In 2007, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. She is now one of more than two million survivors in the United States. We owe her early detection and successful treatment to research funded by organizations like Susan G. Komen for the Cure. This year, I will be part of the Columbia, MO Race for the Cure in her honor, and I'm asking my friends in the DCI to help out. To raise funds for my Race for the Cure team, I will be organizing Magic for the Cure, to be held at Valhalla's Gate in Columbia, MO. If you would like to donate toward the prize pool, please contact me at rcross126 (at) gmail (dot) com for shipping information.

Hey there...I have a question for you. I am going to be overseeing a gaming section of a convention next year. In the past, the people running gaming have not had the appropriate attitude and such, but we are working toward making gaming a major part of the Convention in the upcoming years. I was wondering if you could help me in suggesting organizations or how I could myself run DCI sanctioned events for a couple card games over a weekend. I know Feral used to do this, and I know they were treated poorly. That will never be happening again. Please get back to me, I would love to talk.
James, I will be happy to talk with you further, but I need a way to contact you. Clicking the link on your name shows me that your profile is not publicly available.
How will the prizes be distributed for this event?
Landon - that will ultimately depend on the number of prize donations I receive. If we have sufficient supplies, I would like for everyone who plays and stays through the end of the tournament to be able to walk away with something. Prizes will be awarded after Swiss rounds are complete -- there will be no top 8 purely due to the time limits we have on the venue. We will also have a few door prizes throughout the day.
