For me the fun after the BloodBowl event is the best part. So all the partying I did up at GenCon with OMM,Snots,Jay,Val ect ect... was a blast!
The beer fest after the Canadian Open & SPIKE were fun as well!
As far as the BB tournies themselves, well I kinda have a bias opinion on the SPIKE (winning isn't everything, but getting wins is fun  )
SPIKE & cANADIAN were both a blast, GenCon was also fun (I don't buy into the whole distraction excuses!)Gen Con is a 4 day event. The BB was only 2 days (& part days at that) so there was plenty of time to look around the CON after & before (& if your quick inbetween the BB)
The only tourney I didn't think that was well organised was the 2003 Gamesday BB Tourney Held in Toronto in AUG 2003. (I had fun, but it did not seem to run smoothly.) I did get to meet Da Scum, BUD, Anthony, Brian St. James, Ian Dundas for the first time, so that was cool! But all in all, I'm not sure if I'll attend another Games Day tourney again. (unless It's been months since my last BB Tourney ) |

That's exactly the problem. For someone like me who has zero interest in looking at the other games, there is no advantage whatsoever in going to GenCon. But for a lot of people who are going there, Blood Bowl is secondary to the Con itself. If people do indeed visit the Con before, after and in between matches, that's less people to talk to and hang out with. You also get people quiting the tournament right in the middle, which really takes away from the enjoyment. |
