Well I was planning on drinking champagne out of the trophy, like the hockey teams do. Does that count?

Can we infer from this that you'll be using a hockey stick to mug whoever wins it in the parking lot? The forensics team will enjoy that...

(looks at trophy)...umm...not sure there is anywhere to even put champagne to drink on this baby

Well not now......the secret's out.

(Guess I'll have to go the old-fashioned route and just win the thing)

And Onacara, I was referring to the 50 pound monstrosity that DrLivingston's brother welded together.

Edit: Uh, Onacara, shouldn't that trophy be on its way in time for me, I mean, us DFW scapers, to gaze upon it at the tourney?

[Onacara]

It will be there...for you to look upon and cry when it leaves with someone else.

Since we have to be out of there by 5pm, the breakdown and prize distribution has to begin as soon as the 5th round is over. However, I still want to have a final match between the top 2 finishers.

Here is what we are going to do:

Once round 5 is over we will start the prize distribution. The current #1 ranked player will get first selection off of the prize table. The #2 ranked player will then get two selections off of the prize table. Then the #1 ranked player gets another selection off of the prize table. Those two players will then play the championship match for the title and the trophy.

Then starting with the 3rd rank player we go straight down the list until all prizes are claimed. This will be happening while the final match is taking place. We will also be tearing down and packing up during the final.

I realize this is a bit busy but it allows each of the top two finishers to garnish two prizes each. They will keep their selected prizes regardless of the outcome of the final match.

Make sense?

We have a potential problem here. Dicemaster's awesome battle tower is as for the Champion and is basically another trophy for the winner. However, the Heroscape tower that Imax is bringing is probably going to be just as coveted. I can't see letting the winner get both of these awesome pieces but I also can't see dictating that the 1st place finisher doesn't have a chance at the Heroscape Tower.


I am changing this up:


Once round 5 is over we will start the prize distribution. The current #1 ranked player will get first selection off of the prize table. The #2 ranked player will then get a selection off of the prize table. Those two players will then play the championship match for the title, Onacara's trophy, and choice of either tower with the second place finisher getting the unclaimed tower. The selected prize table items would remain regardless of the outcome from the championship match.


Double quoting myself...Aren't I cool?

Like at a bar? Is there a bar in that mall?

I wouldn't mind going to some place, drinking, and then complaining bitterly how I was robbed of victory...

"I had the glyph of Lodin and the Venoc Warlord and didn't frenzy once! Not once! And I lost to Podwest! I mean come on!"

Egads, Rodriquez!! Are you feeling okay!

[aahzmandius]

I are so hosed....I've got to trim down from nine potential armies to just one between now and Saturday.
Wish I had been able to make it to Rod's for some practice on Friday.

Anyone in DFW who doesn't work days wanna get some practice rounds in between now and the tourney?
