The Boroughs is back, baby!

#1 Post by abgemacht » Fri Oct 12, 2018 5:16 pm

Hello all,

I'll be hosting the Boroughs Diplomacy tournament Feb 22-24, 2019 as part of TotalCon in Marlborough, Mass.

Info on the Boroughs: https://sites.google.com/site/boroughsdiplomacy/2019

Info on TotalCon: https://tabletop.events/conventions/totalcon-33

This will be the 7th F2F tournament I have run. I have hosted two webDip F2F tournaments in Mass over the past ten years and people have had a great time. If you're interested in playing in a tournament, consider dropping by!

Pro tip for those attending - TSA is not a big fan of the best country trophies. Check a bag.

Not that it matters to bo, since he wins so infrequently...

My first F2F *ever*, much less tournament, was the Boroughs and it was transformative!

I've been on the hook to go to Massachusetts for a long time to Dip, and this might be the year I can make it work! Pics of the awards, or is it a surprise? I've had more than one trophy that TSA had a problem with ....

In hindsight, that promo isn't about the tournament, although I remembered it was. Anyway, it's still awesome.
