Want to have TWO chances to win the TBA and the other cool TBA door prizes? All you have to do is bring someone who has never played in one my tournaments and you will be given a SECOND ticket for the drawing. Not only that, the new player also receives two tickets It`s that simple! TWO chances to win for both of you! Bring another and you get three tickets, etc.! WHOA!!!



FUN CONTEST: Guess the Damage Counters!


I`m offering this fun contest for everyone to have a chance to win a TBA!!! What you do is try to guess the amount of Damage Counters in the jar. Closest person to the correct # of Damage counters in the jar wins the prize! In case of a tie, the winner will be decided randomly by die roll between the tied contestants. Anyone can enter this contest (meaning parents and siblings of players can enter) but each person only gets one guess slip to cast their best guess. You must be present to win.


FUN CONTEST #2 : Coloring Contest


Like to win a TBA given out in this contest? 2 random winners will be chosen for the grand TBA prizes in this contest. One winner will receive the TBA prize and the other winner will receive the SURPRISE! prize. The pictures to be colored or drawn will be provided on site along with crayons or you can even bring in one you colored yourself at home!

:pokeball: Perhaps extra packs or a copy of the Emerald game again. I know Timothy hasn't stopped playing it since he got it, so it must be pretty good. I won't be greedy and say a DS or anything like that. I never win the door prizes anyway, so it doesn't really matter to me. :pokeball:

:wink:In all honesty, I would rather win the tourney. After the experience of Nationals and before, I need something like this, to help rekindle my interest in the game, which has been waning as of late. :frown:

:tongue: But I digress....Sensei, you always come up with something awesome for the top door prize, so we will trust it to your insane mind. Looking forward to this as an awesome end to the Pokemon season. I will see you all there. :thumb:

PS: this is completely off topic, but could you tell me if Wendy has pierced ears? I keep thinking I have seen her wear earings before, but I am not certain. :biggrin:
 
Father Sensei, I shall try my best to drive myself up there this coming August. Although I am planning to participate in the Grinder, I will try my hardest to convince my mom to let me drive myself up there by myself. It has not been confirmed if Rodney is wanting to go or unless he posts soon.
 
i have no clue if i am able to come to this tourny as of right now.
if my schedule is free i will see what i can do to go.
peace all and good night!!!
 
Hope to see you guys there. Make it so! ;)

Leah, yes she does.

Hey, who all is coming? Lets see a show of hands.

Oh, almost forgot to add two special prizes donated by David T! He returned from a trip from Japan and has kindly donated one sheet of Japanese Pokemon postage stamps and one Gonbe (Munchlax) Japanese McDonalds promo as prizes! Thanks David!!!

`Sensei

p.s. Did anyone notice there are TWO top Door prizes this time??? :thumb:

Hi, um I tried calling but whoever it was who answered the phone didn't have any clue about the tourney, so I asked my league professor, and he directed me here. I am supposed to say I am Team Ivy's newest member, and that Totoro sent me. So I'll be there unless the sky falls in.
 
How about a side event draft? heh *nudges Sensei* You know you wanna :)

hum... the dealer of the princess seems to be on the run. some of his recent activities have been shady, methinks...

About Emerald, I was disappointed that they took out the day/night feature. I liked it. The morning times were unfair but I still liked it. It was interesting and made the game feel more real.
I also prefer pokegear to pokenav. pokenav is like a downgrade. Fortunately, I can register more trainers with the pokenav.
I like that items/tools have become more user friendly with the PC.
The new graphics are also cool (the last game I had was Crystal).
