Ah, the Source. We certainly have come a long way, haven't we old chaps? Why, I remember back five years ago when this place was just a...oh wait, I joined 3 years ago, when The Source was already a bustling metropolis of Legacy tech.
Oh well. At any rate, congratulations to the Source for running 5 years strong, a big thanks to the staff that work day in and day out to keep it that way, and all the great members that make this site way more enjoyable than any other Magic forum on the web.
But I'm sure the real reason we're all here is to see what happens with this tourney. 127 people, my God. This is going to be awesome. I figured the announcement thread was cluttered enough, so starting a new thread to discuss things as they're happening/post pairings and feature matches/etc. would be good.
So, let's discuss.

Or is it Swiss+1, then cut to top8?
edit - And for those of you who are wondering, yes, I'm going to live in this thread today. At least while I'm at work, for the next seven and a half hours or so.

I still hate the fact I have my parents in law over here for a 2-week visit, while my wife was actually fine with me comming over.

Always looking for sealed product!
Oh my God. Thank you for linking that picture site. I didn't even know it was up. This is awesome.
edit - It's interesting how even though they got a bigger room, they're still all bunched up on the side.
I guess this way they have extra space on the floor in case people suddenly want to dance?

where did they find a bigger room at?
I thought you were there? Either way, I dunno.
Also, the Announcement thread says it was slated to start at 11am EST. It's currently 2:47 pm EST. Even with a late start, we should be into the second round at least, right?
Our hearts cry out for results!

I expect soooo much video coverage now.
The live video thing for the past few minutes has been a rough view of people playing, and much the people getting in the way of the camera with torso shots and middle fingers.
Not sure it's going to provide much "coverage" that we'd be seeking, lol.
There's a live video thing? Where?

CDR just put up a new thread with it. Go check it out.
Nice. And it has a chat, too. Can't wait for feature matches.

anniversary of the start of something = birthday right?
(I kind of expected NM to lock this right as I try to post. Kind of like talking about Candleja-
Referring to the art on Stasis:
Thanks to everyone who helps make this place the way it is - mods, adepts, and everyone else. You're all great (well, enough of you anyways). Here's to another great 5 years and more.
I remember back in the day when Worldgorger dragon was played and ATS...and...Food Chain Goblins! And how people played stax with workshops XD.
Fucking sweet! Thanks to everyone for the awesome, SOURCE!
I thought we didn't do birthday threads
Congrats you guys
If it walks like a duck and talks like a duck, it's probably delicious.
Team ADHD-To resist is to piss in the wind. Anyone who does will end up smelling.
I'm posting to see how long I've been here. Then I'll say something good.
EDIT: Wow, 2 and a half years. Maybe because this is the most interesting forum I've ever been on, and it's just a bonus that it's about Magic. I wonder why (I think) I'm the only guy from my country actively posting here. Well, besides Radley, but he's inactive now.
Anyway, congrats to the Source. I hope I'll be able to rack up more tournament experience so I can contribute more here.
The Source: Your Source for "The Source: Your Source for..." cliche.
I can't express in this borrowed language how awesome you guys are.
Keep on making this an elitist, safe, Cavius-free enviroment!
We tried to copy the Source, but then we realized we're spanish
If my post results dumb or offensive, it's probably just me miserably failing at being ironic in a foreign language
I just got into the format a year ago and I must say this site is a goldmine of information and a geat place to discuss this great thing we have here. Here's to many more years!!!!!!
TEAM AWESOME
Well, at least we smell better
