So, the new rules for the GT are up.

Who all will be there?

I'll be going....if I can organise one or two things.

Firstly, i'm clueless about how to get there.  Can anyone offer any hints/tips/advice surrounding the event. 

Also- Im currently living in Japan.  I've only ever been to Florida in the U. S- and have no idea about Atalanta. 

Can anyone recommend accomodation ? Cheap hotels/hostels etc. -At the very most, offer some floor space   ? (im clean- and house trained.  And have good references ) Plus I can bring cool shtuff from the land of the rising sun as compensation.

Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!!

Is there an atlanta GT? I only see one listed for Chicago.

DOH !! Okay- then a few clarification- i may have meant games day.

The tourney rules that are up now for you guys- when are they used? At the games day or at the GT (Chicago is it?)

EDIT: Cool.   Checked it out.  On the US GW site they have the listings for the Games Days.  Thats what i was talking about. 

In addition to that- can anyone recommend whether either the Atlanta or the Baltimore GD is better?  Same original questions would apply for either. 

alanta is in Georgia which is right above florida, and the cheapest hotels i can think about with good beds and a safe place would be motel six, im just going to drive there from texas in the winobago(sp) so i wont have to worry about hotels and food and stuff like that moile hotel on wheels and i do have three extra beds in there too

I am staying at the Baymont Inn Atlanta/Buckhead. After some checking around on the internet this hotel was the best quality for the cost. It's a little further from the convention center than I wanted to be but it's in a really good area, should be very clean and safe and all that. Check it out, here's the link and the address for the hotel. By the way, Atlanta has a huge airport so flying in should be no problem for you.

I know the US Events guy posts here sometimes. I have never been to a tournament; do they usually do a quick rundown before games on how they play/score things?

In particular, since I am sure there will be a few, what is GW GD Tourney?s call going to be on DP's landing on friendly units?
