Good morning everyone! I'm very excited to be making my second pilgrimage to GenCon for my first World Championship appearance. It's a huge treat to have the chance to play alongside so many talented people as well as volunteer for the Committee.

I'm heading out the door in just a few minutes to head for the airport but I wanted to get this thread started first. I'll do my best to post semi-regular updates on this thread for players that aren't able to attend Worlds this year - starting with the WCT event tonight and extending to both 1E and 2E Days 1 and 2, and finishing up with Tribbles Worlds on Sunday. Hopefully others will keep an eye on this thread and help me keep you up to date in the event I am otherwise occupied (playing in other events, judging, etc.)

Meanwhile, for those that are going, I'm looking forward to seeing everyone again as well as meeting some new faces! I should be arriving at the JW between 2:30 and 3 pm and will be at Granite City for tonight's side events. If anyone wants to contact me before then (or is looking to hang out during the downtime) you can text me at 321-795-6874.

Good luck to everyone, and happy gaming!

Breaking results direct from Indy!

I just finished marking 20 assignments for one of the classes that I teach. Ooh, the excitement! ;-)

(luckily I planned it better this year, so unlike last year I don't have 40 final projects and 40 final exams to be marked this weekend ;-) )

Not too bad. Class average was about 85%. with 6 people going undefeated. ;-)

Man, you must be way nicer than me. My last class got an average of 71.3% on their finals with a top grade of 92%.
