Columbus Ohio Tournament February 24th (Old)

[weesel99]

A group of friends and myself were thinking of running a tournament towards the end of February or beginning of March. We haven't figured out all the specifics yet, but wanted to post to which date would probably get the most people there. The dates we were thinking were February 24th, March 3rd or March 10th. The structure will be much like funrun's for placing and such. We were thinking from somewhere between 450-500 point armies. We were thinking for prizes that 1st, 2nd and 3rd would get some sort of cash prize. It would be based on the number of people attending...1-10 people $50, $25, $5, 11-20 people $75, $35, $10, and 20-30 people $100, $50, $25. We were also planning to provide some HS merch and do the bring a prize or $5 entry fee to insure everyone gets a prize. Like I said we are not 100% sure on all the details as of yet, but wanted to post to see about interest in the tourney. Let me know if you'd be interested.

ChooChoo, jacob_jp, and I will all be helping out weesel99 for this event to.

We're pretty open to ideas for the tournament and are hoping to have most of the big details settled over December and January.

2 Words, Team Battles,



4 players, 2 teams, 250 points each, 14 starting zone places, with a 20 point share between team-mates.......oh wait, I'm thinking of someplace else,

If it's Feb 24th, I'll be there,

Hey, I'll actually come to this one. Any day should be fine.

[Devinnight]

I think I can be there any of those days, and bring at least one other.

Any of those days is fine with me - I'm good for all 3.

And a 2 hour drive definitely sounds better than 4.

We were actually tossing around the idea of a team tourney. What you said could possibly work. I figure it'll stay as a single tourney for now. But I would like to see some sort of team tourney in the future. Plus at only 250 points, only leaves me with 25 after I take Jotun. So if it's on the 24th you think you'll remember my hat

I love the idea of a teams tournament, it sounds like a ton of fun and it would really make some people re-think thier strategies. However, a few problems for logistics, what if we have an odd number of people want to come or people dont come because they cant find themselves a partner. How will the scoring and prizes be awarded? There will no longer be a first place, it would be a team that takes first and second. I see a lot of logistics problems for you guys that would have to be dealt with.

I think it would be better if I just mailed it,

Or we could have a small get together in early January, no tourny, just hang and play.

Dude, if you can make it, and there are team battles, I would be honored to be your team-mate!

[Euryon]

What is this "honor" of which you speak? Hmmmm.
For sure dude.
Im hoping an early feb. arrival; so I'll have to see where it all goes with the missus-to-be. May not be allowed out of the house for a few weeks though (havent seen her since April).

Actually, meant to ask: Whats the HS supply like in CH? My fiancée checked it out the other day, but they only had "Er, Samurai and these other guys, Orms Return - did I say that right? - and this other one with these little guys..."
Presumably you bought up everything else But do they get stuff in stock fairly timely, or does it entail round trips to other localities? (I think Circleville got a big walmart last year didnt it, if I remember right...)
