Everyone should come out to the PA-MD Regional! Last year, this was the largest Regional in the COUNTRY with 30 participants! Make sure you're part of the biggest Tournament this side of Gencon.

Will be attending. May try to get inebriated to make up for my skill deterioration and probable lack of preparation in squad building.

So as we are about three weeks away from the PA/MD regional, I was thinking that the last time I drove back was probably a bad idea.  As I'm bringing #1 son along with me again; does anyone have a place for us to flop Saturday night or can someone recommend a decent hotel in the area? Also it happens to the Avengers release weekend....

I am 100% sure that I will be there. Is there anyway you could PM me your contact info @Darth Jim, I will be leaving TN Friday, and driving 10 hours to make it there in time for registration, I'm going to leave early enough that I shouldn't be in trouble if I hit a traffic jam, however I would like to be able to call if I do hit some trouble for whatever reason because I would hate to drive all that way only to miss registration or something like that haha. I'm brining another player with me, so you will have 2 from the TN group. Can't wait!

Circumstances have made it so that I actually have a good reason for driving 8 hours to come to this regional. I will be there, but I will start driving at 3 AM so y'all had better go easy on me!

Watch those speed traps too. Can't emphasize that enough.

Do you mean hills where a cop might try to catch you going too fast on the slope down?

Do you mean hills where a cop might try to catch you going too fast on the slope down? Yeah, they seem to like doing that as evidenced by the ticket I received last week inside a borough. If you have to go through a town to get to Lemoyne, just be wary of that. It's actually more of a problem for us PA players going up to NY. Both Darth Jim and I have gotten tickets in NY on the way to tournies.

Since it's its 8 hours from Cedarville to Lemoyne, and another 3 from Lemoyne to Delaware, would anyone be able to lend me a couch to sleep on Friday and/or Saturday night? I can cover food for myself if need be. I ask because I know its not uncommon for people to open their homes to those driving long distances for regionals, and I have to admit, it would be hard driving those last 3 hours home, arriving home after being awake for around 21 hours.

T-minus 4 days. This looks to be a rather populated regional.

If anyone has chessex dice boxes (the clear ones w/black lid that the dice come in when you buy them) that they're willing to part with, I'm looking for more of them to use as display cases for custom miniatures.

Matt Spry won (congrats) with an Imp squad (Wier, Tyber, Double Bubble and Stormies)
Jason (urbanjedi) was second with Mace in the Face
I was third with my Mace squad
Gerry (Darph Nader) was fourth with a Vong squad
I'm sure this will be further explained later, but there's the basics.
