I think I'm in Chester for the 25th, in which case I'd love to get involved. Round-robin league sounds like a perfect idea.

Just thinking about timing:
A round robin for 10.
Each match-up: best out of three. We allow say 30 mins for ea. x 10 so around five hours.
Drafting say 30-60 mins
So approximately six hours needed in total.
Hard finish time at 10.30pm (metagaia's train).
Therefore need to start at 4.30.
All this is just me 'guesstimating' loosely based on the previous tournaments.
Does this all seem reasonable/do-able? _________________ Mass Effect 3 ending: WTF was that???

If we're aiming to do this in one evening, I'd strongly reccomend that we don't have all players play each other.
Whenever I've booster drafted at an official friday night event this has never happened.
3 rounds, randomly drawn, 3 points for a 2-0, 2 points for a 2-1, highest 4 scores go into a knockout.

sounds like a good idea, best of both worlds.
Thanks to Tess offering to babysit for us on the day, both shell and I will be able to come (barring any emergencies).

I'm fine with the FNM format.
So re-doing the timing thing:
So 3 random robin rounds 3x 30 mins.
Knockout for 4, i.e. 2 matches 2x 30 mins.
Drafting 30-60 mins
3.5 hours.
Allow some 'padding' time: start at 6.30?
