We’re currently on round one of the Nova Open VA Primaries event here at FTW Games (the home of Spikey Bits).
I’ll be posting up standings and pictures from the event all day on our Facebook, and Twitter.
We have 28 players spread out over tables here in the store, and next door at the pool hall. Beerhammer anyone?!!
Be sure to checkout our all day coverage of this awesome event.
We will open up registration to the wait list at 10:30 AM that day.
FTW Games will be hosting the “Virginia Primaries” an 40K Invitational Qualifier for the Nova Open on Saturday May 19th at 10am.
If we get 32 players the top two players will qualify for two spots at the Nova Open Invitational in Aug 30-Sept 2, 2012 (Labor Day weekend) to play for I think a cash prize of some sort…oh $1000…. for Best General and Best Overall respectively? Seems good!
For our event- there are no sports, comp or painting score! All you have to do to take home overall is WIN WIN WIN! So bring down your painted or unpainted, and get stuck in!
But please mind your manners, any shenanigans will be dealt with severely.
