Thank God I'm Home!!!
What a day, a Great day that is. Turn out was less then expected as we didn't see the huge out of town players we were expecting. Ended up with 25 players(Break down below) and were they ready to go. Start time was sheduled as 12:30 but got started late, deck checks took a little longer then expected. Once tourney started though things began running fast & furious and the pace and play never died down. Great matches and mix up of decks. Amphy came to visit as well as Golem, Gardevoir, Sceptile and Salamence.
Most unusual deck was a Golem/Wailord Ex deck, used Wailord to suck up damage then used Golems 1st attack to dish all that damage +20 right back at their active. Most original would probably have been the Amphy/Kingdra Ex combo that also included Wailmer-Altaria-Girafrig & Plusle, it worked for her.
For the most part matches were running close to 20-30 minutes with a couple actually going right down to the wire. Had players from age 8 all the way up into the 40(Won't tell them your 42 Tom, it'll be a secret). Even had a husband & wife combo tie for 11th( although I think Cathy could have taken Ken had it come down to that) All in all a GREAT day was had by all. No serious rules violations, sportsmanship was great and the CC at Gamers Edge went off without a hitch. Many, many thanks to Ray & John at Gamers Edge for
1) Sponsoring the CC in Chandler
2) Kicking in with such Great Prize support
3) Always being the 1st to step up and get the tournaments and Pre-Releases for all of the local players here. Thanks a bunch guys!!!

thought it was registration at noon and start time was 12:30pm what changed things?? lmk i need to reach Metro
they dont know about the time change.

also: Showtime in Tempe........is Noon registration and 12:30pm start or has that changed??
I will be confirming things with Chino Valley and Tuscon TODAY. will let u know.

UPDATE:
Chino valley (in AZ) moved the date to 2/21 12:30 registration and start time to be between 1pm-1:30pm. I will be judging and TMS there as well, Chris will be judging too (depending on turnout will determine if we need you as well. will keep ya updated)I will see if i can get a tentative headcount for Chino Valley and Tuscon.

Tuscon info should be confirmed later today will update.

Patricia, Nothing has changed. Gamers Edge has always been listed as a 12:00PM start. Just did a double check and sure enough over on the Pokemon Site, under list of Tournaments it shows Noon at a start time.
"City Championships
North American Events
Gamer's Edge 2/14/2004
12:00:00 PM Chandler AZ US details "

The 30 minutes won't hurt us any as you know everything will be running behind shedule, never fails. So unless Ray did this and never bothered to tell either of us I just went along with the time posted, call me at home, you know the number.

he figured noon start time as registration time....its all good ..its just how he enters things. he may not be there anyway he is going to the doctor he may have strep ...will keep ya updated on this as well. I told him no worries as we have always ran things anyway regardless. he is cool with that.
