Ok, the map choice is absolutely correct. The horrors are from Grixis and unfortunately can't cross over. You need to choose between Bant or Grixis.

I'm signing up for this, but I've been too busy to plan out my maps. Will edit in later.

Since AoR II isn't playable with 8 players:
Antarctica

Meh, this is hard
If I'm correct first round are 8-player games, second round 5 and 3rd round 3?
In that case I'd like to change to this:
Naya - Cylian
Antarctica - Auto, seq, escalating, adjacent, sunny (8 players)
AoR II - Auto, seq, nuclear, unlimited, foggy (5 players)
Cricket - Auto, seq, no spoils, chained, foggy (3 players)

Congrats on the medal. I definitely want in but don't have the time to think out my maps and everything at the moment. I will get back to you when I have some time to read everything in detail and will pick maps.

Dammit! You're supposed to bump this and remind me when I actually do have time to pick maps, not when I should be studying...

Don't lie... you weren't planning on studying anyway...

It's still early in the term, so I still believe that studying will help me.

Okay, finally got all that read and I think I understand. Definitely still in:

2A home shard: Jund
3 A Home Nation: Dragons
4 Settings for phase 2 and 3: Same as for Round 1

Let me know if I got everything right. If not, I can adjust.
