Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Memphis Unseen Forces PreRelease

It is with a heavy, yet happy heart that I get to make the following announcement.

I have agreed to let Pokedad be the PTO of Memphis, Tennessee starting with the Unseen Forces PreRelease.

I am sure that he will be on here shortly to update with the date and everything of his event. I will be meeting with him this weekend in St. Louis to go over the ordering and other procedures.

I am glad that Memphis will be in good hands.

Given that I have a new son due in August, running Memphis as well as St. Louis would be unfair to my friends and my family. And given that I have a "family" member in Clay willing and able to step to the plate in Memphis, now is the perfect time to make the transition.

Will the Memphisites still see me? Heck yes! Memphis still remains, to me, one of the best Pokemon communities around. Zak, Andrew, Alex and I have developed some great friendships over the past few years, and we are not going to let those go. I have a feeling Memphis will continue to be the "crossroads of the South" where the St. Louis players, and Mississippi players can converge to play with Memphis players in some of the best competition around.

I would like to thank EVERYONE in Memphis for their love and support over the years.

I will definitely talk to you all soon!

Memphis will be in good hands with Clay. Plus, that lets Vince play a "few" more times a year instead of PTO'ing all the time in Memphis.

I wish I could be at this one, but I am pushing my luck, just going to Worlds.

Read my sig....

Zane Krekeler will be born anytime between 7/19/05 and 8/10/05

That will be enough for me to handle, I can't wait!

See you all at Worlds...I will be the one showing off the NEW BABY pictures!!!

Yeah, and Keith, I really believe that once an area has someone ready to go, that area should be given to the local TO, when they are ready to take over. A local person will always have better relationships with their stores and players than an out of town PTO.

Memphis was a definite exception...I will miss that gang, and our constant contact. Still close enough that they know I will sneak on down, and I hope more of them will sneak on up.

Memphis crew...I'm not gonna "guarentee" that I will be there, but if we are talking August, I might be able to sneak on over. I should have a car in the next two weeks so I can start driving to the events. I look forward to possibly being there.

I'm pretty sure it's on the 13th. If you give me some time I'm sure I can find a way where you can be in both places, ending in comic results :tongue: Sorry you won't be there :frown:

Um, Nitia, I do not think you are allowed to charge for gameboy events in TN.

Be careful with that...electronic gaming laws...

Gameboy tourneys are uber cool! Glad to see they are coming in!

Hey Vince, where's St. Louis' Pre info? =/

Maybe now Vince will be up here more!

*Too bad Memphis people won't come up as much. I can always rely on Mew, though. :)*
