I guess if some one has a quick game,they'd have time.

But don't take my word,I've never been to Nats,although I'm trying to go this year.

They already have a Settlers of Canaan tournament.

I think a Dominion tournament would be more compelling.  Takes less time to play than RISK.

Dominion presents its own interesting challenges though - Do you play a standard set? Or does each table choose the 10 each game? Or does each table choose a card and use that as a universal set throughout. Do you play expansions or not? Etc.

That being said I love dominion :) So I'd totally be down for that.

Race for the Galaxy is another fun game that you could do.

I love Race, but you'd better get some brain-burners at that table, it's not a game for the feint of heart, especially with all the expansions included.

For sure, and if you're playing take-overs :) Man that could get nasty.

Yep, agreed - I really hope Prestige grows on me, so far in the dozen games or so I've played I've really hated it. It serves only to make the rich richer.
