The people on the spreadsheet seem to imply that it's for an east coast mirror. That's just a guess though.

well it's not a very good guess since there's tabs for the other sites

I'm wondering if we could totally play Tricon: The Next Generation as a little side event for this (of course, excluding James and I from playing the packet that we wrote).

[armitage]

Sure, if there's enough interest (say 5 or 6 people or more for a shootout) we could play that or any of the other side events; I don't imagine we'd have demand for more than a shootout on any of them. I'd also be interested in playing SHEIKH, if there's demand for that.

Also, I only reserved rooms for Saturday. If there's enough side event demand to spill over into Sunday, there are certainly some open rooms we can requisition, but not necessarily in the same place.

As it stands, there are only 3 teams who have emailed me to sign up (or consist of myself). Please sign up soon if you would like to play VCU Open. Thanks.
