Tournament!?
Hey, I know we are waiting on PP to respond to Zack's Pressganger request but there is nothing telling us we can't hold a tournament. Even if it is just the people we know personally we have well over enough for a good starter tournament, and if nothing else will be good practice for the tournament setting for all of us. Yay or nay? If yay, what is a good date? I am going to suggest the 17th of this month. That way we don't have to wait until after the holidays! Obviously there won't be any kind of prize support because we don't have pressganger status unless everyone wants to throw like 5 bucks in or even 1 or 2, but honestly I would rather just play for the experience and good times. Cheers.
Re: Tournament!?
I would be up for a tournament. 17th sounds good. so in short ya

Re: Tournament!?
Sounds good. Might also want to think about rules too (how many lists, format, time clock, scenarios, etc.)

I'd be up for a tournament that weekend. I think It would be a great way to meet everyone in the area too. Some of he scenarios can really change how the game is played to so a tournament like this could be a good way to get everyone used to playing with them. How many players do you think we could get?

Re: Tournament!?
I should know by Monday about my PG status; I have a "phone interview" with the Quartermaster from PP.
As soon as I'm approved, we can get Dennis (owner of the Dueling Grounds) to order some official prize support and prizes from PP. If everything lines up just right, we could get this together for a Steamroller by the 17th.
Depending on the number of players and the type of prizes that are offered, there should be an entrance fee. $5 a person should do it: the certificate and coin kit for 1st through 3rd place is $20. If we had the minimum of four, that would pay for it and any spillover would support the store for use of the space and help go towards promotional stuff like getting an official demo table.
Sound groovy?
I'll post more on this after my interview on Monday.

Hi all Shawn here, I found the rules for Steamroller tournements. Its a 36 page pdf file. Here is the link
http://privateerpress.com/files/Official%20Steamroller%202011%20Rules.pdf
If the address above does not work go to the Privateer Press website and look for organized play.
I am looking forward to this if we need terrain for the tournament I can bring some. I have a building or two I can use.
laters all

Re: Tournament!?
I just had my phone interview today and the PP guy said that I should know about my Press Ganger status by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. As soon as I know that I'm in, I'll put everything together for it and get Dennis to order a prize kit.
I'm saying that I'm 95% sure that we'll have a tourney at the Dueling Grounds on that weekend. As soon as I know more, I'll post it here.

Re: Tournament!?
OK, I'm officially the area Press Ganger (yay me!), so I'll put this together.
Would Saturday (the 17th) or Sunday (the 18th) work better for most of you? Let me know by Thursday, and I'll set the date with Dennis at the Dueling Grounds.

True that.
I'm wondering how many folks will be around in the week between Christmas and New Year's? I'd like to see if we could get a "Foodmachine" tournament in.

I'll be talking with Dennis tonight to confirm the date and hopefully to order the prize kit.
