GenCon Hype Train!
-
GenCon starts this week. I'm showing up and staying with the TeamSerious squad, and I've been looking forward to it all year :D
I won't be playing any MtG personally, but I wouldn't be shocked if some other vintage players were making the trip.
Is anyone else going?
Should we meet up for food and/or drinks and chat about the format we all love? (or at least, the format we can't stop playing).
Should we meet up for food and/or drinks and NOT chat about the format we all love?
Anyone interested in board game testing or late-night werewolfing? Maybe some degenerate cube drafting?
-
I am coming. I am bringing a common uncommon cube for fun and enjoyment, as well as, whiskey to be shared within reason. I am happy to meet up for food too!
-
Choo choo, motherfuckers.
-
Had to bail due to lack of a place to stay :(
Have fun ya'll!

GenCon!!!!

Oh yeah. 2 Vintage Trials are taking place. So hopefully once again I can win a bye that I will set ablaze in a few months. Gencon is notoriously an Caligulian Orgy of Oath decks so I may have to break out Sabboth Oath Crusher again. I'll have a couple of of Vintage decks on hand @Brass-Man if you want to scratch the itch.

I'm not going to GenCon itself but I live about a half an hour away; if there are any after hours Vintage I'm down. I might have to see if I can borrow a badge to play in a trial.

Don't bother. The bye will go to the name on the badge.

Also shameless plug. If you are looking for some heroic Marvel miniatures action I am running a FASERIP Tactics Friday A.M.
It's a tactical minis game based on the old school Marvel SHRPG from the 80's before the internet ruined the world.

I had assumed it would go to the name I gave with DCI #, but the more I thought about it I don't want to do that because there could be a risk of my friend being 86'ed from GenCon or (possibly?) DCI sanctions against me.

Yeah I wouldn't go down that road. You could maybe use generic event tickets. Get into the hall on a badge, but it'd be depressing to go 4-0 and get it thrown out. I don't think you'd be in hot water with the DCI given you entered the event on your own but only badge holders are supposed to enter events or buy generics. All of this is the reason it's great champs was excavated from Gencon. It's a pain in the ass to get to and organize.

Packed the same two bad decks to lose with as GP Vegas. I figure I can rage quit and go spend my bonus on dumb old cards and St. Elmo's.
-
When are the vintage events? I'm not playing but I definitely want to stop by and check them out
-
Friday at 6, and Saturday at 2. Sorta bummed they only have two. But hey, it's Pastimes. We'll be lucky if the building isn't on fire.

So my Android tablet version of Chrome actually types everything backwards in the compose window. I wasn't drunk when I typed this.

@nedleeds that makes your response much less interesting
