We've been tallking to the organisers of the Uk Games Expo - a convention style event covering RPGs, Wargames, Card, boardgames, computer games etc, about running an Epic tournament at Expo 2013.

The proposed event would be at the NEC Hilton Metropole near Birmingham on May 25th-26th with 5 4k games (3 on Saturday 2 on Sunday)

Prices would be around
£30 ticket only (including entry to the Expo)
£65 ticket+parking+1 night (in a twin room) at the Hotel with breakfast

Would this event be of interest or would a 1 dayer (approx £20) be preferred?

I'd definitely be interested in attending, I'll have a better idea of whether 2 solid days of epic is actually something I would PAY to do after botch ;)

Well, for me i'd be happy with a 2 day event - if just because to do 3 4k games in 1 day you'll be looking at an early start and a fairly late finish, and 4-5 hours driving on top of that would be fairly brutal!

Another 4k event on the scene next year either way would be great though :)

If a 1 dayer were preferred I think we'd try and work a schedule of 2 x 3k and 1 x 4k games or vice versa

Birmingham tournament sounds fantastic :) . Either a 1 day or 2 day event, as long as there's more tournaments down south then it's all good.

Sounds good to me - anything up north(ish) is great!

One more thing to add, this would clash with the WPS CC, who did say they would be looking at bringing Eipc back next year.

Aah, that would put a bit of a spanner in the works, as Clapham were considering sending a team down for this, which would mean i'd likely be there - although if it's a case of no epic at the CC or an event at Birmingham, i know which i'd prefer ;)

as long as there is a tournament happening, I'm not fussed where.... unless clubless 'mercenaries' like me aren't permitted at the club challenge, in which case I throw all my support behind the Birmingham event!

I'd be interested and would attend either type of event, though a 2 day 4k event down south would make me very happy.

And I'll be up for either the CC or this.
