Registration
Interest Form

We have a set of candidate dates and want to know what works for you before we finalize. This is not a registration form; completing it does not hold a spot or commit you to anything.

01 — About You
Your username, handle, or whatever the community knows you as.
How would you like to be contacted? * We'll be in touch when registration opens. You'll only hear from us about this event.
Provide the relevant username or address.
02 — Date & Interest
The event runs on a Saturday, with optional Friday evening and Sunday community gatherings for those making a full weekend of it. Select every date below that works for you.
Which of these dates work for you? * Select all that apply.

03 — Competition Events
The championship includes four individual events: Speed, PvP (Swiss + Top 8 finals), Efficiency, and No Flag. Each event has its own winner — there is no single overall champion.
Are you planning to compete or attend as a spectator? This helps us know whether you'll need a dedicated computer workstation.
Which events are you planning to enter? Select all that apply. You're not locked in yet.
No guarantees, but we want to know what the community is interested in.
Outside of formal competition — casual play, trivia, brackets, meetup activities, etc.

04 — Weekend Plans
Are you planning to make a full weekend of it? Saturday is the competition day. Friday evening and Sunday are optional community gatherings.
What are your likely accommodation plans?
Would you be interested in coordinating accommodations with other attendees? If there's enough interest, we can help connect people looking to split a hotel or rental.
These are informal, unstructured time with the group — help us think about what to plan or where to go.
How are you planning to get there? Select all that apply.

If merch were available, what would you most want? Select all that apply.
06 — Fee & Anything Else
The entry fee is $25 per person, covering the per-workstation venue cost. *
