Hey,

Just putting my name in the pool of available players for March 5th tourny at RWC. I live next door to RWC, went there and have family still attending/working there. So, hopefully me and a friend (if I can convince him). Glad you moved the date, because I was not available for the Feb. 19th date.

Have you been to a Redemption tournament before KingArv?  Just curious if we've met before.

Glad to know we've got another player!  We also host more informal tournaments, starting with a box draft next Saturday.  (We've got a big communal box of cards, and play booster draft out of that.  Cheaper, but all the cards go back in afterward.)

Yes, years ago at the old Logos/Alpha & Omega store location in Greece, NY.

Hey, what is the schedule for the RWC tourny? Come to find out...I have RWCCO concert that day, which means a rehearsal 10-12:30. Disappointing, cause it probably means no chance of taking any part in Redemption that day.

There's only one event happening then, you can join us after lunch.  I haven't decided which event yet.

Cool. If it helps you decide, I do not have a T2 deck...and my best event would definitely be T1 open. But i'd be in for multi or closed/booster draft, whatever the special category ends up being.

As of now, I've got:
Round 1: T1/2 Multi
Round 2: T1/2 2P
Round 3: Teams

I can switch around any of those.  I'd like to start round 1 at 10:30, so if people could arrive at 10, that'd be great.  (if that's too early, let me know).

What's the story on the T2 categories?  I'm pretty sure you have those too.  I don't have a Teams partner as of now, so I guess my preference would be to match up against that.

EDIT:  Nevermind....I'm an idiot.  I reread your post and there is no such thing as a Type one half.   :doh:  However, I would prefer if you slid the T2 2P to go against Teams otherwise I have to go hunt for a partner.

I was planning on having multi/2P for both T1 and T2 at the same time.  This is totally in a state of flux, so suggestions are welcome.  Will you be bringing any of your group?

1 has told me a definite yes (his girlfriend is out of town).  Two others are a maybe, and I will try to get a confirmation from them tomorrow.  If you keep the current schedule, then I will likely partner up with the "definite" yes.  However, you have made my decision of what categories to play in tougher since I typically don't like multi-player.   :P

I wanted to have an alternative to T2 so that the beginners here won't have a lull.  Unless you could bring ~5 decks for everyone to share, my people will be playing T1.

Since the vast majority of T2 will be coming from outside, I'm kind of at a loss for where to put it.

How about:
T1 2P/T2 Multi
T2 2P/T1 Multi
TEAMS

Or pair a T2 event up with teams?

Probably better than...
Quote
Round 1: T1/2 Multi
Round 2: T1/2 2P
Round 3: Teams

BUT, is it possible to have the T1 2P in the afternoon? If it is ok with everyone else of course, I've got a narrow window--really just interested in T1 2P if I have a choice--about 12:30 to 6:30 because I've got a concert to play in at 7:30. Stinks for me, sorry to be difficult.

Perhaps:
T2 2P/T1 Multi
T1 2P (most people will want to join this?)
Teams/T2 Multi (later in the day where people can either leave or those who want to can stick around?)

David

P.S. where is this being held on RWC campus?

I'll see if I can accommodate that.  We'll be having that at BT's, because no one is there until eight, and they have tables.

Three things:
One, I don't know what a "BT" is in regards to the campus...by the way, is visitors parking easy to find?

Two, I was suggesting moving one of the Type 2 categories (preferably the one going against T1 2 Player) to coincide with Teams.  Ultimately, I will submit to your schedule because you know what's best with your time commitments and for your playgroup.

Three, I likely can build 5 T2 decks, but they will get worse as I build them (dominant, Lost souls, and battle winning cards-wise) and approx. 2 will be unsleeved.

As long as I know the final schedule a couple days before the event, and I should be good.  Don't stress with my opinion though...I'm just happy to play (and to get a Chaldeans).

I don't think we'll need those T2, as long as we've got a T1 category at the same time.

Visitor parking is plentiful, and I'll get a map up soon.

This seems reasonable:
T2 2P/T1 Multi
T1 2P
Teams/T2 Multi

Big things!
1.) http://www.roberts.edu/campusmap/  Park either at Upper Rinker Community Parking or Voller Parking, and head toward Voller Athletic Center.  I'll post signs/people from there in to BT's.
2.) Friday night we'll be having a TEAMS Sealed tournament.  If anyone wants to show up for that, let me know, and I'll arrange a place for you to stay.
3.) I may not have enough promos!  My playgroup has grown, which is great, but don't worry, I'll make sure anyone from off-campus gets one before those on campus.
4.) Somehow, Rob missed that we were doing TEAMS at this district, so I don't have Redemption Cash or a TxP card for that category.  I'll provide it out-of-pocket, and try to make that up.

Hey,

What time do you want us there? 10 right?  Any cards that people are looking for that I should bring, otherwise I will probably just bring my decks.

God Bless,
Rob M
