Recently, we discovered that Tygar, our Ultimate TO, was stealing money from HoG.
Due to this breach of trust, Tygar will no longer be welcome at any Hall of Gaming events. CT FGC is cutting ties with him effective immediately.
Our tournaments will still run normally. Thanks!
A dog wandered into HoG while we were playing Jackbox after our Melee weekly last night. Rest assured, this little one is safe and their owner is being searched for by Wallingford Animal Control!
Unfortunately, due to the current Covid climate and the fact that a few of our attendees who tested positive likely contracted Covid from HoG events, HoG will be pausing all events for at least four weeks, starting today.
Hall of Gaming is reopening on February 24th.
TL;DR:
> You need to be boosted if you are eligible.
> You have to bring your vaccine card again even if you showed it in the past.
> Our schedule will be the same as it was before.
> Our events will return to 32-player caps.
