This sounds great! 200 point single elimination rounds will be fun to hear about, I wish I could go.
Will those who lose continue to play in any type of loser bracket? Just curious?
Everything sounds great, I do wish I could teleport there

This is going to rock! I cant wait!
Im a little disapointed with the 5 fugure max rule, thought it maight be cool to break out all 20 battle droids at one time... But like I really do understand, and I think its a good rule.

I agree in the disappointment at the "no more than 5 duplicate figure" rule - but then again, that would be because the 20 Jedi Knights would take great pleasure in pwning your 20 Battle Droids Wish I could be there!

After talkng with some folks, I figured that 20 battle droids or Jedi Knights or whatever would be an unfair disadvantage to those who perhaps do not have the financial resources as some of the luckier (or more talented) players. I figured that the tourney should reflect a level playing field based upon skill. I mean, there's a REASON that the Yankees are always in the top 5. They have the money to buy the talent. Someone with 20 battle droids playing would, in my opinion and those who I've spoken with, represent an unfair advantage to those who perhaps do not have the money to trade, buy or otherwise acquire them. Let's see who's the best player, not the best businessperson or barterer. And I DO have quite a few BDs and JKs (although NOT 20) and I'm excluding myself from that as well.
As for the "Loser Table", I've got a BUNCH of tables where anyone can play. Make side bets, do whatever y'all want at that. I've got quite a few prizes planned, so there should be a good incentive for everyone. I'd like to have some warm-up games as well, so people who've been driving (like ME) for a couple of hours to get there aren't at a disadvantage either.
Sorry if I piss anyone off about the 5 per unit limits, but it's my dime!

I thought the Yankees always won cause the other teams can't stop staring at those pinstripes.
Tourney sounds cool, I'm gonna try to be there (long drive though, any distcounts for out-of-staters? )

A new turn of events has come up, and as you see above in the original post, GETTING IN THE DOOR IS NOW FREE! Playing in the tourney, though, will cost you 5$. This is to offset the cost of the special, uber-prize....
Also a clarification on the rules:
The 5-same-figure limit is only for the EXACT SAME figure; 5 S1-4 Clone Troopers and 5 S1-5 Clone Troopers is valid, whereas 10 S1-4 Clone Troopers is not, as it infringes the rule. This was to avoid stacked teams like 20 Jedi Knights, or 10 Kit Fistos or 20 Battle Droids....

Odds are looking good I'll be there as well.
Are Series 4 figs going to be legal for this event? It's pretty scattershot right now as to who will and will not have access to them.

They're on Ebay, in stores, and as long as NO TRANSFORMERS show up, I rule them as legal. Sucks for those of us who don't have them, but rules are rules!

Good points.
I'll probably have some TF figs together for a side game at least.

Clarification on Rules: Someone PM'ed me about this so I figured I'd share. All strikers with one free hand, like Yoda, Tion, Agen, Royal Guard may be glued into place. I see no problem with this due to Hasbro's response:
Q: Can I glue my Yoda's other hand on to his lightsaber? A: Yes, you may glue Yoda's other hand to the lightsaber. Add glue neatly and carefully and he will still be Tournament legal. [HASBRO]
Q: My new Grievous Bodyguard feels stiffer than my older one, why is this? A: Hasbro has revised two figures from Series 1: Grievous Bodyguard and Yoda. The Bodyguard was made with a stronger grade of plastic, and Yoda now comes with his right hand glued to his lightsaber.
Good enough for Yoda, good enough for all of them. Otherwise, YodaBreaker's UnOfficial Tournament Rules apply. I will have a FEW copies there, but if you are the type to get mad about "I didn't know the rules", read up in this forum on his Tourney Rules. It's actually a phenomenal document.
