Nats 2010

Did people like nationals in 2010? Was it good or bad compared to others and the turnout of people. How did it compare to others? For those who didn't go did you here good things about it or was it just one of those just nationals that no one will remember besides the winners. I don't have much to compare it to so I was wondering.

I think each Nationals has its own personality.  It was my third Nats, and I enjoyed it.  In my mind, nothing will compare to my first Nationals though, for various reasons. 

Of the three Nationals that I've been too, I think it was the smallest one.  I don't know official number comparisons to say for sure.

I think it was a good Nats.

That's where you can find all kind of data on nationals - Attendence of 103, which is decent, more than Cali, less than Ohio.

I have been to 5 National tournaments, 03 in Pitt, and then 07-10 (KC, Ohio, Cali, Boston) I don't have them ranked in my mind - but Boston is up there for sure, the fellowship was great, Boston is a good city - the facilities were a little small in my opinion, but large enough for the amount of people we had.

I have been to NY, KC, Cali, and Boston. KC was of course my favorite because my whole playgroup went. Cali it was just me, and Eric and we met Kirk there, but Boston it was just me and I met Kirk there. NY was second favorite because it was my first nationals, a good turnout, and a lot of my friends were there and I met new people. Cali and Boston were good but not as good as the others, I always love seeing all my friends and ranking in multiple categories makes it memorable, but the turnout was not as great. Boston and Cali I was short on money, the night before I left my transmission in my car went out and I would have to buy a new car when I got back, and Boston I forgot my returning ticket and had to pay ALOT for a return flight plus school started the next day and I had to buy books. So I think there are a lot of factors. Boston was great, just due to factors that no one can help, NY/KC were a little bit more fun to me.

My most memorable was Nats 2008...something about a ring and an illegal card and a pretty girl affirming something to me... :P

Boston makes number 5 for me (Pittsburgh, New York, KC, Ohio were the other 4)...

I would appreciate having lodging and the tourney location in the same place so that we are not wasting time doing crazy travels...ample food opportunities would have been nice, but the church team did their best to take care of so many hungry people in Boston...However, I am looking forward to seeing this uber huge nats turnout that I hear about...

Each Nationals has it's own flavor.  It's like asking "do you like Rocky Road, Cookies and Cream or Moose Tracks ice cream better?"  To that I say - my friend, it's all ice cream.  Delicious!

Boston had it's strengths and weaknesses, just like every other Nats I've been blessed to attend.  And like other years, I saw that John (the host) and those helping him were aware of the weaknesses and worked hard to overcome them as best they could.  They also knew their strengths and capitalized on them.  They did an amazing job and went out of their way to show hospitality that was reflective of Christ!  I can't say that Boston was better or worse than any of my other Nationals.  It was a unique experience.  One I will not soon forget!!!

It was my first, and I had a blast.  Being low on money doesn't help.

Well I don't think it was one of the best because I wasn't there.(JK)
By looking at all these recent posts I think that overall it was good but not the best.
