Greetings, all!

Nemesis will soon release. In order to give the programming team time to update Lackey and people a chance to look over and ponder the new cards, I'll be running a Nemesis release event starting on Friday, February 24th.

Lackey and an agreed upon voice communication format (generally Skype or Discord) are required.

Not sure what all new Achievements are available with the new set, but it's a pretty safe bet that there'll at least be a release achievement to be had, so if like me, Achievement chasing is your thing, come get it!

We'll run 3 rounds unless we get more than 8, in which case we'll run 4 rounds (or 5 rounds if for some crazy reason we get more than 16).

I hope you'll come join us for some new cards and good times! :cheersL:

Now that I've seen the new achievements, I have completely pivoted on the deck I was going to build for this event.

We're less than 48 hours away from kickoff for this gig and we have 12 players already registered!

We'll be increasing to 4 rounds, but why stop there? I like turnout, so I'm going to put the same offer on the table here as I am for my Return to Talos IV gigs:

If we get 16 players, I'll randomly select two players who finish the event and send them a special prize out of my personal prize stash. If we can get it to 20 players, I'll double that to FOUR random winners.

So go grab a friend or three and get in here! Let's make this the biggest event yet of 2023!

I've heard that exact phrase come out of my mouth I don't know how many times at this point.

In an epic shitshow of a game that will be (not) must-see-TV once the event wraps, I pull out a 56-35 Mod win over Maggie.

Good game, Madam Chairperson! :cheersL:

With 5 of 6 results in, and Seppel and TV having requested an extension, it's safe enough to proceed with Round 2 pairings.

Without further ado:

Kris Sonsteby (@LORE) vs. Jared Hoffman (@Mugato)
Thomas V (@Exon) vs. Joseph Wisniewski (@geraldkw)
Alexander Schmitz (@TyKajada) vs. Sebastian Kirstein (@Caretaker's Guest)
Brian Sykes (@Armus) vs. Austin Chandler (@DarkSabre)
lotjx2 (@lotjx2) vs. Manuel Rupprecht (@Gul Dakar)
Maggie Geppert (@jadziadax8) vs. Ensign Q (@Ensign Q)

Please try to have your second round game in by next Sunday (March 12, 2023).

Good Luck, everyone! :cheersL:
