godswearhats Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 Dimensional Cascade Podcast is proud to present King of Cascadia, 2014 This 2-day GT will be held on January 3rd and 4th at the new Mox Boarding House in Bellevue, WA. It is a somewhat unusual event, in that it has two separate events running simultaneously within it. King of Cascadia This invitational pits the top eight ranked players in the Northwest region against each other for the coveted title of King of Cascadia. All eight of these players will have automatically qualified for a spot to represent the region in North Carolina at the US Masters in February. Hero of Cascadia This is the open portion of the GT, with the winner being named Hero of Cascadia and earning the 9th spot in the 10-person roster for the US Masters. There will also be prizes for top 3 in all categories (overall, general, sportsperson, hobbyist) as well as interesting prizes for other tournament related activities (most Dimensional Cascades for instance!). Finally, the Hero of Cascadia portion of the GT is considered a Masters qualifier, and so the highest ranked player (not counting the nine who have already qualified) will win the 10th spot on the Masters squad. Player Pack Both tournaments will be using the US Masters Player Pack and FAQ. However, the one difference is that we will use Best Overall to decide the winner of both tournaments (not Best General). List Submission Deadline All lists must be submitted by Dec 21st, 2014 (which means you must buy your ticket by then too!). Why then? I will need time to validate everyone's Swedish score, and to give people the opportunity to correct any mistakes, all during the holiday season (which, when you have three kids, is quite the season). Questions and comments welcomed! Tickets can be ordered at http://dimensionalcascade.com/KoC priced at $35 each. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godswearhats Posted December 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 I'm trying to iron out the lunchtime snafus that we had for SPDM, so hopefully we'll be able to pre-order lunch and just have it ready to go exactly at break time.

Jvesal Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 Thinking of Driving down from Van for this, any suggestions on places to stay near the venue? or Accom. Would rather not sleep in my car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godswearhats Posted December 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Pretty much every hotel and motel in Bellevue is good, because so many people come to visit Microsoft. If you can convince someone else to come with you, hotel costs shouldn't be too bad. If you don't find anyone else, let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll let you know how my house hunting goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romes Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Will people be there the evening before the event? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godswearhats Posted December 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 I'll be there setting things up I think. The place is open until midnight the night before, so anyone traveling can drop in and see the venue, meet other nerds, grab a beer etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jvesal Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 Will people be there the evening before the event? I'll be driving down from Vancouver and would love some pickup games the night before. Anyone who wants to smash hobby And beers let me know. Also anyone coming in from out of town who is looking to split accom or just make it cheaper for themselves let me know! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swan-of-War Posted December 18, 2014 Report Share Posted December 18, 2014 I agree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godswearhats Posted December 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Just a heads up - I've extended the list deadline to Dec 31st, given the new release of Swedish comp (v1.15.0). Also, if you are planning on going but haven't bought your ticket, please do so ASAP so I can figure out how many tables will be needed on the day :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romes Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 I'm definitely in for Friday night. We'll probably head over before rush hour and be there around 4 PM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
