when works for you all? lets do this in Feb, I may be going up to Portland sooner, but for times sake, lets make a plan for this the last weekend of Feb? what you all think? this will give all you Washington players time to get rides down, build decks and will get us a location and time off work


I say lets make this a cash tournament?

lets say we have a 6 dollar charge, and top three split it 50%-30%-10%?????
and the last 2 get 5% each? this would be great!

We should already have 6 from Oregon-Vancouver? i am sure that a few others will come down from Seattle!!
Harpster, Werfs, Joe, Siebring? I may be able to get a few others from the area as well if people have decks they can bring?

I know of John Greer and maybe John Hawkins...

Ok, its official, ill definately be there! This'll be my first out of state trip to play swccg, does this mean I am about to cross a line to become an official "serious player"? I guess ill have to ponder that.

What you need is a good reason other than SWCCG to cross state lines, then you can say "oh, my Dad lives up here." Then it's not suspicious when you drive four hours to a tournament. Even if your father doesn't know you're coming and you just stop in to go to the jon and grab a sandwich.

That's how I've stayed a Seattle "local" for so long but live in Corvallis. Speaking of, looks like no Seattle tourney in Feb so I'm down for anything in Portland.

Why not a $10 charge? Might as well make it interesting. Maybe that would put some juice in these leagues.

Ok, if this was in Seattle would it still make good player turn out?

remo! yes! i need to see you again! mostly because i owe you money! lol

the 27th and 28th are out because another player cannot make it.

I will be in Montana the 8th tell the 15th, or so its planned.

it looks like the 20th or the 21st is best, Ryan may not be able to make the 21st unless we have it start in the after noon.
So how do we do this?

Should we do this on the 20th? or look at moving it to Seattle for a larger turn out? my wife wants it in Seattle so she can spend time with her family!

If in Portland we could have up to 6 players all pending on how many Remo can bring and pending on the day.
If in Seattle we can have many more all pending on how many Oregon players are able to make the drive.

What think ye?

I can make any Saturday either in Portland or Seattle, but not Sundays. Gotta watch the kids while my sugar mama works. And I can only bring myself.

hmmmm. maybe we should just have it in Seattle? say the first part of March? who would be able to make it? on the 6th or 7th? i know the sixth is Raule Huntsmans birthday, but i have not even seen him in over 8 years from band class. and the 13th is my birthday so i may be in Portland at that time...

any way, so how it looks for 6th or 7th in Portland or Seattle?

come on Matt, are you sure you can not make it for 7th day of the week game? Remo and Ryan can not make it on the 1st day of the week. so Sundays are almost out.


Ok perhaps this month wont work...

Possibly, though I wouldn't count on it. The dedication level around here has been very low lately. But I can definately try.
