I find myself with a free weekend on November 1st and 2nd.

Anyone know of any tournaments out there on the East Coast that weekend?

Thanks!

I think there are only ones on the 8th/9th and 15th/16th.

Where on the East Coast?

The prior weekend is the MechaniCon GT just outside of Philly. I'm going and would love to see you there if you were able to shift your free weekend

Will keep an eye out for any on that next weekend, of course.

Sorry, I should have been more clear. Somewhere between Nashua NH and Atlanta GA. Does that help narrow it down?

Here is my itinerary (Locations approximate):
Brawl in the Fall (Fresno Ca) Oct 4th-5th
Feast of Blades (Denver Co) Oct 10th-12th
I think I have a lead on an RTT in WI fort Oct 18th
Mechanicon (Philadelphia PA) Oct 24th-25th
11th Co GT (Myrtle Beach SC) Nov 8th-9th
Da Boyz GT (Rochester NY) Nov 15-16th
Renegade GT (Minneapolis MN) Nov 22nd-23rd

As you can see I am missing Nov 1st and 2nd. There might not be anything going on because of Halloween.

Wow, that is an epic streak of events (mostly GTs, too). I hope you plan to blog about it somewhere on here

Are you sure you don't just need that weeekend to recuperate

Battle for Salvation is Oct 10-12, but other than that I know of no GT's until Nov.

How do you manage to find the time to pull this off?

I was laid off a few months ago and have the time. The problem with this trip is the money especially for lodging on the East Coast.

Sorry to hear about getting laid off. Admit I am jealous. Always wanted to do something like that but never been able to pull it off. Though a lot of it has to do with I hate going to tournaments alone. Yeah I meet people but its just not the same unless I am bringing along people I know.

We have a local tournament in Greenville, SC that weekend. I am finalizing the tournament packet now. It's at Borderlands Comics and Games on Laurens Road. I will post the details on Dakka ASAP.

Would love to have you. We have played twice before at Adepticon. Our scene normally nets ~20 for a local one.

Maybe I will drive down to Dixie since I will have to be there for the next week for the 11th Co GT.

Now to kill a week there what is there to do? Going down to the to see ATL? Maybe play TPM? Charleston, Savannah, maybe check out TN or the blue ridge mountains.

Well, it looks like all of the campgrounds on the Blue Ridge Parkway close after Nov 1st, so it looks like I will be headed down there after all. Now I have to find something to do from Nov 2nd through 7th.

Looking forward to it.

If you're into American history Charleston is fantastic. It wouldn't be difficult to spend a week there sight seeing.

Safe travels and see you at the Mechanicon.

Hey, Im Julio. We met at BAO.
See you Saturday in Fresno.
