You know the drill, right?

• I've gotten some questions about restricting card use. We've discussed this and will not be banning any cards that you could play in any other event.
• The event is always Standard Format, so don't take the previous statement to mean 'expanded lol'. Detective Pikachu is also legal in Standard Format.
• The schedule is messy and that's my fault, and I'm sorry for the inconvenience
• If we finish a round early we'll get back on track. Otherwise let's take it like we normally would.
• If you are owned anything from January please contact me and let me know

• There was a mistake with the editing of the tournament article and it listed some wrong dates. Let me clarify: the rounds were supposed to go until 5PM EST on the last day of the round just because I may not have been available at the usual time I do this. I didn't want my work to interfere with things that I have to do for the next few weeks, but that only confused you folks and messed things up in a big way
• On that note, Round 2 will end on Friday 4/19/19 by the time it usually would. For now just ignore that 5PM thing.
• If you're entering the tournament but you don't submit a deck list, it really makes me think

• Scores will be updated regularly as they tend to be, so please check your record

Aether's Paradise has received a temporary ban on PTCGO due to a bug: http://forums.pokemontcg.com/topic/...an-aether-paradise-conservation-area-gri-116/

If you are playing Aether Paradise you will be required to swap that card out of your deck with a card of your choice that is Standard Format and resubmit your deck list. Should this bug clear up before the end of the event you may swap it back in. Again you may only swap Aether Paradise— you may not swap any other cards or play a new deck.

This will stay in effect until the bug has been fixed.
