We haven't seen any numbers yet, but looks like it could be 50 or so given all the interest.

Was hoping I could claim Monkeybowl (46) was the biggest non-major UK tourney in 2008, but it's cool if Spiky get more :wink:

Who's taking bets this year? Del's not fooling me with this "I don't know the rules" malarky. :wink:

Due to a drop out we now have a space in the car. We will be travelling down to Reading from Sunderland today and leaving at 1pm. Does anyone need a lift? Just chuck in some petrol money. Short notice I know, but call me on 07968 897643 if you need a lift.

Cheers Ian

Sadly, I was never able to confirm due to work rearing up and other family type events.

I hope all have a good weekend, good luck!

Thanks everyone for a great weekend, especially Lycos for being the host with the most!

Spiky champ for 08 is Wilzif - well played mate. Butchered me in the final with some serious Mighty Blow goodness :( :wink:

Lycos 3rd, Piggy 4th...

Great weekend, really enjoyed it ( :roll: :D )

Chuffed to have won it, had six very good games with the undead against great coaches.

Good final against Pippy, as the man said mighty blow played a key role in it (mmmm - 24 casualties).

Thanks to the organiser and my opponents. And sorry for some of my dice :wink:

Congrats Wilf! Really pleased with my Draw with you now! (Although that was my luckiest game I've ever had)

2-3-1 Record with my first ever games at Skaven not to bad.

Thanks to the Spikey team!
