    Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    It was confirmed today

    BattleGroundSanDiego will be hosting the Tanaris Realm Championship on November 14th and 15th!!!

    The location will be

    The Mission Valley Resort.
    875 Hotel Circle South
    San Diego, Ca 92108

    I will be posting more information soon including hotel information and side events.

    Thanks to everyone for the patience, I spoke with and visited 14 different locations regarding this event over the last few weeks and it has taken a great deal of my off work time.  As such, I have not had a chance to update the website.  That is my next priority as is updating the deck lists from the last event.

    Get yer decks ready for one hell of an event!!!

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    The Tucson crew has a room reserved and 2 car loads at least (6-8) that will be coming up to give it a go! Thanks for working to get the location, it's been frustrating on this end (and I'm sure on your's as well) but the place looks great.

    On a side note you might want to holler at Sky High Comics, (it is the one in San Marcos right?), I called up there yesterday to confirm the LCQ and the guy I talked to and the guy he checked with didn't know about the LCQ.

    The TW crew has to hit the LCQ more than likely to get the last 2 pts for a couple of our folks and then we'll see you all at the main event.

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    Have you actually seen any information on LCQs posted? I doubt that they are RQs and give points. I would think it's more like 'Top 4 get qualified'. If you have info about it, please post it.

    Cheers.

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    Actually Lanky I haven't seen anything, but it never occured to me that now that we are using a pt system that they would change it up quite that drastically.... Guess we need some word on that as that will definitely sway some of the folks from here..... Thanks for bringing that up. Gwon? Roshen? Javier? Help?

    LankyBrit:
    If you have info about it, please post it.

    As you wish!

    Realm Championships is an invitation only tournament, and you can only be invited through accumulating enough points through Realm Qualifiers that took place in that Realm.

    LCQs will award Realm Points, just like any other qualifier has in the season. These points count towards qualifying to play in the Championship, and Realm Conqueror.

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    Thanks Roshen.

    Then I have a suggestion. You should not call them Last Chance Qualifiers at all. You should call them Final Realm Qualifiers or something.

    That is, there will be a Final Realm Qualifier at xxxxxx......etc.

    EDIT: Actually, scratch that. They presumably don't count toward Realm Conq, and arene't open to people who have already qualified, so giving them some other name is probably fine.

    Cheers.

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    Ok, to add, I just got off the phone with Customer service (hopefully they have the info we need, right?) and the gentleman I spoke to said that they were told that it would still be on the pt system. That was the word that they had, so we go with that for now..... good catch though Lanky

    Edit: But Roshen trounces me in gettign the info out, way to go Ry! Seriously though, thanks for the clarification.

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    Mozu: I think you were the person who called Sky High literally 5 minutes before I came in to talk about the Last Chance Qualifier with the store owner. The guy you talked to (Darren) had a laugh at my timing. :)

    Still working out some final details but everything should be set up in a day or two.

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    That sounds about right! I had a feeling it might be something like that. Now if only I had called a few minutes later I could have asked while you were doing your thing.  ^_^ I appreciate the info when you get it, as I said a few of us might still need those final pts...

    The insanity that is Tucson WOW is headed that way.......

    To be fair, I'm not sure if Mozu is properly expressing what this means for California.

    For example, in Tucson this is how they decide who goes first:



    Is Tanaris prepared for Realm Championships?

    Well, the filter at work is blocking your image Ry, so I'll wait till I get home to really get an idea what you put in there. =)

    Just remember that most of the Tucson crew are gov't trained killers! (or USAF trained wrench turners/desk sitters, either way...) legally insane is a label that fits most of us too....  See all of you there.  ^_^

    Re: Tanaris Realm Championship Comes to San Diego!!!

    It will be good to meet you too man. Don't worry about us though, after we drive to an outside event our on call Doc hits us up with the prescribed trancs! At that point the drool and babbling is about as bad as it gets.... I think. ^_^

    And to Ry, no fair pulling unused pics out man! I'll have to get with Josh and see if he still has the original of that one, good stuff.....
