Prizes are en route or in my grasp already.
There are 3 teams (1 by Phil 2 by GW), one of the rare BB.net minis, Silibili, the new Varag, 2e troll 1, 2e Ogre 2, a few BB Big Guy blisters, a NAF shirt, and a special surprise for our last place finisher.
More importantly we'll have a lot of fun playing the game we all love!
Hope to see you there!!

Is anyone else getting nervous about all the Democrats running about crowding the city. This is my first time to Boston and I ve already heard enough traffic horror stories... how bad will the DNC make things? I m hoping they re all leaving town as we arrive (and that the smell of dirty hippies doesn t linger). |

The DNC ends on Thursday, so while some who arrived for the DNC will linger most will have left. |

....and back to the Beantown tourney.
Does the winner get to keep the trophy Mel or is the hand a legacy trophy like the DeathBowl axe or the TKC Stump? |

The Hand is intended to be a legacy trophy for The Beantown Brouhaha, but if it's someone I know that I'll get it back from, they can take it with them and return it for next year. I intend to put the coach and team name engraved on the base and go around in a ring and then add a ring years from now when needed (a la the greatest trophy in sports; The Stanley Cup).
There is another trophy for the Champion to keep for all eternity though |

I ll add that if it was the GOP in town I d complain about the chance of being shot by a right-wing gun nut while stuck in Boston gridlock. I m an equal opportunity insulter.
I m still really hoping that most of convention crowd doesn t hand around through the weekend. I m still terrified of the traffic.
Also, gken, this may be too late for you, but Zinak and I may have some floor space for rent. We have reservations at a Havard Yard hotel Friday, Sat and Sun. |

That's the special surprise for the last place finisher...
We cut off their hand with the ceremonial apothecary blade, and make the winner a brand new, ONE OF A KIND, trophy... and the LPF get's to keep the stump. |
