** I regret to inform all travellers that my offer to have people from the forum stay at my home is no longer available starting May 5th. If you contacted me about coming to Orlando for a visit prior to May 5th, then my offer still stands.

Please PM or post if you plan on attending any of the tournaments.

Also, regarding this part of my previous post:

So that I do not have to sing You're So Vain if you think this post is about you, let me clarify.

Since I bought my new home in Florida 4 years ago, I have left an open invitation for Redemption people to come visit Orlando and stay in my guest room for free. My home has two Master Suites, so this was convenient. However, the major reason we wanted the second Master Suite was for my parents to stay in after they retire. My mother retired in January and my wife's mother retired in March. They will now be staying with us for extended vacations. My wife's mother will be with us for the next two months, while my mother with be arriving a week later to stay for 2-3 months, possibly longer.

Thus, I can no longer offer my guest room to Redemption people. You are still welcome to come visit. I can still try to arrange an impromptu tournament or casual game night. I can still try to get you into Disney. If you need a place to crash for just one night, you are welcome to use my sleeper sofa. However, please give me as much advance notice as possible since I need to accomodate the grandparents as well.

I hope you and your wife love your mothers a lot...I couldn't imagine having my mother or my mother-in-law staying at my place for that long (despite the fact that I love them both very much), but maybe that's partly due to the fact that I have no kids yet. I've heard grandmas make excellent babysitters...

They do indeed.

So that means you are coming on May 19th and June 16th!

----------------------

Did you guys have any plans for Florida State? If not, then I will put in a bid for June 29th and 30th.

I talked to them about it. No bid. Our group (or lack thereof) has been dissapointed due to loss of many members and participation. I think we only ran like 1-2 tournaments this year. And besides, it would be easier for the (3 i think it is...) of us to go up there rather than all of those kids to come down here anyway. (and the adults too i assume)

June 29th & 30th sounds fine. Friday nights are always tough for me to make on time since I have fellowship after work and then normally help my pastor with grocery shopping after that so most times I don't get home till about 7ish.

Is states confirmed for 29th and 30th?

Not yet. I was waiting for confirmation from my group about their availability. Their parents gave me that at yesterday's tournament. I will put in the application tomorrow.

It looks like Southeast Regionals for July 13 & 14 is a go, too, but I won't have enough money to put in an application until I get paid on May 15th.

entry fee costs?

For which tournament?

For my Local and District tournaments, I do not normally charge entrance fees. My general playgroup can not afford the fees, so I removed them to encourage attendance. Donations are gladly accepted.

For the State and Regional tournaments, I will likely have to charge a nominal fee, especially since you get a handful of promos.

Will South Florida Redemption be making an appearance next weekend?

I'm trying to rally the troops, but there's not much of a response for the District. They seem more interested in States & Regionals. I even contacted the Ft Myers crew, but no response as of yet.

Sounds good! I just got the official confirmation from Rob today, so I will make a thread about it soon. Let me know what schedule of events would best suit your group's needs. I can't make any promises, but I will do my best to accomodate as many peoples' needs as possible. The categories are T1-2P, T1-MP, T2-2P, TEAMS, and Sealed Deck.

I was secretly hoping that the newcomers Liza and Seth would win the TEAMS category so that I could say, "Frying Pans.... who knew !?!"
