When is the next So.Cal. tourney? :o
Good question. I eagerly await a response. :)
Where's the closest place to upper east Tennessee that I could get into a game? I live near Johnson City, Kingsport, Bristol.
We're hoping to get more tournaments/meetups in the USA in 2013. Buffalo, NY is on schedule for March. Depending on how that goes; we might stir up enough interest to have others near the West Virginia/Maryland area.

You're in the tri-cities? I'm in Nashville. Surely you come to the ville sometime! We should meet up. ;)

I might visit a friend up in Boston next summer. Is that close enough? I suck at Northeastern US geography. Everything over there always seems to be a few miles away from all the other big cities. ;D
I never bothered to learn any US Geography, I just load up maps to see how far of a drive it is from the Toronto area.
BBH and I won't be organizing these meetups in the US so we won't know when or where they will happen. If anyone's coming to the Toronto area for a visit, we'll certainly try to gather people for a meetup or try to push up a tournament date so we can have newcomers. You gotta give us 2+ months notice though.
But I will digress, we can discuss these meetups in another topic, this one should be about Southern California.
Judgeone is the one who organized the last California tournament so he's likely the one to do the next.
Wheres the love???

With that last tourney in So Cal having a good showing, I really thought we'd have another by now. ???
We could plan a tournament around one of the comic conventions in Long Beach or Anaheim. Or I can see about having one at Frank & Sons in the City of Industry. It is basically a weekly collectibles convention anyways. Im not sure Judgeone would be involved because I bought a few boxes of cards from him a few months back. When I got home I realized after going thru them that he took out some of the valuable cards he had shown in the pictures he sent me. It was thousands of cards so it was impossible to check everyone of them in a parking lot. I'm sure he doesnt want to run into me again. We did this transaction around the time he stopped coming on this forum. You live and learn.
Bogus. Plain Bogus. But hey, if you plan something in SoCal, if the airfair isn't too steep, and its late enough in the year for me to save up, ya never know! Might come see California. Never been, and OverPower is a good enough reason to go.:)
man...that's complete BS
i assume contacting him has proved fruitless?

I've never been to Frank & Sons but have always wanted to check it out. An Overpower meet up would certainly give me greater reason to check it out. ;)
Sorry to hear about your bad experience with those cards. :-\
Csulb has a big gaming floor.
Maybe even the city college in long beach.
Anyone going to San Diego Comic-Con who wants to play overpower? I know i try this every year and only the same 3 people show up every year. Its probably cause of the price,and availability of tickets. However if anyone is going this year and wants to meetup during the con, or at night after in our hotel please let me know.

I contacted him later by text that day after I started sorting the cards. He said I could have checked them in the parking lot when I bought them. I told him these arent cards I thought might be in this lot, these are cards in the actual pictures he sent me. He stopped responding to my texts after that. Since he was on this site I may have trusted him too much. You live & learn. I'm sure I'll run into him again.
KObossy, get over it, Bro. You are full of crap, saying I took cards out of that whole $125 sale of over 5000 cards. Have you seen me sell any lately? Right, because you bought ALL of my cards. No slight of hand, no tricks, no cards misrepresented in photos. Nothing to gain by duping some chump. Stop your whining and slander. Is anybody else sick of this guy complaining? Sorry, Bro, you deserve worse than this.

I'll see you when I see you. We'll "talk" about it then.
Wow, making threats about a $125 purchase. If he did pull stuff that was pictured, it was wrong of him. If you did fail to look through the stuff you were buying (especially if any amount of time had passed between the photos and the actual purchase), then it was wrong of you. It's an unfortunate situation. Sounds like you still got a considerable amount of stuff, sounds like he didn't make a humongous profit.
What was left out of the deal anyway? What was the stuff you thought you were going to get, but ended up not receiving? Maybe I'll just give you the cards you are so mad about so the both of you can move past this. There are like, maybe 20 active Overpower players from LA to San Diego. How about you tone down the rhetoric so that we can all still get together and have tournaments with the one person who has shown the initiative to put something together so far? Fracturing an already tiny playerbase over this is absurd.
Anyway, have you been thinking about another tournament Chuck? I know for sure Aaron would come this time, and maybe he could talk Yuri into it too. I would bring at least one person with me, maybe up to three. I think Aaron might be in contact with Jon Land still too, maybe he would show? All that + the people who came last time (Skeevo666, Alex and Eugene, etc) would make for quite an event.
Someone make a socal tourney date so we can see KOBossy vs judgeone.
Fight, i mean matchup of the century.

I might be able to get my other nephew and maybe another person or two to come . . .
What location?
