I just realized this is Preakness Day and I’ll be near Baltimore lol. How about we explore a 10-11 AM start 😜

Sweet! And the event is now live on .org. I should have the core of the map pool posted early next week as well.

If I win the diplomatic roll-off, can I then choose to place 2nd?

Awesome, see y'all then! For the diplomatic roll-off, you do not get to choose if you go first or second (you of course do choose what order you place your three OMs though).

Glad you can make it! Hopefully your presence gets Dad out here too!

Xiegfried, Shurrig and I played this format last night, and I might recommend choosing maps that have a straight front edge to the start zone. We found it was much easier when we could just draw 2 lines and say, "diplomats are placed between these lines" like on Battlefield 23, than the not-straight lines that come from a map like Canary.

That's a good point, I'll keep that in mind.

~EL, frowning in consternation and concentration.

No problem, let me know whenever you know

I’m in! This format is whack. I’ll see if any of my friends want to come.

Also disc golf first. It should be a perfect day for it.

Edit: And I’m not your father!

I challenge you!

We should have a disc golfing tournament before every scapers tournament so all us gamers can get some fresh air in our brains before nerding out.

Excellent! I get @GucciiBoost and you can have @JohnnyFrisbee .

I think we did 10:00 last time and it left time for lunch before the tourney. Calvert Disc Golf, for those who don’t know. See you then!

And just kidding about teams. All are welcome. I’ll have plenty of discs for new players if they want to try, too.

Dang lol...I'd totally come if I lived in the area! Sounds legit. If I'm ever in town I'll make sure I schedule it for one of these weekends :P

I'll be bringing a +1 with me, and I can also bring the Receding Waters map

Awesome! And thank you, I appreciate it!

[Dad_Scaper]

I haven’t seen Robber in at least 10 years, I don’t think. Wild.

Looking forward to seeing everyone Saturday!

Come to nearby Calvert Disc Golf Course at 10:00 if you’re interested!
