    I’ll be there. Draft is my favourite thing in the world. I think it’s a great idea if you can do a regular draft (fortnightly). I’ll be there for them too. Unless I tell you differently just assume I’m there.

    Michael,
    By alara block do you mean one booster from each set? That would be awesome.

    Yup, that’s what I meant — the current official draft format! 🙂

    For some practice on drafting this block go to:

    http://magic.tcgplayer.com/db/article.asp?ID=7366. Youll have to make an account (free), but after that it can use it to simulate a draft of the Alara block

    Will let you know soon if i can come michael – just have to check its ok with rach

    Cool thanks, Daniel. I looked at the logs for a couple of drafts where one of the bots was drafting red/green big creatures and took a 6th pick Tower Gargoyle over a Druid of the Anima, so I think they may still have some way to go in programming their artificial intelligence. But cool, nonetheless.
