Plus its awesome to play some Tecmo with some cool ass people. Knobbe and duecel00se 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noonan Posted February 27, 2016 Author Share Posted February 27, 2016 We will have trophies to our top finishers. The creativity committee of Iowa Tecmo 3 is working on that now. I think participants (including myself) will be surprised on how many people will be attending this tournament. We are shaking the trees here in Des Moines/Iowa and already seeing unknown talent show interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is right up against a family trip to Wisconsin Dells. Details aren't ironed out yet, so it's still a slight possibility. I'd really like to make it.

noonan Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) Good thing about central iowa... its is a mild drive from Minnesota and central/west Wisconsin. Our goal is to keep this tournament ON SCHEDULE. Tough to do but we will bring in as many TV/Consoles as we need to ensure first rounds run fast. We will have non-player volunteers that will focus only on tournament flow, that might help too. We'd prefer the tournament to be over by 7pm, Allowing participants to drive home vs stay over.
