Sweet. Glad to see this up and running, and happy to see that both North American Majors are now 2 weeks apart now like Wimbledon and the French Open. :D Call out to all you Euros out there: Spike! 2010 September 11th and 12th, Chaos Cup 2010 September 25th and 26th - hit both the new world Majors in 2 weeks!

That is the plan. We wanted to get the Spike! out of the summer months (August) and into September, and Tom wanted to move the Chaos Cup forward into September to avoid the winter (October). The fortunate result of this is that is makes both NA Majors doable for travelers that take 2 weeks off of work. It is my intention to keep the schedule this way to encourage Euros who might be keen to do both, and if not in 2010 then hopefully 2011. :D

I have had a chat with a few of the guys who have gone over for the Chaos Cup and they are not too sure if it is doable still, as we would in affect need to be taking off 3 weeks with the travel either side, still possible for a few of us though :)

I'd like to attend this tournament. The only way of getting from O'Hare International Airport to Downers Grove is renting a car or there is any kind of public transportation?

Thanks in advance for your help!

We can hope. :D Hopefully it's still just a 2 week vacation for you Europeans with a couple of 'personal days' and bto's (banked overtime) worked in to make it doable.

First you're on a plane to the Spike! 2010 9 days from now, and then you're possibly making plans to attend Chaos Cup 2010 2 weeks later? Dark Duke answered the call. :o You rock! :D

The way I see it, it is now or never. Once I come back to Spain, the possibilities of playing the Spike! or the Chaos Cup are close to zero. The only problem, of course, is the money. I have spent a lot of money in the trip I'm doing at the Northwest, and I probably shouldn't go to the Chaos Cup, but I'm still trying to figure it out. Never lose hope, right? Anyway, it will always be cheaper from NYC than from Spain :wink:
