DaPiranha beat Hawca though and they was on same record?

Oh wait, that would be starting that again. Doh!

I found that comparison interesting; in several places there is a fairly direct swap between teams on the same W/D/L points, e.g. wilzif/besters, Gorgoroth/Glowworm, Camsbell1514/landrover, WWE2015/ZerosGiven, which seems to support if your SoS is harder your bonus points will be lower. I know that would seem to be stating the obvious but I find it interesting to see in 'black and white'

Ironically, or not, the one place this categorically is not true is 1st and 2nd, Hawca had both the harder SoS and also scored more bonus points.

Thanks for hosting such a great tournie and thanks to all my opponents especially those on the second day who were very sympathetic to my God awful dice :)

Cam and I had another enjoyable time

Thanks once again !

i was very surprised to finish third, or even fourth, and would happily concede Wilf deserved to be placed higher.

Good, well organised tournament, enjoyed the second day comebacķ. Good fun away from the game.

Thanks to all my opponents, particularly for putting up with grumpy me, excepting Landrover, who was even grumpier.

Besters

Hmm... bonus points...
Here's the table with no bonuses, using 2/1/0 and SoS, side by side with the original, full bonus table.
A few differences, but Hawca still wins.

Can we use this table instead? :D

Speaking of which I have an orange block dice that Cam kindly allowed me to borrow (as mine didn't work on Zons!!) so if your at Thrud I'll bring it along.

I also "aquired" a dug out which some put / left in my bag (Maverick perhaps??) if anyone is missing one?
