PICK-UP GAMES AT NATS06 !!!
Hosted by: John Michaliszyn
EVENT #1: "SEEKER OF SOULS IRONMAN"
This event begins shortly after Nats06 registration. Trophies and prizes await winners!
How it works:
1. Register for this special event with a one-time $5.00 fee.
2. Receive a special badge indicating that you are a "SEEKER of SOULS" and that you may approach anyone who is also wearing the same badge and challenge him/her to a Redemption® Type 1 2-Player game. (YOU MAY NOT APPROACH ANYONE DURING A REGULARLY SCHEDULED TOURNAMENT EVENT!). Games must be done before or after regular Tournament play at the dorm, hotel or at down times in the free play areas or recreation rooms,etc.
3. Upon game registration you will each receive 10 plain lost souls that are unique to you. This is what you risk as a "chip" card when you play another participant in this special event once you and your challenger show each other a UNIQUE CHIP LOST SOUL and you confirm they have a legal Type 1 Deck (Yes, you need to exchange decks and count lost souls). You then begin to play a fun game. The winner receives the loser’s special ‘unique lost soul’ card. You can only win one lost soul from any participant. You can only give up one of your ‘unique lost souls’ and NOT one you've already won from someone else.
4. During lunchtime on July 29, 2006, we will call in all SEEKERS OF SOULS and count all lost souls collected. The participant with the most Lost Souls won ADDED to the number of own lost souls he/she has left will be our "ULTIMATE SEEKER OF SOULS". If any participant runs out of their own lost souls before lunchtime on July 29, they can no longer challenge anyone else to a game because they will have no Lost Soul chip cards left to risk. They must hand in the Lost Souls they have won at lunchbreak on July 29th and see if they qualify to be a winner.
EVENT #2: "PARTNERS TOURNAMENT"
This event begins Friday night after Tournaments. Trophies and prizes await winners!
