[Announcement ] Legacy - 07/19/08; Syracuse, New York; $1000 cash prize Legacy

[Bryant Cook]

I'm not sure why Pre-Registration was ended, but when I called to Pre-register myself and four others today I was told I couldn't. That $25 in savings would have put a sizeable dent in the $80 projected gas costs it's going to take for us to get there from Connecticut. I guess we can bring bagged lunches instead of eating out

Or suck it up. It's five dollars.

[Michael Keller]

Don't feel bad. I live ten minutes away and I didn't pre-reg.

At any rate, I'm curious how the prize structure for this event will pan out. If there's enough people, prizes should be altered and potentially given to top 16. We'll see.

[Wallace]

Just so all of the out-of-towner's know, bring your EDH and/or Skittles decks. We have several people here who will have there's.

[Nightmare]

I have approximately half the state of Massachussettes in my apartment right now. God are they a loud, smelly bunch. Fortunately I've barricaded myself in my air-conditioned bedroom, so I'm safe.

[Di]

I wasn't going to bring this up at the store today, but there was most definetely a smell of bad gamer. Usually our store doesn't have this, so I'm blaming Massachusetts. Figure out which one of you(s) it is, and fucking solve that problem.

6. Rodney Hannigan - Dreadstill

Suck it, New York.

[Whit3 Ghost]

Canadian Thresh. Straight up best deck in the format.
However, Ichorid is a rough matchup and by far Dave's worst in the Top8.

My calls are this: If Dave wins round one, I've got him taking it home, if not, I'm going with Bryant.

[Maagler]

My bet is that Rodney goes all the way.

Updates?

Bryant Cook ftw.

[Whit3 Ghost]

Bryant Cook ftw.

Details or was that a prediction?

[cwt1220]

Just hoping, we were the only TES decks i think.

[Deep6er]

OK, so I just got back.

I walked away with 125 dollars. It was a good run, expect a tournament report.

By the way, It's the Fear. Fucking awesome.
