Please post here or send a PM to Reth if you are interested in participating.

I'm interested - thanks!!

Cool!

I'd offer at least T1 2P - no time limit and officially banned cards are banned in online games too.

Would there be any other category (besides Teams, Multi and Drafting) which would be of interested or which several participants would like to play?
I liked T Half quite much (also due to shorter games and different challanges regarding deck building) but I don't think that this format is still a viable one due to all these new cards not really fitting in there (reducing hand size permanently etc.).

What about a "Starters Category" where only starters G to J can be chosen for playing (also G vs G, J vs J etc. is possible - do not know whether such kind of format already exists or has a name)?

Please tell me your opinions/whishes then we'll see how to deal with.

Please sent me your proposals/wishes for other categories (besides the ones I mentioned and similar ones since I think those are hard to align [e.g. for multiplayer] take too much time [e.g. drafting])!

Hey Reth, TEAMS should be doable.

Also if you want to run a sealed event (each player starts with an I or J starter) plus three packs of their choice I can help facilitate that.

Thank you! Don't think that we get enough players for a team category.

What is the promo for nationals?

I'm assuming these will not be available for those playing online since it's an unofficial tournament, but if you're looking for info about the 2019 Offline Official National Tournament, you can find that here.

  Althought I don't care about getting them from playing, they did give them out last year to us.

That would be awesome if we could get the promos! And I'd be good with any events but T2-2P and booster are my favorites 

  I don't know how to do booster or sealed I know there is a tutorial but I'd be down to do booster/sealed.

I need to check again after reading the tutorial but IMO drafting on Lackey is very time consuming and might have other disadvantages (need to read that tutorial again).

For drafting, you can always do the draft portion itself out-of-band (i.e., the night before or whatever). It is kind of a bonus gaming session! The only real drawback to boosting in Lackey is if someone makes a mistake or a player's session gets disconnected during the draft.

There is an easy way and a not-so-hard way to run a sealed event depending on if you completely trust players not to cheat in the deck building or want a bit of control around it. The easy (trust everyone) way could be done in game. In the more controlled version, you simply send players their packs ahead of time and verify that only the sent cards are in the final decklist. Since I won't be playing, I would be happy to facilitate a sealed session.

Just started to read the LackeyCCG booster draft tutorial - does this mean by deleting the packs folder I will "only" have the maybe outdated pack folder from that tutorial - not being able to use all the latest cards anymore (if not saving current packs folder)?

And isn't DC pile visible to all players by default? Maybe better using reserve pile instead?

Thank you! - And also thanks for running it last year! 

Any further participants?

I'm interested...but August 1st and 2nd are both very busy days for me.  It would help me if I have some notice on what time of day (EST time) the categories will each be playing at.

I am especially interested in the Starter Deck category and the Booster Draft. I like things pretty simple haha.

OK. So up to date we'd have the following categories and participants:

T1 2P:

• jesse
• SiLeNcEd_MaTrIx
• Reth

Booster (if happening):

• jesse
• SiLeNcEd_MaTrIx
• Jaydog1616
• Reth

Starters G to J:

• Jaydog1616
• Reth

For T2 only jesse applied so that category cannot start due to lack of players.
