The Fall of 'Ard Boyz and my thoughts.

Well, it has been a few days since the fall of 'Ard Boyz and now that I have had a few days to think about it I wanted to get my $.02 out there.  Let's talk about the tournament that was and perhaps look to the future, come along with me on this magic carpet ride.

Tournament Talk: Feast of Blades, Battle Points and Win-Loss

Today I wanted to talk about the Feast of Blades Invitational and go over some of the different styles that exist for tournaments currently.  Lets just jump right in, shall we?

Feast of Blades goes coast to coast!

Many of you will know that I am the TO for Feast of Blades, an annual GT/ Con that happens each year in the fall at Denver, CO.  Well, I am proud to announce that it has officially grown from a one state event, to a truly national event.

Feast of Blades is looking for state/area reps.

This next year (2012) Feast of Blades is going national!  We are going to have qualifiers from coast to coast.  As such we are looking for a few good men and women to be our state and area reps.  

Areas we are looking for:

New York

Chicago/ IL

Virginia

Missouri

S. California

Central California (SF, Sac, Fresno)

Vegas / NV

Phoenix /Arizona

Seattle and Portland

*If we didn't mention your area and there are enough gamers to warrant it give us an email and we can talk about having one in your area.

What does a state rep do, you ask? 

1. Works with Chandler do determine which stores in an area are the best places to host events (Who has terrain, local groups and supports the players) 

2. Talks with players and host stores to get them excited about having a qualifier at their store (pom-poms not included) 

3. Answers any questions stores and players may have.

4. When lacking a qualifier TO this person will act as TO for qualifiers.

Benefits:

- This year all state reps will receive free entry into the event(s) of their choice.  One friend of a state rep will also receive a 50% discount on entry.  State reps must also qualify naturally for the invitational.

- When you get here we will be organizing a state rep dinner on Sat night with some internet celeb types.

- Free "Staff," shirt (who doesn't like shirts)

- being a part of a national event.

Qualifications:

- We prefer that you are older than 21 but it isn't a requirement.

- We also are looking for someone who is excited about helping and will steal the initiative on getting people together.

- You should also have experience in running small RTT's just in case you have to run a few.

If your interested send an email to Feastofblades@Gmail.com

Honor your chapter,

Chandler

Interview with the Feast of Blades Champion: Nick Rose

So, now that you are the new Feast of Blades Champion I wanted to do an interview with you... Simple Q and A

Feast of Blades: Pure of heart charity award.

Hey everyone, as I have covered before the Tournament I am running FEAST OF BLADES is running at full steam to get ready for November.  One of the main events on Friday night is the 'Charity team tournament.'  read on to hear about the event and the awards that go with it.

Tournaments: the time limit.

Right now planning for Feast of Blades (FoB) is in full "captain planet mode." This means that I have nothing but tournaments on the brain right now. As suchI wanted to talk today about something I heard one of my press-ganger buddies talk about, the random add-on time limit.

FOB Champions Awards

Duke here and before Swags goes into his post let me give you a little intro. For those of you who aren't in "the know,"  I am organizing a mega-super-awesome event known as "Feast of Blades," this event is an annual convention held in Denver with all the bells and whistles of any other convention (Weekend long gaming, multiple tournaments, demo games, vendors, etc.)  However our main-line tournament is the Invitational.  To qualify for the invitational you had to place 1st or 2nd in a RTT held at one of our 32 qualifier locations in 7 states.  Those 64 people are then pitched against each-other in a very competitive setting.  The big question I was having was, "How do we show the elite nature of the people who have qualified, and how do we let them show that to others?"  Well, folks we have solved the problem...
