October 15-17th Gateway Entertainment Center 34 ave and Gateway Blvd 6 Tornado Tables 1 or 2 Fireball USA Pro Tour Tables (for testing and trying out) Friday Night: $10 Draw Your Partner 8:30 Saturday: Semi-Pro Singles 11:00 Open Singles 12:00 Rookie Singles 1:30 Semi-Pro Doubles 5:00 Open Doubles 8:00 Sunday: Events Continue (TBD) Pro/Am 11:00 Last Chance DYP 1:00 Event Entry Fees: Rookie $20 Semi-Pro $25 Pro $30 Pro Master $40 Registration fee per player: $10 We might run some 4 team DYP's on the Fireball tables. For the Pro/Am one player must be a rookie. SemiPro, Pro, and Pro Master ranked players can play with any Rookie. It is not a draw, it is a bring or choose your own partner event. Everyone pays the same entry as they would to any other event. Payout Structure: 1st 40% 2nd 25% 3rd 15% Total of 80% payout per event. The remaining 20% will be taken out of each event, and put towards the highest placing player that plans to attend Nationals. The highest ranking player will be based off of Open Singles/Doubles combined. Add the two numbers together (i.e. 3rd and 5th =8 , 1st and 4th = 5) whoever has the lowest number or highest total finishes wins. If someone doesn't play in both events then they will be placed in last in the event they don't play in. This isn't planned to be a huge tournament, so I am guessing we will have 30-50 people attend. |

So there are a few changes to the previously planned tournament. Sorry for the confusion on everything, I guess I realized that we couldn't run the tournament on 4 tables so that is why I posted it to Van/Sask also now. We should have plenty of room and time to finish the event. |

You have to check out the flier for Nationals, it is really cool. http://foosballboard.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=7081 |

That's cool. |

Sounds great Will, this is going to be a great weekend. Fireball  Can't wait. |
| ||
|
What are the chances Semi Pro doubles will be finished on Saturday? I was kind of hoping to be able to drive back to Calgary at a reasonable hour. |
| ||
|
*bleep* me I just realized now this is the weekend I'm in Edmonton. Great! |
| ||
|
Linda I figure it will be in the last couple rounds by 8:00. After a couple rounds of Open Doubles the Semi will resume, so most likely done by 10:00 - could finish by 8:00 though depending on how many players play that event. |
| ||
|
Obviously I'm still Semi-Pro, right? |
| ||
|
Yup |
| ||
|
Will there be wraps for purchase at the venue? |
| ||
|
Yup |

|
Hey Will...wanna throw in some money for the top female to go to Ottawa?  |
| ||
|
You think you can beat Simon?! |
| ||
|
Hey Will, I was just wondering if I am playing as rookie or Semi? Great game last night by the way, You and Paul played really well. |
| ||
|
Dammit! That's a good question Nathan...it's a possibility :) |
| ||
|
Nathan, you looking for a date?  |
| ||
|
Chris you are a rookie, Linda, I would love to but I'm not adding money for anything so I can't do that. |
| ||
|
Meh no worries Will. It was worth a shot :) |
| ||
|
Any deals on rooms for out of towners or local drunks  aka Lance LOL |
| ||
 Lance & Pat were playing in the warm-up. He would like to know if there was anything in the works. for rooms.  |
| ||
|

| ||
|

I just noticed I didn't put rookie doubles on that list at the start. There is a rookie doubles tournament also - 3:00 Sat. |
