2006 Gold Tier Tournament
Saturday October 14th, 2006This exclusive premiere tournament only available to gold tier stores, will feature prize support not available anywhere else! This tournament will be a DCI sanctioned booster draft featuring Time Spiral. The first 40 players who register and participate in the event will recieve a DCI foil Powder Keg participation card.
Prize support includes hordes of Time Spiral Booster packs, 3-row card boxes with Time Spiral artwork and a Magic: The Gathering embroidered backpack!
This came from my local stores website.
Does anyone know what a golden tier tournament is either?
To qualify and remain at the Gold Tier, you are required
to:
1. Support all three product categories.
2. Place a minimum order once per month for each of
the three categories.
3. Purchase two OP kits per month for two different
categories. (FNM qualifies for TCG.)
4. Sanction and report at least two OP events per month
for two different categories. (FNM qualifies for
TCG.)
5. Participate in all large scale organized play events;
for example, Worldwide D&D Game Day.
OH YES!!! I am so pumped. at the FNM last week, our store owner announce to us that the Gold Teir Tournament would be taking place on the 14th, apparently , they move TONS of WoTC products, not just MtG.
So pumped that Powder Keg is gonna be the Promo, I could never get them last time around. When I asked the store owner he said he didnt know yet.
Please, accept that Magic costs money to play, and drop it. A playset of Baneslayers>playset of duals. New Jace>Force of Will. Etc... Not to mention, Legacy is so wide open, that it's easy to build a deck that can perform reasonably well without very many "money staples" at all.
Yay more prizes for large areas, dosen't effect me in the slightest. I really wish they would work on finding out a way to get organized play in areas where the nearist fnm is an hour and a half away and the pre release is 3-4 hours away.

What really looks odd about the Powder Keg promo is that it is done with the new card frame and the old artifact colors. Only three sets had the super light grey artifact frame, which makes the promo Powder Keg kinda unique. Of course it is rather common so it is kinda dissapointing that they're resorting to giving it away for this tournament.
Thats a new way to promote the product...i dont think its the right way, sounds like a really obvious way to say "Give us your money fools" instead of hiding those motives as they sometimes do (or maybe its just me actually noticing this blatantly finally).
Anways, yes, the promo card was from a *checks binder* 2004 20 Tournament reward from Player Rewards.
doesn't beat my signed original foil ones.. i love dan frazier art.. i didn't get these when i was big into tourneys that year.. the time i finally qualified for it.. it switched to psychatog i got 3 of those..

I just want people who redraft to admit this:
"I can't draft objectively unless I am able to guarantee that I receive at least 3 rares. I am also better than most average/new players so I want to make sure that I get the best rares and they end up with worse ones. I care more about the monetary value of cards than actually playing the game for decent prizes."

Here's a scan for you. They must be trying to get rid of them because they have so many extra at Wizards.

I guess I'll miss this as I'll be attending a PTQ in Rhode Island that day.
Nevertheless, it's nice that there will be more powder kegs floating around on the secondary market.
