Hey bitch!!!!! I believe a tourney in Kitchener can make a splash......you might even find that the turnout could be better than years past. We might see a few more Americans make the trip as it is about 2 hours from Michigan. Either way I will be there if I can get the weekend off.
As for rules......just pick ones that will allow me to win.......lmao |

| I HATE to agree with Spazz, but I think he has some valid points all around. Especially the 5 game format. 4 in one day can be grueling for most players (for me only if I'm losing). It also cuts down the socializing on Saturday night which to me is the most important aspect. Even if it is with Canadians. |

Have you tried less coventional places
shops for lease (you are only getting 2/3 days so
Most owners will love the under the table cash
bowling alleys or anything with a room
Depending on time of year a park |

| You know what, if you have it in Kitchener I can almost guarantee that I will be there. It's been too damn long. What dates are we talking? If you want a free space and you don't mind going a little further, there is a new game store in town thats clean and has a huge gaming room. http://thegamechamber.com/ |

Can you please post links to the two sets of rules?
I could look them up, but then as you have asked other people to comment on them, it may just be better to have them more easily accesible |

I don't have a car, so outside Toronto, I'd have to hitch a lift with someone. That wouldn't stop me coming though.
My availability for the tournament is entirely not based on the distance, given as its so close anyway.
Why are star players disallowed? 
I never found them overpowered (quite the opposite in fact).
This is not at all motivated by the fact that my high elves are themed around being Prince Moron's body guard  . |

Thanks for the link, I was about email you about this years rules so as to compare the 2 rule sets.
For reference the 2011 rules can be found here: http://rubli.ca/Canadian_Open/DOCS/CO_rulebook.pdf
BTW I apologize for my recent silence; been working 12-hours days at the office for several weeks and being on a computer was the last thing I wanted to do when I got home.
However, I will mention that the CO is being planned to be held in Kitchener, ON; just working out the details with the rental space.
BUT, there is a recent wrench in the works that may derail the whole operation. I will share more details as they solidify this coming week.
Change is the law of life.
And those who look only to the
past or present are certain to
miss the future.

Alright . . . it has been more than a week since I promised an update . . . but, the whole situation did not become real until about 24-hours ago.
The short-and-long of it is that I will be moving to Vancouver, BC in January. As such, I will not be able to run the CO in 2013. That being said, if any of the Ontario/Quebec crew want to run it in the upcoming year let me know.
In terms of the future of the CO in Ontario, that will be open for discussion later next year. |

You will be missed Eric, good luck man....
The Hobble guys in Tristans league were talking about running a tournament as well, I can ask them if they were serious and get them in touch with you. |

| It would be great if Rob or somebody else would host it in 2013. If nobody volunteers, I'll do it again. |

Will we see you at the CCKO?
The Thunderbowl guys have a beer league that plays more casually, if you are looking for games. Where abouts are you headed in Van? |
