  • @jpastor, it would seem today is the final day for signups! I can't wait to see what you have cooked up!

  • @jpastor I am sorry to say that I will not be able to take the time or resources to participate in this contest any longer. Please take me out of this contest.

    No issue @fire12... I forgot that I do this for a living and always have backup plans for last minute changes! We'll roll with 23 :smile:

    @jpastor Are we supposed to request mystery boxes from you in the mystery box discussion, or will you just give them to us?
  • @jpastor I wanted to ask you how you made your website. I tried to use the program you are using for the tournament page, but it keeps saying 'Error' is there some problem with it? 
  • @TenebrisNemo Looks like I'm against you this round, may the best cardsmith win!
  • @SNAPcreator7 It works for me. Try this-

  • It would seem you already delivered my prize. I'll get to work on my card!
  • edited September 2020
    @jpastor I think you miss typed. My Mystery Box should be "One Favorite of your choice" (your referring to me). If not, and that hasn't been updated yet, then don't listen to me. Otherwise, I will get right on with my challenge.
  • Due to the odd number of participants, the following 3 cardsmiths have a bye week:
    - BlackTyger00: Round 1 Bye
    - DomriKade: Round 2 Bye
    - LyndonF: Round 3 Bye

    Due to the odd number of participants, 1 participant will have a 4th matchup (BurningWaffle). Win or Loss, only 3 of the 4 matchup results will count towards their round robin record. To avoid bias and complications, I will not reveal which matchups will count until after round robin.

    As a result, the following two matchups will be posted today, but are not due until the Round 3 deadline. This will give each of these 4 cardsmiths adequate time to prepare their entry for these matchups.

    @DomriKade vs @LyndonF
    Your tournament mystery box contains:
    - Mystery Box Prize 67 for LyndonF: Favorite on your 4 most recently created cards.
    - Your Round 3 Challenge: Create a card based on a superpower.

    @BlackTyger00 vs @BurningWaffle
    Your tournament mystery box contains:
    Mystery Box Prize 30 for BlackTyger00: Two favorites of your choice
    Mystery Box Prize 68 for BurningWaffleGifted Premium

    A creature that uses Energy counters
  • edited September 2020
    @jpastor

    Your Round 1 Mystery Challenge: Create an Enchantment card that mentions Volrath in the flavor text.



    A card that's an ode both to the flavorful cycle of "Form" enchantments, and "Phyrexian Obliterator". 


    It probably won't be good enough to get to the next bracket up, especially going up against someone like Ranshi, but I'm hopeful.

    Everyone gets 3 matchups of leveling play - 1 per week for the first 3 weeks. The 4th week will be a playoff. So you cant be eliminated until the final week.

    @jpastor ;I'd like to reveal prize 31, please. Also here's my creature using energy counters. SHOOT: my mistake, I forgot to put the word 'Pay' before the energy counter symbol in the middle ability. 
    - Your Round 1 Mystery Challenge: Create a creature that uses energy counters.
