ARBBL Open 2010 - March 20th/21st, Andover, Hants.

[Darkson]

Well, feeling a big fragile (and no, I haven't touched a drop), but managed to keep everything down, so that's a plus.

See everyone in an hour!

Having a few problems with Score printing the results (but the data is fine before anyone get's worried! ), so after day 1:

1st: Grumbledook (Undead, 45 of max 48)
2nd: Ceetee (Dark Elf, 40)
3rd: SillySod (Vampire, 39)

Most TDs:
Grum 8

Most Cas:
Gazza 11

22 participants on day 1, one definete dro-out day 2, but a possible replacement coming down.

Some pics already up on the ARBBL website.

Ty for a great tournament Mr Darkson.

Now for the controversy... how did Noobwhile come 3rd? My money is on some of the special "Andover counting" coming in to play, surely theres no way matt could have come out ahead of the vamps

So who won?

[SillySod]

Very very tight tournament.

The winner had 4/2/0 while I got 4/1/1 and wasnt even in the top three so the top places must have been pretty close.

CeeTee (aka SomersetTee, aka Chris) won with dark elves... bagging his second tournament win and remaining the only uk player to win something with dark elves.

Grumbledook came in second with undead. He looked strong throughout the tournament and went into the last round with a 4/1/0 record (he drew against CeeTee). A great showing and he looked pretty comfy with undead.

I'll leave the rest of the results for darkson to declare. One person managed to get a spoon and a winners trophy!

Thanks for a great weekend Darkson.
One of my best results to date, with 3/1/2, so it can get only worse for the rest of the year

Actually, I've noticed the same thing (now that I've had a chance to actually look at it).
According to the screen print I took at the hall (the one linked above), Matt came 3rd, you 4th. Just loaded it up onto the PC so I can enter the results, and it's swapped your positions (which looks right to me, as you didn't play each other, and you had a better TD diff). Not sure why that's happened.

So, official apology, and correction - SillySod came 3rd with his Vamps, Matt was 4th (I'll get a new screenprint done and get the post above updated).

[SillySod]

In your face Matt!

Sweet sweet justice

PS, it was great to see everyone after what seems like a long time, especially glad to have seen matt again before he goes into hibernation.

[Lycos]

Very good weekend and an incredible tight finish. The winner (CT) went 402 and I was fifth with 402 so all the top 5 had four wins. 420/411/411/402/402 for the top 5 in order I think.

Feel VERY battered. Been checking all my records, I have never, even with halflings and goblins, conceeded 23 CAS or more. And that does not include a number of others who died on dodges so no wonder I felt players down. But gutter runners are awesome things aren't they. Just plain crazy some of the scores I did with 5 players. Wonder if they will get nerfed in a few years time.

Good job Simon, good event!
