Checked the area and all the cheap stuff seems to have gone. Will have another look.

EDIT: Got one. Reserved a pay on arrival place. It's a twin room if anyone needs a spare bed.

Info re the WB Saturday night:

Element Games will stay open until 2am (serving alcohol to 1am) on the Saturday night.
Like last year, there will be a chance to play more boardgames & hang out for those that fancy it.
Should you (& your opponent ofc) want to play your Rd 4 on the Saturday night rather than the Sunday morning you are more than welcome to as I'll be sticking around and can input the results.

If you've not yet made your choice for the pizza/beer deal (& paid ofc) then please do :)

If you've not seen the offer it's:

Saturday Night Social @ Waterbowl 2018

£10 Pizza & Beer Deal

£10 gets you a large Dominos Pizza and a drink from the bar.

Pizza options are as follows:
Standard - Cheese & Tomato
Hawaiian - Pineapple & Ham
Pepperoni - Double Pepperoni
BBQ - BBQ Sauce, Chicken, Ground Beef
Spicy - Jalapeños & Tandoori Chicken
Veggie - Peppers & Sweetcorn

Orders need to be in by the end of Tuesday February 13th. Send your payments via PayPal to waterbowl@hotmail.co.uk

Use the 'Friends & Family' option so there are no charges.

Drinks from the bar include soft drinks, selected lager, and single shots + mixers. Pay £1 extra at the bar to have any drink.

I'll order the pizzas to come for 7pm.

Obviously this offer isn't compulsory and you are more than welcome to bob out and get your own tea or to order in from another takeaway.

A few ideas on how you could paint up your Sizzler figure.

These are from Nippy & Deeferdan.

- on a different note, keep those pizza/beer deal orders coming.
The offer closes on the 13th Feb.

The very nice chaps at Iron Golems have put their prizes in the post for us. There's some
nice figs in there including some of the flings from the team they're doing with Two Drunk Fling. Only a handful of people have had chance to get their hands on these little dudes so far.

There's also some other lovely figs from them for the prize pot too.

For anyone around on the Friday night pre-WB (16th Feb) a bunch of us will be at this place. It's a short walk from the NWGC.

- pizza/beer deal closes on Tuesday Feb 13th so please do get your orders in if you haven't already.

- before round 1 get your opponent to check your roster to ensure it fits the rulespack requirements (tv110 + whichever skill set you're taking. Remember, if you're taking star players, it's 11 normal players then stars)

- if you & your opponent want to play your round 4 game on Saturday you may do this and then come in for Rd 5 on the Sunday. This is entirely optional & both coaches obviously must agree.

- on the Sunday lunchtime I have arranged for some Subway platters to be delivered.

Paid.

In other news, it’s my first over-nighter tournament (I’ve got a note from my mum, plus 10p to call her and let her know I’ve arrived safely). I’m guessing folks will bring games for the evening but, if anyone’s taking requests, I’m keen to learn how to play Shadespire, for those who have it.

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