I'm in. I'll probably help with a map too.

VitM,

Please put me down for a possible entry (probably yes) at this point. If I make it, you can count on me for maps as well. Here are a couple of questions:

1. Are you doing the same thing as the Reading event where you charge everybody $5 to cover the cost of the prizes with overflow going toward prizes at the last event of the series?

2. Are you strickly sticking with BOV maps or are you open to suggestions? I don't have anything in mind at this point, but I always like to see one or two different maps.

Agreed. I've been pushing for more diverse maps for a while now, and I would really like to see the more diversified trend continue. I could take a week or two and scout out a few maps that would be good too.

1. Yes I forgot to mention that.

2. How about using the Gen-Con Map list plus some others.

Great. Glad to hear that you weren't going to try to supply the prizes yourself.

I am all for a good mix of maps. Say if you used something like 8 BOV maps and 4 from other sources.

[clancampbell]

You can count myself and Xanth in. Of course, the sooner you can nail down a date, the better.

Interesting format.

[clancampbell]

I'll do fire isles. I love lava!

[spidysox]

You can put myself and Lil Spidy down for this one. I can bring 2 maps as well. Derelict and Ticalla Sunrise.

[NightSwipe]

Put me and Sensei down as a yes. I can bring Common Ground.

[NightSwipe]

A quick question from Sensei: he was wondering what would happen if you had two dragons that had the same point value. Also, what would happen if you had two dragons of a different point value, and the dragon with the lowest point value was destroyed. I did see the answer in the original post, but it didn't seem to help. Clarification is appreciated.
