Hi guys!

Our website is up, although some of the information needs to be updated (for example there will be 7 rounds of Swiss, not 6).

Peter Gergely
Head Judge

Hi everyone!

As I'm sure you know our Kotei will be one of the last ones this season but that's no reason not to start preparing for it as soon as possible. 'Never change a winning team' says the old proverb and we're following it to the letter. Our team is the same as last year, with Krisztián Gál as the TO, myself (Péter Gergely) as the Head Judge and the venue remains the same as well:
BUDAPEST, Erzsebetvaros Community Centre (Erzsebetvarosi Kozossegi Haz), Wesselenyi u. 17. in the downtown of the capital of Hungary, close to the train station and easy to reach from the airport.

We would love to have you guys over once again, previous years are proof enough what fun it will be.

Krisztián can be reached at chrisg76@gmail.com, my email address is gpm4715@gmail.com
If you want to register for the event or simply have a question, send us an e-mail or a personal message. E-mails are preferred though, as we do not have the time to visit the boards as frequently as we'd like, although I will try to update this thread as new information comes out

See you there!

Peter Gergely

PS: I'm sorry but I don't speak Polish.

If you have any Shrine of the Sun draft-packs please bring them, as AEG didn't include it in their kit. Thanks!

Have a safe trip guys!

As per the official announcement Death at Koten will not be legal at our Kotei!

AEG's offices were closed last week, they supposedly started sending out the sets today, though I have no official information about it. Therefore it should arrive to you in time but if something happens and this becomes a problem for a lot of people then we will get in touch with AEG and probably ask to change the rules.

According to the latest news the cards from the Death at Koten set will be legal at our Kotei, in fact it will be the very first tournament where you can use those cards. Come and surprise everybody with your latest tech! 

Hi!

Me and a couple of friends from Hungary are planning to attend your Kotei. I'm especially looking forward to it as I'm always the Head Judge at the Hungarian one and can't play there. I didn' t find a webpage for the tournament, but I don't speak Polish so it could be that I missed it. Could you provide us with some help regarding the location of the Kotei and some possibilites for cheap accomodation? We'd be coming by car.
Thanks in advance!

Peter Gergely

Only one week left until our Kotei and it's still not too late to make plans for it! Please remember to bring a decklist with you and if you want to compete for the Knowledge point given to the best theme deck, please indicate this on your decklist!

One of the side events has been finalized, there will be a Suicide tournament for sure besides the main event. This format is a lot of fun and you don't need any preparation or training for it. Expect even crazier matches than you're used to!

As always, don't hesitate to contact us if you need any further information!

Greetings,

First of all, the most important things:

The Kotei in Hungary will be held on 29th March-30th March.
Venue will be: Erzsebetvaros Community Center (Budapest VII., Wesselenyi str. 17.) in the downtown of the capital of Hungary, close to the train station and easy to reach from the airport.
Registration will start at 10 o'clock in the morning.
Registration fee is 7250 HUF on the spot (~29 Euro), but if you pre-register before March you'll get a discount of 500 HUF (~20 Euro).

We plan multiple side events for those who didn't make the Top X. Last year for example we got a last minute permission from Todd to run a Winner's Choice draft event, the result of which can be seen on the card 'Duel to the Death' from Honor's Veil.

http://www.futurestartsnow.net used to be the official site of last year's Kotei, you will find many useful information there if You visit it, from possible accomodation to contact information. If You want to register for the event, send us an e-mail or a personal message. E-mails are preferred, as we do not have the time to visit the boards as frequently as we'd like.

Our TO is Nikoletta Nagy, you can reach her at anna.nikoletta.nagy_AT_gmail.com, my name is Peter Gergely, I'll be the Head Judge of the event, you can reach me via pm or at gpm4715_AT_gmail.com

Last year we had players from Germany, Poland, and Sweden among others, feel free to ask around, I'm sure that they can assure you that you'll have a great time.

Some additional things to consider:

- Ours will be the only European Kotei in the second half of March, so if you're likely to suffer from L5R withdrawal then Budapest is definitely the place to visit!
- Leg 4 of Race for the Throne ends on 31st March, making this one of the last opportunities to score some much needed points for your Clan in this Leg.

If You need any further information please let us know, we are at your service.
See You there!
