After 12 hours sleep :zzz: I now ask myself why I did this (again!) with halflings (again!)
Because it's FUN.
Great time was had - sorry to some of my opponents in the early hours (games 8 - 11) if my crankiness got a bit much, old age and fluctuating blood-sugar levels are my excuse.
Thanks to all, especially Jip for putting this together and Fitlhmonger (I forgot your real name) for the best/funnist fling mirror match I ever had.
Next year - medical advisement my be required ????

Would it be ok to have a medical drip for the duration?

TOs! You do not need multiple copies of rosters. It's a waste of paper.

Final results of the 3rd Coffee Cup, which took place over the weekend. Eleven back-to-back games, played over 24-hours (actual 25½ this year!) straight.

Big well done to thatasianguy for taking the top spot with his Orcs.

Thanks to the returning coaches and (hopefully) a warm welcome to those joining us for the first time.

Found out this morning that for one coach, filthmonger, it was actually his first ever NAF-sanctioned event… hell of a starting point!

Huge appreciation for spiky who sourcing a great venue for us this year and, as ever, for Sann0638, who is by far the best resource I know for all things Blood Bowl and Excel related.

Also, shout-out to Chris over at Little Git Painting for the prize donation of our ‘Gentleman’s Result’ (the most balanced player, who finished on 5-1-5 for the weekend), a fantastically painted Helmut Wulf.


Personal highlights include:

My game against Duffins, who is one of my favourite people to play anyway, and my Farming useless Halflings.

My turn one against AngryHobbit which involved me being 1-0 down and ended on my first roll… a double-skulls.

Sitting in earshot of filthmonger’s infectious enthusiasm for the game pretty much all weekend.

Padster taking my early morning tantrum like a true gent (sorry dude)

Killing Hakflem Skuttlespike!

Mike saying he couldn’t face playing Blood Bowl all weekend, then being there for a large part of it, anyway.


Apologies on the behalf of all, to all, for any late night/early morning grumps, perhaps several of us could have justified a trip to the Tantrum Room!

Will run same time again next year but, for now, I’m pretty sure I know seventeen other guys who don’t want to look at a Blood Bowl pitch any time soon!

NAF upload has been done already by me…ike Davies.

If anyone lost this dice during the festivities, give Vindaloo a shout as he inadvertently pinched it, having now had time to unpack!

Hi jip, just checked results - you have us down as a 1-2 win to you, I’m sure it was the opposite 😉.
