Please keep the following in mind:

TCG and VGC events will both begin on Saturday. That means you will need to pick one to register for. If you change your mind afterward, you will simply need to go through normal registration for the other event.

To cut down on unwanted email traffic, we are using a separate email list like this one for the TCG & VGC. These lists are different from the one you are receiving this message through, so you will want to sign up the appropriate list!

For VGC info: send an email to "[email protected]"

Either way, you'll receive an email asking you to verify that you wish to join. That email will have a link in it. I would recommend against clicking the link; instead just press "reply" and then "send" to verify. You should then receive an email confirming you have joined.
