The dudes who ran CO:LON have moved to Canada so they certainly won't be organising another one, it remains to be seen whether anyone else will pick up the mantle. There have been other London-based events though (such as Co:bliviLon) but frankly, if you can get to London no problem then you can hop on the train with loads (well, three or four) of us and get to Lincoln in January. It's the original (maybe, I don't actually know), biggestest and bestest tournament and covers a whole weekend of Countdowning and drunken debauchery. And the travel/accommodation is dead cheap too if you do it right (not like Gevin).

There've been open days at the Edinburgh Countdown Club before but it's the first tourney to be branded Co-place name so it's original in that way. :)

January 25th and/or 26th 2014, in case you were wondering. There's also usually a healthy contingent of Countdowners from the Milton Keynes area which is just down the road from Bedford. :)

As for Co:Lon, it would be a damn shame if there wasn't an event in the capital next year. Fortunately, there are people looking into it. 8-)

Is milton keynes the all nighter? I definitely recall at cobliv that there was going to be another all nighter just Ann/Amie wasn't organising it and it wasn't in london
