Store Championships Questions

By Bakura83, in X-Wing

So, can anyone list all the prizes so far? How much of the game has been reproduced in acrylic as prize support? I'm assuming there is only one store champion per year, so there have only been 2 or 3 in total?

Also, do you guys have any top tips for making our stores first tourney as good as possible? I'm not the TO, but I know the guy who is, so tips for the TO are welcome as well. Lastly, what's the smallest store tourney you've attended? I'm worried we're going to get nowhere near 32...

Store championship prizes:

1st prize Wooden Plague + Super Bye for Regionals

top 2 prize lame cardboard box

top 4 prize Plastic Range Ruler (neon green) x4

everybody who took part including top 4 gets Ten Numb card

tips to make tourney good?

>> run through rules again before start of tourney, especially things like pre-measuring when is it allowed when is it not, etc etc. Then "any questions" before start

>> TO better be very good at the rules / game, should walk around and cut in whenever there's any questions even if he isnt called. Good to have a printed FAQ on standby too.

>> good to allocate tables according to standings. eg. best few players will always be playing at table #1 #2

>> try not to pair up friends with friends, always pair against strangers whenever possible

>> remind observers that this is a tourney, and should remain silent while watching

>> as far as possible, everyone attending should go back with something. If using the normal season kits, I like to open the token bag and give 1 to everyone, from top standing downwards, any spares you can keep 1 for yourself and redistribute to the top 3

That sounds extremely painful.
