I can only speak for myself, but I've not had the best experiences in large, multi-system environments where Blood Bowl is the runt of the litter. Tickets for these are £40, I'm picturing crap hot dog lunches for £10, no reasonably priced hotel rooms anywhere near the venue, BB off in a corner somewhere but you're still deafened as 200 40 k nerds do whatever it is they do, BB ignored by the organisation team because they're not part of whatever the super-major scoring system is and we use NAF rankings, too big / too small tables because of tape measures... etc. Now, that might all be nonsense and these events are nothing like that, but I'm just explaining why I've not thought about coming yet to see if my perception can be helpful.

Paul - do you think a bit of a marketing drive would be useful? I reckon a second weekend in January tournament in Nottingham could be a really successful thing. Kick the year off right, central location, lots of local nerds and a sniff of Bugmans. Sounds great.

So why should I come? What do I get for my £40 - why are my above concerns a nonsense? What's special about this, for the non-Warhammer nerd? I wonder if you targeted just one or two of the dates in the calendar and made them 'special' somehow above being in a big, full room that costs a lot of money, you might get the show on the road over time?

Just rambling rubbish in a lunch break, disregard if silly.
