This is a FREE event and you do not have to have won any previous events in order to enter! Everyone may enter, no matter what age or skill level, so be sure to bring all your friends and come join us in Rockford! To be held at the Here's a Mapquest link for you. (use the bar on the left to zoom out) Registration opens at 9am Participants will receive an exclusive City Championships promo card, Decklists will be required. You can print it out ahead of time here (pdf) or I'll have them there to fill out too. Here's a link to a wonderful Decklist maker that really makes it easy to do your decklist... just click on the drop down menu to make your selections, then print it out and bring it in! Either way is fine. Just be sure to be there early enough to get them filled out and turned in before 9:45, because you must have a decklist to be entered in the tourney! And remember, it's you're responsibility to make sure that your deck is legal and matches your decklist completely, so take care in writing it out! We'll have people who can help you fill it out or check over your deck when you get there, so just let me or one of my Judges know if you need some help..
What do I need to bring with me? You'll need to bring your own 60 card legal deck, it's always good to bring your own damage counters or dice, you may want to bring a sack lunch or money to buy lunch, snacks, products for sale, or to enter in some of our Side Events after the Main Event, but no money is required for entry to this event. You should also know your POP ID number. Many of you are already in my computer from playing in past events of mine, but if you're new and don't have a POP ID number yet, no worries... I can get you set up with one right there. Format: Modified Constructed - Bring your own best DP-on Modified decks to play in this tournament. Remember, this is Title Premiere Event... so keep in mind the following rules and restrictions: Of course if you have any questions at all as to if your deck is Tourney ready or not, please feel free to stop in a little early and have us check over your deck for you. If you arrive and find that your deck is not legal to play in this tourney, don't worry, you will still be able to play. Some starter decks will be available to purchase right there at a nominal cost. We may also have a limited number of 'loaner' decks to borrow for the event, on a first come, first serve basis, if your deck isn't legal for the tourney, if you don't have money for a new one, or if you know how to play and want to, but just don't have a deck. This event will most likely will be Age Separated Swiss (everyone will play within their own age group in all the rounds, the number of rounds being determined by number of players in each age group) The City Championships series will have a K-Value of 16. For more information on how the K-Value affects your Premier Rating, please see the Ratings and Rankings FAQ.

We'll try to stick to it as best we can, but of course times may vary due to the actual number of players attending and unforseen events that may delay things. There are lots of fast food restuarants within walking distance from the Women's Club, including Arby's & Subway, and many more just a few blocks away. Fell free to bring in your own lunch if you like, and we'll also have snacks and soda available at reasonable prices for those of you who don't want to leave the building. And of course I'll bake brownies and cookies for all of you too! Top Cut Comics (formerly Tomorrow Is Yesterday) will have some things for sale there for your convenience... booster packs, theme decks, snacks and soda, but be sure to stop by the newly remodeled store (5600 N. 2nd St) to see the complete line of products they have for sale, including single card sales. You'll be amazed at the transformation! Also of note: I might need help from some of my regular players to get things set up and also cleaned up afterwards, so contact me if you're able to help me out, ok? Thanks! I appreciate it!
