I have received the Summer Tournament Kit for X-Wing.
Let's schedule a little sometthing-something and use the kit. Do one of you fine folks want to take point on that in regards to scheduling and running the event?

[RobSven]

I can run something for us.  How's an escalation tournament sound?

[ChadBoudreau]

That sounds great! What date did you have in mind?

[RobSven]

I think I'll do a poll here and on the Facebook group and see what works best for people.  I'd say we would be looking at August 20, 27 or sept 10 as the best options. Do any of those dates not work for Comic Readers?  And also, do you want me to set an entry cost to cover the kit?

Good day,

  I showed up for this event this evening; however, according to ComicReaders, I was the only one to arrive for this event today. Is there a way to be notified of this for future events if no one else may attend? Also, is this going to occur again in September or a different game? Thanks.

[ChadBoudreau]

This is a drop-in night so attendance varies. It sounds like August attendance was low to nil so perhaps interest and a availability is waning. What say the group? Anyone coming out in September?

[RobSven]

I'm hoping to make more of these again after Summer's over ... End of September ish.  A lot of us post in the xwing Regina Facebook group prior to going to see if anyone else is able to make it out before heading down.

I believe the above link will take you to the Facebook group mentioned by RobSven.

I would like to point out that the Facebook group is a closed group with 26 current members. SaskGames is a public forum with (as of the end of 2015) 170,000+ page views a month and 954 registered users. I can appreciate the ease of Facebook groups but please do not discredit the value of posting on this forum for X-Wing at ComicReaders Downtown. If I'm a new or casual player and see no activity on this forum about X-Wing then I might not realize there is, in fact, an active community of players in Regina. This is one of the reasons why I post events on SaskGames and Facebook groups.

Keep that in mind for the upcoming Escalation Tournament, too. I know there are people coming, but only two people have posted on the SaskGames thread.
