WV is part of the East Central region:

celeres, I (and my playgroup) would totally come to your Regionals (and I would lend my help and support) if you have it with the one condition.

  The 1 condition: You don't have it the weekend of my sister's wedding.

I have no Regionals to go to right now, so I would love it if you tried to have East Central's Regional.

I'd try to hitch a ride with you guys then, if that would be acceptable. :)

Roy,
 
My location is Fairport, NY just southeast of Rochester. 




Any news on regionals, I am hoping to go but need to take those dates off soon.

I wish Kayleigh and I could make the CT States this weekend, but things came up. Hopefully we'll be able to attend Regionals!

Circumstances have ended up that I may be able to make NE regionals this year. Fingers crossed.

Is there anyone from West New York or West MA planning on attending that I could meet up with? My mother may go up to Chesterfield, NH, but Lynnfield is 3 hours out of the way, so if I could cut that down by hitching a ride with someone (I could contribute money towards gas) that would up my chances of going considerably.

Sweet.  Now that I know the schedule I think I will be looking for a teammate for teams.

To anyone who knows:

I'm probably going to attend Regionals, but I'm still figuring out in what capacity. (Unfortunately, Kayleigh's having her bachelorette party thrown for her that weekend, but at least that means I'm very much free to do whatever.) The Friday events don't seem too interesting except for the intriguing "Playgroup Playoffs". What is that, and what are Friday night lodging accommodations like? Depending on these, I'll play T1 Multi and Super Sealed on Friday, and probably bring a selection of non-Redemption games for anyone interested. If lodging is not so easy to come by and/or Playgroup Playoffs doesn't interest me, I'll come for just Saturday.

GAMING SCHEDULE:
June 22, 2012   
09:00AM - Player registration & deck check
10:00AM - Session 1:  Type 2 2-Player OR Type 1 Multiplayer
01:30PM - Lunch Break
02:30PM - Session 2:  Type 2 Multiplayer OR Sealed Deck 2Player
06:00PM - Dinner Break   
08:00PM - Optional exhibition event (Playgroup Playoffs)

June 23, 2012   
09:00AM - Player registration & deck check
10:00AM - Session 3:  Type 1 2-Player OR Novice Sealed Deck
01:30PM - Lunch Break 
02:30PM - Session 4:  Teams 2vs2 OR SPECIAL Booster Draft
06:00PM - Awards ceremony

I have a question about the above schedule.  I had not noticed the timing before, but it would be impossible to play in both a morning and afternoon session on the same day.  For example, the Type 2 2P session on the first day is only allotted 3.5 hours.  That's 2 rounds, which means only 4 players maximum.  States have more T2 players than that, so I'm trying to make sense of the schedule.

Basically, I've made all the plans to make the long trek to this tournament, but this schedule is VERY concerning.  Can we have some clarification as to what exactly is going on?

John has been successful planning his tournament skeds quite well.  The lunchbreak is usually arbitrary and available to those who can use the time to have that break.  I presume that T2 players should have up to 4.5 hrs to play and I am also sure that John will give a reasonable allowance for T2 players to have a quick break before the next tourney phase begins.

Be not concerned.  You are in good hands.

Peace and blessings.

Be not concerned.  You are in good hands.

*Insert obligatory Allstate joke here*
*Retort with obligatory joke about being protected from Mayhem*
*Unfunny and unrelated response complaining about change in "not in battle" so that Lampstand doesn't protect from Mayhem*
*Spiraling responses that lead to quarantine of thread*

There, saved us all some time.

Anywho, that's good to hear.  Sorry about the tone of my post, it is very hot here and I am cranky.  And tired.  And angry at the heat.
