This was a great event...no doubt. Plenty of things to do, tons of freebies to be had, a professional looking display with custom banners and brackets, a great display table that showed off the game very well. It was very cool that a handful of people that were just at the hotel kind of poked their heads in to see what was going on. I had a lot of fun with the gunslinging, I hope to do more of that in the future. Great job with the event guys, I had a GREAT time.

All in all, everyone who missed this event (THIS MEANS YOU MALFORM, YA BIG WEENIE! ;D ) missed out oh-so-big-time. *sigh* I knew this would turn out to be something to behold… And Im a tad bitter that I wasn’t able to attend. Im looking forward to the videos.

I second the *sigh* - but unfortunately, it proved physically impossible to be in Vancouver and Michigan at the same time, despite my best attempts at bifurcation. Sounds like this really was an event to behold!

So, Eric B. won? That's so rad. I believe that's the first time an adult who is not part of our site won an official tournament. I must presume he was given info on how to join us. Anyway, sounds like a great event. Hope to hear/see more soon. Go read the Web Of Webhead before he is forced to flip a wookiee. webofwebhead.wordpress.com/Ps What is Ewok Curling?

Ya eric as well as some others that came are not part of the forum, mainly because they don't have the internet. Ewok Curling This game was devised by merryamartyr and I the night before the tourney. We made up a very basic mat with a layout similar to a curling court and basiclly players use chief chirpa and 4 of his rocks to play a game of curling. It was rather fun.

Dagnabit, y'all took an idea I was hoping to toy around with for a subsidiary event with your Chirpa curling ;D I've the feeling I'll be in touch with you, notacomputer, over the next few months, as I'm toying around with the idea of having a tournament at a nearby gaming shop that has open gaming tables for such events. It sounds like having an actual event, rather than just a tournament, is really of interest, so I'd be interested in testing out "alternative" uses or games to play with certain figures that might not otherwise get much play.

Wow. I'm so bummed I couldn't attend, but I had this date blocked off for a trip with my dad for months. It sounds incredible.
The Ewok Curling is a great idea! I loved reading about it and the rest of the games/action.
How many people showed up to participate in the fun (not counting the on-lookers at the hotel who popped in)?
