Are you guys interested in us hosting a real DCI (one on one) tournament? If so, we can arrange a DCI referee and sponsorship.

Let me know so I can guage interest.

I think it might be a good way of attracting more player to the club, to run the occasional sanctioned event.

I would personally recommend either a draft or an Extended constrcuted event.

The club could acquire boxes of cards for use in a draft from milsims at a pretty good discount, keeping the draft price down.

Extended is a format that many new players are willing to play, plus you crusties get to use 'some' of your older cards.

Sealed deck is another option. Not sure if you can buy bulk tournament packs from mil sims though.

[Chealkey]

You know after looking at the rules for extended I realised I have about 50 cards to make my deck with

If you saw how many card I have you would not believe it....

My vote is for a Legacy or Vintage... but then again I'm biased ;D

P.S. Don't want to be buying any new cards if I can get away with it

For a smaller one, the cllub could buy a few dozen boosters, make each player pay a share of the price of the boosters. then, the boosters are distributed, with each person taking one card from each booster (more, if less players or more boosters), and passing it on. everyone gets appropriate land cards, and everyone has a grand old time, keeping the cards they got.

Called a booster draft Weevil. I see keith said their is a booster box for cheap. Maybe we should give it a go. I'd be in on it

[cleverfellow]

Me too.

Just not sure if 'the club' has a spare $100 to add to the mil sims order, which is all 36 core game boosters would cost right now...

What is all this new Technology rubbish?

I'll take on any new comers with my Homelands level cards.

What say you Chealkey?

We don't need no stinking Indestructible Lands!

Tasking you, one and all.

I like the red

What is this indestructible land???

That's just not cricket

Ah for the good old days...

I think I'll just stick to vintage format

Yeah... Wizard Vs Wizard in the only way MTG should be played... DUEL (don't get me wrong melee is... well interesting). But nothing beats a straight out duel. And the only way to play it is Vintage (1.5), new-tech cards suck, I mean they're just the same mechanics with different names. Besides who wants to buy more Magic cards now, doesn't Wizards have more than enough money already?

[Chealkey]

I’d have to disagree with you, while I like making decks for duals I actually prefer to play in grand melees.

They are two totally different games and a good duel deck doesn’t usually transfer into a good melee deck.

I design my decks with 60, 80 or 120 cards and I like to be a bit quirky wit my designs I just play for fun I gave up being competitive a looong time ago.

P.S: my pet hate is affinity.

[cleverfellow]

Yeah, for one-on-one games I'd much rather be playing Sealed Deck or Draft.

For constructed, melee is good fun, and as Chealkey said, it requires different decks (so you get to use more of your cards!)

[shags]

Plus in melee it matters very little wether your playing with old mechanics or new mechanics. There is such a mix that everyone is screwed!!!

I think the new technologies are faiirly weak compared to things like shadow and poison (not that i bear grudges or anything;)

[keithdone]

Yeah...we bear no grudges against Shadow.....

Really.....

Shadow is cool..........

Go Shadow...........
