Just a question- but do you have to be there on the 31st, because I 100% will not be able to make it.
But, I was thinking about making an appearance.

No, everyone has the option of beginning the tournament on either Friday night
or Saturday morning.

Friday night is the better way to go if you plan on going out. Waking up early Saturday after being out all night is no fun. Top that off with a swinger couple trying to get your drunk friend to leave with them...

good times, good times.

Lol...oh, dear. It's even funnier when said friend doesn't even realize it's happening, then denies it

what are the official rules/settings for this? I would assume, 6 player standard seq esc adj on the classic map, but steelhorse's tourney says that it is using the closest settings possible, and is all 4 player and chained...

The rules for RiskTOC are posted on our website, in detail. They will be accessible shortly once the other info is up.
All settings for the RiskTOC live tournament are:
Classic
Standard
Sequential
Escalating
Chained
The number of players depends on the number of entrants, the number of people playing at one time, and how the brackets work out evenly, but are generally 4 or 5 player games. Rarely, we have a 3 player game if the numbers can't work out evenly.
All settings for CC Satellite tournaments are:
Classic
Standard
Sequential
Escalating
Chained
The number of players per game is always 4 because it's easiest for me to bracket, which is why there are 64 entrants.
The only difference between the two is the number of players per game.

If I go, will you buy the liquor, with my money, then drink til we're both retarded?
Because that's the only way I'll go, since I can't drink in the bars.

That's a pretty sweet prize. Are they going to do a full run of them later or are they only doing the 1000 box run?
