No sign-ups yet. This does not bode well.

What's the problem?
Don't like the concept?
Entry fee too high?
Don't like the IFL sponsorship?
Bad timing?
Don't trust me to come up with a really cool series of scenarios?

Honestly, if I don't get at least a half dozen people signed up by the end of the weekend, I' should just cancel. I'd love to know why this is not getting any traction, though...

Not really interested in playing with someone else's toys. Just a personal thing.

I'm game, just not sure of my schedule for that week yet.

As for others, I am guessing that many do not have extra armies for others to play. I think I would be real hesitant to allow others to push my only army accidents happen especially if they are nicely painted (I have extra of course so im not in this category)

There were many expressions of interest both on this board and the IFL one, but I hadn't asked for confirmations before now. Consider yourself the first verified sign-up.

I was up for it but I was told by the wife that it is a scheduling conflict for me. Crying or Very sad

I have many unpainted models for people to play with, so if it happens to get moved to a day in which I can be a participant, then I'll be there. Sorry.

It's on a bad day for me as well. Plus, my Ogres aren't finished yet. Should be done after the Colonial, though.

If it was moved into April I could definitely do it.

Looking like a postponement until summer, then. Just as well, since I need to paint for Colonial.

I'm not cancelling, because my ideas are just too cool to abandon like that.

It's a really good idea and one I might steal for a future 40k tournament.
