Receptiveness to Non-GS HGB Tournaments

Postby Steel Paladin » Tue Dec 13, 2011 11:36 am

Hey guys,

I was just wondering what you folks would think if I were to organize some Heavy Gear tournaments in between Game Summits, Golden Marine-style. I could call it the 'Golden Jerboa'. ;)

Thoughts?

I'd be up for it as long as it is on a single weekend day

I'd probably go with the Golden Asp personally, but I do like the idea.

Or go with the original funny Gear and call it the "Golden Ferret". After all, the Jerboa's basically a Flying Ferret. ;)

To risk straying into meme territory: why can't we have both. An awesome golden trophy with an Asp battling a Ferret would certainly not be frowned upon by most players.

Or perhaps use the Ferret trophy as the Best Sportsmanship prize. ;)

If it's meant as a booby prize, I'd suggest an Asp. ;) And if you're going to be awarding a cheese prize, an Ultimate Jerboa. :lol:

That could get expensive if we have more than one Black Talons player in the area. ;)
