MTGO Heirloom Sealed League "Parallel Universe"

The Heirloom Sealed League: "Parallel Universe" Season 1 will begin 11/16/10 (Tuesday)

Prizes for the league have yet to be determined but as people that play the Heirloom constructed weekly events know I'm usually quite generous with my prize support. (depends on number of participants and other factors) There will be tix given out weekly as well as Heirloom foils to everyone who plays.

This sealed league will be based on the format: Heirloom an overview of the budget format can be found Here: http://mtgoheirloom.webs.com/heirloomrules.htm

When a player applies to the league they will be given a sealed pool that will be publically posted Here: http://mtgoheirloom.webs.com/apps/forums/topics/show/3692401-league-parallel-universe-cardpool-postings-

That sealed pool will contain 6 simulated "Heirloom Classic Booster Packs" IE 6 rares/mythics 18 uncommons and 60 commons.

Players will be responsible for finding the cards in their pool themselves, and only have to buy the cards they want to include in their pool for main deck and sideboard purposes.

Each week one pack will be added to each players pool.

Players will find other players in the league by coordinating online for match time throughout the week. Results of each match must be messaged to me by both players of the match to count.

One match per player combination is allowed without a maximum number of opponents.

Standings each week will be based upon total matches won.

Your deck must be at least 40 cards

Games will be played in Freeform(to allow unlimited sideboards) with 30 minute duration.

Players are expected to be good sportsmen.

Leave me a message about any issues you have, please don't get into extended arguments with other players.

If someone is playing with a card that is not in their pool take a screenshot and let me know. If it seems like an honest mistake have them take it out and take a game loss.

If you are particularly rude or insulting to other players I reserve the right to uninvite you from the league or take whatever other action I deem appropritate.

If you time out of a game because of 10 minutes of uninterrupted inactivity you lose the match.

If you are uninvited from the league you forfeit your right to a chance at any prizes

My screename on MTGO is Xaoslegend, look me up for questions, comments , discussion or games any time.

Have you ever considered an alternate format tournament? I think 2HG teams would be interesting...

All in good time,

Of course It's not like I have to run all the events, I think the moment Heirloom will really have "made it" in perpetuity is when someone else decides to run their own events like Heirloom Standard or Heirloom Block or Heirloom EDH on an ongoing basis. Right now its just baby steps to try to cover the most widely played format types first.
