Women + Angel Wars + Disciples can lead to a lot of sites floating around, actually. I often get upwards of 5 and I don't generally draft sites unless there's nothing else in that pack I want (I even draft for my collection before sites sometimes, lol).

My son always drafts every site he can, that way he can draft less defense.

Well, if this is the ruling, then so be it. I'll let my players know!  ;D

(not that my opinion is worth 1/320000th of an ounce of gold).

Though I disagree with the sentiment...I see what you did there.  ;)

It seems there are a lot of Regional variations of Booster Draft. Like Bryon said, most of the restrictive rules (like no more sites than LS's, no multicolor duplicates or dominant duplicates, etc.) rarely come into play, but in most of the tournies I've been to, BD decks are just checked by the people at your table counting your cards face down, and checking the number of LS's (face up). Which means that we typically go by if you draft it, you can use it. I think that's for the best as well.

Ironically, I did it wrong. I should have put 1/80000th of an ounce of gold. I really should not have stayed up all day and night Friday and Saturday for Southeast Regionals.  :sleepy:2

I was actually wondering why you had chosen half a cent as your reference, instead of the more standard 2 cents. But from recent threads, it seems you strive to live pretty cheaply, so maybe you let that influence your comment.

That's the beauty of being the teacher - I can make mistakes but play them off as either intentional quirkiness or planned teachable moments.

So have these questions been answered definitively?
