This sounds really fun, I might have to try and make the trek out. pastorbudwine@mac.com wrote: Prizes: 1st - Trophy, 60% of Profits & Custom Mini 2nd - Trophy, 30% of Profits & Custom Mini 3rd - Trophy, 20% of Profist & Custom Mini Sportsmanship Award - Trophy & Custom Mini Plenty of Door Prizes as well!
Small point - the cash prizes = 110% of profits. Is that a typo or is the store kicking in an extra 10%?

Good news, the Friday Night Follies are on at Chez Nader!
We'll be starting as people arrive in from work/out of town and go until sleep is required. If you're thinking of traveling in from out-o-town send me a PM, as there will most likely be more than enough room to flop at Chez Nader.

What are the chances of having another event on the Sunday? Maybe Epic 500, or something like that. Driving all the way down for one event (plus some non-chalant stuff on Friday night) seems like it might or might not be all that worth it. I'd love to have another event to play in while I'm there. Is there a possibility of something on Sunday?

That sounds awesome Trevor! but as I understand it, pastorbudwine will be holding the event at his church, so Sunday at the church, could be the issue. Maybe, we can find a different, nearby venue, to hold an Epic 500 on Sunday. I'd be will to donate some prize supprt for that event as well. I'd luv some 500 action, since I missed out at GenCon , because of playing in the finals.

I would be willing to run something on Sunday, I'll check in on the Jester's Cap to see if they could accomodate us depending on the # of players.

That's excellent! Thanks Gerry.
I'd be all up for some good 500pt craziness!
If timing is a factor, we could slightly adjust the format so that you gain a 3pt win by scoring 300 or 350 pts, rather than the regular full amount. [I do think it would be valuable to award 1pt to the loser if he/she scores more than 200pts too.] This would allow the games to be just 60 minutes, rather than the 90 that was used at Gencon.

Yes, lots. Just ask my wife. Seriously, I hope we can make this work; if we're all together for SWM anyway, then we might as well play another tourney if we can.

It will work if we have the Players, we'll just have to wait and see how things shake out.

I'm gonna do my best to make it. Assuming Nader can give me floor space to sleep on. And perhaps I can convince Nuthenge to come too.

Of course, there is plenty of room! I would make sure for those of you Kipling at Chez Russell bring your inflato-mattresses.
