Why is it that nearly everyone misspells my name?
Perhaps it is some bizarre coincidence that I have used both Drackmere and Drakemere as character names back in my high school D&D days.
Well, since I have been the League Leader, we have put a good amount of emphasis trying to get original players (that is, players with primarily Base Set through Team Rocket cards) involved once again in the league, collecting, and the game itself.
In other words, all of our League nights are Unlimited in format, with some special activities here and there. To further try to match this goal, most of our Tournaments would typically be Unlimited format to encourage the original players to attend/participate.
We do make attempts to get the newer cards in the hands of the original players through events like booster drafts, trading sessions, and so forth, so there is a good likelihood of seeing a Modified tournament in the future at some point.
As for the video games, to this point we have not had any real video game events, but I am looking to change this. Mayhem Collectibles is a local game/hobby shop, and since it does not carry video games or systems, we typically only see a random GBA show up now and again. I have picked up a copy of Ruby and am trying to learn some of the finer points now that I have defeated the elite four and so forth. My guess is that video game events, when they occur, will probably match the typical format used for video game events.
I hope this answers your questions; feel free to contact me or post here if you have any more questions/comments/suggestions.
