In fact, everybody, even the looser won at least a single mini by rolling a d20 to determine which row you got something from. 19 being a rare and 20 being a harbinger box. Thursday and Friday I came into 3rd place, first time winning two boxes, and the next one. I managed to get 2 red dragons and a purple dragon night. Trading was excellent. I almost completed my rare collection having only a few more Harbinger and  Dragoneye to get. Oh, did I mention? They were giving out tubes with a free Arch Fiend mini WITH card. The gencon promo was a fluke an in fact you might be able to download and print the card soon and thus use the mini in sanctoned play (the gencon one.) I dont think you can use the archfiend mini (which is not an archfiend hehe) till the set premeiers, but you'll be able too. This weekend i spent 5$ for league play, and 20$ for a single sealed pack Tourny and i've walked away with over 100$ of mini's! What a great con. Oh, Mike Hiensoo was on hand to not only play with people, but teach them how. He's a really nice guy and though he whopped my but in the match we had, he pointed out what my options were to help me be abetter player. I'm still in bliss. And there is one half day left! w00t!</blockquote>
