The Big Tournaments

Post by GalakStarscraper »

For coaches trying to find a larger BB tournament close to home ... I thought showing the top 25 tournaments held during the last 18 months in terms of size might help (each tournament is only allowed one entry):

1) BLOOD BOWL '04 - Nottingham, UK - 182 coaches (??? NAF)
2) Rendez-Vous Bloodbowl '04 - Saint Quentin en yvelines, France - 84 coaches (84 NAF)
3) MadBowl Madrid '03 - Madrid, Spain - 82 coaches (49 NAF)
4) Valencia Master Bowl '04 - Valencia, Spain - 80 coaches (38 NAF)
5) Barna Bowl '04 - Barcelona, Spain - 78 coaches (??? NAF)
6) Dungeonbowl '04 - Cologne, Germany - 76 coaches (42 NAF)
7) PlayElf Cup '04 - Madrid, Spain - 76 coaches (??? NAF)
8) Dutch Open '04 - Amsterdam, Netherland - 70 players (68 NAF)
9) EuroBowl '03 - AmsterDam, Netherland - 64 coaches (55 NAF)
10) Mannheim Memorial Massacre '03 - Mannheim, Germany - 62 coaches (62 NAF)
11) Lutece Bowl 2004 - Paris, France - 62 coachs (52 NAF)

Cancon?

Post by Babs »

Shouldn't CanCon be #23 and CamCarnage be #24?

It would also be interesting to have a list ranked by the #No. of NAF coaches in attendance.

....I'm planning for CanCon to have over 40 coaches this year...

Yep, that's something characteristical at spanish tourneys .. look at the stats in the beggining of the page: we have massive tourneys, with some 40% NAF coaches in them. We are trying our best to convert them: BarnaBowl '04 got the first 25 coaches a free NAF signup, Valencia Master Bowl '04 got 3 teams + 3 blisters from the NAF as prices, and so did MADBowl '04 ...

At least, we are getting some of them into the mood .. and are joining into the ranks of the NAF ...

Its weird actually, but from 6 games, just one was naf... I dont know why, but manly the age of all BB players in Spain (except the ones you know, are far too young. Also lots of students in the group. The other thing is that for them its already to expensive to go to a tourney and then pay extra for the NAF. If Naf starts to give as prices a year subscrition... that would do a lot!
