I might bring a MtG deck to play on the Saturday night (Before going out to party!). Will anyone be up for some games?

It’s fine. Always leave some spare funds on my Mondex card. Failing that, I’ll just send a fax, or Bebo her, so she doesn’t worry. :wink:

I’m up for some MtG, sure. I’m not massively into it (picked it up a couple of years ago, but binned it off after a couple of Friday Night Magic events - “my deck is worth two grand”, neckbeards ahoy) but I’ve still got a couple of decks gathering dust somewhere that I can pack.

Also, remember that the period where you can upgrade your Waterbowl entry to Watermonkey closes this weekend.

You can pay an extra fiver & that will get you entry to the Waterbowl *and* Monkeybowl this year. Monkeybowl is on April 7/8 up in Hartlepool and is a great weekend if you can make it.

After Sunday, you'll need to pay the full amount for both tournaments.

Anyone attending this weekend will get a special player card to go with their Sizzler
fig (it will hopefully look better than my terrible pic below)

Just googled this place to compare it's location to where I'm staying, and it says 'Permanently Closed'. Dunno how accurate that is?

Hey Merrick, yes we've checked that out this week. They're currently looking for a new landlord so have closed atm.

The place we're going to meet now is called the Puss in Boots. It's really close to the NWGC.

Any idea what time drinking may start from on the Friday? I'll be up relatively early, just needing to offload items to my accommodation and ensure I've breakfast lined up.

Hey John,

I know some people will probably be free in good time. I'm hoping to be in Stockport by mid-afternoon. But that depends on when the printers have the CDs ready for me.

I'll keep you posted.

I’m bringing a BB7s pitch, just in case anyone hasn’t played it before and wants to give it a go, or just fancies even more Blood Bowl in the evening.

I'm sure there'll be a taker Jip :)

On a different note:

If you're attending the tourney this weekend and think there's a chance you might need some help with time management please download a chess clock if possible.

There's plenty on the App Store & I'm sure there'll be the same for Android users.

It'll be a big help if you can. Thanks.
