So Regionals was fun, but I decided to repurpose this thread to talk about MN State. I will be making the trip, and like Regionals, I can likely borrow my parents' van for a carpool. I have six total seats, so if you need a ride from the TC-area let me know. All I would need is money for gas (probably about $10 or so depending on how many people come with me). First priority goes to the people who rode with me to Regionals, but I know that at least one of those people will be out of the country, so I will for sure have 1 open seat. I will also leave the thread open for others who may have room in their cars for rides.

I'm going, but I'm not sure when I can go. My graduation party is until 4, so I'm not going be able to make it for the first event. I'm not sure about the second event. I'm still looking to carpool though, if somebody is planning on going down Sunday night or early Monday morning. Last time, with Bill, I met him just off of I-35, which isn't at all out of the way for either of us.

It's possible that Justin will have to work Sunday afternoon, in which case he might have to miss Sunday night's event as well. If that turns out to be the case, perhaps he and whoever else might have that situation could meet you along the way.

Hey Dudes,

I'll be going, I can take 2 with me in a car. You'd have to hook up somewhere in Roch though.

When will regionals be? I can't go anytime from June 10-24, and probably not during the July 15-18 weekend, although that is a bit more flexible.

And also when will states be? Same unavailable dates for that.

I should put that on the first post. Regionals is Memorial Day weekend, Sunday night and Monday during the day. May 29-30.

States will be in Austin, June 16-17. So looks like that might not work for you.

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #6 on:** May 08, 2011, 05:57:05 PM »

I believe MN state is June 17-18 in Austin.

Noob >:c.

I'll be looking to carpool if our group isn't going.

Seriously? On a Monday? And before State? Is that some kind of record?

It's the first time that I know of. But it's after Iowa State. And pretty much everyone has Memorial Day off.

Perfectly the absolute wort possible time. I will be in Spain then.

Well, that was just poor planning on your part. States has been that weekend in June for probably the past three years at least...But hey, you'll be in Spain.

MN isn't actually having a state tournament this year. We're just pretending to have one to lure Tim into his surprise party.

Also, I'm allowed to use Laban at Regionals, right?

You should ask Gabe to be sure, but I don't see why not.

Hey,

You can add me to the list of confirmed attendees.

Tschow,

Will Pizza Ranch be open in austin by that time?

In addition to getting down there we need to coordinate a pizza ranch run. Me and My dad were thinking about goin' down a litte early to eat before it starts but any other time is cool too. The problem is that they close really early because its iowa so finding another time might be difficult.

Professoralstad · « **Reply #13 on:** May 08, 2011, 10:14:05 PM »

That's another thing: when are people planning on going down/coming back? I am available to leave anytime Saturday or Sunday, and would probably be okay coming back on Tuesday morning, but would prefer getting back on Sunday night/early Monday morning (I plan on staying for all events).

TheHobbit13 · « **Reply #14 on:** May 08, 2011, 10:22:30 PM »

that didn't make sense, but we will probably leave at either 11 or 12 sunday.

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #15 on:** May 08, 2011, 11:02:23 PM »

I'm planning on going down either Sunday evening or Monday morning. Coming back preferably Monday night...

I hope it opens soon, I haven't been there in like 3 years. They've been taking applications so I think it opens soon, but I haven't been paying attention.

All I care about is getting down in time for the first event. Coming back whenever: I'd rather not stay in a hotel or something and going off in the morning, but I'm willing to if need be.

Rawrlolsauce! · « **Reply #17 on:** May 09, 2011, 08:45:59 AM »

First post. Near the pizza ranch in North Liberty IA.

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #18 on:** May 09, 2011, 02:22:14 PM »

Really really really really really angry right about now. And that doesn't usually happen. I can't go. Some of my family and a friend who lives far away and I only get to see once a year at best are staying until Monday afternoon. It's a lose/lose situation, and I figure Friends and Family should come before Redemption (of course, some of you are like family...)

In other news, I'm looking into flying to another Regionals...any suggestions?

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #19 on:** May 09, 2011, 02:26:16 PM »

Midwest, skip MN state. I'm going to that one

You'd only need a one-way ticket too, since I'm driving back with my Dad.

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #20 on:** May 09, 2011, 02:42:37 PM »

Where are you flying into?

Definitely going to look up tickets now. Are you willing to play Sauce's Teams deck which isn't currently built?

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #21 on:** May 09, 2011, 02:45:06 PM »

Nope, I'm playing teams with Mark Underwood. Not sure exactly where I'm flying into as I don't think Dad has actually legit booked my tickets yet - It's changed a few times.....

Warrior_Monk · « **Reply #22 on:** May 09, 2011, 04:04:15 PM »

Nope. Can't go to MN State or Midwest Regions. We'll be in the BWCA.

Well, this is awful...

Rawrlolsauce! · « **Reply #23 on:** May 09, 2011, 04:23:56 PM »

In other news, I'm looking for a teams partner for MN State and NC Regionals if anyone is interested.

Please submit applications, resumes, and references no later then whenever the tournament starts. You must be able to win ez ez ez ez.

The M · « **Reply #24 on:** May 09, 2011, 05:00:15 PM »

I am 99.9% sure I will be attending both and could be a teams partner for both.
Put me down for coming and I would prefer to carpool with anybody.
