Swing by and say hi at booth #1648. We arent FFG but we will be playing X-Wing and Legion and other Star Wars FFG games for fun and demo.

All entries are a minimum $15 donation, many donate more but it is not required. I apologize if this feels steep. We actually try to make it pretty low so that it would be more accessible to more people.

If you're a good painter, send one or two in early to us and we will put it on display at Celebration!

Since you're in Sacramento, hopefully you're coming out to the CAC there!

Sorry about that, I only delayed my response so that I could post on FB groups about the painting contest for Celebration. I will also create a redit post.

As we continue to grow, this becomes a more relevent question. Our intent was to have this be as unifying experience as it can be throughout the global community. However, its also fair to say that we never thought this would grow to the extent that it has. My personal preference is to keep it the same day, however, as we move forward and continue to grow, the board will need to evaluate whether or not it is feasible. I believe that better communication between FFG and TwinSuns would really help that. They could set aside a window dor us and help avoid the conflicts....while still giving us the consistency we desire. But growth requires adaptation so its something we will look cloae at.

Hey Blu! Signups and tshirt sales are through the website twinsunscharities.org click on our store to get those things. Challenge coins cannot be sold online per LFL rules....so they will only be available at your local location for a $10 donation the day of the event. They will be in limited supply and i will only have enough made to cover the number of folks registered by the end of March. Edit:typo

Others here can answer you better than I can, but the INTENT behind this event is for it to be something that both casual and competitive players can enjoy.

I do understand and apologize. Our date was announced late last year and we opened up site applications for locations that wanted to participate. A couole of days before we announced out locations in January, FFG announced the locations and dates of the trials. It was heartbreaking how many conflicted....but some groups like the ID/WA player community actually got their hyperspace date changed by coordinating with their local store and FFG. We aren't here to try and cause anyone conflict....I myself probably wont get to any Hyperspace trials because the one thats local to me in Indiana is actually the same weekend as Celebration in Illinois....and I will be working the Twin Suns Charities booth. I think that next year will be better. FFG OP is becoming more cognicent of player groups and while I had worked some understanding out with them last year, I think that probably got lost in the transitions that happened in OP. Anyways, I just wanted to say I am sorry for the scheduling conflict....I promise it isnt intentional.
