Thread: 40k Events

Has any thought been given to holding alternative events to the 7 rounder and the apoc stuff? I would really like to play beerhammer event one day, and a 3-4 round event another...... If nothing else, maybe just an event that is one day with only 3-4 rounds? I am NOT a fan of 7 rounds over 2 days. It is the difference between me attending and playing an event or two for sure, or me possibly not attending.....

Ideas I have had about it.
Friday:
Team Tourney (already happened previous years)
BeerHammer Event
8-16 person flights of 3-4 round events - various times throughout the day

Saturday:
Day 1 of 7 rounder (already in place)
8-16 person flights of 3-4 round events - various times throughout the day
Day 1 of 5 rounder "hobby"/"highlander" type event
BeerHammer event
Team Event of some sort 3-4 rounds varied points from Fridays event

Sunday:
Day 2 of 7 rounder (already in place)
8-16 person flights of 3-4 round events - various times throughout the day
Day 2 of 5 rounder "hobby"/"highlander" type event

That way you could have the 7 rounder for the more hard core and a number of additional events that people might enjoy instead of being pigeon holed into the 7 rounder or team events. This also allows for additional revenue as the more events someone plays in the more they pay to participate in those events. I also know that I am not the only one that is not a fan of the 7 rounder and could be why attendance has been down in recent years. 1 day events here and there would also allow for people that can only do one or two days to play in an event or even play in an event and be able to do something else they enjoy or want to participate in on another day.

Do they allow outside beer in the double tree? I know that they generally don't care, but with copious amounts visible....

I could not care less about outside beer as long as the beer at the venue is reasonably priced I will drink ALL of it. I will not pay $8.00 a domestic though. Even my wallet has limits.....

I'm hammering out the details on non-competitive organized play. Stay tuned.
