Party On, Wayne!

So the Nationals party.

Wasn't great. Or was it? Depends who you ask, really.

Basically, there was a great big main chamber housing the dance floor, toilets and bar. The only lights were the strobes from the DJ set, and the only sound you could hear was the extremely loud music. This made it pretty much impossible to do anything other than get really drunk and dance. It was essentially a rave in a prison that got shut down early.

So, naturally, every Sublime player I talked to said the party was great fun.

Others outside the functioning alcoholics and JD (who I'm guessing, based on Sublime A's 17-3 loss to Firestorm the morning after, was by that point non-fuctioning) have different priorities in a party. 

And for most tournaments - uni games/mixed season tournies, youth nationals, open tournaments - it's pretty easy to cater for the crowd that you know will attend. Nationals is a bit different. With the vast amount of different players coming in - Masters players who all have kids, injured players (or straight white males) who can't dance, juniors who can't drink - there really has to be something for everyone. 

Ultimate players are generally pretty easy to satisfy, though, and catering for everyone really can mean just having dinner, a dance floor, and ample seating. And lights. And heating if it's cold out. And cheap beer. But other alcoholic options too, some of us don't like beer. 

Maybe we aren't so easy to satisfy after all.
