We have 40 people registered.  We're upping the cap to 40.

Who needs sleep?

That's a lot of people.



We're gonna need a bigger boat.

P.S- The boat shall by named GT and she will be grand!!

Wow 40 people is big!  Can't wait, hopefully us fresh faces will make a fine showing of ourselves haha.


Also is there any type of healthy food around the store?  Like not McDonald's or crap like that?

There's tons of not-so-healthy food.

You can get a salad at the pizza joint next to us, there's a Subway really close, and there's a bunch of Chinese food joints that may have healthy options.

I highly recommend what I think they call the "Bubba BBQ"

BBQ chicken pizza, but with onions rings and bacon, too.  Now THAT'S healthy!!!!

Ben, are you implying we are going to sink and Chase is Leonardo Dicaprio?

I'd go down with the ship.

And I'd love to pull the tail Leo has / does.  (Am I allowed to say that?)

And as far as the GT thing goes... We've got close to 40 tables now, although probably only 30 of them are usable for tournaments.

What's keeping me from putting major thought into a 40k GT right this minute is the lack of quality terrain we have.  We do NOT have 30 tables worth of quality terrain.  Building the room for this tournament (20 tables) will be an interesting exercise in seeing how far the good / nice stuff goes.

If we can get the last 500,000 Magic cards sorted, graded, filed, and listed online we can focus on finishing Abington, improving / fixing Plainville, and then I want to give some SERIOUS thought to the future of 40k and miniature wargaming at Battleground.  I've got some very, very rough ideas kicking around and I think the community will like all of them.

Battleground WILL run an annual GT.  I will ask for support from everyone.  It will be awesome.

I don't know if you're allowed to say it, but I was thinking it.
