[Black and Blue]

Official number - 119 persons in attendance and playing:-)

Scratch that... 127 total!!!

[DeathwingZERO]

Wow, kick ass attendance. We got any idea who ended up traveling the farthest? Anybody from West Coast or EU show up?

[Pinder]

Wow. That's a huge number. A lot more than I expected, actually. That's totally awesome.

So, pairings for round 1?

Relax, even if they post the pairings for round 1 six hours from now they'll still be faster than WOTC....zing!

Being faster at reporting than Wizards is like being the smartest kid in a rumedial school or the gold medalist in the special olympics.

You sir have insulted our dedicated and hard working olympians.

[Jak]

I just had the most fun taking hours of tests. Any updates???

I should probably link the thread I made to discuss the 5 Year Tourney and the 5 Year Anniversary of the Source in general.

Oh, and no.

You sir have insulted our dedicated and hard working olympians.

Only the retarded ones.

[Soto]

So should we start planning for a 6th year mtgTheSource tourney?!

We could do an anniversary tourney every year, I suppose. Wouldn't be as big as this one, though, definitely. And the annviersary might not always land on a good date. But maybe we'll just do it the nearest Saturday or something. I dunno.

Wouldn't really be up to me, though.

[Deep6er]

OK, so I'm reporting from the event.

Guy who traveled farthest: Mayk (technically from the Netherlands)

I'm out at 1-3. I only played tribal decks. All four matches. Beatings. Merfolk, Goblins, Slivers, Goblins. No lie, I thought about playing Plague before today too. :(

Still looking at about 100 people. Not too many drops with prizes going to sixteen.

We had a large room in the beginning, but after four rounds, he had to move down to a room that was a quarter the size. Beatings. Also the vendor didn't show up.

Anyway, there will be more to come from me.

Keep on watching. I'll report every round and in between rounds for interesting things.

EDIT: If somebody gets pissed about me double posting, deal with it.

[Pinder]

Sweet, thanks. Also SLIVERS!

Anyone we know playing it?

[kilukru]

Live fead is great, I cannot chat due to firewall... dam i must start going to the states more often to get to know you guy's lol!

[Pinder]

By the way, Dave just gave us a digital high five through the feed. It was the single greatest moment of my entire day.

It was awesome.

I aim to please. Just ask for more, and I'll be happy to oblige.

Also, Team America is totally 4-0 going into game 2 against White Ghost and he's up game one.

There was one guy playing Slivers who I know of. He did not do so well, and I can't find anybody else playing Slivers.

Any other questions?
