Hi all!
On another thread, the idea of trying to get some of the folks that live in the Northeast United States together for a few games 1 full day (or maybe 2) was floated. No, let's no jump to conclusions: nothing has been scheduled. there's no rush to schedule it. The simple question is: would there be any interest and availability to rendevous in NYC for a day or weekend of games in early 2019.
For the DC, PA, MA, upstate NY (I'm looking at you Rochester and Buffalo) and CT, folks mainly. Leave a comment below if you'd be open to it!

Very interested. If I'm driving more than two hours, I would prefer a 2 day thing.

Love the NYC. Would dig it! A 3rd from the ROC City. I'm interested.
Would do. Would prefer a 2 day overnight, i.e. --Start at 9:30 AM on day 1, with 3 games (going til 7:00 PM) --Start at 8:00 AM on day 2, with 2 games (done by 2:00 PM or so)

Location-wise: NYC is a bit limited. The tables in Manhattan are cramped. Brooklyn has 2 places - Brookltn Strategiest and the Carcosa Club. The latter I haven't visited yet. The former can get busy on the weekend.
In NJ, I've been to Maplewood Hobby which apparently has sa full floor for tournaments (though I didn't actually see this 2nd floor), and Mythicos which has had a good amount of tournaments.
Would there be a preference re: being near the city, but tournament location might be a bit cramped, or further from the city, but more space?

Come to Rochester, we’ve got space...also garbage plates.

Let’s do it in November. I can host a reception in my game basement on Friday night. On Saturday and Sunday we can use venue space at DaBoyz.

This is a perfect idea. I know that Gary would warmly welcome us and even throw some support our way. Hotels are cheaper and there is food to be had everywhere. Let’s do it in November. I can host a reception in my game basement on Friday night. On Saturday and Sunday we can use venue space at DaBoyz.

Guys would love to have you guys join us. Da Boyz is starting to push the limits of space in our current hotel for 2019 (we've got a tentative hold on November 8-10 2019) I can probably get six tables for you guys but will need to check with the 40K guys as it's space that's currently penciled in for their growth.

I think november is a great main tournament idea and time. I'd still like to see about putting together a smaller get-together for Feb-March-April. That way, maybe we have 2 yearly tournament. DaBoyz/November in rochester being the main one, and a smaller one potentially for Spring.
