St Edward the Confessor Social Club 8/21/04 Crawley West Sussex GB - I believe attendance was 28..

 

[professorbix]

Lebanon Pa had 23 total

10-:3
11-14 :8
15+: 12

a great time was had by all

 

[NoPoke]

Yep Crawley 28 players . I wont be running another one!. Can anyone spot the reason why attendance is so low in the UK? Hint look at the location and scheduling of events.

 

[ukpokemonpro]

www.southeastchallenge.com 8/22/04 Rainham Kent GB

24 players

If this keeps up I will do as encouraged and run them during my wednesday league at least then there is no cost additional to me for the venue. Looks like premier events are cancelled in the UK.

A sad change from the 60 odd players we had at the first pre-release and multiple side events ...

 

[Rainbowgym]

Did you see all those prereleases in the Netherlands, that must have been a great time.

 

[ukpokemonpro]

I guess for Int'l there really is no such thing as a premier event

 

[NoPoke]

7 at the 'Waterfield only' pre-release.

 

[Pokeplayer]

Well...

We had a strong 20 for the Boise Id Pre release!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

3 10 under
4 11-14
13 15 & older

We had a strong 8 in the Booster Draft side event....

You might think this attendance is small but PUI is just starting to help this area...Previous Tournaments have had 14 and 24...There have been only three major tournies in ID....

I will post more details later...............

 

[GreatFox]

20 at Bakersfield, CA

11 (50+)
8 (11-14)
1 (10-)

Most of the regulars were at Worlds... as I assume was the same for the rest with really low attendance.

 

[soslowpoke]

At Worlds we had 6 flights total I believe (maybe it was 5)

The first 3 were overbooked (70-80 people instead of the promised 64) then there were 2 theme deck challenges of 32...I dont know about the other 1 or 2 flights there were though

 

[WeileMom]

Lancaster, CA on Aug 21st had 42:

19 for 15+
18 for 11-14
3 for 10 & U
2 for the Preconstructed

A really good turnout!!!

 

[ProfessorTorchic]

8/22 Creative Gift Baskets-Plano, TX
65

15+ 15
11-14 34
10U 7
Theme Deck Challenge - 9

2 Additional 8 man Booster Draft Side Events

Not too shabby when you consider that we had 7 families going to worlds.

 

[Gym Leader Blaine]

Thank you for everyone reporting your number, I've got then updated. It will be interesting to see what the numbers are for the tournaments this weekend since most will be run then now the Worlds is over.

 

[menoknow]

What did that 1 player in the 10- group get? Did s/he get a box pretty much just for showing up? I don't know if it's allowed--but maybe you moved 1 of your top 11-14 players to 15+ and had the 10- play 11-14. Seems like attendance for 10- is usually quite low (2-3 seems to be about average) and first place i think still get's a full box? I got 3 nephews and a neise ages 5-8...maybe I should start them on a heavy training schedule!

20 at Bakersfield, CA

11 (50+)
8 (11-14)
1 (10-)

[meganium45]

Dragon King St. Peters, MO

Dragon King St. Peters, MO

Had a total of 22!!!

Great attendance considering the majority of the gym was at Worlds!!!

See you all in St. Louis next week! (Saturday 8/28) (OK, I will be at Memphis!!)

See you all in Columbia on 8/29!!!

menoknow:

It is a strictly age based grouping, therefore the lone 10- could not be "lumped in" with the 11-14 for prize structure. So, yes, the lone 10- SHOULD have been awarded the 1st place prize, which in pre's (not at GEnCon) = 36 boosters (box).

 

[Rabid Raichu]

Kriers Cards & Comics 8/21/04 Modesto CA

Total of 21, 12 players - 15+, 7 players - 11-14, 2 players - 10-

Worlds definately affected attendace! okeball:

 

[Hagrid23]

I got 3 nephews and a neise ages 5-8...maybe I should start them on a heavy training schedule!

Please do. The little ones may be geting an easier ride to prizes but they are also key to maintaining the game.
