Good to see you're coming, Matt & Jamie.

Already posted this on the Waterbowl forum, but in case you haven't seen it:

Been thinking about the rounds for the Stunty Slam and am thinking:

Round 1 - vanilla BB
Round 2 - the Winter weather chart
Round 3 - Cards - X amount of gold to spend.
Round 4 - Two Balls/Adapted squig rules (chatting to Duncan yesterday, he bought up the idea of perhaps using the squig move rules rather than having them split ad inifinitum). Grom suggested the 2 balls and I like the idea. just wondering how best to do it. Have 1 ball split into 2 on landing after kick-off? Or, when one team kicks off, have another ball in exactly the same spot in their own half (so the kick offs mirror each other in effect)? What do you think? Anyone fancy play testing the round 4 ideas?

Will this be NAF sanctioned?

Hi Andrew. No, the NAF do not sanction race specific tournaments (Dave and the boys debated it when we ran last year's event). However, this did make it pretty relaxed as no-one had a ranking to protect and also made us more inclined to try some twists.

Is this; any skills can be only be given to stunty players or doubles can only be given to stunty players?

You don't state when you get the skills - though I'm assuming it's as part of your roster, before the first game, and can't be changed after that.

You also haven't said you can't put more than one skill on the same player. I'm not sure if stating this is necessary, though - a guard tackle snotling is a big investment in a small, squishy package. (I'd be a power gamer if I was any good :-) )

Thanks for pointing that out, Sam.


2 normal and 2 double skills (normal skills can be taken instead of doubles).
Skills can only be allocated to stunty players
Max of 1 skill can be given to a player
Skills are chosen before game 1

It doesn't look like I'll be seeing you at any point soon Alex, so I sent you payment instead.
