Challenge of Q'ermitt - 04/18-04/19 '09 - Mississauga Canada
I have booked the location for Challenge of Q'ermitt V. Currently it is the same location as last year - which is my basement!
I know that there was some concern about the cramped quarters, seeing as the attendance for last year's tourney was at a record high. Given that the attendance has fluctuated wildly I am reluctant to book a bigger space in case I end up losing tons of money again. However, I have decided on a course of action which should suit everyone concerned.
1) I will be looking into and then booking an alternate space on the hope that attendance will be at least comparable to last year's.
2) I figure that the magic number for attendance that I will have at my place is 14. If the number of pre-payers is greater than that, then I will keep the rented space. If the number of pre-payers is 14 or less by the time that I can cancel with full refund, then I will cancel the space and hold it at my place.
I fully realize that I may have 14 people pre-pay for the tourney and then have more than that show up on the day, but I figure that there will not be so many show up unexpectedly that I will not be able to accommodate them at my place.
So in other words - pre-pay people!
The Challenge of Q'ermitt V
April 18-19th 2009
The tourney will be showcasing at least one new board, and I know that there were other people who mentioned that they might bring some custom boards*, so it will be interesting see what we have available!
*if enough people give me enough notice that they will be bringing custom boards, then I will make a Best Custom Board trophy.
Prizes
Preregistration draw
1st, 2nd, 3rd Place
Best Team
Most TDs
Most Cas
Best Smack-Talk
Most Entertaining (an alteration of the Most Sporting award)
Best Custom Board (a possibility)
Pricing
Tickets will be $40 with a $5 discount for early payment
I will post something when there is new rules for the upcoming board and for any other changes which may take place.
If people would like to start the discussion about the draft, then I am open for discussion on the matter. My understanding is that people are okay with the hiring of star players, but do not want the stars getting additional skills. The floor is open on this one, so feel free to speak your piece.
Look forward to seeing you out there!

Here are some of the pitches that are being played on at the CoQ:
[The Orc Stadium....
The Mordinhiem Stadium...
The Norse Stadium...
The Dessert Stadium....
The Skaven Sewer Stadium....
The Goblin Swamp Stadium...
The Halfling Stadium.....
Q'ermitt Stadium.....
The Undead Graveyard Stadium....
The Chaos Dwarf Stadium....

There is also a dwarf pitch (have to find the pics for that) and the new pitch this year will be the Necro Fairy Tale board (see House Rules section for rules).
There also promises to be at least three custom board being brought in by paricipants so it should be very exciting!

Here are some pictures of the goodies to be had at the CoQ:
For those who pay early, they have a chance to win a set of those amazing Inducement cards that were done up by the lads at Thunderbowl.

Here is a pic of the vendor in the sculting stage - he has a rolling BBQ and is holding a hot dog in a pair of tongs. This model is a great addition to any halfling team, can be a turn counter for many teams, and is also useful when implenting the rules for the hot dog vendor in the halfling pitch in the CoQ!!
Here are the new Q'ermitt dice - the final set - Earth!
(note: the Q'ermitt symbol is printed in white, as the mock up made it to hard to see with the gold swirls in the dice)
Two dice will be given to all participants. For anyone who wanted to buy previous sets (fire, water, air) these are available in limited supply for a cost of $5 per set.
