Hmmm...Well if top cut starts at 9:00, then one would assume that between +3, bathroom breaks, and time extensions that the Masters would let out around 1:30-2:00 PM. If VGC registration for the Masters was from 10:00-11:00/11:30, then that would give all but the top four a chance to play; and if it were done from 11:00-12:00/12:30, then that would give all but the finalists a chance, too.

So maybe one of those?

Not to worry Johnny, I'm sure we'll be able to work it out.

Is there anything y'all want on Friday night? We'll have the ballroom from 6:30 pm - 1:00 am.

Look, just because you're moving up in the world doesn't mean you can't come and join us.

Mike, I'm usually all over the place, but I really want to make this one for the third year in a row!

Would you be interested in running any alternate format tournaments? Common/uncommon, draft, singleton, unlimited, DX-on expanded, etc...Lots of possibilities!

I guess more to the point, though: would anyone else be interested in playing in these? Mike won't be interested in running them unless others are interested in playing. :p

Yeah, I would like to see an interest before I set something up. Don't forget, we have the huge ballroom for Friday night, 6:30 pm - 1:00 am.
 
Yes, we're still around, lol. Mia and I took a little well deserved break from Pokemon after Cities and NEX Prereleases. We're back in Pokemon mode and getting ready for the BIG weekend.

We'll start making some announcements over the next few weeks so keep an eye on this thread. We'll also post everything over on pokemonBUZZ.com and on the Houston Pokemon facebook page. Be sure to get over there and "Like" us.

Make sure you get your Hilton Hotel room or rooms booked and make sure you do it under the Pokemon Regional block so that you can save some money. 79.00 + tax = 92.43 and that's a great deal for such a nice, huge hotel. This deal is for April 12 - April 15 Thursday - Sunday.

This group rate is good until March 30th. They may and can offer the price afterwards IF they have rooms available but don't take that chance.

DON'T FORGET - If you're flying in, MAKE SURE you fly into Bush IAH (North Houston). FREE shuttle every 30 minutes to and from the hotel. DO NOT fly into Hobby Airport (South Houston), it's on the other side of town and NO free shuttle.

If you're driving - here's a great tip - Think Murphy's gas stations (Walmart) because they're always cheaper than the name brand stations, we use them all the time. Go to the Murphy's website and print a list of Murphy's gas stations on your route to Houston. Save yourself some money.
 
Meh, I just use this. It updates automatically whenever new credit card information comes available.
 
I live in the austin area and didnt know where to post this but, is there anyone else in austin that plays competitively that might also want to go to this or any austin playtest groups i could get in on

The Austin Pokemon League at Dragons Lair.
 
Hotel note,

MAKE SURE you use the Pokemon block when booking your room or rooms at the Houston Hilton North.

I will pull the names off the Pokemon Block list for the raffling off the sealed box of cards. If you book your room or rooms without getting in the block, your name will not be on the list.

Also remember that booking through the Pokemon Block gets you free internet in the room.

Pokemon Block - $79.00 + tax = UNDER $93.00

How is the Juniors Champion (or any Champion) from last year not featured in your video? Natalia did go undefeated last year after all...... :) Very cool video nonetheless. Looking forward to seeing Mike and the crew again in April.

Our intention wasn't about making a video about the winners.
