You can land at Lyon or Geneva (Swiss) airports on Friday, September 16th.
Provided you tell us soon enough beforehand, we'll come get you at the airport.

If some want, we can do a barbecue / party, what you'd like with friends and fellow players (organizers should be really busy before the tourney) on Friday night / Sunday night. A restaurant is booked for saturday already (see below in various informations).

Happy to have you !

I added you to the list !

[Boreas]

The flight and accomodation for Worlds should be offered to the winner if we reach 48 players (pending confirmation by EDGE this week). So everyone join us!!!

 

Even for a player from outside of France?

[medfreeman]

Even for a player from outside of France?

I'm waiting for confirmation, but it seems the bye would go to the winner, and the flight should go to the best french nationality player.

I learned today that it happened with netrunner, where a foreign player won the nationals, but the free travel went to the finalist, who is french.

 

Edit: depending on the editor's rules. If we get the choice, which i think we won't have, we'll give the travel to the winner, regardless of nationality.

Rules have been updated, confirmed that the flight ticket will be given to the first french player, if we reach 48 players, and the bye and trophy go to the winner.
