The sfmagic group is in a new location. The Canvas Gallery has closed, and our last tournament there was 25 April 2007. Until further notice, drafts will be at Milano's Pizzeria, (map).. Please see the Yahoo! group for more updates, or if you have suggestions for a new venue.

This website tracks the statistics for the sfmagic Wednesday night Magic: The Gathering draft group.
We draft every Wednesday night at the Canvas Gallery/Cafe, located at 9th Ave and Lincoln Street in San Francisco (map) (See above). The drafts begin at 19:30 (it's better to be there earlier), and only one set of drafts is done per night (no drafts start later, in other words).
If drafters do not bring their own cards, we provide cards to draft with at very reasonable prices. The drafts are unsanctioned, with no prize support. For prizes, we take all of the rare cards that were opened in the draft and pick from them based on how well players did in the draft (first place gets first pick, etc.). We usually draft whatever the most recent block is (currently Time Spiral/Planar Chaos/Future Sight).
For more details, read the FAQ.
We have aYahoo! group for information and discussion.

Click one of these categories: Overall, 2004, 2005, 2006, MRD block, CHK block, RAV block, or apply the following filters to the table:
Format:   Type:   Best of:   Block:   Sets:   Min. Tournaments:   Year:  

For the current filters, there have been 31 events / 38 tournaments, with a combined attendance of 300 players, and the average attendance has been 9.68, the average tournament size 7.89.

Points are awarded by this formula: 1 + (Number of players) - Rank. So in a tournament of eight players, the first place player would get eight points, the last place player 1 point.
After that, tiebreakers are as follows:
tournament wins, tournament winning percentage, percentage of maximum points possible, match winning percentage, game winning percentage, tournaments played.
