Rumor has it that play groups who host Nationals die the next year. So help us disprove that rumor and join us for an event or five.

Someone left a blue binder with a sheet with the Redemption logo taped to the front at game night last night. If it sounds like yours or someone you know, let me know. I will bring it to next game night.

What's going to be the new special category for the T2 only?

20th Century Style. No cards created this century allowed.*


*Maybe not, but you never know.

Do you know how to contact him? He's friends with Neil Johnson, right?

What's going to be the new special category for the T2 only?
Given the number of competitors, Wild Bill has decided to convert the T2 only into a two day event.  T2-MP will be Friday evening and T2-2P will be Saturday during the day. This means the special category--if any--will need to run sometime between midnight to 8 am or so.  Here are some ideas I have, but we have plenty of time to hear your better suggestions...

No special category this year (we should all get some sleep--especially Kirk)

T2 Iron Man

T2 Teams (we should be able to get one round in in 8 hours ;) )

T2 Poor Man's--Total deck must cost less than $X--using Three Lion's Gaming prices-- if bought new

T2 Five Cent--Deck must be built using cards from Bill/Matt/whoever else's 5 cent box

T2 Lend a Deck--Each player brings a deck and adds it to the pile. Each round every player receives a random deck.
                          At the end prizes are awarded to the *decks* that have the best record, and players (in order from best
                          to worst record) get to pick a deck to keep.
                       
T2 Devestator Unlimited--T2 decks built using the deck building and other rules from the Devestator era.

Repeat T2 Booster

Repeat T2 Sealed

T2 Tribulation--No good dominants allowed. Evil *always* get to play the first enhancement (barring a special ability
                       like Angel's Sword) Play to 4 LS.
                     
T2 Give Me Back My Battle Phase--The phrase "Cannot be interrupted" has no effect
                                                     "Cannot be Negated" means "Cannot be Prevented."


Also, this year I will be selling commemorative tee shirts and donating all proceeds to Wild Bill to help cover some of the tournament expenses.

Yessssssssssssssssss, please. Prizes better be pretty awesome, but considering Wild Bill's past, I have no doubts about it.

Unfortunately for you, I provide the prizes for the unofficial category. (Last year the T2 Sealed winner got a Que t-shirt.) I could try harder this year to make them awesome...

This one gets my vote--we would have to require that each player submit a decklist with the prices on it tho otherwise check-in would take forever.

Or we could just say if someone offers you $X you have to sell your deck to them at the end of the tournament.   8)

I would also go for this, but I would want to make a totally new deck, and I don't think I have the cards for that.

What's going to be the new special category for the T2 only?

Due to the amount of great players that show up we are going to play 7 rounds of Type 2-2player on Saturday. Should be a great tune up for Nationals. Friday night we will play three rounds of Multi player. Since not everybody plays Multi we will have other games on hand and of course a new special catagory.

Matt always thinks BIG.  I'm thinking of something a little smaller and quicker.  I'll call it Type 2-2Player Lite.
-Decks have to be 63 card
-Equal # of good and evil
-3 of any card (except Dom)
-rescue 6 LS to win
-No special ability LS
-Lost souls cannot be put in sites
-Only 4 dom allowed (SoG,AoL,CM and DoN)

Maybe Double elimination so even those that play multi can play.

I'll run everything by SQF and Fortress Alstad members before we decide on the final rules. Let me know what you think.

DoN over Burial? The starter would seem fine.

I like the rules though. Bwahahaha.

Burial would eliminate one LS to rescue. Since you have to rescue 6 I thought no Burial would be good. DoN at least helps you get rid of an artifact.

With 8 lost souls per deck and an entire defense for soul generation, we shouldn't have a problem...

Personally, I am not crazy about this option. It feels more like it's own separate beastie (and closer to T1) rather than a T2 event.

I know a good idea when I see one. And this is smart. I just have two fears:
1.) Everyone builds no SA decks.
2.) Not enough people play.

Hey all...I may have just come up with an idea that makes T2 TEAMS feasible.

    Each TEAM checks in one legal T2 deck.
    After check-in the TEAM-mates divide the lost souls evenly between them.
    The TEAM-mates now divvy up the rest of the cards as they see fit.
    Play TEAMS (with the standard T2-2P time limit).

What do all y'all think?
