HTTP://WWW.RVAtournaments/CivilWar

Greetings to everyone from RVAtournaments.com and RVA Fight Club!

It’s time once again to announce Virginia’s biggest major, CIvil War!

We’re coming at you with all 6 EVO main games, as well as 5 more tournaments!

We’re also proud to announce that Civil War 4 will be a “Road to EVO” event for all 6 of these games, so if you want your Evolution seeding points and a chance to get on that big stream event, come to Richmond, Virginia at the end of April!

The date

We will be hosting it from 6pm April 27th to Sunday 29th 2012. That’s right, a 2.5 day event! Schedule is to be announced and is dependent on registrations, but plan on most tournaments taking place saturday, and top 16’s (or even 32’s) taking place on Sunday.

The venue

will be Comfort Inn Midtown Conference Center in Richmond, VA.

We will have two ballrooms with over 7000 sq ft of space! This is the same location we’ve had River City Runbacks and River City Bowl, with the added bonus of a secondary ballroom.

Room blocks have been added at an ULTRA discount rate of 69$ per night. That’s SUPER cheap! Book now, because it’s a NASCAR race weekend in Richmond, and those rates won’t last! Rate will expire April 16th!

EDIT: ROOMS ARE SOLD OUT. PLEASE CHECK OUT NUMEROUS HOTELS IN AREA FOR ADDITIONAL LODGING.

The price

Every game is 10$ to enter with one exception (more on that later).

Pre-reg venue fee (CHANGED FEB 12th)

is 20$ from now until March 31st.

After that, it’s 30$ from April 1st-24th.

Registration will be 40$ at the door Saturday morning.

We will be handing out badging and allowing “at door” purchases of badges at the event on Friday night.

Please, please don’t wait until the last minute. The tourney experience is always better when I have more time to plan for the correct amount of attendance!

The pre party!

Team tourneys and side tourneys will be the night before on April 27th. Expect old school tournaments, team tourneys, and just general merriment. Also, we will be doing pre reg check ins, pool assignments, and last minute (at door) registrations there.

Without further ado…

If anybody is planning to go but has no housing plans set yet, I have a hotel reserved at $69 with one other person on board.
