Is that John M.???

Only if you can correctly spell and pronounce his last name.

I would go with

    type 1  2p
    Type 2  2p
    Teams
    Booster Draft
    Sealed Deck
    Type 1 multi
    Type 2 multi

JOHN

 +1 But, maybe its a regional thing

I usually just press my whole hand against the keyboard to spell his last name. I pronounce his name "John" when I see him in person.

I tent to mash my face against my keyboard, but both strategies are effective. First names make everything easier.

First names make everything easier.

Redemption has its issues with just first names, particularly Tim and Ben.

When it comes to Tims, I know I don't mean myself, but to not get confused with nobody, I have to mash the keyboard for a certain one.

I prefer:

T1 Multiplayer
T2 Multiplayer
Sealed Deck
T1 -2 Player
T2 2 Player
Booster

-Haven't played Teams yet so I don't know where I would put it. Would be hard to host at some locals and districts because you need 4 people that want to play.

One nice thing about the new ability to choose what events are at a tournament means that hopefully we'll be able to see for sure what the relative popularities are.  Hopefully we'll get to see some actual numbers after Christmas :)

Hey now,

Don't forget about the Giraffe! Gilbert is upset that you forgot about him so soon.

And the code talk was absolutely epic! I think you've given us a strategy for a whole year.  ;)

Yeah,

We didn't have that planned either, after the first game we layed out ground plans for the code, then we kinda just improvised after that, Big Bear was new to me, but I got it after I drew my copy ;)

Yeah, that strategy is pretty popular. I would say I hope you at least know the first couple letters, but after the number of "Tim Meriz" and "Timmerz" names I've gotten, I take nothing for granted.

Redemption has its issues with just first names, particularly Tim and Ben

Yeah... I always get so confused when sitting near Ben Arp and then having someone yell "Ben!" across the room.

I'm changning my name to Alfonzo. So there. No more confusion.

See, I told you we had issues. Here is an example of one taking one of my quotes and crediting it to Smokey.
