Tomorrow Is Yesterday's
Diamond & Pearl Prerelease We had the gameroom set up a bit differently than we usually do, with some extra tables to help accomodate the extra players, plus we also had some extra tables set up inside the main part of the store too, for some of the overflow. Devin Peltier-Robson, Keny Bailey, and Adam Vernola helped to judge the event and keep things going smoothly. The Theme Deck Challenge players had their very own room in the downstairs gameroom and Ryan Alperstein helped oversee their fun. Here's the breakdown of info for the day's events. The main Prerelease had a total of 41 players - 23 masters, 12 Seniors and 5 Juniors 1st place was Ryan B 1st place was Dustin N As I said, I think everyone had a good time, but I have to give a little 'shout out' to the 8 players who came from Aledo IL. Many an email Brad M and I had getting everything in place for the new players he and his gang were bringing. They were all such a fun bunch and some of the new ones they brought were literally having a blast! I have a hunch their college just won't be the same when they get back! Diamond & Pearl posters on the walls and the enthousiasm that can only come from your first Prerelease event experience. I'm glad they made the trip and had so much fun once they got here!
I'll have pics up shortly! Thanks for coming everyone! Next up.... Battle Road!! |
