Re: Worlds 2014 info thread
I'm really looking forward to it! Two full days of playing cards.
I'm trying to decide what events to play in.
The one deck game, I'm still struggling to put together a deck to play.
I think I want to play in the Lidless Eye sealed deck, but I will have to bring my book because otherwise, I won't know what most of the cards actually say.
I was considering bowing out of the actual tournament on Saturday and playing in the Challenge deck tournament so I don't embarrass myself. But I've decided to say heck with it. I will just be embarrassed. I have to be able to say I played in a world championship tournament.
Anybody else? What are you planning on doing?

Re: Worlds 2014 info thread
To the thread above I do not know about deciding over one game or the other. I like to play
as much as possible.
Dumb Question but it will help with the amount I am packing:
Will bath towels be provided? I know this is a mansion and not a hotel, but
packing bath towels will take up space in my single luggage bag that I could use for cards; I pack lighter than Bilbo.
Thank you.

Towels will certainly be provided. 
We're allowed to arrive at the mansion starting at 3 PM. Please no one bother the host until then.

I have finally finished packing. I have Brian's decks, which he forced me to build and bring for him. If you want to know in advance what he's playing so you can meta-game him, send me a PM.

Unless, of course, marcos does sell all his clothing to go. 

Remember, NetRep rulings are official. This does not necessarily mean they are correct.
You probably aren't playing Fallen Wizards correctly. This prompted the backlash erratum that I will link to as soon as I notice it is officially posted.

It was great to stop by even for a couple of hours. Great event and a lot of fun. Here are some photos I took - http://elvenforest.narod.ru/meccg/World ... index.html

Re: Worlds 2014 info thread
Brief report from yesterday. The final four after yesterday's four rounds were Wolfgang playing a Balrog deck; Joe playing a fallen wizard, Mark Playing a hero deck and Sauron playing a minion deck. I'm not exactly sure that was the order they were in. So they are playing round robin in the finals today, but I'm not there. I will file report and photographs at a later date. It was a very good time. I'm really an Arda fan after this event. So much fun and so thematic.
More later.

This was my first tournament. I had fun. Well organized and friendly; just left my cards out and went to bed.
Lesson Learn: If there is any issue of a card's effect than ask an expert
before the game and not during.
I got a tiff when I read Trouble on All Borders wrong and Alone and Unadvised incorrectly as well.
Lesson Learn #2:
Put power hazards of popular decks in the playdeck else you will loose big.
I placed Nameless Thing x3, Gnawed with Words, Burden of Time, Redoubled Force,
Stormcrow and the like in the playdeck I played against Hero Elf Underdeeps deck and gave him trouble with these hazards.
More to come...
