I really should close this instance.

It costs money and time, and what I post on here really could be on my main account: @LovesTha

Can I transfer an account to merge them....?

So Standard Spectacular Sydney has just been announced for July 10-12th.

It has a $AUD100k prize pool.

Date is sort of awkward, close enough to Spotlight Brisbane (late August) that it will compete with travel/leave/budget for many but not close enough for anyone to travel to both in one trip.

But if you are thinking of a two month holiday in Oz and play #MtG, this is probably the best double event. And two months here is not ludicrous if you enjoy things outside cities (our cities are good, but not two months good)

Many games are realising that unbounded end of time procedures are unworkable. #MtG has had 5 turns, no time limit for as long as I've been playing (25 years), but what would be better?

I think 3 turns is enough (odd numbers are correct), and appropriate at all levels.

But we also need a hard time cap, big events frequently have a match still in turn 0 a full 20 minutes into overtime. I think 10 minutes is reasonable.

What to do at the end of the 10 minutes i think has three options:

* Single Elim (presumable Comp REL, don't run single elim for Regular REL): current end of turns procedure. At the end of 20 minutes overtime, coin flip.

* Regular REL: the game is a draw. If your opponent was playing slowly when up a game, fucking call the judge earlier.

* Comp REL: double match loss, unless the players have unequal numbers of slow play warnings this event. If they do the slow player gets the match loss. (Reported as 2-1 if they won a game this round)

This gives both players incentive to finish on time, and real sting to a slow play warning.

Is this a crazy option?

Your on the play in Avatar sealed, both players have mulliganed twice, do you keep a single plains with a 1/1 with vigilance? Or mulligan to 4?

Edit: your 1/1 is Momo so when it dies you'll get some scry action.

I probably shouldn't let this domain lapse if I want this to continue.

hence the 2 day down time :(
