I meant 1 I'd rather not play again because of sportsmanship. My list of players I don't want to face again because of the beatings I'd take is a lot longer!  |

Going back on thread, although in all honesty, this isn't an option for at least the foreseeable future, atm, if I had the money and time to fly to the US to attend a tourney, I'd be looking at Gencon as the first, Jim's florida tourney or Mel's, much more than the CC. A one-day tourney just isn't going to tempt me across the ocean.
Of course, if I can afford the flight, then the US tourneys are going to have to fight the Canadian tourneys for the pleasure of my presence. |

| Flying for tourneys is fun and all, but running an event isn't a competition. We shouldn't be competing with each other for people. I am a little worried that this sort of talk is going to discourage people from running there own tournaments. I am really glad there are high calibre tournaments out there, but if the NAF isn't getting its members to run smaller regional events then we are failing. |

Oh, don't get me wrong. If money was no object, I'd attend all those tourneys I mentioned above. It's just if it's a "one-tourney in my lifetime" thing, do I go to Canada to met the guys there, or the US to meet those guys?
And tbh, I'm really hoping to hold a small tourney sometime next year (because f the fun I had at the 2 Spikys and CamCarn). Just need to sort out which of the 2 groups I game with would be better to hold it with. |

I heard at the Chaos cup, that my MUMMIES were going to get back general access during tournaments, is this just a rumor, or does anyone know for sure.
Secondly, in a five game Gen Con Tournament do you think High Elves will do well.

Agreed.
However, even though only 6 players showed up last time ... I'm still going to run the Mayhem in April again Anthony. So while I think a major should worry about its attendance ... there are some tournaments I'm willing to run that will not be about attendance.

The NAF is here to support and promote BB tournaments, but they don;t all have to be huge events. A small tourney is as valid as a big one and we need to make sure people understand that. We don't want to scare people off because they don;t think they can live up to the biggies. |

| Well "The Challenge of Q'ermit" took on a life of it's own, but I was thinking of doing a smaller event sometime else in the year - probably the summer. "The Stunty Cup" was an idea that was being bashed around a bit. |
