Future skull of thrones tournament and war-games con

So it looks like the tournament series finale will be held in memphis from now on instead of Vegas. Gw will also be allowing anyone to buy entry with Indy tournament winners still gaining free entry. The first is in October 6-7 of 2012. Finals right in our own backyard!

Wargamescon this year is in Austin. July 7 through 10.

I can't go to Vegas and to Austin both, but the more I look into my 'Vegas invite' the more it looks like the only thing really paid for is tourney entry. No one I speak to at gw can tell me if lodging and food is included as I was lead to initially believe

So hogs, if Vegas is gonna cost $400 for flight, then $400+ for room for two nights, plus food, I won't be attending.... If that's the case (and it looks that way), who's up for hitting bolscon again? Even if I do go to Vegas some one needs to return to Austin, right?

I'd go to Austin. And Memphis is the worst city in the world, so BOO.

I'm with WildEyed on the Vegas trip. I really want to go, but I'll have a 3 week old baby at the time of the tournament, and dropping a couple of hundred on top of the flight just isn't in the cards. I think my wife might, understandably, beat me mercilessly.

July would definitely work better, and I've got a buddy who's supposed to move to Austin soon.

Ok definately going to austin this year.

Depending on when it falls this year, I maybe going but I am already hitting adepticon and gencon this year so we will see.
