I will be playing in this tournament again. I love the NEO and have had great results both times I've played.
Mike Selig really puts on a great event!
And the fish fry at the hotel Friday evening is fantastic!
A chess game is divided into three stages: the first, when you hope you have the advantage, the second, when you believe you have an advantage, and the third, when you know you’re going to lose! — Savielly Tartakower
I'll probably be there
Still not sure, but thinking of playing.
Looking to share a room - have sleeping bag

Planning on cracking open a can of whoop-ass.

Looks like a large tournament!
Hopefully the event will draw 100+ entries!
Please post some notable results. Don't worry, it won't inconvenience me at all for you guys to take time out of your busy tournament schedules to report results.
Going in to round four...
Kinsman has 2.5-.5 I think
I am 2-1
Robin and Coons are 1.5-1.5
I don't know how the others are faring...
