Post by: the_trooper on March 04, 2013, 10:09:57 AM: From what I have seen on the forums here, Tuesdays are the night they seem to want to try for.

I've even considered making the trek down as I've been finding myself free Tuesday nights.

There are usually 2-3 tournaments/events running every weekend throughout New England. Although, this month is a little lacking. Probably due to everyone recovering from Templecon.

Post by: DanSopel on March 18, 2013, 09:27:28 PM: Yep, Tuesdays in Plainville have some momentum. Last week there were 3-4 games going for most of the night. There's a good range of skill levels and it seems everyone's good about helping out the new guys. I get there between 7:00 and 8:00pm and it's in full swing, but I know a couple of the guys start mid-afternoon.

Chase, I sent you a PM. Just saying, cause a lot of people don't check their forum inbox ;)

Thursdays in Abington and Tuesdays in Plainville.

Come hang out and hit up any of us for a game. There are always people up for "teaching" games.
