From this data can we see if a stunty team has won a tourney? And the field they competed against to do it?

TOs! You do not need multiple copies of rosters. It's a waste of paper.

I'm pretty certain I saw in the Stalkerbook Stunty Cup group that a US event was a Stunty team, but for the life of me I can't remember who.

You might have misunderstood that post, as a number of people asked me about it. It was a team tournament and the halfling coach was just the bottom-tier representative of the winning squad. He didn't even win the stunty cup.

If we're talking about ever, I noticed ogres winning a couple different Canadian tournaments back when they were part of our series.

Stoopid brain woke me up at 4am as I have a work interview, so good a time as any to have a look into this.

According to the database here: https://public.tableau.com/views/NAFTou ... _count=yes

Stunty teams have won 34 tournaments (but the records don't go back that many years, as the functionality hasn't been there).

Of those, over half have been team tournaments, multiple races, or small tournaments (<10 players). And there's one "pure stunty" in there - tish.

That leaves 16 that someone who was inclined could look into and see whether there were any mitigating factors, or whether these are the true legends of the stunty world!

Spreadsheet attached with the list.

I came second on Kuei-jin's Totenbowl win. 3 matches, luck of the draw and "kills" as 1st tiebreaker - clean win otherwise

Inspired me to look at "number of rounds" - of these, only Pow Town 2017 was a 6 round non team tournament of substantial size.

Cool stuff, our local NAF rep pointed me to this post. If the Kayfabeshire Stampede get glued and painted in time then they will be making a return to Pow-Town 2019! Are they legends or just a flash in the pan? We will know in a couple of months!
