I will be there for sure. My parents live in Irving (or about 25 minutes away from the Fort Worth Convention Center).

I'll be there. Is it officially announced as the Ft Worth CC now? Last I heard the spot hadn't been revealed yet. Also seems dumb to call something GPallas and hold it 35 miles away in another 1.8 million population city. Ft Worth always gets the shaft.

I'm not sure if WOTC has actually announced it, but yes.

I am in the unenviable position of playing for Rookie of the Year...I came 22nd at Atlanta and 50th at PT Paris (so now I have to go to Nagoya)...so a part of me wants this real bad...so I am going to every GP in North America.I have 7 pro points this year, and the leader (Mattias Hunt) now has 9 pro points (he got 3 points at GP Denver which I skipped to take the lead, and I am not making that mistake again)

It'd be great if they post the detail info already. It's 4 weeks away and people need to book their hotels/flights etc...

Flying out of Buffalo my ticket was only $220 which is $400 less than the price flying out of Pearson in Toronto
