As I make final preparations for the 1st Sun's Bane tournament in Florida, I would like to hear whether those who would travel would prefer:

a. game play on site at the hotel
b. game play nearby (6 miles from hotel) with transportation provided

I can cover one free night at the hotel (to accomodate early arrivals) but would like to have a fun place to play the games.

What do you think?

Don't matter to me, just playing in the hot sun if fine by me. When do you plan on having this tournament?

If the weather is nice, why not play outdoors in a semishaded area? That would certainly be novel.

The dates are March 13th and 14th - not too hot, but potentially windy. I'm thinking of having an after-tourney cookout on Sunday afternoon - steaks, corn on the cob and a baked potato to and of course some Beck's to drink. Perhaps the Sunday games could be played outside under cover with the proviso to move inside if the weather is nasty.

I am also looking a good name for the tourney...
In fact, let's make it a contest - I'll be the sole judge.

If the name selected is submitted by someone outside the Bitter Blood Bowl League of Tampa, FL, I'll send the author a $25.00 GW gift certificate.

Let the tournament naming begin (and any mockery of Disney is sure to be viewed with positive prejudice . . .)

"The Tragic Kingdom Challenge" - slogan "Dis Knee in Yer Face";

"The Swamp Rat's Stomp"

"The Warped Rat Tour"

"Kollision in Orklando"

Very good work for just a few hours - keep the names coming!

(Louis X in Paris suggested "The Diss Me Cup" where sportsmanship points worked backwards but that could get really out of hand!

"Dis(-located) Knee"? Wink

I opt for "Manhandle in the Panhandle." Like "Thrilla in Manilla," only a lot bloodier Smile

Though

Would look good on flyers as well.

How about Sun Dried Tomat.. no.. Sun Dried Tourney?
Blood in the Sun Tourney?
the Bloody Hot Bowl? (as a canuck, my fave Laughing )
The Blood, Sweat, and Tears Bowl
and as a homage to a fave band of mine, how about the Hot Action Cup? (from hot action cop)

More brainstorming to come later... Cool
