Title: Southeast Region/Florida Tournaments
Post by: YourMathTeacher on March 07, 2012, 10:51:27 PM
Now that I have money, Redemption will be returning to Central Florida. I would like input from whomever it concerns about the following:

1.) Southeast Regional Tournament - Since Natz may be in TN, is it OK to have Regionals in Orlando for the second year in a row? Was someone else already planning on hosting regionals this year?

2.) Florida State Tournament - Is there a playgroup in Florida that would like to host the state tournament this year? Does South Florida want to lead the effort? How about the Fort Myers group? I can carpool a group from Orlando to either area if you are up for it. If not, Orlando is prepared to host again.

3.) Orlando Local/District - Anyone in the Central Florida area that is interested in tournaments, please let me know your availability. This would include the South Florida & Fort Myers groups, if there is a weekend that you would like to swing up this way.

4.) All vacationing gamers - If you are planning a trip to Orlando, and would like to take part in a tournament, let me know what dates you will be here and we can try to schedule one during that time.

I'll be attending an IEEE conference in Cocoa Beach April 16-17. I'm not sure if I could get down there earlier that weekend, but if I could, it'd be awesome to check out your place. I won't know my travel arrangements for awhile yet, and I'm sure it's too late to apply for a tourney then, but still, it would be cool to see what's up with Florida Redemption.

Most of the Andersons will be in Orlando July 13 - 18 for the Christian Retail Show.  We will likely be renting a house within a couple miles of where you hosted Regionals last summer. So, if you wanted to schedule Regionals July 13-14, we could likely attend part of the time.

Let me know when you have more concrete plans. We could always have an impromptu tournament for you. My group is always up for it.  ;D

I will check the church's master calendar to see if those dates are open. If so, then that would work fine for me.

Awesome! We have open availability except for Wednesdays after 4 and of course Sunday mornings. Any other time is good :D

I will concede my bid for SE Regionals this year.

Alabama does the same.

Unless I hear otherwise soon, Southeast Regionals will be planned for July 13 & 14 at Cornerstone Baptist Church in Davenport, FL. We look forward to having Rob Anderson in attendance for the second consecutive year. Hopefully we'll get another sneak preview of soon-to-be-released cards.  ;)

I would also like player feedback about having the "Restricted" Type 1 Category for Regionals, in addition to traditional Type 1 (if this is even possible). Never mind. This option is not available at the moment.

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

Regarding Central Florida Redemption:

Tentative dates for tournaments are as follows:

Saturday, May 5th (Local)
Saturday, May 19th (District)
Saturday, June 2nd (Local)
Friday, June 15th (Local)

More will come after I get more information about the church calendar. Please let me know what works or doesn't work for anyone planning to attend. I need feedback about Restricted events, which will be included for each tournament either as 2-player or Multiplayer.

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

Are any of the other Florida groups considering hosting the Florida State Tournament this year? Please speak up soon, since alternate plans needs to be put into place in advance.

For now, I have reserved my church for June 29th & 30th. This is the best weekend to avoid conflicts with other church events. I will not put in an application yet, as I wait to hear from the other Florida groups.
