Thanks for your patience and we apologize for the short notice. We hope to see many of you there.

EDIT
- Added start times for the big events.
- Updated with official information

Awesome, thanks for the info Erick!

These sound great now i hope i can get everything worked out so I can go

Will the side events be sponsered by UDE like the last megaweekend with the EAs and that sort of thing?

I know there are still some balls up in the air, but it would be helpful to know when the Sunday events are expected to start/end. I and others need to know if the main events are likely to be over in time to drive/fly home that night, or if we need to plan on staying overnight on Sunday.

Since you brought this up, I'm not averse to starting the Sunday event at 9am to give everyone more time. But players down here tend to complain about start times before noon (GET OUT OF BED SLEEPYHEAD!).

Is that a quote from Sister Act? That alarm clock given to Whoopi from the skinny hot nun?

EDIT: Back to topic. Is there going to be an entry fee into the tournaments individually, or just the full event? This will be my first time going to a "major event" for Vs, and want to make sure that I bring enough cash to fulfill my every need.

Fixed for clarification.

Will Mr. Reyes come down from his Ivory Tower for that one?

Why? I can pwn you from there... or through IM... or through email... or through postage mail... or through telegraph... or through smoke signals... you name it... you lose.

BTW: If NorCal wants to win... don't let Paul play on your team... HUUUGE handicap.

Good question.

Each event will have their own entry fee. Sealed events usually cost more than Constructed ones due to product cost.

I'll have that breakdown once we do the schedule of side events.

"Skinny hot nun" is the greatest thing I have read all day. I love you, Doomstat. I love you... more than friends.

:noid:

I will sit back and calculate the credit card expenses for a plan ticket from Oklahoma and back, plus room and board, plus entry fees.



I may not make it.

That would certainly help me (assuming that I am able to go). Makes it feasible to come out for the weekend without taking any time off work. I'm sure the NorCal guys who want to drive would agree.

I've added start times... note the early Sunday event time.

Would any of the out-of-towners be interested in splitting the cost of a hotel room, from Friday to Sunday?

Let me know....this weekend might be feasible for me after all.

a certain Maid might be angry. :nervous:
