Urza, many of us are already not too enthusiastic about Compleat. Though Lipsky obviously shouldn't spread intentionally false information, I'm not sure it will make that large of an impact in terms of who chooses to go back to play, and who doesn't.

It at least provides options. Maybe one night the drive to store a seems to far. Now they will know that at least there is another option.

You're a liar, Lipsky. The FNM scene at compleat will be revived and they will also soon be sanctioned. Ty doesn't want to work with you, so don't get mad and come on here calling for it to end. I was there with Ashby last night and he was talking to us about what he expects to happen. He will be getting magic back there and expects sanctioning to be happening soon since it's already in the works. He is also getting offers from other people to run it. He doesn't expect everyone to come back and he is also aware that it is going to take some time, but he is expecting to draw a more casual type crowd for FNM's like it was when there was a north store. So just because you wont be associated with it anymore doesn't mean it's done and there wont be anymore magic there, saying so is frankly irresponsible and a disservice to this magic community. Eric and his son went to Petries last night hoping to draft, but they were doing constructed. Once Compleat gets it's sanctioning they can hold drafts again for people like them. So at this point I think you should stop spreading intentionally false statements which might get around and hurt their chances of coming back.
I am not mad about anything, i didnt arrive until after Ty left for the night so i was not able to speak with him about anything. Jamie was working and told me that the tournaments will not be sanctioned that he knows of.

I am simply going on the knowledge that i have. If you have talked to Ty then you have more knowledge of the subject than i do but i hardly think comeing on here and thinking i am getting mad.

I fully support Complete in getting there magic scene up and running, but as you can ask anybody in the community i rarely if ever get time for FNM's anymore. I hope that the torunaments will return so that i will have a place to play when i do get the free time.

I don't know myself. Last night the overall community tried Petries (sp) and it was ok. 27 players signed up for constructed with about 7-8 casual players showing up with EDH/Legacy decks that didn't play. Frank G went down to Pueblo (too far for me) and I still haven't heard from him about it. I'm going to hang out at either Pac and Ship or Compleat South today and get a vibe. It seems both of those stores have more room though. Petries felt like a can of sardines and this is coming from a skinny guy.

@ Tony: When you coming back to Magic bro? Was hoping to see you last night.

I've been meaning to start playing again pretty much every Friday since Christmas... I keep telling Ricky I'll be there, and end up not being able to work out for someone to watch my son, so don't end up going. Such is life :(

Gamers Haven has cleared out half of their back space and plan to clear out more to the second bathroom for FNM. They will start this friday at 6:30pm. For the pre-release they will have product and space for 60+ players. This place seems to have the most potential than the other stores as the owner, Rob, is willing to give more space to FNM as we progress. Store credit at GH will go farther as their game selection covers almost everything.

Do they let us play it out, top 4 split or what? Personally, I don't want to leave right after 5 rounds of swiss.

Also welcome to the forums Josh. :)

5. Gamers Haven, Havent been there since the mana slingers showdown, but the guy was really nice and the space was awesome. Anyone been by to see if he would be willing to run the magic events with the tournout they were having at waystone or if they are willing to have prize supported fnms?



Just an FYI -- Amy Sawyer-Hammond will be the FNM Tournament Organizer @ Gamer's Haven.

In your opinion. I've never been a fan of just splitting. I'm a sport so I go along with it. :)

Hey maybe they can split top 4 instead of playing out the Super Bowl! That's the best possible option. ;)

In the end, the other stores do it too so I'm down with this with whatever. I haven't heard anything bad so far and it's not far either.


@ Chris: Did you call me "Tom Luke" in that pod cast I listened to earlier? Come on man. :-/
:P

Is Petries playing out a top 8? I know I talked to J and J&Js and he says he will play out a top 8 if that is what the people want, and if there are enough people, but currently they hold a draft directly after the Standard FnM.

People are throwing out options, you can make your decision based off them. Complaining about them does nothing really.

Not to mention, at Waystone, it was ALWAYS top 4 split, even when you were in the top 4, and you never really complained about it there. One time I discussed not splitting and Tony tried to make up new rules on the fly. :P
