Cube Event in November - anyone interested?

[wv]

Chaps/Chapettes -

 

I want to try and numb the pain of the sadness around the Organised Play changes by hosting an 8-man Cube event on Saturday 26th November.

 

I've found a venue near Tower Bridge that charges £15 an hour for the use of a hall, tables and chairs - make no mistake, it's a pretty dismal venue but it will do the job.

 

All players will split the cost of the venue between them (so I'd say around £10 each), and anyone else who wants to come along to spectate will be asked to donate £2 toward venue fees. There will be no prizes for this event (unless all agree to pay a bit more and we buy a few boosters or something for top 3), and of course anyone is welcome to come and trade / hangout / spectate!

 

We'll film the finals also, to show the world that Cube is EPIC!!!

 

I see this as the start of what could possibly become the 'Cube Masters Series' - if there's enough interest, we'll do it again, bigger and better, and who knows what it might become!

 

Anyway, I need 7 players who can confirm attendance on Saturday November 26th and I'll make it happen.

Awesome!

 

So the following players are confirmed for Saturday November 26th (PLEASE SPEAK NOW IF YOU CAN'T MAKE THIS DATE, AS IF YOU DON'T SHOW UP YOU'LL RUIN THE DRAFT FOR EVERYONE ELSE).

Me
James
Phil D
Louis
Ben
Paul
Thom
Kieran

 

I'll go ahead and confirm the venue, which I've negotiated down to £10 an hour - so that's less than £10 each for an epic afternoon of Cube awesomeness.

 

I'll also be trying to secure a sponsor (Magic Madhouse? DarkSphere?) to see if we can perhaps build a small prize pool for the event.
