Re: The GECQ 2012
Richtig, dürften immer noch 25% (minium 5 Spieler = die Finalisten) sein.
"Nur" die Finalisten sind bei den nationalen Meisterschaft qualifiziert.

Luck is not a factor.
Hope is not a strategy.

Re: The GECQ 2012
Danke für die Hinweise (ist letztes Jahr keinem aufgefallen ^^), die Turnierankündigung wurde also wahrgenommen UND gelesen!
Ich habe außerdem den Hinweis darauf bekommen, dass das mit der abgebildeten Karte etwas "frickelig" ist ... Lieber wieder löschen und auf Anfrage per E-Mail verschicken?

Re: The GECQ 2012
Für alle, die schon am Freitag anreisen: Von Freitag auf Samstag ist auf dem Karolinenplatz am Landesmuseum (sehr zentral) grosser Nachtflohmarkt. Wer also auf wenig schlaf, sinnloses feilschen um wertlosen Tand und anderen Plunder steht, sollte sich das nicht entgehen lassen. Professionelle Händler sind ausdrücklich unerwünscht. Die Stimmung ist meistens recht gut (je später je besser) und bei gutem Wetter erstreckt sich die Party bis in den angrenzenden Herrngarten-Park.

Re: The GECQ 2012
Und hier noch der Hinweis für die Autofahrer:
Ecke Hügelstraße/Heidelberger Straße gibt es einen großen Parkplatz (Zufahrt über Hügelstraße). Dieser gleicht zwar einer Kraterlandschaft (sehr vorsichtig fahren!), hat aber dafür den riesigen Vorteil, kostenlos zu sein und zugleich nur ca. 10 Geh-Minuten vom Spielort entfernt zu sein.
Und noch eine Bitte an alle:
Seid pünktlich!
Anmeldung ist von 10:00 bis 10:45 Uhr, Turnierbeginn ist 11:00 Uhr.
