Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
G'day all,
A quick introduction to who I am and what this place is for. I am Noel the
National Coordinator for VTES in Australia, enough about me though .
This forum has been set up to help keep Australian VTES players up to date and
aware of the goings on of everything, VTES related, in OZ. In addition this is where Princes can post up Qualifier and Championship information (dates,
locations and results etc).
It will also give players the opportunity to discuss ways of improving the game
in your local area, recruiting new blood and enjoy the witty banter of
personalities as they clash
As this is a discussion forum, I would appreciate it if you would refrain from
trading cards in here. There are plenty of other places for that.
Thank you all for your time
Regards
Noel
National Coordinator VTES Australia

Re: Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
Indeed, howdy. This group will only work, however, if the word spreads and people start using it.

Re: Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
Our Brisbane forum is also hosted here on runboard. We have a section for Rulings, which has been very useful in the past. Not everyone checks the Google group for rulings, however whenever a question arises, I like to find the answer and post it up.
From my experience with the different groups around Australia, I have found that not everyone is aware of rulings that affect the cards and the way they are played.
I'd like to see a rulings section on this forum where rulings can be posted and discussed.

Re: Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
Agree.
This would only be beneficial to everyone. Maybe limit the ability to post in there though? Otherwise it might get cluttered.

Re: Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
G'day,
Good idea this a national forum, we probably should have done this 10 years ago - now we just have to get the word out.
If you don't want people trading in most of these notification forums can I suggest another seperate area specifically for trading? If this is going to be where people come to check all vtes news in future might as well facillitate intra-Australia trading.
Floatey.

Re: Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
The wife of one of the players in Brisbane is a lawyer and she advised us to keep card trades and card sales out of these sorts of forums. The person who has registered the forum can become liable if someone gets cheated in a deal and is ripped off, or suffers any other damages.
I know it sounds silly for trading a few cards, and I couldn't imagine anyone actually doing such a thing here, however it is a consideration for the forum administrator.

Re: Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
Hi!
Awesome work setting this thing up. I think we needed one.
However, I am going to have to add my voice to the chorus of trading section please.
Would seem the logical thing for a forum set up that brings national players of a card game together.
In fact, I am probably not likely to use it if we are prohibited from doing this.

Re: Welcome all VTES Australia Players!!
Possibly there will need to be some kind of disclaimer included in the Trading Section...
Possibly the said awesome Lawyer-ly Wife could contribute something to keep Noel from getting any rediculous legal flak in the event that someone behaves like a douche in the Card Trading section. I'm sure we all personally understand that Noel isn't at fault if there is a trading section, but Lawyers don't think like normal people sometimes.
