Kotei Season 2009 - Bacolod City, Philippines

This year, the Kotei is headed south to Bacolod City!

Here is the official info as posted by Jan Penafuerte on l5r.skillze.com
The Kotei will be held on May 16-17, 2009

Registration:
Registration for the tournament will be P1600 to be paid onsite.

Venue Information:
Sugarland Hotel
Araneta Street, Singcang
Bacolod City, 6100
Philippines
Tel. No. 6334 / 435-2690 to 99

Main Event:
The main event will be constructed 40/40 SE. I am anticipating 8 rounds of Swiss and a cut to Top 8, but that is still depending on attendance.

For the elimination rounds, players will have to play a best-of-three match. I have not yet decided if the Palmer Rule will be used.

Fan Event - Theme Deck:
The theme of the contest is:(underlined part)
The 2009 Kotei season sees the all out assault of the Dark Oracle of Fire across the northern borders of Rokugan. The lands of the Dragon, Unicorn, and Phoenix are threatened, and the newly crowned Empress Iweko I will answer the challenge with the full force of the Clans of Rokugan.

Players who wish to enter in the political contest must create a tournament-legal deck using the above theme, play it in the Kotei, and submit a write-up of their decks to the TO when they register.
The decks will be judged on both flavour and the ability of the deck to play a good game- it doesn't have to be able to win the Kotei, but it should be fun and somewhat competitive.
