Thanks for throwing this up, I've shared it to the oregon groups.

Whoop!!

What info do we have? Is it a standard format tournament?

Also who is "invited" since it is an "invitational"

I mean, the event page gives all of the info... well, most. It's an open invite to everyone.

Hmm, literally all I see is a starting time and location... Perhaps I'm missing something?

Entry fees etc...

Yeah, event info. Hit see more and it'll expand with more information.

This is shaping up to be quite the event!

Just an update to a question made today. On Day 2 there will be a team tourney that will go for two rounds. It is for those who don’t make the cut for day 2. More to details to come.

also this event will be streamed so great chance to earn notoriety and show the passion of Armada in the Pacific Northwest region!!

I assume that the Oregon group will cover Portland, Oregon right? Does the Portland group have its own FB page?

Only if you make the cut! The goal is to get at least 4 games day 1 and then the cut on day 2.

Ok, so unless I make the cut it won't matter (and if I do I can forfeit to the next in line)

I will try and arrange my schedule, and scrounge a few dollars to make the list I want lol

argh! If it was the 10/11th I could have actually made it. So close so far.

If you need to borrow anything let me know and I can accommodate! Also gamer’s haven puts a 15% discount on all related products to a specific game on the day tournaments of that game are played. Since the invitational is at gamer’s haven this means it will be 15% off on both Saturday and Sunday of that weekend for all Armada products and this includes paints and paint supplies as well.
