Yes, that's right... it's that time again!
This means join us at TIY on
Sat May 10th
for our next Prerelease Event!

Due to increased rates at the Women's Club, we'll be holding our Prerelease right at Tomorrow Is Yesterday! What? It's not big enough you say? Don't worry, to accomodate our usual number of players comfortably, we'll have it at 2 separate times. Our regular local players will come to the early event (from 10-2) and all other players can come to the later event (from 2-6).
This will be great because now we'll have plenty of soda, candy, sleeves, booster packs, dice, and other great items right there on hand at the store for you!

We can easily accomodate 80 players, but Preregistration is still strongly suggested to reserve your seat into the event.

We will still have a Theme Deck Challenge available (looks like more players at the afternoon time) but most likely will not be able to have a Side Event after this one. (If we are able to, it would follow the 2nd event in the afternoon.)

When: Sat May 10th
10:00am for our regular TIY Players(from our local tourneys and League) This is full as of now.
Time: 2:00pm for all other guests
Where: Tomorrow Is Yesterday 5600 N. 2nd St. Rockford IL 61111

***********************************************************************

As usual, we will be having two different ways to play in the Prerelease,
both going on at the same time, for each, the early or the Afternoon events:


the Sanctioned Main Event, OR the Theme Deck Challenge.
(Read the differences between the two in their descriptions below)
Either one you choose, you'll get a Cool set of unique card sleeves and a special Promo card!
Just think... a day full of fun with your Pokemon friends, a chance to get and play with the new cards before anyone else gets them, A Special set of sleeves for your deck, a special Promo Card...
all for only $25!! Such a deal!

Want to get some extra booster packs? Bring in your friends, neighbors, parents... for every new person you bring in to play, in either the Main Event or the Theme Deck Challenge, I'll give you a bonus pack! Let's face it, Pokemon is a GREAT game, we ALL love it, and it's MORE fun the more people who play! This is going to be a VERY exciting new set and this is the very first day it's available too! You won't want to miss it!!

Also keep in mind the spirit of a Prerelease is non-competitive, with no real pressure to win, which is why everyone will receive prize packs at the end. The main objective is to have fun and check out all the new cards! Don't forget, the New Rules that came out with the Release of Diamond & Pearl are in effect, so be sure to check it out if you aren't familiar with the new changes.

But don't worry, we'll have LOTS of random pack giveaways throughout the day! I also have some really cool door prizes to give out... besides packs and sleeves and such, a free Pass to our next Prerelease worth $25, as well as some other great door prizes! You can be sure we'll have a good time! Oh and of course, I'll bake plenty of cookies for everyone! We'll also have Soda,candy bars, booster packs, dice, and all kinds of other products available right there at the store for you!


Email me, PM me, or call TIY (815-633-0330) to preregister for this exciting, fun event!

Majestic Dawn Prerelease
- Main Event -


Cost: $25 for 6 boosters to build the deck you'll play in the tournament, plus a special Promo Card and a cool set of sleeves for your decks for everyone, while supplies last! I can't tell you what the sleeves look like, but I CAN tell you that you'll love them!
So you get more than $35 worth of products for only a $25 entrance fee!
And 2 weeks before they even go on sale to the public! Such a deal!
!

Main event - Each player will receive 6 booster packs of the new set (to keep) and may start opening their packs. Players will each build their own 40 card deck (using only those cards from the 6 packs) to play in the tourney and write down their decklist, deciding how many energies they will want to include in their decks. ( no trading carde with others until after the Tourney) Basic energies are provided on loan, and for this Prerelease we will also have special Proxie Basic Dark and Basic Metal Energies. Everyone will have 30 minutes to build their decks using the cards from the packs they received.
Once the decks are built, the tourney will begin with 20 minute rounds and play for 4 prizes. The number of rounds we will have will depend on the total number of players there, but probably 3 or 4 rounds.

Prizes: ALL participants will receive 2 more Majestic Dawn prize packs at the end of the tourney (making a total of 8 packs, PLUS the surprise gift sleeves and the Promo card)

************************************************************************
Or if you prefer, you can do the

Majestic Dawn Prerelease
- Theme Deck Challenge -


Cost: $25 for a Theme Deck (complete with new rulebook, themed coin, damage counters and playmat) to keep and use to compete against others in the Theme Deck Challenge, plus a special Promo Card and the cool sleeves for everyone, while supplies last!

This special tourney will be separate from the main event and follows a much more casual format. Great for younger players, parents, or those who may not be as familiar with deck building on their own, but would still like to participate. If you don't know how to play, we can teach you! Each player will choose one of 2 different Majestic Dawn Theme Decks to use to battle others who also choose the Theme Deck Challenge, and the nice thing about playing the Theme Deck Challenge is that each Theme Deck also comes with one of the new Rulebooks and playmats, a special coin, and your own damage counters, all very useful tools for the newer players.

And all participants in this Theme Deck Challenge will ALSO receive 4 more Majestic Dawn prize packs at the end of their tourney, in addition to the decks they played.
(making a total of: the Deck, 4 booster packs, plus the cool sleeves and Promo card).

Again, you get more than $35 worth of products for only a $25 entrance fee!
