Okay, the day has arrived--Friday, August 29, at 10pm in the Cottontree.
Coming as normal:
(These people will play for free and take home the common or uncommon of their choice at the end of the night)
Fellfrosch
Prometheus
Tiger
Spriggan
Brenna
GuJiaXian
Maybe not coming and/or staying the whole time:
(We'll find out when we get there)
42
EUOL
Coming and bringing their own packs:
(They'll write down their cards as they open each pack, to make sure they get them back at the end of the night.)
The Megan formerly known as Schoonover
Megan's husband J.T.
Interested in playing if possible:
Lieutenant Kije
So what this means is that we'll probably have more than 8 people. 42 is leaving early and might decide to either play or just watch, and EUOL might be getting there late if he has a hot date, which would put him out of contention. If one (or both, I suppose) of them is gone, Kije is in. If Kije or anyone else would like to buy their own packs, he's more than welcome to jump in no matter how many people show up (so bring your wife, Kije). 8 is the ideal size for a tournament draft, but I don't think it will screw us up too much to have a slightly larger group. And if the "buy your packs" idea works out, we can do drafts more often.
