Am I missing something? I have the new module. I am online now (15:30 EST) but no-one is online. It can't be over can it?

But the main event - 9pm for me with time difference. Four rounds of swiss on vassal? I am looking at not being done until maybe 3am. Not a chance. THe smaller events...maybe.

You made GenCon in 2012... or was it 2013? I remember that I played you. I'm playing in the Team Tournament and the Championship. I'd like to get some games in before then, but when I get on, Vassal is a ghost town.

I’m busy this week, but am often up for games!
The Summer is pretty free since I don’t go back to teaching until September and my summer gig is closed down due to Covid
Just shoot me a message

I am pretty sure you hooked me up with a booster of custom figures that I was meant to get, but missed the booster event because I was sleeping in my brother's car in a parking area after being kicked out of the centre at like 4am for being found napping too many times.

Use all 9 factions (not counting Fringe) across the 7 constructed events. For Royal Rumble you bring 3 pairs, so you get 3 factions in that event, which lets you get to all 9 factions.

Boy I sure wished Thrawn and Daala got banned as much as the 8th Cortex Shaper has been. I hear they have both been a lot worse, for a lot longer too. #free8thcortex

8th Cortex is well and truly broken in Tile Wars. Not sure why he got banned in 150, though. *shrug*
