Re: Welsh Open VIII 28 & 29 Jan 2017
Great tournament, managed to foul with Lord Borak so a win in my book. Er, let's just gloss over the actual results, no one needs to see those.
Thanks to all for putting up with me getting all up in your faces. I hope the 200 photos and 3.5 hours of footage that you can all enjoy will be worth the inconvenience!
In the process of uploading the cheeky gigabyte or so of pictures as we speak. Just a reminder that all of the videos taken today can be found on the NAF Wales brand new YouTube page, here: https://youtube.com/channel/UCsue48MDJa86mY_LpR-meIQ
Thanks to the opponents that played my frankly ridiculous Chaos team while I was standing in. Prehensile Tail + Diving Tackle on a Chaos Warrior, totally winning combination. even if no bugger actually ever tried to dodge... (except one rotten wood elf that made the 5+, grumblerumble)
Lastly, a shout out to the Welsh for running it all, ran smoother than a bowling ball with a sharp razor. Great job gents, diolch yn fawr!

Top tournament as always, cheers Hawca and everyone else involved.
And apologies to Dreamscreator and Mad for some BS Dwarf passing play to pull off T16 TD's to turn defeats into unlikely draws!

Thanks to the organizers for another great event. Also thank to my opponents for 6 tight and enjoyable matches. Always good to avoid the silly dicings, either way. And I got to play 4 Eurobowl-captains in my first four matches!
Saddest moment: When my Long beard in T16 succesfully picks up the ball, long bombs the ball to the endzone, only for the hobgoblin to fail the catch.
Also special mention to Cornish for that nice 3die uphill murder of my ball carrier hobbo

Thanks to everybody for another great weekend.
Probably best the Stunty Cup photo went missing, it'd only just upset Gloworm...

Thanks Hawca and DaPiranha for a great tournament, and also to my opponents for six fun and memorable games. Straume I think you nearly gave me a heart attack after my desperate punt on turn 16 (no rerolls, a chaos dwarf picks up the ball on the halfway line, then makes a long bomb to the endzone only for a hobgoblin to drop it! I would like to apologise to the residents of Newport for the screams). Thanks also to Twelfman for capturing such nice photos of the teams - there were many beautiful teams on the tables this weekend which really gave the game an extra dimension. And finally of course congratulations to Itchen, the Norse rule
