I’ve just posted the 2nd Draft Walkthrough, and the really good news is it’s not mine. Nick Novak has stepped up to the plate and submitted his most recent draft for us to analyze. So, thanks Nick. Now, get to the boards and comment away.

Congrats to Larry and Nick, who both posted 3-1 records at DK’s “unofficial St. Louis Type 2 championship”. Larry finished 2nd and Nick finished 4th.
In further news, for those of you who don’t regularly check the magicthegathering.com site you might want to head over there this week - Future Site previews have arrived.

After mentioning it on the boards a couple of times I’m finally ready to debut the site. I’ve made some improvements, and I’ll be working on even more as we go along. Here a short list of what’s been done so far:
- Moved to the new domain: TeamFatmanDance.com
- Redesigned front page - Blog/Sidebar layout
- Added/Updated Links section
- Updated the Calendar section
The biggest effect of this move will be the ability to easily update the front page. Previously I had to jump through hoops to do this, now it’s as easy as making a post. That means the front page will be updated with new info often. (I’ll admit to being a little behind the times on this, as well…, every other website in the world pretty much uses this system now - my bad). I’m also hoping to make several more changes. Some of these might be:
- More front page redesign (need CSS help - Beemer?), including an official FM logo.
- New version of the “Decks” section (used to post Gauntlets w/ deck discussion & new decks on the boards).
- Getting someone (again - Beemer?) to be co-editor of the website to ensure regular updates.
- More draft walkthroughs (again, need help here MTGOer’s: Nick, Clay, Gus, etc.)
If anyone has further suggestions just let me know. I want to make sure that we do everything we can to make sure that this site is a useful tool for all of us.
Please make sure you update your links to reflect the new site, as stlplaytesters.com will be going down sometime after 4/11. Also, if you happened to have a direct link pointing to the calendar please update to the link off this homepage as the Calendar is new.
Again, hopefully everyone enjoys the new design, and please make sure to forward any suggestions to me.
Thanks, Brian
