We've just sold out of our "Colorful Monkey Butt" tickets. Thankfully, we are now prepared to offer 15 "9-Inch Banana Tickets" to the next 15 people to buy a ticket for our 40K GT.

These tickets get an extra door prize drawing, and a special gift in their swag bag, to honor their "9-Inch Banana"

****Flying Monkey GT Update****

Tickets: Tickets are on sale now. As of this post we've sold 38 to the 40K GT. That is well on our way to the 58 we need to become an ITC major. If our ticket sales keep going at the current pace, we should get there with room to spare. April 1st is the last day to buy a ticket, and be guaranteed a swag bag, and entry into the main door prize drawings. Get your tickets today: http://www.flyingmonkeygt.com/p/buy-tickets.html

Sponsorship: The sponsorship continues to arrive. At this point we've got $3,000 worth of sponsorship. Check out our facebook page to see the posts as it comes in: https://www.facebook.com/events/505090756327480/

Prizes: Our ticket sales have been good to this point. For our 40K GT the top prize will be "Renaissance Man" which is a combo of hobby and game score. They will receive *at least* $300 cash. We will also award "Best General", the 2 runner ups, and as many "Best of (Faction)" as we can. We've got lots of hobby prizes, sportsmanship, and a number of eclectic specific prizes for achievement. Not to mention swag bags. Everyone that buys a ticket before April 1 will walk away with something.

Beerhammer: We will be finalizing the missions and army comp rules shortly. This will be a more light-hearted, and less competitive event. Its a great way to get your tourney off to a great start.

Knight Joust: We will post finalize rules shortly. This will also be a fun, and more casual event.

Warmachine: We've got lots of Warmachine prizes, but we aren't selling many tickets yet. If you sign up for Warmachine, chances are you will walk away with something pretty awesome like a 4x4' gaming mat. Also we are a 2016 Warmachine Weekend Invitational Wildcard Series

X-Wing: We are starting to see some X-Wing tickets sell. We've got great prizes, and a big local crowd that will be signing up soon. Don't miss out.

Blood Bowl: We are NAF approved, and have an awesome tourney planned. Don't miss out.

Malifaux: Wyrd has stepped up, and given us a 16 player prize kit for the tournament. Sign up now to get one of those spots.

We are now up to 49 for the 40K GT. We really want to get to 58 to become an ITC major. We are selling around a Ticket a day, and should be on track to make it, but we don't want to just make that number we want to smash it. So we'd like everyone to help us find a few more participants.

One thing we can offer is a ton of prize support. For our entire event, our sponsored prize support is in excess of $5,000. Most of that is going into our 40K, or hobby prize pool. Our 40K prize pool alone is likely to be in excess of $3,000 in cash and prizes with each additional ticket sold adding to that total. When you add in $100's of swag and door prizes, we will have a very generous event. People can come and win things like this super awesome case from Bare Bones Battleworks:



Our X-Wing, Malifaux, Warmachine, and Blood Bowl events all have excellent prizes as well, and your chance to win is great as those events haven't sold as many tickets yet.

This is the Final Week to buy our "Great Ape" tickets. These are the last tickets that guarantee a swag bag. Starting next week, the only tickets available will be the "Little Bananas". People who sign up as "Little Bananas" can still play, but may not get a swag bag, or have access to all of our door prize drawings so book today.

Exciting news. We just passed 50 Registered participants for the 40K Championship. That means our winners will get points for Team USA.

We aren't done yet., though. We really want to see 58 players. That is the point at which we can legitimize ourselves as an ITC major. We've been selling a ticket a day, and at that rate we should have 65 signups by the time the event arrives. But, we don't want to leave it to chance. If you know somebody on the bubble, encourage them, do what you can to get them to sign up.

This is going to be a fun GT with lots of 1st time GT attendees, and we are going to do our best to make sure everyone has a great time, and gets a chance to tap into our incredibly generous prize pool (More than $5,000 in prizes).

Remember. This is the last week to buy a "Great Ape" ticket and guarantee yourself a swag bag, and access to all of our door prizes. After this week the only tickets for sale will be the "Little Bananas". Don't get stuck with a "Little Banana".

**** Flying Monkey GT Update ****
Major Update: We have been chosen to be an ITC major providing we can draw 58 people. We've sold 57 Tickets, so we need just 1 more to accomplish that feet. Tell your friends. Help us out. Help us seal the deal on just 1 More Ticket, and we will be an ITC Major. Get your Tickets here: http://www.flyingmonkeygt.com/p/buy-tickets.html

Sponsorship Update

Don't Forget: We still need players for all of our events, not just 40K. Come and play one of these:
X-Wing
Warmachine
Malifaux
Blood Bowl
or just compete in our Hobby Contest.
