Icon20 2*0*1*6 International GTG N*E*W*S!

Well my friends. After a few weeks, over 2,400 hits and 90+ comments, here we go:

1. It seems like Vegas still has close to 50% of votes, with the rest distributed in other cities and/or countries.

2. Reading all your comments (THANK YOU ALL!), I spoke with a very good friend and TRF member; and we decided to make it big on 2016: we will host TWO GTGs: one of them in the Americas, and a second in Asia Tom (Gaijin) will coordinate the Asia GTG and I will do my homework on America.

3. Separate polls will be posted here for venues, the idea is to have America in Feb-Apr and Asia in Aug-Oct, this would stay away from holidays and even allow some members to assist to both events.

For the new polls, pleas be VERY honest about attendance. As you can imagine, it takes a lot of work and resources to put this together, so 'no shows' take a big toll on the event.

Gracias to everyone for voting and a special THANK YOU to Tom for the overses assistance!

TRFers: let's make this happen!

If Vegas is selected, I'd be happy to assist a limited amount of members by utilizing my casino rate discount at certain properties. I typically play at the Cosmopolitan, Wynn and Bellagio.

Having two GTG's in 2016 is a great idea. Good work Tom and Gerardo
