They will answer in Q1 2019. Btw is it allowed to change deck completely? Not sure if i want to, but the actual deck is underperforming dramatically.

Just send us an email with the changes... how many cards you change is up to you ;)

Not decided yet and would have needed to wait for the last day to redeem wildcards anyway.

However, could you gauge for me, how many games would have to be played per week? Not overall, but for a single participant. I don't think it can be 1/week for then the tournament would last forever. On the other hand, if I were given a list of 10 guys from various timezones, well that wouldn't work either.

It is indeed 1 match per week, we have 170 confirmed players so we are looking at 8 swiss rounds ATM -that is not going to change unless we hit the 227 players mark and then we go to 9 rounds... and 9 rounds is enough for up to 409 players- with a larger time frame for Xmas and new year.
In swiss rounds, you are matched according to your overall performance so you will only know which player you are playing any given week. We can´t feed the program tiebreakers like time zones but with a full week to schedule the match you should have sufficient time to arrange crazy timezone differences.

PS: Team NGA is slowly assembling, I count 9 NGA accounts ;)

Filled the first few forms, realized it's best-of-three and I have no sideboard cards or any intention to craft them, facepalmed.

I had a rethink on the sideboard. As part of preparation I watched some magic as well. Also I felt I was not really respecting the aggro side of the meta. Not a clever strategy. The main deck is unchanged but the sideboard options will give me better options against aggro decks. I am also using one of the better cards in the format. Updated on the decklist post above. SD

I don't run lists that everyone else runs.

Basically the three decks I was never running were Golgari, Boros, and Jeskai.

well - the deck i planned to submit did well enough & i liked it enough for being "different". but after playtesting the last 2-3 days i am totally at sea again. ffs, i don't want to netdeck just because~

not enough time to rebuild, so it will just have to be the best i can figure out. not feeling confident in the pile at all anymore - LOL

and just 14 hrs left to submit/change decks!!

all the best everyone

Heehee.
My sideboard gives me a brand new win con. Meme, but different than my main board.

at this point the prestige of winning such a well-attended event should be worth more than the prize anyway
