We’re planning our next Face to Face event in Cardiff (FTF) and looking for players that might be interested. This will be a points based - success system with a UK team vs a US team over the w/end. For those that are interested then get back to me in the near future so that we can work out interest and which module to run.
I’m in the US and I’m up for it. What is a points system? Like, play X # of turns or until such-and-such time, and then evaluate the sum of all natio points?
US team: Location Illinois, date 13-15th Aug (to be confirmed) and time for the FTF. Date to be confirmed (btw it was a UK team… )
UK Team: Cardiff.

Dear Friends,
A couple years ago we played a ME marathon vs an English team, and it was one of the most exhilarating experiences ever. There was a turn every hour or so. We did the first one on Friday night, then staring Saturday morning the marathon started. After a little sleep we did it again on Sunday. Wow. Exciting. We lost that game, so we want revenge. It will be ours – August 13-15.
Web and his son Cameron, Bob Turkot, Brian Jurczyk and myself are “all in” . Bob and the Ewell’s we’ll be staying at my house. Brian lives nearby. The rest of you are invited as well although I am out of bedrooms. I live in Champaign Illinois (airport code) CMI, or you can fly to Indianapolis, or even Chicago and rent a car. There are nearby hotels in Tuscola or Savoy.
I also would love to do a FTF, but in my case it will be my first. Is there an actual schedule being hammered out here, or are talks still theoretical?
No talks, theoretical or real. I just asked the question becuase I would like to see another one this year. So hopefully, the question starts the talk.
My next vacation block this year runs 19 March thru 13 April 2012.
(I’m on an academic calendar. I know this is actually next year. No correction needed.)
Any FTF game outside of that range might not be impossible, but will require some fancy footwork. And the closer we can get to the southeastern US, the better.
