You know what it is, how it do, and who we be. Orbital and the Mead Crüe coming back at you with those one finger salutes high, loud, and proud. We're inviting you to join us for Minnesota's favorite illicit bloodsport and the longest running Netrunner tournament series in the world: Oh-Tee-motherf%@#ing-Gee. Make it a point of pride and a point of Pride to turn up, throw the f%@# down, and show everyone just how f%@#ing good you are!

GameZenter (formerly Fantasy Flight Game Center) continues to be our host. This year, we're in their larger Sirius room and the competition is gonna be, well, serious. We're going to lock in and jam as many games as we need to, all in a quest to find the new King in the North (or Queen, or Regent... You do you)!

Wait, there's more! Off The Grid is once again a stop at the North American Netrunner Player's Circuit. We love these folks, they do great work, and we could not be prouder to be part of the initiative. For more information about the North American Netrunner Player’s Circuit, please check out the website.

Notice: Cache Refresh

OTG will continue to be a cash prize tournament. Introduced in 2025, this is $500 minimum backed by Orbital Tangent and the take on tickets. After the event reaches 30 individuals, each ticket beyond that will contribute value to the prize pool. The top prize will not exceed $1000, and any additional funds will be divided amongst the Top 8 as Orbs sees fit.

We know that cash is a contentious topic, but rest assured: We have no qualms about kicking out cheaters and bad actors to keep this tournament a chill, vibes based event like it always has been. The point of cash isn't to be hyper competitive, it's to alleviate any financial burdens of our best player(s) so they can hopefully attend more and bigger events.

IMPORTANT: OTG and the Mead Crüe use naughty language, but we're not really bad boys. It's all a tongue-in-cheek act. We're Minnesota Nice! That said: Come get some.|
