This my 1,000th post. I've been thinking what to put for a few days. I figure this thread is best suited for this message because I've had such a fun time hosting tournaments with all of you.
Thanks first off to my son, Wyatt V2, for getting me hooked on this competitive hobby. Then thanks to DaWretched-One for being here when I first began. If it wasnt for him I dont know if I would have ever become a host. Thanks to all the Committee Members and fellow hosts of the WBO who helped guide me with all the intricacies that helped me. Then thanks to all of you bladers who show up at my events and make it a fun time for all. We are all competitive but we all have great attitudes and don't take it to seriously. We have never had any major quarreling about a battle even if their were indifferences about the way it went and the outcome. Thanks guys for this it truely has been fun.
Ok now on a note about our future, Lansing's event is in jeopardy of being cancelled, we cant get indoors in Lansing. None of the facilities Libraten or I have contacted were all that excited to have us at all. We still plan on having it but we need people to let me know what works I sent a PM to everybody on the list and have gotten two replies that contradict each other... The only place near there we can get indoors is Warrior 3 in Wayne though Im not sure when we could get there again, that is another option i didnt include because I would like to keep it closer to Lansing, but Lansing seems dead.
Then Next month I'm trying to plan a Grand Rapids area tournament. I can get an awesome indoor site in Holland but not GR, I sent a PM to our GR bladers and got one response...
If you didnt realize I need communication from you to continue having tournaments. Please respond to this thread the tournament threads and any PM regarding tournaments. Or they will end.
We had an epic year last year lets do it even better this year. I plan on adding Zero-G Format along with Plastic series and HMS tournaments. Thanks for making this past year fun guys, lets do it again.
