will be nice to compete again this year after organising last years.

See if the wood elves are rusty after missing a year.

had quite a few last minute cancellations last year which was a shame.

would be great to fill out the hall this year. easily room for 40 entrants and probably more

There may well be 100 days to the Olympics (ooh, topical!) but there are only 52 days to Norwich's Biggest Bloodbowl Bash - BBoing!

It'd be a big help if those who expressed an interest could now book their places (either online here or by cheque to the address in the rules pack).

It'd be an even biggest help if anyone who hadn't expressed an interest book a place or two too. The more the merrier - and don't forget the possibility of birthday cake for everyone if inkpwn comes!

I will almost certainly be there, just waiting until I get my house-move sorted before paying (there shouldn't be a clash with dates, but things have already dragged on much longer than we were hoping, so you never know).

Just a quick heads-up - I looked on your website and the link to the rules pack there is broken.

Aha. You spotted my deliberate mistake, then - I'd managed to get the link right from the thumbnail but not from the text. I've never claimed not to be an idiot. :)

Lol - no it wasn't! (Unless you mean a different Steve). I was playing dark elves which were completely legal (even the ninja assassin who came on in the last game against orcs packing a tazer, and shooting black-orcs in the face repeatedly!)

It was the woodies that had been leant a team that turned out to have an extra player and an extra reroll! Oops! :roll:

I'm definitlely planning on coming to this again - just deciding on what team to bring... one I know I can potentially do fairly well with, one I've actually painted but never used for a tourney (or, infact, any type of proper game) or my gobbos to try for another stunty cup....

Cactus has said he's up for a return visit (the guy with the necromantic team that won the best painted).

Are there pitches as prizes again this year? Not that I'm ever gonna win a best painted (unless I cheat by bringing someone else's team, or all the other players have unpainted teams) but if there are I might be able to persuade another person to get out their paintbrush and bring their team along. :)

hiya prizes depend on entrants. We usually get around 20 people but could fit 40+ more entries = bigger better prizes

The guy who did the pitches last time cant make it this year but im sure i can convince him to make a pitch for the winner.

infact i will PM him now.

This was the prize for last years overall tournament champion. It's a "one off" pitch printed on metal sign board.
I will be making a similar BB pitch for this years winner too:

BBoing! is now less than four weeks away!

Can I ask those still interested to get their places booked ASAP? I'm wanting to sort out spot prizes and the like but at present we've not had enough entries to cover cost of hiring the venue let alone enough to go out and get any prizes.

Many thanks.

Anybody got a spare room I could nab for the tourny? Heck I would take space under the sink! I can send a little cash your way if you could help me out, I would have to bounce up to london by train and after the NAF Champs and chaos cup I'm a little short on coin for the really expensive hotels and the travel around Nodnol.

@inkpwn - I've asked on our club board and will let you know of any offers.

@everyone else - looks like the birthday cake is on, so get those registrations in now!
