Top event, up there with Crumb Bowl, hopefully I will be there again next year.

Fair play, Camsbell's skinks put it all over me lol :)

Thanks to Gorgoroth, Landrover and Monkeyjuice also, 4 very entertaining games :)

Thanks to wobert and cornish for putting in the effort to run the tournament. Cracking venue, hope you can get it next time. Adding skills to the star in the second half of the tourney, as he shook off the rust and got riled up from the crowds laughing at him, worked very well I thought. By the end Ernie was a beast!

Thanks for a great event guys. The injuries make you think about your team in a totally different dimension.

And dont pay any attention to the naysayers, Ernald is a legend. ;)

Awesome tourney once again. My thanks to all :) May the Masters long continue, it's really refreshing to play something other than the standard.

Gratz to Dio and Maverick *shakes fist* going 3-0-0 playing in the final with goblins and not even coming away with the stunty cup is a sting, but happy to lose out to such a pleasant guy :)

Btw what the hell do the birds down that way eat?! Needed a chisel to get that off my windscreen. Perhaps it was a disgruntled hawk of some description :-P

You did deny Hawk the most casualties award despite both of you inflicting 9 (yes 9!) injuries in each of your opening games. I saw him loosening his belt when he was leaving . . . !!

I also forgot to say a very big thank you to Trumpkin and Nightwing for doing the quiz. I thought it worked really well at keeping people occupied in between rounds while Cornish and I did all of the admin.

We do hope to have the same venue next year but the pub is about to change hands apparently so it will depend. More on that in due course when we know.

I've added an attachment for anyone who likes a bit of fluff, its the crib sheet from the day which had the 'Did you know style' facts on, the 'Auld World Masters Record Book' and finally 'Dirty' Mac McFlash the Super Fan Itch got to use. As Dio is now the current champion he will get to use a new super fan next year.

We feeds 'em on scrump down here young master. Keeps all they forrinners away with they fancy motors.
We trained 'em special like, and they don't shit on tractors no more.
So next time, bring your old John Deere down and allus will be foine.

Thank you to Wobert and Cornish for the organising and the admin.
Thank you too to my opponents who, despite the growing volume and profanity, kept smiling as they tore my goblins several new ones.
I love the fact that I managed to scrape two draws, and got resoundingly thumped in the other two games.

That's those little buggers off my 24 list, on to something sensible! Like Ogres....

+ 1 to that!

Good tournament though, thanks to Wobert and Cornish for a different slant on BB and to my opponents and Nuffle for letting my humans go unbeaten.

Wow - just wow, great tournament well organised by Wobert and Cornish, many thanks to my opponents 4 different races and some really interesting builds, apologies to Nazgob and Cornish, may nuffle smile on you slightly more favourably next time we play ( although only slightly)

Was really surprised to pick up the stunty cup as thought Itchen had it in the bag, finishing 3-0-1 with halflings on first tournament appearance, think I might have to retire them now :)

One last thanks to hawk and landrover for the "interesting" conversation topics between games

:lol:
So when I see the Fowl Bowl record book mysteriously appear then it will be a complete co-incidence then right? :)

Before I forget . . . . as well as Glow's copy of the rules and an un-claimed Skaven team, I also have a black D6 that looks like a casino dice. Someone kindly planted it in my box.

IMPORTANT
Next year we will have more 'Did you know . . . ' style bits of fluff. Can you PM me anything fun / silly / crazy dice that happened in your game that may suit inclusion? It could also be something that happened outside of game . . . .for instance this time Hawk's flatulence from AWM I was mentioned.

Great competition, great venue and food. Thanks for the fun games.
Highlights/lowlights - suffering 9 casualties from Itchen, a 4-3 loss to Monkey1985, a win against dwarves, Bacon, egg and chips :D and a nice 'fling' model.

Looking forward to next year.

Sorry Nazgob but for the dyk, has to be mentioned in game 3 the underworld troll suddenly losing both hands making him unable to throw.

Cracking tournament, great venue, nice food too! Already looking forward to the next one.

Thanks to my opponents too, 4 players I'd never played before was great. And I sort of enjoyed playing as Necromantic for the first time. Might have to brush up with them on Fumbll and use them a bit more...

Thanks Wobert and Cornish for puting on a cracking tournament! Also to my opponents for four fun games - tabletop is where Blood Bowl should be played! Great bunch of coaches made it a highly enjoyable day out - hope to return next year :)
