Alpha Games Winter Bowl 2023 Pairs Tournament 14/1/23 - Nippylongskar/Besters win pairs - Nippylongskar wins individual

I renewed online in June - was very quick to do but the 2022 gift isn't available on the NAF site for selection yet. Should still get the gift at some point though.

[MisterBrock]

Ah no worries, will sort tickets Wednesday when I get paid. Thanks

[Onyersix]

I've been in touch with NAF reps, and will be going to a tournament in Swindon where I'll be picking up my renewal gifts.
I'm allowed to pick up gifts for others based this way who have renewed online. If anyone is interested they can DM me so we can arrange details.

Got 2 more tickets for MisterBrock and if "Not yet Naf" buddy, let's call him Lloyd.

Also, another "Not yet Naf" got a ticket today and will be my pair. Let's call him Phil for now.

Hi there, just a quick one for clarification. My friend was querying this:

"Each coach within pairs must take a different team race (e.g. you can’t have 2 Undead teams in the same pair)."

Does this mean you can't take 2 undead themed teams in a pair, e.g. 'Shambling Undead' and 'Necromantic Horror', or just not 2 'Shambling Undead' teams in a pair?

I'm presuming the latter but just wanted to be sure as we're contemplating Chaos Chosen and Chaos Renegades. Thanks.

Hi - yea I probably should have phrased more carefully. It would mean you couldn’t field 2 Shambling Undead teams in a pair rather than any race that would be considered undead. So I’m your case Chaos Chosen and Chaos Renegades would be fine as a pair.

Only 8 tickets left on the website - so if you plan on coming then do purchase your tickets as soon as. I’m not able to hold tickets back!

Thanks for clarifying. We have sorted our tickets, NAF name MagicDave, purchased them for us to be safe. He commented above on this thread about it.

My at the time 'not yet NAF' friend who I am pairing with is now NAF official and his NAF name is AngryWarhol. My NAF name is MisterBrock.

Really looking forward to it! Thanks

Hello, Myself ( Vacant) and Onyersix will be a pair for the tournament.

Thank you!!

[PeteW]

What happens if you and your opponent have brought the same star?

[PeteW]

Oh. Just tried to buy tickets, but looks like it is sold out.

There was a rush on tickets at one point - there was 8 left and then next next I checked they had gone before I got the chance to let people know they were almost gone.

I am speaking to the shop about whether we can get some more space - but if they can it will probably be only 4 more tickets (2 pairs). I will confirm when I know

[PeteW]

Thanks mate!

Hi there

Any update on numbers for this? This would be my preference... but if it is full then I need to start planning for a different tournament in January.

Thanks!

Peter

Just checked with the shop and they should be giving me an answer tomorrow, so will let you know then.

I've managed to double book myself so I'm going to pull out. Don't worry about the entry fee - it's a bit late to faff with refunds (even if that were an option).

I'm sure you'll fill the slot - have a good one and I'll be back later in the year.
