For the prerelease, if the attendance is good enough, I might try to give out a box for 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th!

Whereabouts in PA is the store? Western, closer to Pittsburgh? Southeastern, closer to Philly?

Right outside Pittsburgh, good 6-7 hour drive for us.

Good place to play though, I've gone out there a few times for Type 1 Mox events.

Nothing exciting happened

It's in Greensburg, PA, which is about half an hour from Pittsburgh. Go Steelers!

I was suppose to be there that day, too. I got really drunk and didn't make it because the Penguins won the Stanley Cup the night before...go figure.

I'd like to go to an event run by stu55 once or twice, just to see how he runs it. I'd expect a tight ship and everything pristine.

hehe, Stu is great at running events!
Plenty of promos, great prize support (which I guess is cause of the store really), and a fantastic butt!
He's good at getting side events rolling too.

IDK, it would of gotten real ugly. It's probably better it was resolved the way it was. WE may have never been allowed to come back. LOL

This will be by far the most paid out event within 3 hours of anywhere! No need to look or call elsewhere to find out!

Maybe we were at different Scars of Mirrodin prereleases (we weren't- I met you)?

A) Never has anyone, other than you complain about my personality.

B) We have NEVER used table numbers at the store and there has never been any problems. It is just people finding their opponent and finding a place they want to battle at.


We keep getting more and more people for our events instead of the other way, so apparently doing something right.

Because those that would won't stand up to you over it for whatever reason. You treated several people like crap that day (I've forgotten names, apologies), and they didn't deserve it. You're not so different from how you portray yourself on here, which saddens me, becuase I don't remember that from Sal's.

B) We have NEVER used table numbers at the store and there has never been any problems. It is just people finding their opponent and finding a place they want to battle at.
I don't understand why you and the shop owner don't think of that as a critical problem, because it absolutely is.

I don't mean to say there's nothing going right, Stu. My first comment on this thread was based on AlmostGrown saying "I'd expect a tight ship and everything pristine." You do not run a tight ship.

You spent a good deal of time outside the shop with your friends. I don't do that when I run events, and I don't find it to be an acceptable behavior for a T.O. If your regulars do, then it's because they don't know any better. Yes, I was in there to help answer questions, but I was also playing, and you weren't. You should have been in the store while rounds were running.

My second comment was a reply to the comment that you are great at running events, and it was based on the aforementioned reasons.

Let me say again: it's good that The Vault is doing a lot things right, but it could be doing a couple other things far better to make the experience that much better for everyone involved.

My attitude with them is like that because we all hang out together, outside of the shop. Most of those people at the shop are with us out drinking and hanging out at houses, so no one is going to get offended by it. That is why there is no reason to stand up to it. Like MagicPatty said, and he is a regular, everything is run fine because we are all use to everyone else's personalities.

And I see no problem stepping outside the shop from time to time because just like the other people, I don't want to stand inside a game shop for 7 hours straight.

UMMM-- I have... I consider you a friend, but you're a total Jag off sometimes. (Just keepin you honest Stu )

Also, I will add: You do run a well organized event. Though my preference is to another local shop, The Vault does great work.
