  • Magic results

    Congratulations to my son George, who managed to score a 3rd victory in our annual Magic: The Gathering tournament. Competition this year was much more challenging – the final placing came down to a close match between three players. There were some surprises too – several of our veteran players were knocked out early to…

  • Its Magic

    While I continue to struggle with trying to render and publish the latest Age of Ashes session, its time for me to get working on the trophy for our upcoming Magic: The Gathering tournament. This Saturday, from 2 PM to 5 PM, we will be hosting our 3rd annual Thanksgiving Tournament, though the date this…

  • 2019 MtG Tournament

    Finalized the schedule for our upcoming 3rd annual Magic the Gathering tournament, now planned for November 30, from 2 PM to 6 PM.

This year, due to…

However, there is a bit of preparation I need to do, not the least of which is prepare, build, and paint the trophy for this year. I expect I will use the same model, obviously updating the year, but…

  • Magic the Gathering results

    We had a fun tournament, with quite a few players for our annual tournament.  Ended up with fewer players than last year, apparently several felt pre-cooking for Thanksgiving was a higher priority, and some of last years players were out of town.  But those that did show up had a lot of fun, and we…

  • Magic: The Gathering, Tournament Trophy

    Wrapped up and finished the first place trophy for our upcoming tournament, by adding the final details.  Likely will still add a coating of sealant, just to help protect it a bit, but it is otherwise complete.  Overall, I am happy with the results, and the design works well.  I may adjust it a bit…
