Okay. So I was looking at the tournament list for the 2012 year. (And seeing Nats in Knoxville makes me happy.) I happened to notice a state tournament in Canada. (Well, state level.) This got me thinking: what if we had a Nationals tournament in Canada for a change? Granted, I'd never be able to make it, but it would be really cool to have an international tournament of sorts. What do you think?

That would be a terrible idea. Canada isn't particularly strong in terms of playgroups, so not a lot of people would show up from Canada. And it'd be expensive and a huge hassle for many of us from AMMUUUUURIKA to go, with getting your passport/exchanging currency/whatnot.


Also, I don't know the metric system. Seriously. Even for mass, I use slugs. I suppose it doesn't help that my physics teacher puts everything in slinches and barleycorns to troll everyone.

IN AMERICA!

You're closer to Maine and Canada than at least 95% of the Redemption community.

Canada requires a passport now, or at least an enhanced Drivers license if you're from NY. That's an extra 30-50 dollars if I remember what each of those cost correctly. Not to mention the distance for everyone south of say Pennsylvania. Maine doesn't require a passport but it's far too remote. I might go to a Maine Nats just because I know it will have a horrible turnout, and be much easier to place because of that, but that pretty much sums up why Nats shouldn't be in Maine.
