To celebrate the launch of Magic 2011 Wizards of the Coast is hosting M11 Launch Parties around the globe and will determine a donation amount based on attendance at these parties. If 40,000 people attend, Wizards of the Coast will donate $11,000. For each additional 1,000 attendees Wizards of the Coast will donate $1,100 up to $22,000 (50,000 attendees).
By attending your local launch party, you can celebrate the release of an exciting new product AND help make a difference in the lives of children across the country. The event will last the entire weekend globally, starting at 12:00am July 16th in New Zealand and running through 11:59pm July 19th in Hawaii.
This is a great opportunity for gamers to band together and be a part of something bigger than themselves. All you have to do is show up at an M11 Launch Party and bring your friends…which you’d be doing anyway!

While it's all well and good them giving money to charity, I'd rather know what's happening at the launch party, and if it costs money to enter, as well as the exact date, as your post doesn't tell us any of those things... _________________ If in danger or in doubt,

Well more importantly, I can't find any actual evidence of an event (beyond the mtg website saying something about the 15th August) and that it would be standard constructed (seems a little silly for a launch party, which makes me suspicious)
There is apparently a sealed event at Altrinham (The Gaming Crypt) on that weekend. I can't make it myself, but I will call for more details tomorrow and put it up on this thread. _________________ The Master can blow me, Monkey-Suit. Bloodrayne 2
