Sorry for the delayed report but here it is!

We had 16 players show up and donate a box of diapers to battle some Vintage in celebration of the impending birth of Nat and Elizabeth’s son.

Diapers

Custom onesie!

It's a boy!

Guess the melted candy bar!

Balloon bellies!

After 5 rounds of Swiss +1, the top 4 were as follows:

1. David Lance - Survival - 5-0
2. Steve McGrew - Paradoxical Outcome - 4-1
3. Nam Tran - Ravager Shops - 3-2

Whoa, congrats Nat!

[GrandpaBelcher]

Hey, thanks @craw_advantage! And thanks @nartman99 for putting the writeup together!

The whole event was a lot of fun. I'm of the opinion that more Magic players need to be more friends and family in one anothers' lives. It was great to have everyone come and celebrate the occasion and share in the excitement that Elizabeth and I have. I'll look forward to the next time, whoever we'll be celebrating and whatever event.

We're also going to have a Serious Vintage episode coming out that will include some of this. (We've been behind on recording, but I've had a good excuse.)
