PREZCON 2005 Report and Results
This long-running
games tournament in Charlottesville, VA now features a Diplomacy tournament run by the CADs using the Dixiecon system and
rules. If you want another chance at no-time-limit, no-hold-barred Diplomacy action, check out the Prezcon website at www.prezcon.com
PREZCON
was February 23-27, 2005 at the Doubletree Inn in Charlottesville, VA.
This year Mike McMillie finally won the tournament
after several strong results at tournaments in past years. This was the year of the 3-way draw as the players involved apparently
did not have the opportunity to go for a win. Two of the games were very long affairs, ending in 1910 and 1912, very early
in the morning on Sunday. Still, there were enough players to get a game going for the third round beginning at 8am!
The
numbers were down some from last year's Prezcon, which had 30 participants. There were several reasons for this, but we hope
to have a smashing event next year when we will (hopefully) be hosting Dipcon as well.
Since Prezcon has many tournaments
other than Dip, there were lots of games played by Dippers on the side when not playing in the Diplomacy tournament. In the
Dip room itself, games such as Age of Renaissance, Evo, Ticket to Ride, Texas Hold'em, Napoleon at Marengo, Settlers of Catan,
Transamerica, St Petersburg, Cartagena were played by David Hood, Bruce Allen, Wilson Hood, Dave Maletsky, Dan Mathias, Jeff
Ladd, Rick Desper, and others.
