***CARD SLEEVES ARE A MUST FOR ALL EVENTS. NO EXCEPTIONS. (http://www.cactusgamedesign.com/message_boards/redemption-tournaments/tournament-decks-must-be-sleeved-32940/)
If you wish to purchase sleeves at Nats, they are officially available from the Covenant Games corner.***
*******************
A. Procedures and changes to be implemented at Nats 2013 are hereunder specified:
1. Opaque (non-transparent back) card sleeves are a must for all events - no exception.
2. T1 Multi-Player is moved to Thursday. With the new starters taking their first official Nats debut and to give chance for T1 players to play an event they can better afford on Day 1, thus this change.
3. Type 1 2-Player Swiss Style / Top Cut System: 7 rounds of Swiss + Top Cut (Stand by for details)
4. Revised Type 1 Teams Rules/Procedures: Click Here (http://www.angelfire.com/ok/furrow/teams-newrules.html)
5. Per Rob Anderson, new 2013 Starter decks will be used for Sealed Deck. No Sites are allowed for tournament play (since the I/J starters do not have them)
6. New 2013 Tin will be sold at Nats but not used for Booster Draft (Enhanced Traditional Booster Draft will be implemented).
7. Option: Pre-Approved Official Local Tournament on August 9 : This will be for those who wish to do this event while Top Cut moves on.
EVENT: $12 Booster Draft SPECIAL EDITION (only the newest tin will be used --- No extra packs will be added); T1 2P and T1 Multi are available options for those who wish to play them at $2 entry fee per event.
RNRS -- rankings and RNRS valid only for next tournament season 2013-2014
8. Players must wear issued tournament badges when playing official games at all times, ensuring badges are easily visible for recognition. No badge, no play.
