Rockin' the Friday prerelease again eh?

Cool. That's a family member's birthday, so we prob. can't get to that one, but I'll see what's up with the other 3.

We want to really get in on this set because it's the historical introduction of the NEW Pokemon.

My leaguers look forward to Midlo, but on a Friday night ... :/

Thanks for the head's up info though man. I was waiting for this :)
 
I will bring the masses of the Jefferson Gym to Warrenton to experience the new generation of Pokemon play.

With help.

Couldn't be helped, RA. Pokemon on Easter Sunday just wouldn't do.
 
On topic, please folks. Please use PMs for stuff not related to the general topic at hand. TUVM!
 
Been seeing a lot of info out now that the BW theme decks and tins are out. I suggest that all players keep whatever BW cards they've received at home until 4/25. You won't be able to use them at tournies until that date, so don't risk an illegal deck penalty!
 
how are you going to stop this? Person a brings cards from another tournament that he went to and goes to bath room and switches cards with his cards he pulled out of the other 6 packs he just got for the tournament...or are we to record what we got...Cause with this many tournaments one could be sure to cheat and have a premade deck..I know we wouldn't want that and would like everyone to be honest...just saying.

That's why there aren't any prizes for winning prereleases anymore. Sure, someone could cheat, but why?
 
ALL participants receive 2 additional packs at the conclusion of their rounds. Been that way since I've been doing prereleases (ex Delta Species was my first set)
And prereleases do NOT count toward premier ratings.
But, if you (not, "you" Rodney, just a generic "you") are caught cheating, it is going to be reported to TCPi and could very well result in some action on their part, up to and possibly including, a ban..
