Congrats ceetee! I played 4 stunty teams too, but didn't manage to capitalise (pesky Zara...). 4 wins, 2 draws, 1 touchdown conceded, and a decent win over orcs. Will be interesting to see what it does to my two sub-150 NAF rankings.

Good work Simon.

If you cannot stall out for an 8 turn drive to score with dwarves then you need to go and play canasta with your dad..if you can find him.

Will post results later as well as sending the Score file to Sann to see if his upload plan works (rather than manually entering it).

Another awesome weekend, thanks to all, especially the organisors + reserve team. Do so love the Pick n Mix, and not just because we won :p There seems to be a much more interesting spread of races than the usual, and gave me a chance to play Chorfs for just 3 games. Man I dislike chorfs! :P

All of my opponents played in the best of spirits (even Heff when his team evapourated!) and this for me is what BB is all about. Bring on next time...no dipping out Darkson!

Thanks to all.. Great weekend.. Especially the heckling.. Much entertainment throwing bombs, stabbing side steps and fouling dwarfs on - 1 for the kill! .. Literally everything and the kitchen sink, but never mind!

I had a great weekend. Many thanks to team mates Wobert and Cornish, to Darkson and the admin team, and of course to all my opponents. Congrats Ceetee on the win. Thanks also to Knightly for showing considerable restraint and good humour as his Amazons gifted me a victory with consistently bad dice during our Round 5 match up!!

What a a wonderful weekend of blood bowl with team Cider! I thoroughly enjoyed myself even though I only won one game, letting my team down terribly. We all agreed we were there for the fun, not the win though but Dan did really well (most touchdowns) congratulations to him and a big thank you for his his superb captaining skills.

Thank you to all my appointments for some great blood bowl games, I laughed my way through all of them apart from my first vs Fern where my rat ogre failed everything he did and helped her to achieve a crushing victory (I got so annoyed at it I benched him for the last few turns!). Fern's new trousers were the highlight of the weekend, I havn't seen flares that huge since I was 9 years old, classic.

Lastly, I want to add my appreciation for Darkson and Moodygit for another great tournament and for ensuring the venue was nice and warm all weekend as they know my old, crippled body can't take the cold. Cheers guys.

Upload done and button pressed - I did it in the quickest way I could find, which means that the race listed next to the tournament is the Sunday's race, rather than saying "multiple races". This doesn't affect anything to do with rankings etc, so hope it's OK with everyone!

My Vamps are above 150 now, but pesky Hawk and Zara mean that my pro elves are 0.04 below! Boo!

Ok finally get online - Many thanks to Darkson and my impromptu Cheer leaders against Eski - just added to a crazy match, thanks to all my opponents for 6 great games, and my team mates for the laughs in between,

Many thanks also to Itchen for lending me an orc team that obviously wanted to impress their owner by doing no wrong in the game against him
although he got his own back by easily beating me into second place for the stunty cup damn him :D
