McMaster will be hosting a mirror of the VCU Trash Tournament on Saturday August 27th 2011.

As per usual, arrive at around 9:00 am so we can get play started by 9:30 am.

I am looking for teammates to play this with. I will also be bringing my Community Chest side event (viewtopic.php?f=19&t=11890) to this tournament.

Guelph will most likely be able to field a full team, and 2 people at the very least. Confirmation is forthcoming.

This tournament has been rescheduled for Sunday, October 16th, with all other details remaining the same. We will additionally be hosting a mirror of Michigan's Missiles of October tournament on Saturday the 15th, and as was the case with COLT and Moon Pie, we would be happy to work out some sort of discount for teams interested in playing both tournaments.

I don't see why it wouldn't be. If it's up to me at all, you're of course more than welcome to play, Aaron.

Guelph will be there for this, in addition to MOO the previous day. Definitely one, and possibly more teams will be there for both.

Please note that the venue has changed from MDCL to the second floor of the McMaster University Student Center, #51 on the map above. This will be the same as the location for MOO the previous day. There is parking right in front of the Student Center in lot B (5 dollars all day, I believe?) Please arrive for 9:00 AM or so, and we will look to start by 9:30 and end by 7 PM at the latest.
