We are going to nationals for the first time since
it was in St Louis. Anyone have an idea when registration will start and end on Friday the 4th?
Last year they had registration open the day before. They had registration open for a short window early on Friday Morning for those few who didn't register the day before. Register the day before to get a few extra minutes of sleep on Friday.
Any way to register online in advance?
I absolutely can not get off of work any day that week. So we will be leaving Seattle on the night of the 3rd landing in Indianapolis at 8:35 am local time Anyone know how long it will take to got to the convention center via taxi? What time was the Friday registration window last year? When did the first round start?
I'm not even sure what day the event is held, if anyone happens to know of a schedule it'd be helpful, as I was planning on flying in Friday afternoon and playing (presumably) Saturday and Sunday, with a late flight out Sunday or Monday morning.
Nationals traditionally runs on Friday and Saturday, with the Finals on Sunday.
This year, it still begins on Friday but earlier than ever. You have to register online beforehand, and physically check-in on Thursday or risk it at the last minute Friday morning 7:00-7:30am. It also looks like the first 9 rounds of Swiss will occur solely on Friday, meaning everyone who isn't Top 32 at that point is free to play in other side events on Saturday.
Yeah I saw that earlier today also, dunno how I feel about the extra day since that's now another day of hotel costs...but eh if I don't crack t32, they have a zoo somewhere around Indianapolis right?
Is there anyway of knowing if you are registered? Cause when I did it there was no confirmation. I entered my info then my credit card and then submit. After that it just took me back to my info page again.
