Annual RISK Classic

[Steelhorse]

Hello Fellow Conquer Club Members!!!

I personally invite you to visit our new website, http://www.annualriskclassic.com

The Annual RISK Classic is a live, double-elimination, board game tournament pitting some of the best RISK players in the world against each other for the sole purpose of achieving global dominance. This year's tournament will be held November 6-7, in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.

So, come meet many of your fellow CC'ers (and perhaps even some of the CC staff) for a weekend of fun, friendship, and spirited competition doing something we all love to do...play RISK.

Hope to see you in November.

Agreed. Chicago is the center of the universe. Just ask anybody from anywhere in Illinois besides Chicago and they'll be the first to tell you that we think as much.

Is this like a remake of the Risk TOC?

RISK ToC was discontinued this year. The Annual RISK Classic is taking its place.

Not sure yet. We just started taking registrations this week. But, in year's past there have been about 20-30 CC'ers.

Eventually, if I can build it up that big I'd love to have travelling tournaments that serve as satellite events to the Main Event...kinda like the World Series of Poker. But, that is a few years away.

I was involved with running RISKToC for the past 8 years. Last year there was no tournament and there was no talk of having one this year, so I decided to strike out on my own and start my own. The Annual RISK Classic has no affiliation with RISKToC, it just happens to be run by some of the same staff members.

Have one in Singapore. Cuz to join, I(don't forget I'm 11) have to ditch school, find air tickets to get to US and then get past my parents.

Sounds amazing, but can we have one in the UK. Preferable London.

Anyone based here give me a shout perhaps we can organize a meet up. stewart@gallerystock.com

These are going to be difficult obstacles to overcome... But, I will be running this tourney for many years to come, so we'll be here when you can elude your parents, get the plane tickets, and sweet talk your principal into a week away from school.
