BOB,
Great to see your doing both northeast and new england regionals. Guarenteed to be at milford regionals but im still up in the air for the northeast regionals due to im stuck on going there or greensboro,nc regional. I am also happy your regionals is gonan be after the release of emerald so we can all use the newest cards in milford. :biggrin:
 
I'll be there with the whole Chu crew. ;) Can't wait for everyone..this'll be the first real event with the TJ Crew and NY gang coming together. Should be awesome!

And yeah, Jon, NJ isn't in the Northeast region. Guess they couldn't find a venue in NY. ;p

I was shocked when i found it to not be at rockefeller plaza. They get all premier events that NY is in the running for but i guess with the building of nintendo world they want to wait till another big event hits before they put it back at the plaza. Great to see it close to the old home of the ECSTS and i am still debating if im gonna take the trip to jersey for this one or NC for sensei's regional.

Hopefully see ya all next month but if not ill see ya in milford. :thumb:
 
its not in rockefeller plaza probably because of 2 reasons:

1. its near the opening of "nintendo world" -_-
2. you guys think there's enough room? well...you guys just keep thinkin that. rockefeller plaza only has enough room for about 80 people. also, it would be PURE CHAOS if regionals was there.
 
Ah, memories of the Super Trainer Showdown.... :thumb:

I'll definitely be in attendence. Hoping for a great tournament!
 
Hello Everyone! We are running this in NJ because we were unable to find a suitable venue in NYC. I believe that everyone will love the Meadowlands Sheraton. The hotel rooms themselves are nice. The venue for our event is just over 5100 square feet. I am going down to look at the room in person next week. I believe that we should have seating somewhere around 375. The hotel has great access as it is in the meadowlands sports plex area(just 1 mile down the road). Many of you have already been there and know what I am talking about. This will be FUN.

looking forward to see you there
Tom

1. it opens the same day as the regionals >_<
2. thay cant hold a big event like that. If our league leader sees over 200 people there he will have a heart attack.

and im going to go to this regional so i have to miss the grand opening of nintendo world.

We are still looking for a couple of Professors who would like to judge at the Northeast Regional Championships on May 14 in the Meadowlands. If you would like to volunteer, please contact Tom Shea at [email protected]. Thanks for your help.
