Ratings and Registrations

Conscripts and fellow travelers,

On behalf of the Central Committee, I am pleased to report that a team of our best scientists and engineers has completed their work and successfully uploaded game results from both tournaments in 2021 and 2022 to the player ratings website, ASL Ratings.

And a gentle reminder — time to take advantage of your chance to register early for this year’s tournament is running out! Several of you have wisely, and patriotically, already registered. Take a look at the early registration page for details.

Probieda!

It’s Official!

After considerable discussion and negotiations with the hotel, we are using the same location in 2023 as we did in 2022, the Tysons Corner Marriott at 1960-A Chain Bridge Rd in McLean VA 22102!

We are confirmed for the dates Friday July 7, 2023, to Sunday July 9, 2023. Mark your calendars now! Those of you who like plan ahead can even book your room now using our special group rate of $89/night. Last day to book at this rate is Wednesday, June 7, 2023. See you there!

Ten Days Away!

Conscripts,

We are only 10 days away from the HUMAN WAVE, and Conscripts everywhere are anxiously rubbing their dice together in anticipation. Interest has been so high we’ve had to get some extra space to accommodate the new players, so there will be a lot of gaming going on!

The Logistics Committee has recently confirmed the game room layout with the hotel, see the floorplan.

Significantly we have finalized the Starter Kit scenario list. See the Scenario List page for details.

Probieda!

Situation Report

Friends, Romans, Conscripts and Fellow Travelers,

On behalf of the Planning Committee, I humbly submit the following report. By the numbers:

  • 25 registered players as of today (which means five slots remaining!)
    Of the 25 players:
  • Eight self-report as “Advanced” (meaning they win more than they lose).
  • Eleven self-report as “Intermediate” (meaning they win as much as they lose).
  • Five want to play Starter Kit
    … and naturally there’s always ‘that guy’ who didn’t complete the registration correctly, so we don’t know his rating.
    Furthermore:
  • Five players are traveling from outside the Baltimore/DC area to play and will be staying at the hotel.
  • Eight dice glasses sold.
  • Five weeks before the Tournament!
