In addition to Rob’s prizes, I will also hand out some GNK playmats, reserved only for new players who don’t already have mats; and any player whose corp can beat me on Kate will receive a handful of old participation promos as a bounty.

GET HYPE!

If you bring an IT department deck just to troll me, a timed win will not be good enough. And I will play slow to spite you. :wink:

If I’m going to lose, it won’t be to a 55 minute IT Department game.

If anyone sees this, can I ask to reserve a spot? I got off at the wrong bus stop, so I’ll be late. I’m definitely willing to take a double-game loss as long as I can play.

Okay, got there ~1/2 a minute before pairings went up - phew!

I was playing my ago MaxX and the Spiderweb HB, but I lost 2 playtest decks while moving, so I had to replace some cards (surprisingly few given that they were anarch/hb decks). Here’s some of the games I remember. Overall I went 6-4. (I think it was the most common score)

I played an NEH, Keyholed a bunch, but I left it, and the agendas I milled got jackson’ed away. Still stole a Beale. R&D got better protected then, and then I got IHW in hand to be ready to go tag-me, but then I got Traffic Accident/Scorched, which missed my IHW. I was doing okay - probably if it hit, I’d have about a 50% chance of winning.

I played another NEH with lots of biggish ice (little engine kept me out of HQ the whole time and tollbooth out of R&D)

One guy played Tennin, and was (understandably) annoyed when I beat him because I had watched one of his previous games without asking permission. (it was a pretty standard tennin deck, though, so I’m not sure if what I saw ever made a difference)

I played a quick game versus butchershop (autocorrects to buttercup) - he left R&D open first click to score an astro, and I had kept my hand which had Keyhole. Imp really came in useful. MaxX is the best call against buttercup, I think, because the card draw lets you take damage during your turn without using up too many clicks, and IHW protects you at “night”.

I played a really close game with my HB against Vamp CT. I had had 4 Adonis’s rezzed total, and played almost all my economy. Eventually he got the vamp off, and when I didn’t trash his SOT the first chance I got, a final Maker’s eye sealed the deal. (there were 3 total played, so I had gotten lucky up to that point, as R&D was relatively full of points). I did get off a pretty good Chronos Project, exiling Legwork and most of my opponent’s deck.

I was one spot behind @bblum, and one ahead of the person who took the alt-art I wanted.
