MTGO Heirloom Free PRE 10/03/10 (Sunday) 11AM PST
Next week's MTGO Heirloom tournament will be on 10/03/10(Sunday) at 11AM pacific standard time (LA, California, USA time).
This Thread is just to let people know the event is Sunday as opposed to the usual Saturday time. If you could take your comments and questions to the main thread that would great. The main thread is here: http://community.wizards.com/go/thread/view/75846/25877457/Heirloom_MTGO_Weekly_Saturday_Free_PREs_Tix_Prizes

I still have some foil promo lands that were given to us by Our-Lord-Erman to give out as well as extra foils to choose from from Hoffe-the-Fin and an extra foil promo land from The-Slippery-B.I.G..
Depending on how things go I'd like to run one Sunday event for every two Saturday events. I sense atm that about twice as many people can't play on Sunday as on Saturday and so this seems like a good compromise to proportionately satisfy the Heirloom community. Thanks guys and feel free to comment about the new scheduling with suggestions, support or criticism. The event after that would be on 10/09/10 the following Saturday.
Join the chat channel by typing /join Heirloom in a chat channel on MTGO. (This is also the default channel for Heirloom chat in general)
Each Participant will recieve a relevant Heirloom foil(from a varied selection of your choice) for playing(at least three rounds). The winner will get 6 tix second place will recieve 4 tix and third and fourth 2 tix as well as more prizes to be awarded just for participation to be decided later. (These are minimum prize amounts, I may increase them, if I do I will let everyone know after the event begins or shortly beforehand)
The event is swiss, so you will play until the end of the event, a minimum of 3 rounds, but up to five.
I will be online at least a couple hours before to answer questions about legalities and whatever other details people have questions about.
I hope to see a ton of people there. The more show up the more I'll give away in prizes.
The tournament is free to enter.
(If you drop out of the event you forfeit your chance at the foil participation choice and whatever else I give out as participation awards that day)
You must have a deck that is Heirloom classic legal (60 cards minimum, 15 or zero sideboard cards).
If someone tells me you are playing with an illegal card and I confirm it you will first get a warning and then have 10 minutes to switch the card out of your deck and you will lose that game. The second time you will get a match loss and the third time you will be uninvited from the tournament.
If it appears you are flagrantly not following Heirloom rules I will reserve the right to uninvite you from the tournament at any time.
If you are particularly rude or insulting to other players I reserve the right to uninvite you from the tournament.
If you time out of a game because of 10 minutes of inactivity I reserve the right to uninvite you from the tournament.
If you are persistently stalling I reserve the right to uninvite you from the tournament.
If you are uninvited from the tournament you forfeit your right to a chance at the door prize (2 tix to one or more participant who did not win another prize chosen at random)
I cannot win or displace prizes if I play in the event. (which I will often do to make the event even so that there are no byes and not do if it would create an odd number) I will often jump into and back out of the event to prevent byes, my deck will remain the same througout an event of course.

Hey guys,
The foil stock has been bolstered by Thuh-Nagarjuna with a donation of 4 foil basic lands a foil promo lightning hounds, foil goblin arsonist foil boros garrison and a foil merfolk sovereign. I'll give the sovereign out to the winner of the event in addition to the other prizes I was already set to award. Thanks Nagarjuna.

Hey guys,
The foil stock has been bolstered by now by Holy3456 who just donated a foil Fiery Fall, Etherium Abomination and Jund Sojourners to the cache. They will be available as choices for the foil for participation in events. (which you always get a choice of one just for showing up at the very least)
Also the 2nd Mtgotraders Heirloom article is up! http://puremtgo.com/articles/heirloom-constructed-godfathers-part-1
Thanks Holy3456, cheers,

Great event guys,
We got another solid donation from Thuh-Nagarjuna of 1 tix and 2 foils so thanks again for that Nagarjuna.
We got a very much appreciated donation from ChrisMH77 of a ton of foils including 1 curse of wizardry, 1 promo khabal ghoul, 4 Mistvein Borderposts, 3 Parasitic Strix, 4 Prismatic Lense, 3 Sedraxis Alchemist, 3 Soul Manipulation, 4 Tidehollow Strix, 3 Whiplash Trap, and 1 Zektar Shrine Expedition Thanks again for that Chris.
*TimeQuake still needs to pick up his participation prize of 1 tix and two foils of his choice so find me or I'll try to find you online for that =)
The event started with 14 players without me which is an increase of 1 player over last week's Saturday event. The next two weeks will be saturday again.
the players were:
TimeQuake
Bliven731
Winter.Wolf
Amatlannittha
mrjebus27 (Don't-Mess-with-the-Jebus)
OMC11
ChrisMH77
Nagarjuna (Thuh-Nagarjuna)
Kelgate
HornedFish
olaw
SekKuar Deathkeeper (Sek-you-up-Deathkeeper)
feastoftheunicorn
Lozarian
1st got taken by Bliven731
his win was with one of two Pestermite/Splinter Twin decks in the event(the first of our five events we've seen the combo at all I believe), some pretty amazing games for him to catch the event win there, awesome play Bliven.
mrjebus27 and Kelgate tied for 2nd
mrjebus ran a very well tuned mono-blue skies/tempo deck, and Kelgate ran his black red discard deck with a small tweak from last time.
All and all the top three prizes were taken by totally different deck types, one was pure combo, the next a tempo beatdown deck the last a discard deck that went for discard synergies for a very effective line of attack.
the rest all got participation awards. with nagarjuna omc11 Winter.wolf, Timequake, olaw, ChrisMH77 all being 2-2.
Many of the participants posted their decklists in the main event announcement thread at the mothership here in the last couple pages:

grats everyone and thanks a lot for coming out and having some fun with us, I hope to see you guys again with new brutalities and new players with their own brews and improvements on established Heirloom archetypes
