Warhammer 10e 1k Tourney with Matt - Wednesday 20th of September 8:30am - 4:30am
  • Matt summary
    • Cons:
      • A bigger room would be nicer but for 8 people what we had worked (and is better than putting people in different rooms)
      • The trestle table booking being weird and resorting to UCC worked out but led to small delay and not completely optimal
      • Tickets covered far less than what I anticipated and basically everyone seemed in agreement that with the quality of the event a slight increase is justified enough
      • Timing was a bit of a fun one towards the end but nothing drastic?
    • Pros:
      • Everyone had a great time
      • Terrain and boards and all the provided things were great and reusable (and can be improved upon)
      • Honestly I don't know what else to say it was honestly just really good like what I said earlier are the only bad things the good parts was literally everything else
      • I had some engraved medals for top three which were incredibly well received (not that expensive at all in case you're thinking that's why I said it's expensive)
      • I'll just edit if I think of anything else but that's vaguely how it went I have photos of most of the day except at the end which is arguably most important lmao
  • Event feedback form here
    • There is a section for people who could not attend as well, so fill it out if you wanted to go but couldn't!
  • Matt has also suggested that we could do another one combined with Curtin Tabletop Gaming Club
    • Feedback: Cool idea, maybe have another one here first just to see how many people are actually interested in it before expanding out.
    • Booking the ezone rooms we want is hard because resource booker is not working very well atm
    • Will be easier to run after exams
