Yay cool. I just wish the San Jose thing where a bit earlier, 'cause I'm
going to be there for LinuxWorld Conf/Expo.
One thought -- might this fit with a more general "lego gaming" theme?
LegoWars springs immediately to mind, and that thing Steve Jackson was (is?)
doin' with pirate boats. That's just a random thought....

I'm not quite sure there's justification for separating these two. I
sincerely hope that _any_ lego competition will be fairly un-gory, even if
it is very combat-oriented -- I certainly don't want MY lego broken. Is any
of this more violent than, say, football or wrestling?
