I'm going, and I'm fairly confident I'll get slaughtered.

Seriously, I'll probably be used as a grossly oversized, sweaty mop to wipe the mats with.

I'm terribly out of shape (read: superfat), haven't done -any- grappling in the past two months, and even before my sabbatical, I sucked. On the plus side, it's not too far away, and I happen to have $45 dollars lying around.

I'll be going in the heavyweight novice division. Anyone else showing up?

I had not heard of this, I may look into going and I'd end up in the heavyweight novice division as well!

If I'm home in June I'll probably try to make it, would be my first tournament O.o

Woohoo! I know very little about CNY, other than my Judo club recently worked out a deal where they can teach in their Watertown school.

I've only been to the Watertown location, and even then only twice. I think I said "hello" to the guy in charge of the local chapter, and that's it. I have done zero grappling the in past two months, and have gotten wickedly fat--last I weighed, I was 309 lbs. As a reference, I consider "reasonably healthy me" to be at 220, and "PT Awesome" at 200. I'll be sucking bawls within a few minutes, I'm sure.

If you do decide to come, great!
