Next step on the way to a Vassal GT is me hosting other events on Vassal - for example, the 350 point boss brawl FFA tomorrow on Vassal that's open to anyone.

I have an idea! You host a large tournament that costs nothing to enter, and no prize, other than bragging rites as the best dakkite!

It would help you get a feel for what kind of supervisors you need, and we can give you feedback on the scenarios/boards you prepare. You would also get a feel for how long it would take most players to finish.

Anyone else think this is a good idea? Or do I just want to get a match against most of you?

Also, what if an opponent disconnects every once in a while? I have had it happen sometimes, though a comcast repair man has come by, and supposedly fixed the problem, I would hate to be DQ'd from the tournament for disconnecting once or twice in a match, and having my disembarks skewed...

I'm so in. No one to play with here in Italy and the times you are suggesting work perfectly. I'm excited
