Cool, just like last year, in Hyatt Regency Dallas. I'm attending.
This may be a silly question but are people allowed to just come and watch? I haven't played the TCG in quite a few years (still play the video games) but thinking about getting back into it so would be fun to be able to watch.
Just a heads up, all the blocked rooms are sold out! If you didn't get one by now, you're out of luck!
...like me!
Why don't you play?.. it would be the perfect time to get back into the game. There are plenty of deck ideas here on the gym... or if you don't have any newer cards, pick up a theme deck at Target for $14.
I spoke with my rep with the hotel. If you have reservations for the hotel or need reservations, you need to call today to get the $115.00 room rate. If you have reservations at a higher rate, call...cancel your room..rebook under the "Pokemon State Room Block". She told me that no one would be turned down at this room rate, today. THIS IS THE LAST DAY, MARCH 4th TO GET THIS ROOM RATE!!!

As for parking, there was a huge open parking area to the far right of the hotel. They were charging 5.00 for the entire day, come and go as you wish. It was basically like walking a city block or two but well worth the price.
Food, a lot of people ordered pizza. Go to the concierge desk (main lobby) and ask for delivery menus. Keep in mind that you'll need to hang out near the front when ordering delivery because the delivery driver normally won't go to the rooms or play the "I'll meet you somewhere in the hotel" game.
Parking - I parked in back - don;t remember the price - either 5 or 10 bucks, but there was a guy there trying to get me to pay when I came back after lunch. I played hardball, and he didn;t make me pay, but apparently some of the lots have free back in and some not.
Food - Right before the aurgument over my god-given right to re-park for free, we had stopped at Subway which was near there.
Since we need some trash talk in this thread, I'll start:
If I get paired against Daryl, he's gonna pay for last year. :thumb:

First of all, I almost feel like your are attemtping to diminish the quality of my victory by implying it was a first turn KO. I beat you after a long and valient struggle. I was just reminding my son of that victory yesterday. It was definatly one of the highlights of my pokemon career. From my deck, you would have thought I had specifically built it to beat you. It should have been an absolute slaughter. And then, I looked down and somehow it was like 4 to 4 in prize cards. It was amazing you even made the game close.
You don;t have to worry about donks from me this year. I think it is cruel to knockout pokemon. Much more humane to gently ease them into the lost zone.
