If by some grace of fate I'm free that Saturday, it sounds like a fun shindig. I've been down for smaller games lately. Granted, my Dark-Eldar-are-actually-Corsairs are not what I'd call "tournament friendly"... infantry are WYSIWYG (technically), but I've been proxying vehicles so far until I figure out a good conversion that I like. Any chance Nids can squirm onto the +1VP list? Just sayin'. There really is not hard and fast rule on proxies, just like there isn't on painting. If it's kept to a reasonable standard (reasonable meaning it wouldn't confuse the average opponent) then it's fine. It's only 1,000 points, you shouldn't have that many. If your nids have 1 or less flyrants, you can be on the ViP list.

Do you have to preregister?

Do you have to preregister? Yes. But you have until October 20th in this case. It will typically be 2-3 days before the Tournament date. Main reason being, I need to be able to cancel it if there aren't enough participants and issue refuends, or know how many people I'm dealing with on that day. It also causes people to commit, to an extent - and a little bit of that is a good thing.

I think the preregistering is a fine idea, so long as it's only a few days before (this case looks about perfect). For someone like me who traditionally gets their schedule only a few days in advance, I'll still have time to make a last-minute decision on whether or not I'll have that day free. And it makes sense for the organizer to need to know a bit of info and all that, etc etc.

Yeah, I also can't make this one. Got some non-warhammering friends in town that weekend. But I would be down for both November and December.

I would be able to make a lot more tournaments if they were held on Saturdays. I'm almost always working Sunday.

This is kinda late, but as someone with two totally unpainted armies I like a painted bonus. I know I need to get these painted and that's another motivation to do it.

Awesome dude. You should come out, we need more players.
But I think I should offer some clarification on this "Painting Point" thing:
It's going to be pretty insignificant. We are talking about games that will be in the VP ranges of 20-30 per game - every objective on the table is a point...every turn. It's like you always have "Secure Objective 1-6" in your hand at all times. Plus points for killing units, plus the first strike/linebreaker/warlord, PLUS another condition that will vary each game. 3 Points on the day is only going to do anything for you in a very tight race. This has always been the case but I don't think I communicated it very clearly, because I've noticed lots of people putting way too much weight on the painting.
If you're not painted, it shouldn't be a deterrent to not come! Not even in the slightest. I nor anyone else would ever want that.
It's going to be a fun tournament where Objective Secure matters, you want your troops and your CAD to go out and contest and grab and shoot each other off objectives etc. Everyone is going to be scoring lots of points and having a grand time playing Oldhammer.
