I have paid the entry fee for the 1st German Open Scrabble Tournament in Mannheim.
I went for the cheapest option - 80 EUR (registration and refreshments only). 90 EUR pro night in the recommended hotel is a bit too strong for my East European budget :)
So now the entry fee and flights are paid. Just need to find a cheap lodging in Mannheim and my first Scrabble tournament in Germany will be almost perfect :)
