Longest Night Tourney on Dec. 30?
Hey, so I'm looking ahead to the next two weeks and see that the last day that the DG is open in 2011 if Friday, Dec. 30. I'm wondering if anyone is up for the Longest Night that evening:
This might be an epic way (8-10+ of play going to perhaps 2 AM!) to cap off 2011!
Let me know if you can make it by posting below.
The Longest Night is an extra day added to the Iron Kingdoms calendar every three years at the end of the year, therefore taking place both after the old year and before the new one. It exists as an adjustment to bring the calendar widely used in western Immoren back into alignment with the seasonal year. Like any special occurrence, this is used as an excuse across the region for a wild festival including drinking, music, dancing, fireworks, and people dressing up like the dead.
While noted mostly for its wild revelries, the Longest Night also has an ominous supernatural reputation, as unusual events have been known to happen. Much of this is likely coincidental, but recent Longest Nights have certainly brought dark surprises, including the dead rising in Corvis in 602¬–603 AR. This year marks yet another Longest Night, and with war raging across the Iron Kingdoms there is no telling what things may go bump in the night.
Celebrate the Longest Night and the release of the epic version of one of the most iconic characters in the Iron Kingdoms, Alexia, Mistress of the Witchfire, in your store this October with the Longest Night Event Kit. Each kit includes a special edition medal for the event winner, a chilling Longest Night scenario "The Witchfire Ascendant," and eight special edition participation patches commemorating this historic event.
This might be an epic way (8-10+ of play going to perhaps 2 AM!) to cap off 2011!

I can only get a babysitter for this night (and not actual new years eve) so I will more than likely pass in favor of getting drunk.

I doubt I would be up for it. I too look forward to drinking with some friends.

I'm up for this. Sounds like a lot of fun and a good excuse to get a ton of games in!

All games are 50 pts. for this event. Could you field that much?

So, anybody else interested?
I don't want to have Dennis order a prize kit unless we have at least four folks for certain (right now its me, John, and Zach B.) The prize kit (which is really cool) costs $40 or so, so we'd need to have a $10 entry fee.

I could field 50 points by the 30th, depending on how long my Amazon.com order takes to ship (early christmas gift card). The shipping window is 4 to 14 days. Other then that I should have enough points by then.

What about the guys from Toledo? Did you know that they were showing up at that one event before hand?
Come to think of it. Is this place going to be the Local Forum for our region? If so, place the site address on your Press Gang business cards or whatever.

I did know they were coming. One of them announced it on the PP board.
My general feeling is that we should at least have enough local players present to make an event go off before planning and advertising it, especially if I'm asking Dennis to front money for prize support. If more folks come, that's great, but I want to avoid leaving Dennis in the lurch in terms of money if folks from far away can't make it (due to bad weather, etc.).
