Yippieh!
Are the rules the same as last year? Or did you implement the "everyone has to field at least six halflings" rule in the end?
Daggers - Dec 04, 2012 - 09:25 AM
Post subject:
HAHA, no halflings minimum rules this year. I updated the original post most to include team build. Once the rules set is complete, I will ask Eric to update the website accordingly. But the post above is a general synopsis of what is included.

Thats great you are coming Blank_page. As for accomodations, ones near by:
Bostonian Executive Suites http://www.thebostonian.ca/en/default.aspx
Best Western Plus Victoria Park Suites http://www.victoriapark.com/
Both of those are about 10 minute walks from the venue. Not sure about pricing, but I know one of the guys usually stays at the Bostonian.
If not, there are many in and around the downtown core, which is about 20-30 minute walk away. Hope that helps, and welcome back to eastern Canada.

You may bring your case to the board of directors and plead for the name change. But unfortunately, since no one else is supporting your accusations of unfairness, I am pretty sure everyone else is fine with you getting screwed over at every possible chance.
I am gonna start calling you jrock2.0, because all you do is whine whine whine, even when you winning....

What is this BS about jrock 2.0...First off Talons needs to win a few more tournaments before he is spoken about on my level 
Secondly, what you consider whining is irrelevant when your best tournament team happens to be halflings!! those inferior hobbits are annoying to play so often

For the people that have not been to CCKO before:
Skills Draft
After the third game, there will be a skills draft where coaches may select new skills/improvements. A coach may only select improvements which are accessible to their race through standard skill selection (ie normal, doubles or stat increase rolls on the improvement table). No player may gain more than two skills/improvements during the tournament.
Each coach will be given 45 seconds to pick a skill/improvement. If the coach does not pick within that time, they lose their spot and the next coach picks. The coach will get to pick a skill at the end of the round rather than at their selection time. Each coach may pick one skill/improvement per round. There will be four rounds in the draft; therefore each coach will select four skills/improvements.
The draft order will be seeded by tournament position at the end of play after the third game. Only tournament points from gaming will be used to determine ranking. The team with the lowest ranking will pick first and the other coaches will follow in reverse ranking order, i.e. first place will chose last, and last place will chose first in each and every round. The draft order will be the same for each round.
For each 12 players, or part thereof, there will be one full set of skills and improvements available for the draft. Because of the limited number of skills available during the draft, the lower ranked coaches will have a better chance to select the more sought after skills, (i.e. stat increases, block, dodge, guard), while the higher ranked coaches will be forced to choose less common skills. The result of this will hopefully give the lower ranked coaches a chance to make their way back up the ranks, and also result in less common skills combinations being selected.

Only one week to go, not long now. Woot woot....
There is still time to pre-pay, deadline is Wednesday January 16th. Also, you don't need to pre-pay to submit your roster. It just speeds up the registration process. So if you have a team/roster ready, but don't want to pre-pay, still email me the list so I can enter it in and verify its correct.
