I should be bringing 3 with me. Does it usually sell out/fill up? I take it that most people stay at the Hilton?
Eric: are you participating or running?

We are capping the event at 50. In all honesty it might sell out, but probably not. Last year we had 38, year before 28, year before that 24. So it has been growing. If you want some spots Steve, I'll make sure you get 'em. I know the head dude I will be running it this year. I have played in it the past 3 years (and just handled setting the thing up, prize support, sponsorship and promoting beforehand as a co-organizer). I probably love to play the game more than any of the other organizers, but this year it just kind of fell to me to run it because of real life for the others. As much as I love playing, I want a local GT event even more. So there you go :> As for the hotels, the Hilton is good of course and there is something to be said of staying where the convention is for convienience! If you miss the special price of $92 a room though your second choice should be the Hyatt Place on Navajo Drive. It is within walking distance (you can see the hotels from each other) of the Hilton. It also has nicer rooms (imo) with refrigerators! (a big draw for me ) and it is $79 a night regular price. It is where I will be staying also I would say support the Hilton since that is where the con is, but either place would be a great stay I am sure! If you miss the special price of 92 a night for the Hilton, then it is no contest-stay at the Hyatt Place. -Erik

You will never get the DE done in time- no how no way undead dwarves would be ultra cool All your armies are sweet though! -Erik I really want to make it down again this year... Do I play my orcs and goblins again? Rush to finish my Chaos? Go mental to convert, assemble and paint the DE? Bring my new dwarves (which I didn't paint ) Bring my Undead Dwarves (VC)? It's one of my favorites... Decisions decisions.... I know OGRES! LOL Cheers, Spanky.

Except that they are VC not dwarves...another issue I have with the Undead Dwarves is that I don't have the Core requirements for 8th ed.... totally forgot about that....

Makes me wish I was back in Norfolk so I could drive down and duke it out with you guys! Eventually I am going to organize some kind of tourney out here in Pearl Harbor.

I heard on the Point Hammered Paintcast Joe Rogers is bringing DoW. If he can make it from Wisconsin, then I suppose I really have no excuse to not get there from Memphis. Count me officially in.
Now I just have to decide on which army to bring.

I plan to be there. I intend to bring a new Wood Elf army that I have been building. The tourney gave me a purpose to start painting again....now if I can just get it completed.
Looking forward to it.

I'll be there, and am talking it up locally to get as many folks in from Durham as possible.
