anned\nI hope this tournament will help people prepare for worlds. I set t
his event 3 weeks before worlds as a way to help set the stage for final t
esting. This will also be a great new player friendly event to join for ev
en if you wont be able to make it to SF for the official world championshi
p š I expect this will be another epic netrunner tournament bringing to
gether new and old players of all levels for a wonderful day of connecting
with friends and hacking servers š„³\nAll COs are fairly casual events a
nd I make a special effort to make these events approachable and inviting
for newer players. This is a great place to start if you've never played i
n an online or any tournament before. There is even a bonus prize for firs
t time online tournament players!\nGames will be played on Jinteki.net. I
will be coordinating the event through the Null Signal online events hub D
iscord server. You can join the server here. We will be using the #online-
store-championship channel for announcements. More details will be posted
closer to the date of the event.\nHow long the event will be? This is goin
g to be a large event and I expect to run 8-10 rounds of single sided swis
s plus a meal break on day one. This should take between 7 -10 hours. You'
re definitely not required to play the whole event to get prizes. I'm sur
e some people will end up dropping part way through. I expect we will have
enough players for a cut to top 16 on day two\, this will be a standard d
ouble elim cut with the same start time as day one.\nI plan to have event
streamed\, if you have interest in commentating or helping stream please r
each out to me on discord!\n\nTell your friends it's LAN Party Time!\nThe
most fun I have had during online tournaments is when I get a few friends
together and try to take down an online event together. I will have a few
Holo Man playmats and some extra prizing I'll be raffling off for players
who meet up together while playing in this online event! Having other play
ers around to celebrate or commiserate with is a true joy!\n\nWhat happens
if I buy a ticket and can't make it? You have two choices\, first I can r
efund your ticket. The earlier you can register the better it is for me an
d I don't want that to cost anyone who has their plans change. The second
option is to keep your ticket and I will ship you the participation prizes
and any early registration bonuses š Playing is required to receive th
e first time tournament bonus.\n\nOptional fundraiser for my netrunner tra
vel: There is an option at checkout to donate to my travel fund. This time
100% of the donations will go to help me pay for my travel to worlds. I d
efinitely don't want anyone to feel pressured to donate\, but I also want
to send a huge thank you to everyone who has donated in the past. These ev
ents don't do much more then break even and the donations truly wam my hea
rt and keep me motivated ā¤ļø š©µ š I will be including a small extr
a thank you with prizes for anyone who elects to donate ā¤ļø š š„³ T
hanks you all so much! This community is so amazing!\n\nAffordability My m
ain goal in running this tournament online is to increase the accessibilit
y of competitive netrunner. I have made an effort to keep the ticket price
affordable\, but I want to make sure cost isn't a barrier for anyone who
would like to join. If you are hesitant to play because of the cost you're
welcome to use the discount code NETRUNNER4EVERYONE for 100% off the ti
cket price or HALFOFF for 50% off. I'm hoping to make sure anyone who want
s to play can participate. ā¤ļø The discount codes don't have unlimited
uses\, but so far they have never run out. I'm always really happy when th
e the discounts get used. Please please use one if it will help!\n*Please
only use the discount codes if you actually want to receive prizes\, if yo
u just want to play netrunner you don't need a ticket just sign up on Aeso
p's and join in. I don't bother cross-referencing tickets with players\, b
ut without a ticket/shipping address the only prizes you can play for are
CBI invite and Beans. That said if you can buy I ticket I appreciate it\,
but I would much prefer anyone play then pay ā¤ļø\n
