FORMAT & TOURNAMENT STRUCTURE: This is a Competitive REL Legacy tournament. Swiss rounds will scale with attendance and cut to a Top 8. Tournament Organizers, a Head Judge, and other judge staff will be on-site to run a smooth event. However, we expect the Top 8 to run into the night.
Doors open at Noon. Players' Meeting will start around 1:00 PM. There will be no early entry due to Brewery hours and set-up requirements.

If you have any questions about specific artistically-altered cards being allowed, please email us at least one week in advance and expect to review the card in-person with the head judge at or before the show. No proxies, counterfeits, or "play-test cards" are permitted.

Silver Branch is immediately adjacent to the Silver Spring Train Station on the DC Metro's Redline, and near multiple public parking garages, including the Cameron Street Garage.
FOOD, AND DRINK: Silver Branch's beautiful space features ample in-house brewed beers, a full bar, and a good kitchen.

Additional Information
MANAGING EXPECTATIONS: Please note that this event has some "at your own risk" elements. This is a not being held in a large convention center event hall with a huge staff of judges, production assistants and security on hand. Rather this is a private event held primarly in the back event room -- and literlal core of an area brewery -- staffed by additional DCG employees while the shop is also open a few miles away. The play area is really cool, but expect some elbow-to-elbow play in an environment with some opponents imbibing of available alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. If you are concerned about a drink on the table, please politely say something to your opponent. We advise the classic move of keeping your bag under the table and consuming your beverage between rounds or where you can see it so it doesn't get spilled. There are prizes on the line but we aim for this event to have a spirit of camarderie and charity. Thank you in advance for understanding.
SOCIAL MEDIA: Be sure to tag @DiceCityGamesDC on twitter, facebook, and discord.
