I think it would be HUGE for even ONE of the Madness players to make top 8. I don’t think it’s ever been done yet. Especially if they made top 4 - Madness repping at Nationals, ftw.... 
Regionals

I’ll try my damndest… but I know for SURE I can be there by about 5:15… but we’ll see… I’ll post here if I can be there earlier… I’d love to be able to test for hours and tweak it!
BTW: I’m fairly positive top 8’ing hasn’t been done yet, but wouldn’t it be amazing if we did?! Even just one player…
Everybody would have to support that person/those people fully!
Team Madness FTW!
All the more reason we need to practice, and practice HARD! It CAN be done, let’s make Chris proud and do it!

You other players can’t deny
That when a beast walks in with an itty bitty cost
And your blockers are all lost
You get removal!

This might seem like a silly question, but where and when exactly are Regionals this year?
Posted: 16 May 2006 03:53 PM
Sterling Hotel, same place they had RAV and GP prereleases.
this saturday the 20th
register at 7:00 play at 9:00
I’m pretty sure I won’t be T4’ing, if I do I’ll be as surprised as everyone else
I just hope there’s a lot of aggro.

Try adding in Grave Shell Scarab and maybe even culling sun. also, look into crime // punishment.

i’m thinking it hits the main deck and extraction gets the board. you wont know the metagame at regionals, so there will be no need for it game one.

unless, like my original deck, you have a way to quickly see their hand/deck… otherwise, matt’s right… cranials are SB

Regionals are at the Sterling Hotel???? The one right off I-35 in Dallas or am i thinking of something else. I practically live in their back yard if its them. Do you have to qualify for this or can you just show up? If so, whats the cost? It would be fun to show up, even if its just to get my ass handed to me and go 0-5 ... maybe id get lucky and get paired up against one of you guys for an easy win for yall
