Yeah, I'd really appreciate knowing within the next week, as I've gotta finalize my course's syllabus in that time, so I need to see when I'd need to plan not to have class on that Friday (or get one of my TAs to cover).

Oh, and another X-Date. Spring Break is the 23rd-30th of March, and it may not be too wise to do it then either as people will be taking vacations with kids and whatnot to warmer climes. The only reason I mention this is that a friend of mine reminded me about it last night - he is going to TN to "Pidgeon Forge", and I know a lot of folks are going places like that.

I'll throw my 2 cents in. In going to be out of the country from April 5-12th. Just doing my part to make this more complicated. I hope I can make it.

So no set date yet? Cause my family is supposed to go to that Star Wars thingy in Philadelphia,and it looks like if the tournament will be around the same time as last year I might not make it now

1. Will you attend TixCon 2008 if at all possible?
I suppose I will be dragged into it.
2. How many in your group, including non-playing family members?
I am apart of Defenderofwhatevers party, I am replacing Arduis who sadly killed himself due to moderator cruelty. May he rest in peace.
3. Would you be able to stay for two days of play (Saturday and Sunday)?
Absolutely not, I wouldn't consider it because of the expenses and the idea that many others may feel the same way, meaning the second day would consist of the forum moderators, they seem to not like my post.
4. Are there any other games you would like to see scheduled besides Attacktix and HeroScape?
Just Attactix, perhaps the secondary room can be dedicated to a variety of games like Insert Card Game here and HeroScape , it would be cool to have a LIVE custom event. Your all given the same figure (or bring it since things are so scarce) and you must turn it into the most interesting thing you can in 1 hour. - Gunslinger is a must, and Attactix figures on board games, like attacktix monopoly (every turn you can aim for another figure or that figures houses/hotels)
5. Are there any events from last year you consider a "flop" that we could do without? The Tournament needs revamped. Using the same figures but not being watched to use those figures, newbies like myself versus the Black Case equiped Attactix olympic team take the fun out of it. Lesser circuits breed lesser prizes, but atleast it would give the little guy a chance for victory.
6. Do you have any ideas for new events this year? Other than what I suggested above, someone (and I know it will be our fine moderators or the council who develops attacktix rules here) needs to bring a concise but short rule sheet that has concise penalties involved with breaking those rules. Names have been mentioned, thus order is required.
7. Would you be willing to volunteer to run an event or some part of the con? I would volunteer for grunt work, everything else would be so subjected to criticism I doubt I could contain myself.
8. Would you buy a TixCon t-shirt? No
9. What would you suggest to improve the event? Other than what I suggested above, the bring your custom contest should include a box art contest as well. If having a 2 day event is on your itinerary you will want to make this as dynamic as possible. If 1 day (which I project) you will wanna make this as dynamic as possible with allowable time constraints. I don't want to have to stop my gunslinger match to play a tourney game, so have a clear schedule on how that works.
10. Any other comments or suggestions... Since it is relatively impossible for me to find new figures unless I attack ebay I have a feeling that I cannot progress in this game. I am not alone, so those who wish to participate should benefit the community by bringing unwanted figures for trade or sale, thanks to this last year I completed my marvel collection, time moved too quick for me to start any other. Another cool thing would be gambling a figure on some of the tourney games. Not enforced in any way and must be completely mutual sure, but attactix are in a stale economic state, so those who have it should re-distribute it into the populous again.

A great idea, I know I'll be bringing my extensive collection of trade bait for any would-be traders that are looking for pieces to complete their collection(s). Since the game is on it's "hiatus", you're exactly right reallyniceguy, it is up to us to re-distribute the wealth of figures that many of us have accumulated. Any time there are new-comers to my group of 'Tix players, I'm always willing to hook them up with a batch of figures to boost their newly started armies. I hope this generosity is something other players can embrace, because, for the moment anyways, WE are all the Attacktix has.

Does this forum realize I live in Defender of New Paradron's basement? I sample Majicksomething or others fine cooking periodically? Do you know why they don't realize this, cause I don't pay rent.

If you did in fact live in my basement, one thing's for sure: You'd be the best darn free-loader in the land. ...You seem to have a lot of practice! ;D

Welp, my exams are all scheduled up; those are likely the only times I could reasonably go this semester, as I'll need to teach and create homeworks on the other Fridays. And for superfly, there are some of us for whom having it spring break means we could go, rather than prohibiting us from going - plus, spring break occurs at rather different times across schools Mine's at the beginning of March, not the end of it.

Does anyone know the exact dates, 'cuz I live in AZ and I go to a year-round school, and spring break is at a weird time. I'm hoping to go, it'll be my first OFFICIAL Attacktix tournament.

We'd love to see you there, but we're still waiting on Webhead817 for the TixCon 08 dates also. But fear not! Once the dates are announced, you'll hear it here first!

I'm just hoping that "Defender's Basement" is not some sort of analogy for something....hmm..more broke..back ROFL...

So,......when is this tournament happening? I think it was April last year and April is only 2 months away. We should probably start planning.
