You're kidding me. PM it to me and i'll see if i mistyped it. Either way i'll update my email list with yours. I just checked and i do have an email for you so either it's wrong or you don't check that one. I prefer to believe it is the latter. :tongue:

Oh, did you know ANOTHER National champion goes to League? :thumb:
 
Friday - League! Cake? Trophy! ProJo reporter? Knife. plates, forks? RR Decks!

Saturday - Stephen's Birthday party! No Pokémon for us :(

Sunday - Stephen's off to Yawgoog - send him a card/letter! It's also his birthday. And PokeMeBob's! And Dylan's!
 
Hey Brian and fellpw Rhodies, long time no see! Tomorrow is my birthday party too! Yay! I forgot that Steven and I were born just a day apart, right? Anyway I'm going to be really busy cooking and all for the party but I want to show up at league tonight. You see I have three Snorlax Xs and 3 Wash Rotoms to trade...and those are the only two Xs and Rotoms respectively that we have actually. Not sure how that one worked out but oh well. Also, I need to test a new deck out and Brett made a deck that he's not happy about: Speedrill.

Back to back posts merged. The following information has been added:

So around 5:30 or so we were getting things ready and stepping into the car when my aunt and uncle pull into the driveway in a station wagon, broken lawnmower in tow. Suffice to say we got tied up and I ended up cooking dinner for us--Peijing wontons. I guess it's swell and all that they came over seeing as we don't see them that often, and they are a blast really, but I was looking forward to league this week.

Oh well, that's what happened. But we'll be there next week!!:biggrin:

Hello, everyone. Just wanted to post here and ask you guys a few questions if I could.

I've been to the store many times in the past for various magic tournaments and I really enjoy the place. Most of my good friends have quit magic and have moved onto bigger and better things. My bestfriend wants to get back into Pokemon, never playing magic himself, and I was just wondering if him and myself would feel awkward. I am pretty sure he doesn't care but I am 22 and have a hard time believing that we will find other players our age (he is 18). To me, magic was such a money sink and without any close friends to enjoy it with...well I wouldn't be able to enjoy it. Plus, I have a 6 month old daughter now and money isn't as expendable as it used to be.

What do you guys think I should do? Should I pack up the backpack and head there with my friend to see how it is or should I just quit now before I sink any money into it? Thanks for any advice.
 
Any legal card is allowed at League. You might have problems if you wish to play in the premier events but that's a horse of a different color. So once you own a card, you can play it at League forever.

Gino, Jon, Alex, Hanaan, Con, Tony, Mama Rock, Marc, Dan, Meg, & Josh are just some of the players who are in the Masters division (15 & up). You might be lucky enough to hit a night Brian shows up.

And you would have fun playing against Aylam.
 
Thanks for the quick response, BJ. I was looking at some pics from worlds 08 on this site and could clearly spot a few fellows my age as well as some much older. I guess I shouldn't fear feeling awkward at the age difference but should still be careful about stepping on little kids...kinda hard to see em sometimes when you're 6'3'' lol.

Do you guys do a lot of play testing for premier events at leagues? I know which sets are currently legal for modified constructed, I believe that is what its called, and plan on making a deck after buying a couple of boxes and some singles.

What are these TJ's parties that you speak of? I've been to TJ's, too, but just for premier magic events.

Any store around here doing a Supreme Victors prerelease?

Opps, also forgot to ask about drafting. I loved drafting magic but I am not too sure if its as common place in pokemon as it is in magic. If you guys draft, how do you guys run it? Keep what you draft? Picks of rares and holos after double elim?

The people mentioned above do lots of play testing for premiere events. That's how 4 of my regular Leaguers got invites to Worlds.

Last Saturday Tom threw a party for the great New England players. In all honesty i expected a bigger turn out - many of the locals did not come. Cake and Pokémon - what could be better? Oh, add friendship to the mix.

What for the announcement in the Prerelease forum - PokeDaddy usually posts them. DH will be doing one FRIDAY NIGHT!!!!!!

Drafts are run after the Prerelease main event. $25. 6 packs. Keep what you draft. Build a 40 card deck (basic energy supplied, just return at the end). We try to get pods of 8 (but we can go larger). Try to get youngsters in one and oldsters in another. If 8, 3 rounds of Swiss. 8/4/2/2 for prize support.
