All,

The following is a list of players who have committed and/or expressed interest.
Armies will be posted prior to the event. All army lists should be sent to
hilton at admin1s dot com by December 1, 2009.

Also, as a number of out of town people have expressed interest, the Radisson
has granted a special rate of $89.00 per night. To get this rate, you must
contact Rose Hernandez, Director of Sales at (504) 303-3009 M-F between the
hours of 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. to request this rate. If you call the national
Radisson 800 number, the rate will be higher.

Now, as promised, the list of players. If you have requested to borrow an army,
please confirm to me via e-mail that you are still committed and I will send
your army list to you.

Tom Demers
Ricky Jones
Steve Payne
William Jones
Lee Cleveland
Jeff DeWitt
Bob Bass
Walt Burgoyne
Chris Swearengen
Henry Skaggs
Ron Gros
Simone Fraternalli

Of course, more space is available. If your name does not appear here, please
let me know that you are coming. Also, new players are welcome, as we have a
number of players who are just starting.

MISCELLANEOUS

Note for anyone who wants to participate in this unique event, but does not have
a chariot army. I am able to provide up to 5 armies, on a first come-first
reserved basis. I must tell you, if you have not played chariot armies against
each other, you are missing quite the FOG experience.

Also, for those who want to travel the Radisson Hotel is next to the New Orleans
International Airport. Complimentary Shuttle Service is available. If you want
to stay at the Radisson, please let me know so that I can arrange a reduced
rate. If you want to stay in the French Quarter in New Orleans, let me know and
I can point you in the right direction regarding accommodations.

If you have any questions, please e-mail me at: hilton at admin1s dot com

Any chance of an Alexandrian Macedonian list here?

Just to bring out the best in, say, a Minoan player?

Ricky has been off since Steve had his way with him at Bayou Wars last June. 25-0 there as well.
