Worlds 2019 Informations #3 - Four days of Trek Insanity

by Julius Melhardt, European OP Coordinator

5th March 2019

My dear friends!

Only five months to go!!!

The Austrian player group proudly presents the first preliminary schedule for Worlds 2019 in Vienna.

We'll try to make tournaments for everyone, if you're a First or Second Edition (or Tribbles) purist, if you play all the fantastic games, if you just want to have a good time with some friends or even if you just want to have one or two drinks.

I will sort this preliminary schedule by day and starting time (not by the played edition) and please acknowledge that all these tournaments will be posted on the site later this month.

 

Thursday, August 8th 2019

• 10:30 am: "Best of Both Worlds" - The first highlight will be a very special and unique tournament. You will have to play BOTH 1E and 2E against the same opponent in a timeframe of 2:30 hours. We've already chosen the special rules that will occur in this event - be sure that I will inform you shortly about the specific terms on that one (probably with a special Informations #3.5...). This event will be played in 3 rounds Swiss (so in fact 6 rounds - 3 1E and 3 2E rounds).

• 10:30 am: 1E Sealed - 3 rounds Swiss

• 10:30 am: 2E Infinite Diversity Draft - 3 rounds Swiss

• 02:30 pm: 2E "Hall of Fame" Constructed - 4 rounds Swiss

• 04:00 pm: 1E Virtual OTF Constructed - 3 rounds Swiss

• 08:30 pm: 2E Biermeister - 3 rounds Swiss and a lot of Austrian beer

• 10:00 am: 2E Constructed Standard - Worlds 2019 Day 1 - 7 rounds Swiss

• 10:00 am: 1E Reflections Sealed - 1 sealed box containing 30 boosters of Reflections for each participant (and of course the Starter Deck II fixed cards) to build a deck with - definitely NO DRAFTING - if you have one of those sealed boxes stored at your home, just bring it along or contact me, I'll gladly buy it from you, just to make this great thing happen in Vienna one more time... - 3 rounds Swiss

• 04:00 pm: 1E Aberdeen Anarchy - as I have given the Anarchy Master complete control about this event, I have no clue what, how, why, in which universe or timeline this happens - I only know for sure it will happen at JAZZLAND (and hopefully after that, JAZZLAND will continue to exist...) - ??????? rounds, beers, naked people, sober people, Klingon Shirefolk Jedi-Sith Muggles - I have no idea - probably some Scottish

• 08:30 pm: 2E Excelsior Constructed - 3 rounds Swiss

• 08:30 pm: 1E OTF Constructed - Worlds 2019 Day 2 - depending on the number of players attending Day 1 we'll have a Top 4 or Top 8 Single Elimination bracket (including the opportunity to play the Final on Sunday if necessary evil occurs...)

 

Sunday, August 11th 2019

• 09:00 am: 2E Constructed Standard - Worlds 2019 Day 2 - Double Elimination Top 8 of Day 1

• 09:00 am: 1E Pre-Release or Release Sealed - 3 rounds Swiss

• 06:30 pm: 2E Infinite Diversity Draft - 3 rounds Swiss

• 06:30 pm: 1E Sealed - 3 rounds Swiss

• Alternate Universe: if you have enough of STCCG after this schedule we will gladly have some learning groups for the terrific board game "Terraforming Mars" or some other stuff I'll bring along...

 

We have not prescheduled any Tribbles Side events, whenever you find at least three other fur-lovers who would like to play a tournament (with or without any Troubles), just come to the main judge, tell him about your Furry-Tale and start breeding.

We start all our tournament days a little bit later than you might be used to. This is because we've seen in all Vienna's major events in the past that it is much easier to play longer than to get up early. The venue will be closed when WE decide to, so we have all the time in the Worlds including postponing some of the events a little bit to allow as much players to attend as possible...

I will give you more detailed informations about the "special" tournaments in the Informations #3.5 as well.

 

See you all in five months !!! LLAP
