Febuary Magic Schedule
FNM Standard -   
Start Time 6:30; 
Entry Fee $2; 
Swiss Rounds; 
Prizes consist of 3 booster packs for every four entrants, distributed 30%-20%-20%-10%-5%-5%-5%-5% to the Top 8 finishers, rounded down to a minimum of one, with remainders going to the top two players. (e.g., 30 players = 23 booster packs = 7/5/4/3/1/1/1/1 booster pack prizes to the Top 8).  FNM foils distributed to the Top 2 players automatically.

FNM Drafts -  
Start Time approx. 8:30 (after two rounds of Standard); 
Entry Fee $10; 
Keep What You Draft; 
Swiss Rounds;
Latest Draft Format (e.g., currently Gatecrash); 
Prizes consist of 3/2/1/1 booster pack prizes (based on 8 players) to the Top 3 and FNM foils distributed to the Top 2 players automatically.

Other prizes, like foil door prizes and other handouts, including Intro packs and Battle Packs, will be distributed as before, with a door prize pool equal to about half the number of entrants!  Based on our average 30-man FNM attendance (you can see the  expected prize distribution above), I think this is an exceptionally exciting change.  Let everyone know about our huge FNMs - the more people who play, the larger the prize pool gets!
