Events
Along with weekly battleground tournaments at local hobby stores, Cryptozoic Entertainment hosts Darkmoon Faires (DMF) events. Darkmoon Faires are weekend events that run Friday through Sunday in cities all across the world.
Previously, the most notable competition featured was the Dream Machine Championship, which the winner received a custom built computer. Currently, Darkmoon Faire Championship Events offer electronics and travel vouchers to the top finishers of its main event. However, the Darkmoon Faire itself has been emphasized as a miniature convention, where people can play more than just the World of Warcraft Trading Card Game. There are also plenty of side events where players who did not do well in the main event can win Apple electronics, gift cards, and World of Warcraft loot cards.

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“If there is a case for mental events and mental states, it must be that the positing of them, like the positing of molecules, has some indirect systematic efficacy in the development of theory.”
—Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
“Reporters are not paid to operate in retrospect. Because when news begins to solidify into current events and finally harden into history, it is the stories we didn’t write, the questions we didn’t ask that prove far, far more damaging than the ones we did.”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
“By many a legendary tale of violence and wrong, as well as by events which have passed before their eyes, these people have been taught to look upon white men with abhorrence.... I can sympathize with the spirit which prompts the Typee warrior to guard all the passes to his valley with the point of his levelled spear, and, standing upon the beach, with his back turned upon his green home, to hold at bay the intruding European.”
—Herman Melville (1819–1891)
