Please note that the location for this month's tournament is in Washington, DC - not Silver Spring.
The Marriott Wardman Park Hotel is located about 100 yards west of Connecticut Avenue on Woodley Road. Parking in the surrounding neighborhoods can sometimes be challenging due to the close proximity of the National Zoo, so please plan to either arrive early to find free parking, arrive whenever and pay for parking, or take the DC Metro Red Line to the Woodley Park / National Zoo station and a very short walk to the hotel.

This month, I may be able to make it and I look forward to hopefully seeing all most of your familiar faces!
On a side note, the Meta-Ranking list-thingy looks really great! I could try and make a VA Meta-game sort of list for anyone who wants a solely MD bladers on their list, though. The VA list would be pretty short, LOL.
I think putting together a VA metagame list is a good idea, and as a side benefit we might actually find out which of the 25 bladers claiming to be VA #1 is actually right! ;p
As far as our local metagame list is concerned, I still think that due to the fact that we have bladers from the tri-state area who compete here that it should be kept inclusive of those who are in the area. That being said, I think we also have the ability to do a State-specific list for all three areas (MD, DC, VA).
And if you think the VA list is short, wait till you see the DC list! It might just be me... LOL
BOT, I really doubt I could use Pegasis here as effectively as I did during the SSS... I might have to whip out an R2F if I actually end up making it to this month's event. xD
Beware of my MF Dark Leone D125R2F, it's fast!
@ლ(ಠ益ಠლ): I agree about getting the threads up, but wanted to see what our local community thought about what it should look like before setting up the thread.
Well, time to start on the rankings list... *Away*
EDIT: I'm back; you may now consult the signature.
It's how well you use it, and how well you know how to counter it, that matters.
My goal for this tounement is to get 3rd place or higher.
