This event was definitely the best one I've attended yet. The variation between rounds kept each game fresh.
Time for my tau jumpy phase

Coming into it I didn't know what to think.  The scoring of the rounds was easy and straight forward, the mechanics of the event kept each round feeling fresh and different, and the nature of the event made for a casual atmosphere in the room.

I had a really good time with this and will definitely do something like it in the future.

The only downside is the difficulty in getting a team together on the player's end.
