If you get to Pease Bay after the Office is closed, keys can be picked up in the bar.

Just a quick note that if anyone finds a extra Tan/cream Firetrap jacket laying about it's mine, seems I dropped it and some point and can't remember where... for obvious reasons. ;)

Awesome Tourney, as always! I know most people are still at the park having a cracking time, but just to fill everyone in, Valen won with Stick second and Frazer third. Ironjaw got most Cas with Goblins(!?!), apologies to most TD's but I forget who ended up with it? I was shocking, ended up on the beach playing BeachBowl with a team of Celtic Goblins vs some Rangers Goblins! Was fine for the first couple of minutes, then it started raining... :D

Thanks Rob, thanks everyone I played and thanks to Pease Bay for not chucking me out after my shocking Friday night!!!

I think your jacket it down at the football green, hung on a fencepost.


So good luck getting it.

Thanks to Sandy who cleaned up after us and Rob for organising it.

Great weekend and met some more folk. I went into a fouling frenzy in game 6 which wasn't too clever. :o

I came 4th with Halfings. Dusty Bin 3-2-1.

Take that LRB 6.0 you just got a sucka punch.

Oh I played 2 dwarves, 2 skaven, 2 wood elves.


Are halflings supposed to be tier 1..?

Well done again to Hoomin, and hope the mutations idea works out next year! :wink:

Ah crud, thanks for solving the mystery though. At least I did the smart thing and took an old one, I have a habbit of wrecking jackets with one too many in me.

It was great craic though, got exactly what I expected and more. Applause to everyone who had a go at the poteen on Friday. Big thanks to Rob naturally and whoever it was that babysat me when passed out. (someone told me but damned if I can remember now). On that note apologies to whoever played me the last two games on Saturday, I'm sure I wasn't much of an opponent in them. I'll echo Don__Vito with cheers for not tossing me out, hope I was entertaining at least! ;)

See everyone next year. :)

I didn't realise this at the tournament. Bloody scary when a halfling team is beating Dwarves and woodies. Something should be done about the present halfling sitiuation...

were you using the proposed 50k master chef?

that is way too cheap should stay at 100k imo

It's the non-Loner treemen that are the bigger problem. Never root and never turn over so flings have a reliable cage.

its probably both then

can steal the rerolls from the other teams so they can have loads and can use them on the treeman

and the other team has less rerolls so doesn't really in effect have the same TV, playing with less rerolls is a nightmare and I can easily see how flings could win

given the choice, to play against a fling team with either loner less trees or no chef, i'd pick the no chef team every time

You are right that the two compound each other. The Chef is just stupid when it adds on average 90K to your TV and strips between 100-140K from your opponents (a 260K swing). All for 50K is silly, and I said that a year ago.
