Hey guys, yes it will be on the 19th, 2000 points. No painting requirement for this one, but fully assembled and WYSIWIG (to reasonable levels) will be expected. Comp will be scored as per the King-Con comp scoring, which should be easily found on this page.

40k Composition: 4 points of Objective scoring by Organizer:
Are Troops the single Largest portion of the Army? Does the Army contain any Special Characters? Does less than 40% of the army have an armour value, or a toughness of equal to or greater than 6? Does the army contain less than 30 % of each of Elite, Fast Attack, HQ and Heavy Support choices?
3 Points of composition scoring by opponent (Warhammer and 40k)
0 - "Ard Boyz special" A very hard list filled with the best troops and a lot of minimizing/maximizing to increase ability to crush its opponents.
1 - A hard army with some minimizing/maximizing that requires at l least some skill to win with.
2 - Nicely balanced list that is competitive but needs good tactics to win.
3 - Well themed and balanced list that requires good tactics to win and one or more significant weaknesses.
Sportsmanship:
Scaling from 5 (excellent game, would LOVE a rematch) through to 1 (could not enjoy this game, would not want to play this person again -- See organizer)
Presentation: 3 points, scored by opponent.
Is the army fully painted? Does it appear as if effort was put into the painting of this army? Would you consider this army to be of above average quality in its painting?
NOTE: Armies that are NOT 100% painted can still score the other two points

Shannon, I think you mean in the organizer comp: "Does less than 40% of the army have an armour value, or a toughness EQUAL TO OR GREATER than 6?" (or something else rather than LESS, otherwise if more than 40% of my nid army has gaunts and warriors and raveners, etc, I will get dinged for a point of comp or am I missing something (we must have lots of the new T6 MCs in the list to get the comp point - lol)
Also the point at the bottom says there is a 75% painting requirement when Matt indicated above that there would be no painting requirement.
Matt, could the sportsmanship score be altered so that 5 is "the ultimate sportsman/woman" (or something equivalent in intent - the understanding that each player is trying to rate one of their opponents at the top of this category) and 4 is "good sportsman - would LOVE a rematch" (or something like that). In KinCon I had 3 excellent games with opponents I would play again any time so how could they not get a 5 rating? That way most people would get 4s (maybe some 3s), and a few would get 5s (hopefully very few low scores in this category)

Sounds good. I know I'll get good sportsmanship scores but I'm definitely pooched on the comp/painting! Oh well, main thing is to get some games in for good times. Looking forward to it.
