godswearhats Posted August 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 That could be arranged! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godswearhats Posted August 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 After some discussion with players from across the region, I've changed Round 4 to be Guard the Stash rather than Reconnoiter. If you're curious as to why, you can read the discussion thread yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a number of hotel / motels just within walking distance. They are pretty cheap and basic but reasonably reputable if you stick with a brand name (Travelodge, Days Inn). Other than that, I know a few people are looking at AirBnB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godswearhats Posted September 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Just wanted to let everyone know that Green Lake Games (who helped secure the gaming space) will also be sponsoring the tournament with some gift certificates that will be added to the attendee prize raffle! Given that they are just across the street from the venue, lucky winners will be able to take their certificates and exchange them on the day :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godswearhats Posted September 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2016 Additional sponsorship has come from Secret Weapon Miniatures (custom bases!) and Portable Warfare (miniature storage!) for the door prizes. Also wanted to remind everyone that this is the last week to get tickets at Early Bird pricing: $25 vs $30 come October 1st. There are only 10 spots left so get your ticket soon!
