.  However, that gets done at 5:30, so I should be there before 10:00, and once again, will be staying at the church.

Hey,

I'm planning to be there and will need a place to sleep.

For the first time in my life I'm disapointed to see that there are no categories running against T1-2P :)

Tschow,

If you have a simple scheduling suggestion to move something next to T1 2p I would be happy to hear it. Or you could judge t1 2p if you are disappointed. :)

It's really more irony than disapointment.  As a sechedlue that allows players to play in four events it is a very solid schedule.  (With four blocks of events something has to be alone since there's only seven events and T1-2P is the optimal event for that position.)  As a player that prefers more rounds over more events I'd be inclined towards moving T2-2P against T1-2P, dropping T1-MP entirely and moving T2-MP and Booster Draft to Friday night, but that's simply a matter of personal preference.

Tschow,

 :P

Softball has been the one consistent thing I've been able to do this summer because of the craziness of working at the stadium so this year it does have priority. We even have an event that Friday, (not a Twins game), so I'm just thankful I'll be able to do something fun that weekend. I probably won't even be able to go to MN State because of work...  :(

Is Friday going to be at the church office again, or is everything at the Union?

Thanks for the input Tim. I am going to mull on that for a bit - your suggestion would allow us to add a round to T1 2p and Sealed and finish by dinner. Just realized that my current schedule does not accommodate for dinner so players would be eating during Booster and T2 multi, which I think is okay. I have a feeling a number of players would prefer being able to play 4 events.

Others in attendance - would y'all have an interest in a schedule change as Tim described?

Scott,
Every event will be at the Union - I don't believe we will have enough room to play at the church office.

As long as I get to play either Booster or Sealed I'd be happy. I'd be sad to see T1-MP go but I think I'm the only one that likes that category anymore. :P

I agree as well. Tim just doesn't like having to face Nathan and my troll decks in T1... ;)

But seriously, I am all for playing in more events if I'm going to take the trip out there. But that's just me.

Hey,

How many times have I lost to either of those decks this year? :P

I think I'm the only one that likes that category anymore. :P

I am a fan of T1-MP.  I enjoy a category that's as much about playing the other players at the table as it is about playing the game (and doesn't take an hour and a half to play).  It's a nice change of pace from 2 player.
