- As part of the promotion, some Wave 3 cards were revealed
- Later that evening, Earth players gathered at Stitch, a bar in midtown Manhattan, to participate in the first Earth-based PCAG competition
- Throughout the event, players at the bar contacted those in IRC and on UF to keep them updated
The Games
- Players first tackled 'Roundabout', Perplex City's version of Rock-Paper-Scissors -- using Cube-Pyramid-Sphere
- Three rounds of three games each
- Sphere beats Pyramid beats Cube beats Sphere
- Then the atheletes played the card game Set, found in the Firebox catalogue
- Be sure to check out the awesome online version of Set here
- Next, from the 8 people who had the most points from those two games, four were eliminated through two rounds of 3d tic-tac toe
- Finally, the four were reduced to two through Batik
- The remaining two competed for the championship through "Clash", in which a trivia question or puzzle was put on a videoscreen, and the two had to ring in faster than the other
- Some Third Wave cards were revealed
