Yeh, Ben gave me a head's up, and asked if I was OK with having a picture of me on there.

This could get very interesting! I'm glad Jess is running it. She won't let it get out of hand.

Excellent. I figured they'd go to the photographer first. They're pretty good about that. :)

Yeah in two days time they already sold out of the forty discount registrations! With a pool limit of only 84 for the Open Steel I'm going to have to bite the bullet on this one and lock in my spot. Not real happy they didn't wait until AFTER the holidays to open the registration!  :(

Seriously. I haven't really had time to look at it yet, but it sound like getting in early is a good thing.

I haven't told my wife this but one of the reasons I'm hoping she gets a job on the east coast in the next year or two is to go to this event.

Well I registered today for the open steel longsword tournament. I tried to register for the Sword & Buckler but it was already filled.
After following this link:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JjPmlk_rgxCFcJxvkM15DuHg0qvWYQnxNdvrsBNlrZ4/edit#gid=0

it looks like after they add my name to that list there will only be 18 open longsword spots left. They might open more later if the schedule allows but this event is filling up REALLY quick! Best to get it while you can if anyone is interested in going!  :-\


Idea as to when exactly?
I cannot find a listing.

The event is July 23 ~ 26.

It's a shame sword+blucker filled up so fast, I'd have liked to have done that. But I guess I would have needed to sign up 2+ weeks ago. So I signed up for open steel longsword. I expect to get my ass handed to me. :)

I will be content to just get past the first round pools! 84+ combatants is a LARGE pool to fight through!  :-\
