Lets give this another go shall we?
but first let me again say that, I know where I am
and I know how evreyone feels about the High Times Magazine and Cannabis Cup in november. I agree with many of the criticisims, but still enjoy Amsterdam in November for a variety of reasons.
Let me also say everyone should support ICMag because this is a great place with people who really love and care about the plant, thus the strong anti HT feelings...! but certainly some of you STILL will be going to Amsterdam when the cup is going on
that being said, lets talk about EVERYTHING going on this year in November?
There is something called Dirty Dutch going on November 24th Organisator: ID&T Club BV - Locatie: Heineken Music Hall, Amsterdam

and also something called the Crossing Border Festival which I still don't fully understand...
last but not least, of course is the HIGH TIMES CANNABIS CUP Nov 18-22nd
they sell tickets... err I mean judges passes... whatever... cost is like around 200. Some think its worth is for the events and getting together with so many like minded people, but if your planning on getting free bud or anything with your pass... don;t count on getting much of anything other than souvenires and what have you. STILL If your going to buy a judges pass and go to the cup then you may want to know more about what is going on, OR you may KNOW more about what is going on and then you should post it here!
