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.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #102 on:** January 25, 2011, 06:07:00 PM »

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.)

@SoulSeeker
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.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #105 on:** February 14, 2011, 09:18:44 PM »

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

KingArv · « **Reply #106 on:** February 15, 2011, 02:26:42 PM »

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.

However, I would prefer if you slid the T2 2P to go against Teams otherwise I have to go hunt for a partner.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #109 on:** February 15, 2011, 04:13:44 PM »

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?

soul seeker · « **Reply #110 on:** February 15, 2011, 04:18:50 PM »

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.

SomeKittens · « **Reply #111 on:** February 15, 2011, 04:25:02 PM »

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?

SomeKittens · « **Reply #113 on:** February 15, 2011, 11:16:45 PM »

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.

soul seeker · « **Reply #114 on:** February 15, 2011, 11:57:26 PM »

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).

SomeKittens · « **Reply #115 on:** February 16, 2011, 10:22:54 AM »

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

Hey guys I will be able to come from start till about 2:00pm. Looking forward to it. Where on campus is it and where do I park?

SomeKittens · « **Reply #117 on:** February 27, 2011, 09:31:40 PM »

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.

robm · « **Reply #118 on:** March 04, 2011, 07:24:17 PM »

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

I almost thought to add a bit about "SoulSeeker can fix these with his massive Mod powers"
