Golden Gauntlet UK - *NEW* Tournament Series

Jty

Could you not become the blood bowl community overlord of judging best painted? It would give us minions a chance to get some points in this!

(or can I just get a few lessons....)

[JT-Y]

If anyone should ask me to judge Best Painted at a tourney I'm going to, I would say 'yes'.

Calling all tournament organisers ...

[frogboy]

Surely to win best painted points you have to have painted the team yourself??

[sann0638]

Yep.

[peo2223]

But even if we blindfold jty and make him paint with the opposite hand he would still win...

Echo an earlier post, poor show on no love for the east.
I will only make one classic a year (NAFC) whilst I will hopefully still clock in a respectable 9-10 tournaments this year, and most of these will be central / east.

Consider this post noted in my book.

(And that book has noted an awful lot of things that now exist that many now take as standard)

[peo2223]

The way I understand it is that the wild card tournament will change each year to spread the love!

CakeBowl update coming soon

Hi Myrmedon - as I was saying to Sandwich, I tried to pick the larger tournaments as the Classics i.e. 30+ entrants year on year. Although I did also want to include a geographical balance e.g. with the inclusion of Burger as a slightly smaller Scottish event.

It would have been nice to have tourneys like STABB, Pearlies, Boudicca, RIOTS etc. in the mix but I felt there were others which had achieved a more consistent attendance in the south in general. Sorry you feel underrepresented by this.

I’d say there’s a strong case for a South Eastern event being next year’s wildcard. I will ask the UK Tournament Coordinators to make that call again.

And it’s worth bearing in mind that if you do attend a chunk of events in the east you can still do well in the scoring. A good score at a Classic could easily be beaten by two or three good scores at regular NAF tournaments.

[Pipey]

Scores updated! Hawk and Landrover are the early contenders for the trophy (see post #2)...

(edited to what now hopefully makes more sense)

[Pipey]

BTW - dear Mods, would it be possible to get a sticky on this along with the other series?

Cheers

Is it worth back dating this to the start of the year so you have a Golden Gauntlet for all of 2015? I am in no way bias when I say this . . . . but it would then mean I get points for probably the only tournament I will ever win!

[Pipey]

The idea is that the 'season' runs from June to May, with the winner announced at NAFC next year.

You're already on the leaderboard. Keep the faith!
