Excellent. I may be bringing a friend who does not have a DCI number. Does he need to apply online before showing up to the tourny?

He can fill out a card at the store and jump right in. Edit: Oops. For the thing on the 6th he might want to do it online just to be safe. You could e-mail Jim to see if he will have cards with him (or I can).

Looking forward to tomorrow's sealed event. Anyone out there coming tomorrow? Or to the one next week at Castle?

I wasn't able to make the one on the 6th because my daughter was in the hospital and my grandmother died. But barring anything else, I will most definitely be there on the 13th.

Any ideas on the projected numbers for this weekend? I am thinking about making the drive over there, but not if its just going to be 3 or 4 people. And what is the prize?

We had 15 players at the last one. Jim even played this time out. This one I'm not sure. I know my son and I can't make this one. Valentine's weekend plus my mother-in-law's birthday means I will be gone all day Saturday. I know Carl, Seth, David, and Matt are for sure going. I know there were some that could not make the last one either so hopefully they show. Scott said if there are at least 8 people he is throwing in a case of prize support and I think the half left over from the other tourney. So if 8 show there is going to be some nice prizes for them to share.

Hopefully we'll get at least 8. I still need 4 VR's to complete my set.

Any update on numbers? It is a 2-hour drive for me and I'm not gonna go all the way over there if it's not going to happen. Scott has never seemed very appreciative of those of us who make the long-distance drive just to play a couple of games and give him money.

Boris,
Six so far confirmed from here, then one "probably", a kid who sometimes brings another kid with him.
I have not received any negative responses yet (other than Mickey on here, and a couple folks at last week's event who don't play that often in general).
Don't know about Jim. I'd say we have a good shot at making the 8 players needed to have a case for prizes. It could easily turn into more like 12 players.
We will have the tourney even if it just the 6 confirmed, just means we won't get a full case for prizes.

I have:
Matt, Carl, Seth, Kristin, Anthony, myself, probably Jason (and maybe Aaron?).
Anybody else?

Sorry about that, I misread the email. Hopefully we'll get eight.

Sorry I wasn't able to make it over today. The wife wanted to go out for Valentine's today instead of tomorrow. I'm looking forward to Egyptian Campaign, or whatever it's being called these days!
