Hi Jay! It's good to be back soon in Western New York. I'm the new Commander of the Brigade Special Troops Battalion in Buffalo. Havn't decided where to live yet, but I expect I'll be moving in the fall. I'm still working on my cursed IG...although I can field huge numbers, it's just not the perfect Armored Cavalry Regiment yet...so hopefully once I get settled Anton and I can start getting games in with everyone. I'll call hobbytown.. John Burke

Anyone interested in carpooling? My truck doesn't have great gas mileage, and i'll help pay for your gas!

....that sounds like it changes an awful lot. They expect us to show up 2 days to play? so drive 60 miles there, 60 miles back, twice? Thats not going to happen.

I PM'ed him to find out how we should handle it, but not sure if he will get back to us by then. I suppose we can have our own qualifiers this week here, cause driving there twice is definitely not happening. Worse case I can call my game against Chris Sunday my qualifier and give him my spot.. Who knows though I will keep you all posted..

Yeah given the distance it would be unreasonable to expect you to travel to Buffalo to play a qualifier. If you give me the names of all six players, I will randomly match you guys up for your games. Once each game is complete just send me the names of the winners and I will make sure that a spot for each person is held. Your group will have a max of three spots open. The games should be played with your tourney list, max time limit of 2 hrs or to the completion of 5 turns which ever happens first. Games should be played on 4 x 6 tables if possible.. So this sounds like what we will do, I will give pairings when I give them, we can work around time conflicts if needed. Is everyone going to be there Thursday to discuss?

Sigh, i was afraid this was going to happen after i talked to Ron on sunday. He mentioned then that at the last tournement they only had room for about 5 tables and one was severely squased into a corner...
If that's the case i'm set to bail on this plan. I wouldnt' mind playing a couple normal games at the normal places instead...

Huh. So much for traveling to buffalo for a tourney. There's a load of pressure off.
