Hay every body

Hello I will be hosting a private game at my house in the up coming weeks and I need new cards for the members that are not part of the RPGA yet. I have try ed the link in the wizards help but this sends me to the MTG log in and I do not have accesses to that.
Is there another way I can get some blank cards for new players

On short notice, your best bet is to swing by a local game store or other location that runs regular magic (or RPGA) events. Chances are they have pads and pads of cards sitting around. Ask nice.

This confused me at first as well.

First question: Are you at least a Herald level GM? If not you will need to take and pass the test.

Once you have your Herald-level GM status, and if you haven't ever done so, log into your RPGA account and sanction the event(s) you have planned.

Once your events are scheduled, you'll notice a bunch of additional "Coordinator" memberships on your login page.

After all this you can follow those instructions to get RPGA/DCI cards that require you to sanction a Magic event and choose the "obtain PRGA/DCI cards" (or something along that line) option. I forget where, but you'll have to specify your shipping address. Once that request is submitted it can take a couple weeks to get the cards.

Hope this helps.

Sartredes is very close.

You can join at www.wizards.com/wpn as an organizer for the WPN. This gives you Gateway level so can organize games/events for all brands.

Log into your Personal Information Center by using your new RPGA/DCI number and password. You can find this link on the RPGA main page on the left under RPGA. Click Sign In or Sanction an Event.

Once logged in you'll see a membership cards and your personal account details. If any are incorrect you can change them here.

On the right is a box headed My Links. It's from here you'll do everything event wise. From sanctioning it to reporting and getting adventures.

For RPGA/DCI cards just click Event Sanctioning and then Next.
On the next page click the Magic Logo and selct the Event Type Casual Non-Rated Magic Event.
Click Next
You will now see a new screen with a new drop down box that should already be defaulted to RPGA/DCI Membership cards. Select this and then click Next.
Complete the ordering process and make sure to supply full shipping details as prompted.
lastly ensure to hit submit.

Once finished you can click My Events in the My Links box and check to see if the order went through successfully.

Hope this helps.

Thank you every one but saddly I cant get past WotC_Ian's step

"On the next page click the Magic Logo and selct the Event Type Casual Non-Rated Magic Event."

I keep getting this error message

"There is a problem with your request. Most likely you are not a coordinator for this brand or you have no public venues on file. Please contact your WPN representative for assistance."

Hope you guys can help me, or possibly some way to get a hold of my WPN representative, I have tryed to e-mail [email]DCI@wizards.com[/email] but that link doesn't work any more.

My event isn't for a few weeks so I don't have to rush on the cards but I would like to get my first game to go without a hitch any hints?

The way to contact the RPGA/DCI/WPN is now to use the 'Email Us' tab at www.wizards.com/customerservice

You do not have your location in your profile: if you are outside the Americas you may find an email address for a local DCI office who can send you cards here: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dci/sanction/tocontact

If you need cards within the next month, your best solution is to find a game store which runs Magic events and ask to get some from them, though - turn-around time for sending new cards out isn't very fast.

Hope that helps!
