The restaurant wasn't bad either--and the drinks were cheap.

Was that you're paying my registration next year and sponsoring me $75 worth of booze to stay plastered during Nova Open II, in exchange for my prizes. Amirite? AMIRITE?!?

I definitely plan on a team tournament next year. In fact, we're planning on an enormous expansion of available events, to include:

40k Invitational
40k Open
Fantasy Open
40k Team Tournament
Possible Fantasy Team Tournament
Seminars
Hobby Events
Major Painting Competition - Golden NOVA (or similar name)
Car Raffle (in works)
NOVACALYPSE evening chill-out / booze / narrative apocalypse event
Malifaux
Warmachine
Etc.

And yes, everything will be geared toward rewarding ALL practitioners of our hobby and others ... no unfair or negative treatment of hobbyists OR competitors, those who treat the game(s) as a sport, and those who treat it as a game

After hours swap meet?

Andrew, you scored 88/100, 73/100, 68/100 respectively

I guess I should/could put up a breakdown of appearance scoring by player, but a lot of folks just don't care about it in detail, so simply ask if you want to know.

OK, how poor a paint score did the turtle shells get?

**Grimwulfe**

The turtle shlls rocked. And suprisingly enough during our game I managed not to scratch a single one.

If I get your Vegas tickets... DEAL (Gawd, how bad would it be to see Thousand Sons Turtle List at Vegas Nationals? kekeke)!

Plus, if you read the thread in the DCM forum... next year, I will make it a MUCH bigger deal with MUCH more planning done ahread of time (but It will probably end up being a day before/after the Actual event as to not compete with the fine offerings of the NovaOpen)

? I could have sworn at least one died every game. Real name/army, which round? Or did you mean scratch for real as in scratch the paint (varnish) job?

**Sanguinary Dan**

I'd like to know my painting scores. Dan Foxman / Blood Angels

(as if the Blood Angels part was a surprise)
