Hello everyone, finally back from being underway. It seems some things changed while I was gone. I am planning on going and I will play or not as ya'll need me, but I am wondering how it will be effected by the PSP/NPPL split.

I am going to go way out on a limb and say that I have some reservations with the PSP and playing in one of their events. I would rather support the NPPL.

MGO has not been an NPPL/PSP event in the past. Don't know that it will be this year either...

OK, just ot confirm, I'm going (with or without the little woman) and I'm driving. I have reservations at the Best western near the alario center (listed on the website) for Wed - Sat night, although I'm not leaving until Th night. I do plan to play at whatever level we enter, I really don't care, I'm just looking forward to playing some hard/fun ball!

I just don't think much has changed. The dates at the top of the page are the new ones for next year. Some of the vendor info has changed, too.

Is the registration link active?

As I stated... I'll be there. I was attempting to coordinate this earlier but It's going nowhere fast.

[hardr0ck68]

i dont think its going nowhere, i think were headin in the right direction, but it sure isnt fast

First we need a captain, right now not so much for the feild stuff but as for the preping to go....who would like this privliage?

What needs to be done
1: a captain, or someone in a leadership role to steer this beast before we end up marrooned in new orleans woundering why were not on the feilds

2: a decided, set team for the agreed apon devision (novice i belive)

3: a cheak list of reservations dates and times, we need to get the wole team to the feild on the right days

4: confirmed registration for the AO team (need a name also to register under)

now i am not tryin to take the captain role mostly because i am not intersted in it, i just like to play. if no one else steps up i will ask the known orginizers if they will lend a hand (Riotz, cledford, or someone...) but its better someone on the team steps up and takes it... it dosent matter much to me who. I am also sujesting a new thread for this without the clutter....a link to the new thread, thread opens with the list of who deffinate, whos maybe and a list for a "B team" if the interest is there from other AOers. sound like a good idea?? anyone??

[jeffremiller]

I had sort of volunteered for the organizer role when I posted this. Not a big deal to me... I'll continue to do it if no one else speaks up.

I've been waiting for registration details... haven't seen any yet. Several of us have reservations and flights booked.

A new thread would be a wonderful Idea. I was sorta waiting to get confirmations from a couple of others before going that next step.

Might want ot see if JeffreMiller wants to play on the novice team. I don't really want to sift through 3 pages of posts, but since he started the thread, he gets 1st pick of team, or so I would think...

I can take the role of captain, although I have little to no tourney experience, I would feel a little green about this, but I'll do it if none of the more "experienced" guys/gals want to...

Let's get some team info together. I'll be happy to take on Captain duties for the team I play on (I really don't want to be in charge of TWO teams ). If we can get a team together, and list a few alternates incase some have to drop, that would be great.

If you're interested in playing MGO, post here what level you'd be willing to play. We'll arrange teams that way...
