@Karl7 Where are our updates? I saw some photos and even a question about a victory. Nothing here. Do you want to start another thread for live feed updates?
You can upload photos from your phone. The icon for it is hidden: slowly swipe the icon bar from left to right and it will show up. It should be the first upload button.

Damn, I wish I were there! Also, the average age of this group is younger than I expected. This is good!

I will try to get a post up on the results tonight with more pictures. Was up late traveling last night, so haven’t had a chance for a more thorough summary.

@Karl7 Looking forward to it!

I am working on an official final graphic for the tournament. Hope to have it posted soon.
GG. I will also be contacting WOTC once all graphics are complete to get us setup with dates in Renton next year.

Wow, this was a marathon tournament. Everyone was up at least until 2-3am, with people just crashing in rooms and couches, rising up the next morning at 7am to eggs and bacon and then dice, with games going by 9am. I got less than 4 hours of sleep both nights, that plus the beer and chest bumping really took it out of me.
But nonetheless, everyone I think had a good time. If there was one area of improvement, I think the moderator declared victories were unsatisfying for some. This was understandable since you’re asking someone to declare a winner based on an arbitrary stopping point in the game. Many of the games the moderators had to call were close enough that while you could still see one side was winning, there was a chance the other side could rally. I don’t like tourney rules, but maybe now I see value. Live and learn.
Regardless, there was definitely a lot of KILL KILL KILLING! Maybe next year I will be out from under my “family contribution time” deficit that I can host this thing again! As is, no one punched a hole in the wall, or threw a chair through any windows so I am probably good getting the house again!!
Peace!.. er, wait, WAR!

Some random photos above. The one of us toasting was after the final game, which was a split decision for Vancouver. I voted for Tacoma but Juan and Joel were for Vancouver. Joel did not participate in the battle. That was a tight game.
