Innistrad League - Event 17 and Update

Hello everyone.  I've been extremely busy with work this week as I have shifts from Tuesday to Sunday.  I haven't had time to update League much.  A reminder:  Intangible Virtue and Lingering Souls are banned. 

Updated Territory/Upgrade Info:  http://www.mediafire.com/?u2sbz18j9bn59k9

The Territory Info is updated.  A last minute addition:  Invisible Stalker costs 60 Gold and 3 Horde Tokens to unlock.

Innistrad League - Revamp after Event 15 and 16

After Kessig's surrender to Nephalia, the future of League seemed precarious and unbalanced.  Projections and simulations for the next couple of months were bleak and unfun.  I've made an executive decision to revamp league.  Territories will be redistributed to West and East.  Overlapping unlocks will be refunded.


Teams

There are now 2 teams, Innistrad West and Innistrad East.
Shane Flynn has been promoted to Captain of Innistrad West.
His team includes:  Tai Ju, Cameron Yeates, SooHyun Lee, Ricky Huynh and Sean Brackenborough.
800 Gold, 7 Horde Tokens.

Alexander Switzer has been promoted to Captain of Innistrad East.
His team includes:  Nolan Raess, Steve Chui, Curtis Bowman, Michael Black and Sunny Thisai.
900 Gold, 8 Horde Tokens.

If any team brings extra players not on this list, they must pay for each player to participate (in gold).
Myself, Ben Cope and Joseph Luong will play as GMs.  We will facilitate Quests, act as backups occasionally and independently attack Territories.  Each GM will also have a bounty.  If you defeat the GM, you take all of his Gold for your team.

Innistrad League - Event 14

Howdy, y'all.

At last Friday's event, we played 1 round of League and 3 rounds of Swiss.  Ben and Joe both finished 3-0 in the Swiss, and each will be awarded 100 Gold.  Nolan finished 2-1 and will be awarded 50 Gold.

In the future, I plan to maintain the current layout of League and speed up the rounds.  I want to encourage playing at a reasonable pace.  Also, I recently passed my Rules Advisor test.  I'll try to obtain Judge Level 1 in a month or so.  Gotta read them Comprehensive Rules. 

For League to be more fun, we need more players.  Try to get people who play Magic outside of League to join.  I would very much like to expand League.  If you're part of any other groups, please tell them to spread the word.

For this week's event, I will require your DCI numbers.
