Thanks to all who have pre-registered so far. It looks like we will have 10 people playing T2 so we will need to add a 4th round. The student union where we are playing closed at 10 so we will need to move to another location for the last round - the church office may fit 5 matches and if not we can go to McDonalds. :)

Can In redeem Redemption cash that I already have on hand? Would like to get some starter decks, new tin or treasures and disciples have about $200. I can always send it in to Cactus but this would be quicker.

Good question Bill - I was hoping to provide those who place with the first priority. I have about 10 tins and 10 starters and around 20-30 disciples/thesaurus. So we will play it by ear.

Thanks for the heads up King Leo! How many players will come with you?

Hey Kirk I'll probably drive down on Sat morning. If I had a T2 deck I'd come on Fri but I haven't really found time to make one :P.

At this point it will be just me, I don't know if Michael or anyone from Green Bay is coming but I know for sure Ryan cannot.

If you wanted to make the trip, you can most certainly borrow my T2 Multi deck for 2P. I haven't tested it in 2-Player, but I think most of the strategy should translate well, and any modifications that you would suggest can be implemented as well. It did win MN State in MP, so it does have some street cred.

Let me know if you want a deck list. The last time I brought someone a T2-2P deck to a Regional tournament so that he could play, he ended up placing second (and was one very close play away from first) after beating me in the first round.

If you would be willing to lend me a deck then I would be fine with that. If that is possible then I would come on Fri and would need to stay at the church.

Cool. I will send you a decklist of what I have at the moment, and you can let me know of any modifications that you would like to make, and I will do my best to accommodate them. Will try to send it out tonight.

Master Q, you should build this deck. Not only is it similar to the T1 deck you've dominated other tournaments with but it's also proven itself by going undefeated against both MN and WI players alike. ;)

Sealed and Booster look good right now.

Looks like my kind of deck but I don't have sufficient copies of some of those cards so that wouldn't be possible for me to make. I'd prefer to just borrow a complete deck anyway.

Where is the best place to park? It looks like it is on the U of W campus.

That's my question, too. Mostly curious if I should bring some extra cash for parking.

The one time I went there, there was street parking available a few blocks away (but it took awhile to find open spots--not sure how much that changes during the summer, but if it's anything like the U of M during summer, it will likely be about the same to a little better).

I think there's a nearby parking garage if you don't like hunting for spots, so extra money probably isn't a bad idea. But I don't think it's required.

Several options for parking.

A. Street parking is everywhere - can usually find several spots within a few blocks.
B. Parking structure underneath Union South but it costs money.
C. Park on Oakland Ave as close to Monroe St as possible. The church office is on the corner of Oakland and Monroe so you will be able to keep your car parked there the whole weekend and be set. Half a mile walk to Union South.

Everyone can feel free to call with questions - (904) 263-0972. Look forward to seeing everyone!

The one consolation was that the winning deck originated in MN...fresh off of a T2 Multi win at MN state. Also that was T2-2P, not multi.

I had easily the worst tourney for T2 ever personally.  But ill report more later after I get a bit of sleep.
