The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Timesink? SINK? Man, I'm DYIN' to play some Magic the Gathering with my fellow gamers for as much time as humanly possible! Of course, I'll have to stop when my FINGERS start bleeding, on account of my cards getting all marked up...
Seriously, though. I got together 4 decks for random Magic Goodness during PAX. Is everybody just going to hang out around the Wizards booth? How will I find all of my fellow MtG players? I haven't been able to seriously play for about 10 years, so don't go smokin' me with all of your new, fancy-shmancy rules!

Goodbye, plucky, pimply teen. I think you're ready now to hear the truth. This wasn't really a magic hubcap. The magic was inside you all along.
Quick notice to everyone, there is to be no gambling at PAX. Strictly forbidden and all of that. If money hits the table you hit the street.
As for CCGs, UDE will be running WoW and probably WoW minis, WotC will probably have M:tG, PAX will be running UFS. All other games are of course welcome, but aren't on the schedule for tournaments.
I have several Magic decks I will be taking with me to PAX. They're mostly cards from 7th, Onslaught and beyond so I lack most of the butch cards from earlier generations. Nonetheless, I'm waiting to see how much I suck after having not played since 2004.
How will I find all of my fellow MtG players? I haven't been able to seriously play for about 10 years, so don't go smokin' me with all of your new, fancy-shmancy rules!
Last year there were random groups playing at random tables. There was a lot of multi-player games that broke off into other games when critical mass exceeded. Kind of like bacteria propagation.:P

Overwhelmed as one would be, placed in my position
Such a heavy burden now to be the one
Born to bare and read to all the details of our ending
To write it down for all the world to see
But I forgot my pen...
Oh, man! I adored that game in college. I don't know if I still remember how to play but I would be up for trying to remember though, and match my amtrak deck with any one you pick up at a gas station along the CCST.
A friend that's going in my group has decks of Munchkin (Cthulhu and Bites), Falling, Fluxx, and Fluxx Zombies. To my knowledge, he's bringing all with him.
That I am. I've yet to work out a good way to carry that many card games with me through out PAX though.
The full list will be:
Munchkin Cthulhu
Munchkin Cthulhu 2: Curse of Cowthulhu
Munchkin Cthulhu 3: The Unspeakable Vault
Munchkin Bites
Munchkin Bites 2: Pants Macabre
Munchkin Blender
Falling: The Goblin Edition
Fluxx
Fluxx Zombies
Times like this make me wish I had a utility belt.
As I am also from Michigan, and Euchre is pretty much the michigan state official card game, I'm sure I'd be up for that if I can find the time.
Also, I'll have to see if I can steal some of my little brother's cards for some Magic playing. I pretty much suck and haven't played regularly since middle school, but it's fun to see how long it takes to get my ass handed to me.

I'll be bringing all of my Muchkin as well. I think I have all of the sets for normal munchkin except one, kung fu 1 and 2, all star munchkin, the first cthulhu, the supers... basically all but spies, wild west, and I think three of the single expansions if you don't count 3.5. I will also try to bring the Girl Genius card game. We could bring xxxenophile card game, but the partial animated nudity probably wouldn't fly.
HEY! That reminds me... where the hell's those free decks that the UFS website promised us? I remember a bunch of people (myself included) filled out some form on their website to receive a free deck... we were going to use it to play, but I know I haven't received anything. Hmm...
I wish there were L5R, and I wish that my decks weren't horrendously out of date so that I could play.

I have L5R Cards that I don't want, Anyone want them? (Some money would be nice, but not required)
HAha, It seems ALOT of people are bringing Munchkin, My friend has all the Munchkin sets including promos, except some (2 I think) of the newest BASE Munchkin expansions, (He didn't get them because he cant find his Base Munchkin game.)
Gotta remember to bring my Wicked Munchkin Die...
Might even print the mask...
EDIT: Oops, Already said that I have Duelmasters...
Also, Anyone got any Duelmasters cards, I got some awhile ago from a store that was moving and selling stuff for DIRT CHEAP, and I know it's dead (not being made anymore) but I've found it to be a fun, simple-ish card game.A
Im going to bring my Marvel/ DC vs. Deck.
Hope to find some other players

In the non-collectible card game category, I'll be bringing Race for the galaxy, and I'll be on the Coast Starlight, so we can play in the observation car.

Sweet, I'll be in on that.
Oh shit, I wish I knew where my deck of Gloom cards were now
MTG - Heck yeah! I have a few decks I would love to bring with. I didn't know there was this much interest! (I was only gonna bring one deck)
I love doing Booster Drafts! I know there are a lot of old fogeys out there with no experience in the new sets, and having just recently gotten back into Magic (very very casually) I can tell you that the new sets are a BLAST to booster draft! Is there a lot of interest in doing one? If so, we all could spike one of the tourny's at a certain time to have a BUNCH of PAxM:tg fun!

People actually gamble on TCG matches? I propose instead you take up a productive hobby, like drinking beer.
Secondly, there's WoW mini's? Damn.... More money I have to spend now.

Cribbage has too much math, I only play it with old people.
...I like math...and I haven't played it since I was 9. So 14 years worth of forgetting how to play.
Fifteen two, fifteen four and the rest don't score (I will get four points and then lose that is how I play cribbage)
NO UFS!!! Go away you UFS whore who trolls the streets for sex.
:P

And I don't mind trading cards either - I'd like to build a rogue deck one of these days...
