14 at Game Gurus (they really only had space for 12, but did some clever squeezing to fit two latecomers in, and then the TC dropped to let a younger teenager play)
Puget Sound 2015 Store Championships
Updated. I'm thinking Games and Gizmos will have a pretty healthy turnout. First Championship in 2 weeks.
Hopefully I can make that one.
Definitely good turnouts. 31 total players between the two venues despite overlapping start times.
Card Kingdom and Around the Table are both likely going to be huge.
Was the guy running Chewie/Biggs/Jan an Asian lookin dude named Jeremy?
He was. Nice guy.
Cool. Does anyone know who won at Redmond Uncle's Games?
Blair won. Don't know his last name.

What was he running?
Edit: I see that the front page is now edited with build lists. Thanks.
Edited by gundamvWho's planning on going tomorrow?
Sadly I cannot... ![]()
No tourney for me due to D&D.
Second place at Game Gurus was this Keyan build:
Keyan Farlander
-Advanced Sensors
-Push the Limit
-Heavy Laser Cannon
He brought the same build to Around the Table's league night last week and had mentioned using it at that tourney.
I'm about 90% going tomorrow, but it looks like nobody else from my local group can make it.
Correction on Game Gurus standings:
Fat Dash/Keyan won.
My BBBBZ 2nd.
4th place Chewie had Draw Their Fire equipped, Jan had Ion Turret, Biggs. I don't remember what the last two points were.
Good luck to yall at Gizmos I can't make it but I'll see ya next weekend.

Squad Leader on Jan.
I took second at the Redmond Games and Gizmos. Everyone was tired by the end so they decided to just go by points after the elimination round to top 4. I was asleep on a table next to where the discussion was going on lol.

How many people showed up to Gizmos?
31.
The tournament consisted of 3 round swiss. Top 8 went into the next round and only played one more round. I presume the TO used MOV to rank the 4 winners.

MOV and record. I had a lower MOV than 3rd and 4th, but since I had 4 full wins, I made 2nd. It sounded kinda weird, but whatever.
Any word on the top lists in that last pre-Scum championship?

Isn't MOV the tie break? Record trumps all. A 4-0 with no marginal wins nets you 12 points (3 for each win) and then MOV only knocks you down from 1st compared to any others who also got 12 of 12 points possible.
If I'm wrong, someone let me know, but that is how I read the tourney rules. Sounds like Games and Gizmos did it correctly... followed the Tourney rules as written.

The scoring system is as follows:
Match win (destroyed 12 or more points than your opponent): 5 tourney points
Modified Match win (destroyed between 1 and 11 points): 3 tourney points
Draw (both players killed same number of points): 1 tourney point
Loss: 0 tourney points
So a player who goes 2-2 with two full match wins will have a better score than a player who went 3-1 with nothing but Modified Match Wins.

Like I said, I was tired and asleep when they made the decision. I woke up, someone handed me some stuff and said "congrats on the 2nd place finish" and I packed up my swarm and left. I also had a headache so that contributed to me not fighting the ruling too much.
That gives me an idea for a new plan for this weekend's tourneys: "Get my opponents drunk."
That always works on me.
Who won at Games/Gizmos? What did he/she run?
