ARBBL Pick'n'Mix, Andover, 1st/2nd Nov 2014

Well done everyone. I really like this format of changing teams, it brings in variety. Cheers for going through the hassle, Darkson.

[DeeTee]

Awesome tourney. Works really well as a team event or singles so I'd be happy to see it return in either format.

Congrats to all the winners and thanks to my opponents for 6 fun games.

Andy beat me six nil Simon on game four. I blame women, sccreaming kids waking me up after four hours sleep and his dice. Also the fact that it was possibly the worst game I have ever had dice wise. It was hilarious. Trampoline trap knocks his bc into the crowd. Ball comes back to original spot and lands on his lineman who catches and is exactly six squares away. It only got better from there

[Rubick]

Grats Itchen, well done!

[Itchen Masack]

Cheers Rubick It's only cause there were no dwarves there to ruin my day. Oh and Besters rolled a perfectly timed snake eyes when he had me dominated!
Great tourney and I echo Lunchmoney's comment that the 2 team format is a wonderful thing. Adds a lot to an event imho and I hope others copy the format.

I had 5 really close tight matches over the weekend and looked like losing in each and every one of them but somehow managed to wangle the win. The only
match I was favourite was the 6th vs canteloup where my dice were golden and his were absolute arse. Great fun though, he does add a generous slice of
humour to the game If only he would get rid of those crappy black dice, he might have won the tourney lol

Great times, thanks to all. Kudos to Besters for 3-0-0 with Flings and 0 TD's conceeded

[Rubick]

Is Jim going to go 6-0-0 with flings at his next tournie? sad I missed it.

[speedingbullet]

Great format and many thanks to everyone for making it an excellent weekend, particularly my opponents and of course Darkson for organising

[besters]

good tournament as all ARBBL tournaments have been, can't believe the fling's did better than the woodies.

congratulations to itchen on a well deserved win!

[radster]

Huge thanks to Darkson and the rest of the ARBBL guys for organising this. Fantastic weekend, format was brilliant, and look forward to seeing many of you next year and over the coming months. Cheers.

[Blocknroll]

it was good, agreed, would it have worked as pairs? just a thought, no real opinion on that side of things as didnt do the team part last year, always enjoy the andover tourneys, cheers

[Darkson]

Cheers gents. Probably won't be running it next year, due to the World Cup and work scheduling, but will look at briniging it back in 2016.

Block - pairs would have worked, but given the lack of confirmed numbers until a couple of weeks before hand I had to take the option that was most likely to work.

[Blocknroll]

fair was good, and yes next year will be interesting this time of year and even in the summer to see what happens re numbers etc, hard to predict!

[Darkson]

Oh, and before the inevitable question - no, the results haven't been put on the NAF site yet, I'm waiting for the new sign-ups to be completed so I can add all the results in one go.

[ceetee]

Great tourney as ever, shame to read that it won't be here next year.

Some really enjoyable games, especially playing Stig for the first time ever despite meeting at tourneys since 2006

I may well be using Al's innovative Elf defence for years to come

Grats to the winners and looking forward to the P+M's return.

Roll on 2016...
