Format

In this event players play in teams of 3, with each player representing a different faction from their teammates. Table talk is encouraged so you can ask your teammates for advice and blame well when they tell you to run a server which turns out to be a Snare!

For this event you will be playing Standard with the 24.09 banlist. The only additional requirement is that you and your teammates must bring decks of different runner and different corp factions, this can include the Neutral 'faction' on each side.

The event will consist of 4 rounds of Double Sided Swiss with a break for lunch. During each round each win that your team gets will count towards your point total (with a maximum of 18 points available each round!). During each round you will be paired with an opponent from the opposing team based on the number of wins you have as an individual.

Venue Change!

New Venue

The new venue for UK Nats is Ashton Court Mansion, Long Ashton, BS41 9JN. The building is fully wheelchair accessible and we are being given use of several spaces inside to accommodate fixed seating and the stream. There is wi-fi available, but for the time being we are planning to stick to our policy of restricting access to that in order to prioritise the stream.

However, Ashton Court is a little way out of Bristol City Centre - approximately 15-20 minutes’ drive or 45 minutes by bus from Bristol Temple Meads train station. In addition, the building itself is 10-12 minutes’ walk up a long driveway from the nearby bus stops.

Travel

We are exploring several options for helping attendees traverse the extra distance to the new venue. Firstly, we ask that any attendees who have a car and are able to make trips from Bristol city centre to Ashton Court at the start or end of any of the days please make themselves known to us so that we can arrange carpooling for those without vehicles. There is free parking available at the venue. We will be coordinating this in the below thread, so please post there if you are able to help.

We are aware that this extra travel may create an obstacle for some attendees who have physical access needs or who had not budgeted for it in their planning. If you have particular needs in terms of transport or access, or your financial situation is such that the cost of this extra transport would be a barrier to your participation in the event, please contact us using the details below. We will coordinate transport (likely via taxi) for those who need it for these reasons, using the event budget.

In addition, in order to assist people in making the journey from the edge of the Ashton Court estate to the venue building, we will be running a volunteer shuttle service. If you have a vehicle, will be driving to the venue, and are willing to help shuttle people at the start or end of any of the days, please get in touch.

Food

Ashton Court does not have the facilities to cater for the number of attendees we are expecting, and given the size of the estate it is not close enough to other places where attendees could buy food in a timely fashion. As such, we recommend that all attendees make plans to bring food for themselves for each day that they attend, especially on Saturday which will be a long day.

In addition, we will be sourcing a large quantity of vegan, nut-free snacks which we will make available at cost price in the venue, for payment by cash or card. Please do not assume that this

Prizing

TBC

Volunteering

We are looking for lots of volunteers to help with reporting results and pairings, judging games, running and commentating the stream, setting up, running side events and much much more.

All attendees who volunteer during the main event on Saturday will get free entry into all side events and will not need to buy a ticket. If you plan to play on Saturday but volunteer on other days, we are very grateful for your help but you will still need to buy a ticket!
