It will be held at DonkeyCon, yes that really is the name of the con. The con happens on Saturday 30th March and will be held in the Herbert Manzoni Building at Loughborough University in Loughborough. Entry to the PotM is free, but there will be a charge to get in to DonkeyCon. The event will be a Block Three constructed, with banned list in effect. this will be Swiss format, cutting to top 8/16 depending on numbers.

Just a quick point - 30th of March is a Monday. Should this read 28th of March?

No, it should read 30th May, but I'm an idiot and gave Steve the wrong information. There will be a full on post in the UK forums when i get a little more information regarding a couple of things.

I was hoping that was the case! Right, off to book the Holiday time ^^

Gotta go find that post... all I remember was that Vermillian bashed me for derailing the topic I posted it in.

Vermillian, bashing someone? Surely you jest.

Someone trying to keep a topic ON topic! SHOCK AND HORROR! :P

Chanes are the mechanic is similar (though i don't recall it now). I mean we all had the combo mechanic in our heads, haven't we? Its just a matter of how it's implimented, right? THAT takes work more so than just coming up with an idea... its how to fit the idea in to a system.

It turns it was a mistake and it is actually May 30th sorry about the confusion.

Ha! I'm on the right track! hmmm.. makes me wonder if my idea gave birth to the current "combo" ability in question...

Anyway.. it's 11:22pm Central time and Sgt Horvath is awake AND on the forums?!

I am very very curious of to what extent is this "combo" ability comes to mine cause what I wrote on the previous page was not all. My "combo" ability also works with card types.. such as Combo: Asset, Combo: Action... etc.

Bear in mind that any idea you post on the forums become property of FFG and they can use it without any accredation. Believe me I know I've thrown around card ideas in the past that have had similar incarnations come to pass

what i was thinking is that it would give your next attack -x difficutly like say it says combo: kick and has a number of say 2 it would give your next attack -2 difficulty if its played after a kick attack

it shows how combos in games actually work like they flow together easier then just randomly throwing different attacks

Lack of ban or errata also surprises me. I would have thought a few functional erratae would have been slated by now (such as Ken6). But no news is good news, they say.

Ken 6?

He was given errata on December 13th 2008

Not really sure what further errata is required.

Please note, yes I agree, it could have been better displayed. Expect it to be released with upcoming tournament rules revision.

What was his errata I thought there was no bans or errata in december for 2008?

Chris,

Click the link... it goes straight to the Errata.

It was issued by the rules arbiters.

I thought Arbiters couldn't issue errata.

It's official; FFG has officially become Jim Henson.

Thanks for the update, though.

It's functional errata. The card works, the extra word simply adds clarity. There is no change from how the card works. The errata was issued after discussion with James

Hm. Prerelease being pushed back kinda sucks, but 'sno big deal, really.

Pre-release push back means I will be there for it! This is great news! lengua.gif

So when is the next set getting released?

And tekken will not be released before the MN event correct?

Set 12 is april 9th-11th and no we are getting set 12 only one week before the event . But judging of how things were last year of how the sets got pushed back we might not be getting set 13 till june maybe late may .

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON! Dany Bédard! Une chance que la plupart des gens ne peuvent saisir ta réfétence. Imagine le chaos et l'anarchie qui s'ensuivraient? C'est comme la rage dans une cage...Think about it!
