JoshisJoshingyou 18 Posted June 13, 2016 As an Origins veteran I'd recommend leaving plenty of time to get your badge. Lines have hit 3 hours to get a badge opening day before. They aren't the most organized con some years, might want to get badge then go to breakfast. Last I checked there were only like 22 people out of the 120 or however many available registered. I think Nationals at Origins might be lightly attended this first year. 1 Quadro28 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quadro28 173 Posted June 14, 2016 That's a good idea Crik. I've never been on opening day and even then, I've only got day passes before. Registration opens at 7am, so that will leave plenty of time. Also, There is supposed to be an Armada team tournament on Friday. I know it's a LOT of Armada, but has anyone here signed up? I'm considering it and have a possible team mate.

BiggsIRL 6,726 Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) I know DabDarklighter is wanting to play in it and looking for a partner. I would, but either "Howlrunner" is showing up Friday and we get to explore the con together, or she doesn't and I have to hop on a bus to get home and work Saturday.

Yeah, I've been on the fence about the team tournament this week. I did the one at worlds last year and it was fun, but it was also long; my team dropped after the second of three games. Although, it didn't look like too many people pre-registired for that event. If anyone is interested in putting together a Rebel team though, let me know and that may make up my mind for me.

JoshisJoshingyou 18 Posted June 14, 2016 If I don't do the Game of Thrones tourney, I might be looking for a partner for the team tourney. I'll know after Thursday, I'm a Judge for the Armada tourney so see how tired I am. I really wanted to play but needed the job Judging to pay for Origins just as much. 1 DabDarklighter reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cynanbloodbane 3,440 Posted June 14, 2016 I will be driving in tomorrow morning. So breakfast will be on the road. Looking forward to putting faces to some profile names. See ya all tomorrow! If you are pressed for time for breakfast, hit up "Chicken and the Egg" in the food court at the front. I live off those ham & cheese omelets every year at Origins!

BiggsIRL 6,726 Posted June 15, 2016 Preregistration line is substantial. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quadro28 173 Posted June 15, 2016 I'm hoping the line starts dying down after 9. Tournament doesn't start until noon and I don't think the exhibit hall is open today, so I've decided to just do breakfast first. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's hoping, I'd like to get everything booked and figured out for this! 1 KovuTalli reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
