Will anyone be hosting this?

I do not think there are any organized groups in Vancouver BC but what about our friends to the south?

Rings used to run the Pacific Northwest Regional in Seattle, but since his move to the Midwest I don't know how active the players in the area are. Rings would probably be the guy to ask. You could always post an interest in running it yourself, see what kind of response you get from area gamers. Barring that, just travel down south to the Western Regional at Kublacon (San Francisco). It is looking like a big turnout, if the talk on the boards and from players past and present is to be believed.
