Columbus, Ohio 43214
If you need to car pool to Columbus, post your needs and we'll find someone whom you can travel with. I'll start a signup if necessary.
PROXIES: UNLIMITED PROXIES will be permitted.
There are THREE ways of making proxies:
1) The first and most basic is taking a basic land card and writing the details of the card on it. 2) The second method is to take a card that shares some of the characteristics with the card that is being proxied and erase any characteristics that do not match, replacing them with the correct characteristics. See: http://forums.starcitygames.com/viewtopic.php?t=291560 for more detaiils on how to do this.
3) the third is to print out all 75 cards, and slip the sheet of paper into each sleeve. If you do this, every card must be proxied. The first two methods are preferred.
ALSO,Collector's Edition and International Edition cards will be legal for this tournament. If you intend on running CE or IE cards, you MUST:
1) use completely opaque sleeves, AND
2) Double Sleeve your card OR use a looser fitting sleeves where the cut of the corner of the card is not visible. Otherwise, you must replace your sleeves before the top 8.
WHEN: Sunday, February 20, 2011
The store opens at 11:30 AM. Registration starts at 12:30. Registration will close and the tournament begins at 1PM sharp. To save time, consider typing or writing up your decklist ahead of time.
FINALLY, don't miss our post-game chowdown at Thurmans.
Put the address in your GPS so you can get there after the tournament!
This tournament will be great fun, good laughs, and amazing times.
I hope to see serracollector, the Moore Brothers, and Paul Kim, among others. Please post if you are coming so we can try to make sure everyone has a ride.
