I mentioned this to a couple people who went to Nats. I think that our next tournament should be a two day district, with a format similar to how we ran States. I enjoyed all the time spent with everyone, including non-Redemption time. With so many people coming from an hour or more away, the more time spent there, the better. I don't know how other people feel, but those are my thoughts.

I'd be up for something like what Chris is talking about. I'm not sure if I'll be available in September, though - I know I'll be home for a four day weekend at the end of the month, but there's a bunch of other stuff I'll probably be doing closer to home. My high school's annual benefit auction is that weekend, plus a good friend of mine from Ephrata will be leaving for South Africa soon after that weekend and I'd want to spend some time with her. So I don't know what my schedule's gonna look like then, but I'd be around.

October, on the other hand... Except for the first two weekends, I should be able to come down. Can't guarantee Friday night though, work's a little uptight about scheduling new PTO at the moment. For a district, I'd try to bring a friend or two again, local would probably just be myself.

I'd love a two day thing. I really enjoy spending time with all of you, and the non-Redemption time was fun too.

I'll have to keep you updated on when.

My thoughts were planning a small local first and then something bigger. Maybe this time I won't have to be in 5 different places this tourney.

We can do a small local anytime but with this much desire for a 2 day event I can help you plan and host if you'd like

I'm moving 4 hours away and will have no social life for the foreseeable future; but if I were to come to events, it would only be on Saturdays - unless Friday nights started at about 9pm.

(but as an aside - I'm hoping to start a playgroup in south central NY and may look to PA/MD to help get things moving once people become interested and stuff. but thats several months away.)

Cnakeeyes · « **Reply #7 on:** August 18, 2014, 10:43:08 AM »

I work every other weekend so I would need to know ASAP.

Where are you are in South Central NY? My friend lives in Elmira and I'd love to come up and visit.

Back on topic it looks like October is the best time. And going off of everyone's input its a tie between a saturday event and a two day event. I would just like to have a small local event on Saturday, but later on this year of beginning of next year we can have a two day redemption-thon.

Chris · « **Reply #10 on:** August 20, 2014, 10:32:38 AM »

Based on this thread, I see no reason not to just start with a two day District. We'll just have the most popular categories Saturday, and anyone who can only attend that day can still play what they want to. For those who can make both, we can have less popular categories and other games on Friday and people can come when they can.

Chad mentioned 10/17-10/18 how does that sound to everyone?

That could potentially work, I'll have to see when Gretel was planning her pie party with her fellow teachers though.

Obviously a pie party should wait until 3/14...

P.S. I'm already starting to wish I could come to this if it happens...

It would be sweet if you guys were coming we would totally go for all the categories if you were coming.

Perhaps John and His crew and Roy and his crew would join us as well.

As of right now, that would be a pretty great weekend for me to come out.

Well...not sure about that one...

I would have to check with Bill, but I'm pretty sure we had some districts with 50+ people a couple years ago.

That would fall on a weekend I have off. so works for me.

to_to_toriquah · « **Reply #20 on:** August 20, 2014, 07:10:32 PM »

There is a good chance that I will be in Lancaster for a teacher conference the 16th and 17th.... hmm... If that doesn't change, I might just be able to make a tournament that weekend.

jbeers285 · « **Reply #21 on:** August 20, 2014, 07:22:55 PM »

Looks like the mob has spoken 10/17-10/18 it is barring any disagreement from Chad. He and I can talk out a plan for that date but I'd assume it's safe to put it in the schedule with a pencil! :-)

If this happens I can potentially attend just will need transit from Harrisburg/York or Baltimore depending but will be trying to finish up and play new t2 2p decks

That would be great to have you. York is by far the best pick up point for anyone from hanover

Dates are unofficial until I get approval from Rob. Next topic......categories.

I mentioned to Josiah about an ultra booster (tins with Disciples, temp, and early church). Then we could run the t1 and t2 2P with or without multi. Maybe splash in teams?
