40k Sold Out; spots still available

Folks,

We have sold out the 40k tournament.   However, we have a couple of folks that need to drop.  If you would still like to play please email me RoyersT@gmail.com.  This is first come first serve, but anyone else will be put on a waitlist in case we have other last minute drops.

The Final Countdown!

We are in the home stretch until the Bugeater GT!  Instead of monthly updates on this site, expect weekly updates now.  We have four spots left in 40k, and a few more in fantasy.  So if you know someone that is interested in going, get them to the Bugeater!

A few key things to remember:

  • Make sure all of your models are tournament compliant.  WYSIWYG, 3 color minimum, and your bases need to be either painted or flocked to be on the table
  • List submissions are due the 25th.  Email them to RoyersT@gmail.com

Next week we’ll have another update on Friday night events, food, etc.  See you in a few weeks!

Hotel Information

Folks, this year we are using the Hampton Inn West Omaha as our hotel.  Last year’s feedback indicated that players wanted a hotel with more things provided for free, like breakfast.  To act on that feedback we are trying the Hampton Inn for this year.  The Hampton inn is 2 miles closer to the tournament, has free breakfast and wifi, and has been well received when we’ve used it for debate teams traveling to attend our tournament during the school year.

The rate is $94 a night for a room with 2 queen beds (so a little cheaper than last year’s group rate).  The group code is MWD (Millard West Debate), and you need to get reservations in by May 9th to get the group rate.  The hotel is located near a lot of restaurants and stores, and is only 10 minutes away from the school.  The link to the hotel website can be found here.
