Inaugural Asian Championship

 
I would like to announce the first ever Asia Championships to be held in Singapore this November.

Qualification requirements for the Championship will be the same as those for the Australian Nationals. Which means the top 50% of players (up to a maximum of 10 players) in each constructed Championship Qualifying (including "Last Chance Qualifier") events qualify.

Last Chance Qualifiers: Asian CHampionship
Date: 20th November 2010
Location: No. 3 Ruby Lane, Singapore 328278
Entry Fee: SGD$20
Format: V:EKN Constructed, 3 round + final table (2 hours per round + 2.5 hour table)

Asian Championship
Date: 21st November 2010
Location: No. 3 Ruby Lane, Singapore 328278
Entry Fee: SGD$20
Format: V:EKN Constructed, 3 round + final table (2 hours per round + 2.5 hour table)

Registration starts at 9.30am on the respective days.
We are aiming to start both events by 10am on both days.
Prizes will be provided for both events.

For our overseas friends who are seeking accommodations, here is the link to a list of hotels: http://hotels.online.com.sg/ (select Little India or Near City Central from the right-hand-side menu for nearby accommodations). Hotels along Serangoon Road are the nearest to the event location, but Singapore is small enough that you can get anywhere within an hour.

Feel free to contact me at zhengyyz *dash* mail *at* yahoo *dot* com *dot* sg if you have any questions, or if you wish to register in advance.

Hope to see you all there!
 

Community Card Pool Event

 
Hey guys/gals,

There will be a Community Card Pool Event this Saturday (22nd May 2010) at Paradigm Infinitum (Orchard Road Store) from 5pm - 7pm (onwards). Please let me know if you wish to come for the event but are unable to arrive by 5pm, and we can work something out.

There will be impromptu games and prizes to be won! Ready your falcon's eyes and ears of the hare for announcements during the event.

Also, our new Archon will present the boring stuff (rules and regulations) for the Community Card Pool during the event.

Walk-in registration is $3 per participant for existing members (this includes membership renewal fee) and $8 for anyone who wishes to sign up for access to the community card pool.

Register with me by Friday (21st May 2010) and pay only $2 for membership renewal or $5 for a new membership. All fees for pre-registration must be paid to either Bann or me by Friday to qualify for the discount.

Anyone who is unable to come for the event can renew their membership anytime for $5 or become a member for $10.

See you there!
