The top 25 events are now eligible for inclusion in WBC 2012 upon receipt of a suitable event form by Feb. 28 from a current BPA member willing to serve as the GM. Events for which no such GM is forthcoming by Feb 28 will be replaced by BPA from those events on the Alternate list with a GM Commitment on record. Vendors and sponsors may also select new events or add those from the Alternate list. To be added to the Alternate list, an event must have an event form submitted to BPA by a willing GM who is a current member.
Martin Wallace's new Dominion Euro/wargame spinoff A Few Acres of Snow led all events with 300 votes and was the only new event to make the cut. It was followed by Richard Borg's Commands & Colors Napoleonics in its second year at 269. Golden oldie Diplomacy returned after a three-year absence as did Goa after a brief 1-year hiatus, but otherwise the list was dominated by returning events from 2011. Four events continued their big fall from grace dropping not only out of the Century but failing to catch the member's collective sympathy and losing Trial Status as well.Adventurers (2 yr), Imperial (5 yr), Stockcar Championship Racing (10 yr) and Titan Two (18 yr) are now in danger of ending their run at WBC in 2012. Doubtless some of these will be saved by sponsors or used as replacements for qualifying events without GM commitments. View the current eligible WBC 2012 lineup on the Orphans Page, which will be updated weekly with GM commitments and new submissions between now and March when GM submissions end.
