Want to join the NAF?

There is currently a problem with the "Join" link on the NAF website, so if you want to join, you can either:

a) Join at a tournament (assuming a NAF staffer present), or
b) email contact@thenaf.net (formally nafmembership@hotmail.co.uk, however do not use this one)


Worse case scenario, PM a member of the NAF staff on this forum, but an email to the address above will probably get a reply sooner.

Please note that the sign up for new members and existing members renewing is now working fully again. We have been testing for a couple of weeks and no reported issues.

So www.thenaf.net and join up or renew as you like!!

The NAF, is not free to join, I believe the current annual membership fee is £5.00.

For what the NAF is about I suggest you look at www.thenaf.net the organisations website. That is when it's back up and running. try www.thenaf.net in the meantime.

But for me they are about promoting the game, running ranking tables, and generally having a good time around Bloodbowl.

Oh, and then there is the blocking dice given out with membership...................

Problem is that the "Join" option is not on the website, and they arent answering emails, I have tried for weeks now to get an answer.

So it seems you have to be something special to join up in NAF, someone could have told me that NAF was for somekind of elite players or something.

We have delayed doing some work until the election was over but now we need to press on. During Saturday 17th the web site at bloodbowl.net will be going down and you will see a domain message. There is a process, a legal one, we need to go through. It will depend where in the world you are, Europe is expected to exit about 8am, in line with midnight for Central North America, maybe the early hours East coast.

The process we need to do will take between 2 and 5 days to complete so the website as you know it will not be available. This is somewhat out of our hands. We have alerted the tournaments running this weekend so they can organise and set expectation for results entry.

We are aware that 5 days can seem a long time so we have another domain that will also come live some point over the weekend, probably Saturday evening. (Once again this depends on where you are globally).

The address http://www.thenaf.net will host the web site for a few days while this goes on but it will be a static site. I have asked for renewals and sign ups to be disabled as there is no link to Paypal. Dont post there....it will not be there when the site comes back up next week. It is there so you can find information, read forums, find NAF numbers etc.

Sorry for any inconvenience but this is a process we must go through to move ahead and get us where we want to be long term. It could be back up Monday morning but I am very deliberately setting a longer expectation as much of what is involved is done by third parties, not us.

As to mail not being answered, Im not sure what's up with that. Which addresses did you use?

Done both options now, lets hope I get some answer

Can I say the NAF is for everyone, not for elite players. Otherwise I wouldn't be a member of the organisation.

Lycos has just been re-elected as the NAF President, he is a busy man but I think one of the reasons he got re-elected is that he answers all questions and queries as quickly as possible.

Hello Wild Animal!!

I have been away (playing in a BB tourney :) ) this weekend and I replied to lots of emails late last week. I am about to go in a check if one of the other staff havent already been in the hotmail address and see what is there. Dont recognise yours but last I was in was Thurs, I will check.

The answer is that as per mepmuff's mail some work is being done. We can log you in manually but it is a bit "untidy" as there are links between the paypal site and the naf site and that is where the work currently is.... hence you are right membership by paypal is currently off line. I am going to check what the update is but as I say.... I have been away for 3 days.
