I have been slow played out of fnm before and that was bad enough.

Also I have lost to first blood which is the worst thing ever.

So Levi is Fatty Vautin and Cameron is the resident expert

People seem to have given Mike a hard time, but compared to all the other shops they had a tourney, chairs and tables with numbers, a judge, a time that was good for players (i.e. not Saturday day time) and advertising..... which sadly means OGC was light years ahead of anywhere else I have played in Brisbane.

One year ago if there was no OGC I would have thought about opening a shop...its the ultimate dream for nerds right

Now days I would have to keep working my current job so doing it half arsed just seems like a good ticket to frustration and losing money.

But the moment I saw a bunch of ACE guys get boxes for A$ 110.00 from the US rather than from a local store that dream died, and I am not surprised ACE doesn't care about magic, since it seems so irrelevant to their income stream.

Cameron hit the nail on the head though, it seems so easy for a store to pick up from the loss of OGC. All they really need is one magic guy to judge, do pairings and it could work.

a store like Annerley which I'm guessing does not bring in much from magic would all of a sudden make some dough if they had FNM.

Unfortunately I think it would be quite painful doing business with them
little things like organising chairs and tables would be a sh*tfight.

It is such a waste because there could be a successful business with them basicaly giving free rent for a Friday Night tournament, selling a few things on the night but also becoming the place people would go for random pack purchases during the week.

The person coming in to run the FNM, could have their own folders and stock if needed and because it is only one day of physical work (i know there would be a bit more to it).
If Chris was the guy it seems win win except egos on the Ace side would prolly get in the way.

Me too. That's why I will never play a deck with Darkheart Sliver in it.

I do remember someone trying to slow play me at an FNM, and a certain Tournament organiser giving us a massive extension so the game could finish, which it would have normally if one of the players played at a normal pace.

After wards the slow player said to me "that time extension wasn't right" I guess expecting me not to bite back but I told him "I thought it was fair because if you played at a proper pace we would have got a result an hour ago, and you shouldn't complain that we had enough time to finish".
After that I had no problems with him so I guess players just have to complain more...but obviously at a place with no judge you might not get a result.
