Lovely bloke, but universally booed by a room of 160 people!

Had a great weekend, thanks to Joe, Paul and the other organisers, and also to my opponents.

Not only did I break my run of wooden spoons (thanks cunningstunt!) but I ended as the tournaments highest placed Khemri coach!

Bring on next year...

Top marks for innovation though mate, spectacular idea, painting and "finishing touch"!

Thinking about it, had you just gotten mega drunk and actually vomited you'd have had the same smell and 160x sympathy votes ;)

Thanks so much to all the tournament guys... what a well run and generally great tournament.

I finished happy as my Ogres avoided any total kickings..and managed to draw four games along the way.

Every person I played was great, some really sporting and funny people.

Roll on next year.

Just rolling homewards now.
Fantastic weekend with only one small irritation (best forgotten frankly. Clash of personalities.)
Slightly gutted I ballsed up my last turn vs Pippy but delighted with my 3-1-2 my first time with Skaven.
Insane extremes of luck good and bad for me (and my opponents) all the way made for some interesting games...especially against Buggrit. Sorry mate! That will go down as one of the oddest games I've played.
Big thanks to my first opponent Verbal for preventing me making a daft error. Big sportsmanship. Glad he finished with a decent record too.

Great seeing so many old friends and making some new. Thanks to all the organisers. See you next year...when I shall be back playing a tier 3 race. Hail HALFLING.

Superb weekend - excellent organisation throughout. I had my best NAF set of results (1-3-2), and some fantastic games (including purdindas one-turning me with his woodies on turn 16 to equalise!).

Venue was great again bar the minor air-con malfunction on Saturday pm. Posting the draw online was a great idea - saved crowding round sheets of paper stuck on the walls. All the freebies were great and I enjoyed the duel entries - hopefully there will be more next year.

Congratulations to all the winners and a very big pat on the back to the organising team.

Fabulous weekend of geeking - had a great time as ever. Thanks to all my opponents, including Deetee (in our first NAF Tee - off), and then was good enough to drive me home again :oops:

Great work on the event, couldn't fault it and grats to the Sizzler!

Now, who'll paint Dave first?

Just to echo the sentiments above, thanks to Joe and Paul and everyone else for running such an excellent tournament.
We had an absolute blast all weekend and are already looking forward to next year. :D

I just want to offer my gratitude to Phil, Paul, Jim and Joe (and any others I may have missed out) for organising and running this event so excellently and smoothly. Well worth the money spent!

Well done to the all the tournament winners across the categories who competed amongst a large number of excellent players from various locations.

The only negative was the fake(?) vomit smell from that Nurgle team which unfortunately was made worse by people opening doors to air the main hall out, which nullified the air-con and heated the room, making the odour worse! A novelty idea that went rather wrong there :puke:

Thanks to my opponents Dan, Francois, Richard, Anna, Magnus and Chris who all played very different games and were humourous and friendly opponents to play with.

This was my first NAFC and I was really impressed by the venue and organisation, from the great catering, to the match scheduling and helpful information. It all ran really smoothly and this only adds to the good atmosphere and enjoyment for all; I am sure everyone felt really well looked after.

If next year's NAFC promises to be only half as good as this year then I will definitely sign up. Bravo! :D

Maybe I'm being stupid, but why did CeeTee get best of the rest and not MattRobson? Looking at the result sheet Matt has more TDs and Cas and a better difference in both...

Sorry Chris! I'm very happy to be corrected. :)

The tiebreaker was not TD/CAS based but Strength of Schedule.
