Greetings to all,
I received word that there is to be an RPS Championship here in Calgary, AB next Thursday (Jan 20).  My question to any and all, is: Is this Championship a WRPS sanctioned event?
I am keen to learn as to whether or not it is, and will base my decision as to whether or not I will attend, based on the answer(s) to this question.
Best regards,
Empire

There was a sanctioned Tournament in Panorama recently, but word of it being a sanctioned event never came to the European Office.

I would say it is safe to say it is a rogue match. Any details on it?

Greetings to all,
It turns out that the so-called "Champions of Calgary" Tournament was nothing more than a publicity stunt designed to lure the unsuspecting people in to consume copious amounts of alcohol at rock bottom prices. "What's the problem with that?" some of you may ask, well on any other day I would be asking the same thing. But the fact remains that they bastardized the sport of RPS to sell a few drinks.  Needless to say, there was no real tournament. This rogue competition was a complete disaster.
Best regards,
Empire
