The NE Regional FOG Tournament will be held on November 6-7, 2010 at the Bedford Plaza Hotel, 340 Great Road, Bedford MA. Rooms are available for $75 per night. http://www.bedfordplazahotel.com/

Alternate accomodations available nearby.

4 rounds, 800 pts, lists allowed from any published book. List checker TBD.

Schedule:

Saturday, November 6:
Round 1: 0900-1300
Round 2: 1400-1800
Round 3: 1900-2300

Sunday, November 7:
Round 4: 0900-1300

Only the top three results will contribute to tournament score, so players have the OPTION of playing only 3 games if they wish. If a player elects to skip a round, they must declare which round they will skip at the beginning of the
tournament.

Numbers permitting, there will be a beginner's division open only to players who have previously competed in no more than one tournament.

Hope to see everyone there!

Is the $ 75 a special rate ? When I rang to ask they were $89 per night.

Its supposed to be the standard rate for that time period. Let me call them and get back to you.

Okay, it is a special rate. When you book, tell the person to look for the code: "Tom 75"

If there is any other problem, let me know.

Dan Martz has agreed to check list for the NE Regional Tournament (details
below). Please submit lists for the regular division to Leadman25@aol.com no
later than October 31st. Those interested in the beginner division should
submit lists to me at iverson.jm@verizon.net.

Thanks Dan, for agreeing to help out.

Who will be the referee Matt?

I will. In the finest tradition of Babyshark, I will also be playing, but will bow out in case of even numbers.

I'd like to attend but wouldn't want to travel so far and miss out on a chance to finally play each other.

It's close to Boston right?

Its just outside Boston. Assuming no rushhour traffic, the hotel is about 30 minutes from the airport.

I'm sure we could arrange a game in there somewhere...

Please PM me if you haven't already.

For those coming to the NE Regional Tournament, bring some extra cash. We will be doing charity dice-offs for two 15mm painted armies, an early German and a Medeival French. Proceeds will benefit the Al Garnache Memorial scholarship fund.

If you are planning on playing next weekend in Bedford MA, and your name isn't on this list, let me know ASAP

1. Me - SHNC
2. Paul Georgian - Nikephorian Byzantine
3. Dan Martz Jr. - Later Ottoman Turks
4. Aubrey Hopkins - Later Ottoman Turks
5. Bob Rioux - Swiss
6. Peter Celella - Dailami Dynasties
7. Justin Tebo - Imperial German

Again Just want to thank Matt for finding the location and organizing the tournament and going out of his way again to win the tournament. Will the results be posted and turned in for the rankings?

Justin

Sure thing! Thanks for coming up. I submitted the results in to the record keeping folks a while ago, and got an email from Martin yesterday saying that he's been swamped with job stuff and is behind. They'll get in there though. Hope you and Peter can get a CT tourney together soon.

BTW, FOG day the Sunday after Thanksgiving if you can make it up.
