Title: ramapocon-ii-day-3-director-report
Date Published: 2000-05-09
OK, after a long Saturday night, I woke up around 9am and finished putting
up signs directing people to the Sunday location of RCon - the H-wing
Auditorium. I get there and the tables are not set up so George Gundry,
Mike Publicover, and Johnny Rivera (someone else too...cannot remember)
help me out and we get set up. People start to come in and then Rich
shows up even though he wasn’t supposed to. He tells me he calls in sick
;) so he can play! Great news for me, the more competition, the more fun
it is for me at least to watch. So after all is said and done prepping
for the tournament, 36 people show up and form 8 different teams of 4. We
discussed making this event sanctioned but then realized we will
manipulate the pairings and that makes it unsanctioned. It works out
better for everyone because that way people could have more fun with it.
I know that Bob Caton played a experimental deck 'for the heck of
it because it was non sanctioned. Plus all the incentive people needed
was the Trophies I had up for grabs. First place was to get the Endor Set
of foils and once again I used George Gundry's idea of getting posters
signed. I had 3 up for grabs for this one. The competition was stiff
with lots of very good players. After about 45 minutes, two people, Neil
Hoffman and Ivan Turner from Staten Island show up in time for the second
round. Bart was gracious enough to switch teams to play with them and we
now had 7 teams of 4 and 2 teams of 3.

So in all the event went great with everyone's help. I kind of messed up
the pairing 3 times! ;). Chris Twig won the overall best score and earned
the Endor Set of foils. Team Charlie’s Angels won the team tournament with
the trophies and the Team Champ T-shirts. Afterwards I raffled off 10
support. I also had 38 more foils to give away that everyone had to pick
face down.
Props-
-Rich Haman helping me with the command cards throughout the entire event
so I would not mess the pairings again ;).
-Bart Robinson for switching teams when part of a team showed up.
-Aaron Kingery and Arthur Wright for helping Rich and I figure the team
tournament results in the 'special room'
-Doug Faust, Ray Bordier for helping throughout the day.
-The people randomly following my arrows on campus thinking I was holding
the 'Open House'
-Everyone for playing!
-Everyone for signing my cards in my Light Side Deck!
