Any preferences?
We will do pre-signups for sure as we have limited space....

Preferably not the weekend of the 18th if possible as I have a feeling my girlfriend will want to go see my Mom, whose birthday is the 19th.

Loving all of the ideas, especially the seeding carrying over from both days- and the doubles on day two adding to it! To be honest, I for one liked the idea that was brought up at the store about the 2nd day doubles being randomly selected rather then based around seeding, if anything so that it would be an absolute surprise as to what army you have- and you can't try to figure out who you're with based on points (some of us math kids can do that. ) But! Comp would also be something I could see playing a nice impact on things for a change, as long as it's a reasonable system for such.

The thing with Random Draw pairings in 40k doubles is that it can lead to some REALLY overpowered or badly underpowered teams....Trust me, I've run one before. Pairing based on rank will generally mean that most of your bases are covered, and let weaker players learn from the best so to speak.

didn't we also do a random paired tourney that ended up with double landraider double TH/SS termies?
I seem to remember that happening....

I just cant wait! just one bad thing is how big the t shirts go When you sign up, you tell us what size t-shirt you want is what is probably going to happen. so if you ditch on the tourney once you've signed up, just send someone else your tshirt size to play in your place...

actualy guy used LC termys with furios charge and i used TH/SS ones. and i think in the game we played "shannon & randy" guy had his termys start in a building and had imobalised his own raider on turn 1n... ;D
