Euclid (#ScottishMeta)

Paid up.

Ticket purchased. 

I am looking forward to this

Would prefer GG17 if attendee preference is of interest.

Wave 4 allowed? Aww man now I need to find me some Parker Barrows proxies...

I've enjoyed the podcast so far. Listened to all episodes bar #2. Anyway feedback -

Sound good? - I do generally need to turn my volume up to hear Ben. The guest and aaron are usually a little louder.

Aside from myself, the best guest is a bit of a cop out as it coincidences with best episode - #9. The panel. That episode was great!

More coverage?  I dunno. Tbh I enjoy the tactical discussions and the rambly fun episodes.

New store?

Won't be able to make it along for the demo evening, but when is the first tournament planned?

Cuddle pistols? I typed n-e-r-f! Although cuddle pistol sounds awesome

With everything that happened in the last fortnight I was delayed in trying to organize my initial idea, so sadly we won't have really nice wooden faction statues.

We will however have some totally not last minute grabbed from wherever nonsense. Totally not sir! (I almost bought 7 cuddle pistols to paint faction colours yesterday, who knows what I'll end up getting)

32 Paid up attendees. Wooop!

If possible pay in advance. If not possible you can pay Steve at the store or if you cannot beforehand it will be possible to pay on the day.

People paying on the day will not be guaranteed tokens/counters if I run out.

Happy to have players of any level along. This even will guarantee another 5 games for you at the least

Attendee list updated - 23 players!

And thats with a decent number of people yet to pay.

Oh... and the team prize may be determined on more than just gaming results....

Entrant List updated. Looks like I'm going to need to start harassing the Locals to pay-up....

Also... I'll do the team prize. At registration I'll take down your main gaming club/team. I'll then use maths wizardry to rank you all and chose my favourite determine the winning team.

Sorry for the temporary absence - I'll be getting back onto this now!

Attendee list up to date, and I'll be turning up on time now! First goal unlocked! 

Another thought that has crossed my mind... We have a few different "teams" planning to attend - maybe there should be an additional prize for best team... I'll have a think about this more, but its certainly an idea I'm entertaining. 

Up to 9 paid entrants. So close to me turning up on time!

Yeah it would always be one tournament. A one day ticket would be for people who cannot make both days, allowing them to join in on the 3 games on the Saturday. Although this would then cause issues on the Sunday with an uneven number of players. I would personally not like to do this but if there are a lot of people wanting to come just for the satuday.... then I'd more likey run a second tournament for those players. Yeah.. I've just talked myself out of it. This is a two day tournament.

I'll get a list of attendees paid and interested started tomorrow.

I'll think about one day attendance.  It might be more harm than good, plus there is a damn decent hostel in the city about 15 minutes walk from the venue where I'll likely be staying. 

That would be fantastic Mike.

Glad there's plenty of interest. The store can fit 80 folks easily enough so plenty of space for gaming.

Malifaux is a very unique miniatures game where most people create their crews before each game once they know the terrain layout and their opponents faction etc. Because of this crew lists aren't usually a useful tool as they can vary wildly based on the schemes available or the terrain set up.

Sorry, been off the forums for a while.

I was planning to release schemes/strats in advance and have 2hr rounds so that there was no rush for newer players.

I am considering limiting it to fixed master as well but I'm not convinced that this does anything!

Not yours alone it seems. Fair amount of interest from nearby folks.
