one of the best ideas I have seen for the use of 'our games' ... I applaud your effort and would love to join in - of course I am 'distance disadvantaged' so can't - good luck to all of you.

how about spreading this idea out to 'everywhere' folks? I will be a single player with a single box but if you run it I am in ... Christmas is coming up, times are tough all over and we can just do this like any other tourney - money can be sent ... so pick a charity - stay as local as you can with and open it to everyone for a donation ... prize will be bragging rights and perhaps the donation in th winners name [with a BT add-on] ???

These local events have been run for about the last 10 or so years here in Calgary. Always a quality event. Toys donated to the kids at the Childrens Hospital so who can argue with that.

Would be possibly unfair to include cross border folks as 1 of the game included is the 1:30 MTN Super Saturday Trivia, a Canada only game as far as I know, it's hour long and a perfect is 32,000.

understood Dr ... I was more asking if anyone in the 'lower territories' would be interested in doing such a tourney with possible entries coming from out of their communities - via the magic-blue-box ... I will do a thread - thanks for the idea no matter 'who' es it was

Unhappy Sorry we missed it

I haven't been paying as much attention to this site lately. Probably could have gotten 2 teams together again. Again, very sorry. How did it go anyways? I hope a good time was had by all. We sure enjoyed the one we went to.
