FOW Tournament in November
I know Jerry has made a thread about this already, but I wanted peoples to take a look at it now so it can help influence my plans (which I need to solidify this week).
There is a strong possibility of me flying into Miami the weekend before Thanksgiving for 4 days or so before I would go to St. Petersburg to spend Turkey Day with my family. I know the tradition is to have the FOW tournament on the last Sunday of the month. However, seeing the issues with Turkey Day AND the fact that I would be in town...
Who wants to play the FOW tournament on Sunday Nov. 23rd? It's the week prior and I feel like it might be easier on the family thing. I don't know Joel's schedule but as my FOW army conveniently fits into a suitcase with room for 3 or 4 days of clothes flying down with them wouldn't be a problem!
What do you guys say?? Any of you folks think you'd be able to get off work or anything like that?

Re: FOW Tournament in November
I was actually planning on making that tournament. I already have the day off on the last sunday of the month. Just my 2 cents.

Ahh, well now then that just throws things into a pickle! Oh well, I figured I'd give it a shot hoping that you hadn't already requested your day off for then.
Anyone else?

Re: FOW Tournament in November
Yes, it has already been decided
November 23, a special event "Tanksgiving". It will involve armies that are primarily tank companies.
I Will provide more details in the near future.
... I'm tired.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
I'm not trying to be difficult or anything, but the poll shows 3 to 1 for the above dates. How are you going to run a tournament with 2 people? I spoke with Joel today and he told me that he would allow me to run the tournament on 30th if and only if we were to have more people on that date. I am only offering to run it because it appears that Jerry is unable to on that date. So speak up people, let us know which day you prefer and if you will commit to that day. Bill, Ammon, Stephan, Henry, Will, Rick, JC, Luis? Vote and post a comment, please.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
Ok, Luis if you vote for the 23, Jerry will be doing his tank battle thing. Not sure how that is going to work since not everyone has an armoured company. If you vote for the 30th, I'm going to run a regular tounament with a few twists.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
Well, the only reason I brought this up was because I'm going to be in town.
Unfortunately they're now even with two folks voting either way. Luis I made it so you can cancel and revote if you'd like.
I personally don't really care (though it would be fun) if we have one then or not. I just want to get some gaming in. Does it have to be a tank battle Jerry? While it sounds like fun, I don't really have enough points to field an armored company yet. I personally would have a plain old MW or LW tournament, but thats just my opinon.
I'm guessing there's no way to change your day off Eric?

Re: FOW Tournament in November
No, our staffing is messed up because we are short 1 sgt. at our station and it ends up that sundays are the day that we suffer for it, or should I say I suffer. Anyways, we still need to get feedback from the guys that don't post on the forum like, Will, Don and Tom. So, they very well might want to do it on your sunday. I'm all for having it on the day that you are going to get the most people even if it leaves me out. So, lets see what they say and we can make a final decision by the end of the week.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
Maybe thats why Jerry is tired. Indecisive motherfuckers. Tell Will ,Don and Tom to join the forum so they can at least communicate as far as gaming goes for tournaments and Sunday FoW. Why does that seem so difficult. Im sure they all own computers.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
Gentlemen, I do not pull these dates out of my ass and declare them cannon.
I tried to accommodate the common good and majority, I am not an evil politician.
Joel TOLD me 23 November for the special Battle Front FOW "Tanks giving" tournament.
I am NOT giving dates to accommodate ME!
For the record I suggested/stated that November and December would be too difficult and that we should wave these months.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
No one's calling you evil Jerry! People are just confused thats all.
Can anyone get in contact with Will, Tom, or Don? And where's Dave and JC at? I haven't seen any comment from them, or from Stephan for that matter!
I'll be in town either way so I'll probably show up on Sunday to play some games, I just know that if we have a tournament I'll be able to play some games, not hope
Lets get more feedback! No one's to blame here but lets just figure it out! Luis do you have a preference or do both days work for you?

Re: FOW Tournament in November
I just don't get it, you guys were saying its every last sunday of the month period, a couple of months ago. Now Joel is saying oh but not Nov and Dec. I mean WTF, I took off November so I could go on that month. Now you are going to change it. Its no big deal to me but a couple of months ago, it seemed set in stone. I'm withdrawling my offer to run the tourney on the 30th. So, the date for the November Tourney is the 24th like joel decided.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
I was under that same impression Eric, thats why I started this thread.
From what I was aware the tournaments were always the last Sunday of month. Since I knew of my plans for coming into town farther in advance I was hoping to see if people would be able to switch dates for this month. I don't want to get everyone angry, I just hoping to get to play in a tournament in Miami while I'm down!
And we know that Joel changes his mind more often Max whacks off to Shakira, so I can't say about that at all.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
I am laying the blame entirely at Joel's feet.
I warned him this would happen, but he sworn up down that the MOST of the players wanted to have a tournament OFF the agreed time.
So may be he lied?!
I think we would should punish him by not having any tournaments for the rest of the year. may be just may be this will get through his thick head. This seems to be the only method.
I am definitely out for December.

Re: FOW Tournament in November
We can play Late-War, it doesn't matter to me though I would like to know in advance so I bring down the right stuff.
We still don't have a firm date yet though. I will call Tom tonight, can anyone get a hold of Don or Will? We need their input!

most likely the Thanksgiving weekend will be a no go for me, since I'll probably be out of town.

So does that mean your good to go for the weekend before or are both weekends out of the question?
