I really need to vent here.

Store championship kits were never publicly announced as available.

The first word anyone heard on it was during yesterday’s 2nd edition reveal. And even then, it was just “kits are shipping in June”

how in the **** are we supposed to organize these without any acknowledgment they are coming? How do I tell my store to be sure they ordered one when I have no indication we’re even having store championships.

I combed every news article and both ffg’s official twitter and ffg OP’s twitter account

not a word.

Beer and pretzels could solve at lot of your issues.

That does not preclude beer and pretzels. :D

If you insist, just add bacon.

3rd post in the thread... Impressive...

I wonder if Pancakes + Waffles are viable in 2.0?

Beer and pretzels are fine.

Building a community that led to the third largest regional in the country is also fine.

Cant do one of those without steady OP support.

Depends on how the new Syrup mechanics work out.

I'm banking on a Chicken + Waffle build myself, or at least a Waffle + Bacon list.

I wish they would at least release what stores are doing store championships, so we can start planning.

I didn't wait for FFG to confirm that their yearly schedule was continuing to cycle. What I did was I kept pestering my local store owner to make sure we had two store championship kits ordered for his two stores, and then he ordered them when his distributor offered them.

This probably means the two "stores" in my area that are actually ebay sellers probably won't order store championship kits this year, which will be a nice change of pace.

We've had one local store announce they are getting a kit and have scheduled a SC, but most of the other stores have been relatively silent.
