October 2013 RPG meet and Greet | ||
RPG Meet and Greet @ GOBSunday, Nov 3rdGOB Retail is planning a new type of event for role-players. It is a meet and greet to help connect players together with game masters. The idea is this:
1) Game Masters Sign Up 2) Game Masters will come in and have the opportunity to showcase the game and all aspects of the game, world, setting, etc that they would like to run. It will be up to each Game Master on what details of the game system and/or world setting they would like to present to potential players. We recommend, at the least, that each Game Master bring the core rules and any other vital parts of the game they are trying to recruit players for. 3) Players can show up between 1pm and 4pm on Sunday, November 3rd to talk with and see what types of games and game groups each game master is looking to establish. If you are Game Masters and Looking to recruit players, Come in and Sign up with us today. Let us know what game system you are recruiting for and submit a short sentence or two about the campaign/setting you wish to run.

Warmachine Machinations: Equilibrium LeagueStart Saturday, October 26th at 2 PM.League run through Wednesday, November 27th The concluding event will be Saturday, December 7th Detail is below :- Escalating Point Cap: For those of you familiar with previous GoB League seasons, we are bringing back the Escalating Point Cap. For those unfamiliar with this, each week will have a maximum point size for any given match for all players. League games are NOT required to be played at the maximum size; players are allowed to play at the point cap or smaller games. Team games have a different point cap which is based on per player and NOT per team. Here is the schedule for the point cap:
October 26th-Nov 1st: 25 points; 15 points per player (team games) Unbound games are an exception to the above point caps. Every player may partake in 1 solo Unbound game (one-on-one) and 1 team Unbound game each week without restriction to the point cap. Ending Event: the top eight participants from the league will be invited to partake in a 35 point Steamroller Tournament on December 7th to wrap up this season's league. No reinforcements or specialists. Any bonds between warlocks/warcasters from the season will be maintained, even if the warbeast/warjack is destroyed during the tournament. No new bonds will be formed during the tournament. Lastly, there will be regions for each round; although many of the results may be ignored due to the nature of their rules. Dice start rolling at 12:30pm. Here is the link from Privateer Press for the Machinations League rules as well as the specifics for Machinations: Equilibrium: http://privateerpress.com/organized-play/leagues/equilibrium As a reminder, players are free to choose which Regions and which Scenarios you wish to play so long as your opponent agrees. If you are having a difficult time choosing a Region/Scenario, I recommend Region 11 (or 12) and either the Incursion or Close Quarters scenarios. The Regions do not have any special rules attached and both scenarios only utilize flags without too much in terms of rules attached. Entry Fee: $8; minimum of 5 participants, maximum of 16 Prize Support: will be based on the number of participants and availability of League Kits/Reinforcement Kits |

GOB Retail Magic League: Fall 2013Hi Everyone, Its about that time to kick off the next Magic the Gathering league here at GOB Retail. We'll be doing things a fair bit differently this time, simplifying things some in the process.
League Start Time: Wed, October 23rd While it is still our goal for our leagues to be both casual and very accessible to everyone, we are moving away from a purely free event and charging $2 for league entry. This is a 1 time fee and is good for the entire league season.
Format:
Noble (all commons, except 4 uncommon + 1 rare/Mythic as the noble) With the new league format, players will play matches against other league players only against the same deck format. So, Standard vs Standard, Modern vs Modern, etc. Matches will be the best 2 out of 3 games.
Matches and Scoring:
We will be posting a league poster score sheet in the gaming room. Whenever a match is played, the winner will post a win on the score sheet and the losing player initials.
Winning the League:
League Ending Tournament:
