For those wishing to book their hotel room at the venue early:

Use Group Code CCP.

The rate is $82 a night (regular price is between $95-$120).

This price is good for Sept 2nd thru Sept 10, so you could stay longer and do some sightseeing in Chicago either before or after the Chaos Cup.

Oh noes! I just booked some rooms using that nifty group code and discovered something horrible. The group name is Choas Cup!

You get no respect from the hotel...

The Chaos Cup 2013 logo. Looks like Cha(o)s has been enjoying the benefits of allegiance to Slaanesh!

Do you have to be present to win any of the giveaways that you get tickets for from pre-registering?

[Jonny_P]

Nope... you mean if you need to leave early or something or are out to lunch?

I usually try to do raffles right before I announce the next round in hopes that everyone is back from breaks.

I was more asking for myself of in the event I cannot make it to the event.

[Jonny_P]

Oh ok, sorry I misinterpreted. In that case, yes, you would need to be present at the tournament since that is the only way to obtain raffle tickets. A couple times last year, someone was in the bathroom or still getting food when I called their name. At least at some point they came up and got their prize and got recognized by the crowd.

Unfortunately, there really isn't any way I can give out raffle tickets to people not in attendance. It would be quite boring for 80+ coaches to stand around hearing me announce all these people that win prizes but not there. Plus, there is no way to "buy" them. You will get them based on when you pre-register. I don't like the idea of paying more to get better odds to win. Unless it was for charity, which then it's ok. But this isn't that kind of tournament.

Most gamers are always out to lunch.

So true. It happened last Saturday. Waited pretty damn long for my chicken fingers!

Missed some announcements. Sorry Xtreme.

Sneak peek at the Chaos Cup 2013 dice. Pre-reggers get both. On-site registered only gets the basic purple one.
