I ended up entering all the results by hand, so I don't recommend that!
Sann entered the results for the P'n'M last year, as he thought he had a way to get them to auto-upload. It didn't work, but he did find a way to do it that took slightly less time than my fully manual way.
Wouldn't help for this. We did them all as one race, then changed half. I *might* try and find a better solution... No promises.

As an aside, this has to be the fastest-selling tournament ever!

What I'm worried about is what is in those races.

Would you prefer a Pro Elf team with all the positionals, or a Dwarf team made up of long beards and a single runner?

I think it sold out so fast (3.5 days) due to the awesome TO whoever that is :D

The teams are all made and I'll post them nearer the time for all to see.

Come on . . . you can't trust me to make 24 perfectly sensible teams to play? Like I would ever play something stupid like a Vampire free Vampire team or Underworld with 5 Dirty Trick cards? No wait . . . . .

To rest those worried minds, there were a few simple rules I followed when making the teams . . .

1. All teams have a minimum of one of each of the available positionals
2. All teams have a minimum of 2 rerolls (one team breaks this rule)
3. Most teams have 12 players, a few (mostly the expensive elfy ones) have 11 and stunty teams have more

They are all sensible - honestly!

You'll all get chance to see the roster before game 1 . . . . . what you might not get chance to see are the rosters between games as the skills get added. So when you pick a team there may be the odd surprise on there waiting for you . . . .

Now lets forget about the Chimera Cup, it's not until October people! Foul Bowl is way more exciting because its tomorrow!!!!!!!!

I am still torn between 2 teams . . . . . .
