That will be no problem!

I'm also gonna be there, and I'll be bringing some guys from my playgroup (and hopefully my daughter) with me. However, I'll have to wait until summer school starts before I'll know exactly who's gonna be available to go

Does your daughter play or does Alanna need some time with less kids? Jason and Ryan do okay with the game. I think I overwhelmed them too fast.

She's beginning to learn the game. I started her off with a deck with no special abilities other than SoG and AotL. Purple heroes and Brown ECs, enhancements, LSs, and 1 site made up her deck. She was able to pick it up really quickly, and since then we just switch out a card or 2 a week so that she can learn how to deal with special abilities. We started with simple banding and a bit of discarding. Just recently we added in her first artifacts (Tables of the Law and Unknown Nation), and she's also got Cristian Martyr, Burial, and Harvest Time at this point. No fortresses yet or TC-class stuff, and no set-aside. But she did play in our tournament last weekend, and she didn't come in last.

Overall, it's been a great experience playing with her over the last many months. It is another game that we both enjoy playing together, and getting new cards is a good motivator for her to study her Bible Quizzing

ahhh Free Methodist Bible Quizzing.... I was a beast at quizzing!

Actually she does Junior Bible Quizzing with the Assemblies of God system (since she's only 7 and Free Methodist Bible Quizzing only starts with Junior High). However, our students here at our school do compete in Free Methodist Bible Quizzing. We've been doing the book of John this year, and it's been great.

uthminister [BR] · « **Reply #10 on:** March 31, 2011, 10:50:57 AM »

So then we will now be offering Type-A for the youngsters and a Bible Quiz for anyone interested...
(the first one was not a joke, but the second is yet to be seen)

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #11 on:** March 31, 2011, 01:15:28 PM »

The second is acceptable only if it consists of Redemption card stories.

robm · « **Reply #12 on:** March 31, 2011, 10:57:43 PM »

We would love to come, but I will have to check with work and there is also our daughter who will be 17 months in June. Once we know when we are going on vacation this summer will be a factor too.

Definitely interested in defending a few titles from last year though!

Remember, once you know you are coming, pre-register using the form above. Thanks!

For a schedule suggestion, would you consider this schedule. It would have a T1 option for each time slot (since no one in my playgroup plays T2), and would have a closed category at each time slot (since most of the people in my playgroup don't have enough money to play Sealed or Booster).

Fri Evening: T2-mp, Sealed, TEAMS (possibly starting after the other 2 end)
Sat Morning: T1-2p, T2-2p
Sat Afternoon: Booster, T1-mp

soul seeker · « **Reply #15 on:** April 01, 2011, 01:25:23 PM »

I don't like the idea of T1 2P and T2 2P going against each other. Both of those categories are really popular.

I would switch and make T2 MP go against T1 2P on Saturday, and play T2 2P Friday night.

The schedule Mark suggested provides no incentive for me to show on a Friday night.

I just kept T1-2p and T2-2p together since they'll be together at Nats, so I figured people would want to maximize RNRS points. But for gameplay purposes, I agree that having T2-2p would be a better incentive for Fri night.

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #17 on:** April 01, 2011, 04:11:50 PM »

I hate having T2MP go against T12P....

I feel like I'm one of the few people who actually likes T2MP but dislikes T22P.....

Hey guys.

My flights have changed slightly. If I didnt get in to dayton until midnight on thur. Would one of you still be able to pick me up then?

crustpope · « **Reply #21 on:** April 28, 2011, 08:36:17 PM »

Yeah I can get ya! NP.

You still got my number?

Red Dragon Thorn · « **Reply #22 on:** April 28, 2011, 09:17:47 PM »

Probably not actually... My phone has been having issues lately. Why don't you send me a pm with it so that I've got it for sure. Thanks!

RTSmaniac · « **Reply #23 on:** April 28, 2011, 09:27:52 PM »

I would still like to get my hands on one of those playmats.

galadgawyn · « **Reply #24 on:** May 04, 2011, 02:53:10 PM »

I might also be able to help if there is additional need for someone coming from out of town.
