RISK tourney 2010 is ON!
Mark December 5th 2010 on your calendar. Our second RISK tourney is going to be bigger and better. The tourney is blowing up on twitter right now. Thank you everyone for your input & support. Together we will fight to conquer poverty this Christmas season.
We’ve been chatting with those key people about running RISK TOURNEY again. Last year (2009) was such a well received event – we agreed; RISK TOURNEY had to happen again.
Our very first Support Letters were sent out tonight… and a future post will tell us exactly which businesses have gotten behind the game for good concept again for 2010. Thanks everyone, keep December 5th reserved on your calendar for #RISKtourney2010
RISK TOURNEY 09! was a smashing success. 4 table winners from the morning session vied for the title; Grand Champion (bragging rights & $200 bones richer). Mid afternoon, local gamer Craig Rice won his second game of the day. Congratulations to Craig, & all other winners… pics to be posted shortly!
The Cut off has passed for Early Bird Prizes. All those who registered up to midnight last night will be in the draw. Winners will be announced at RISK TOURNEY 09! This Saturday.
A great boost for the Tourney; both the Medicine Hat Shopper & the Medicine Hat News ran articles supporting our RISK TOURNEY! Much thanks for that coverage. Print media has stepped up, the web has stepped up, it’s time for the radio media to give RISK TOURNEY 09! some much appreciated attention. The Tourney is next Saturday – December 5th, 2009. Starting to get excited 
Here is the link for the manual we will be referring to for the risk tournament. It would be a good idea to study up before the big day. It has been suggested that we play “Capital Risk” to encourage shorter play. The “Capital Risk” variation has players choose a capital city, conquer 3 capital cities to win the game. What do you think?
Were open to some discussion on modifying the rules for better use on the tournament day. Please discuss in the comments below!
Big thanks to the gang at Fallcon for using their soapbox to promote our RISK TOURNEY 09 here in Medicine Hat. For those of us who travel to Calgary religiously every year for their event, you know that a shout out from them for our humble little tourney is big stuff. big stuff indeed. (kudos to @CaughttheBug (twitter name) for making contact on our behalf)
Vaughn over at local Medicine Hat website Medicinehatmedia.com has responded to our RISK TOURNEY Press Release with an article promoting & supporting our efforts to a) Play some Risk & b) raise awareness and support for the Medicine Hat Santa Claus Fund.
