Golden Gauntlet 2018/19

GGUK 2018/19 is here!

Rules:

All UK NAF coaches are eligible to score GGUK points at every UK NAF tournament which qualifies to award a NAF trophy as per NAF guidelines. This does not include BB variants such as Sevens.

From the 2017 updated sanctioning guidelines:

NAF Trophies may be awarded to the winner of any sanctioned tournament so long as it meets minimum attendance requirement... [if it has] 4 rounds or more, 12 coaches are required; if it has 3 rounds or fewer, 24 coaches are required.


Golden Gauntlet points are scored as per the table below. The intention is to award pure gaming results but also other aspects of the wider hobby which are traditionally recognised at tournaments with prizes. There is no limit to the number of tournaments coaches can score in.

Coaches who score for their final placing and for Most Touchdowns or Most Casualties at a single tournament will only register a single score, whichever is higher e.g. a player who finished 18th at a 100+ event (8 points) and also won Most Touchdowns (10 points) will score 10 points only.

Best Painted Duel will be awarded at the NAF Championship only

Point system is on second tab of scores spreadsheet

In the event of tied total scores, the coach with the highest tournament placing(s) will be placed highest.

Current standings can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/ ... edit#gid=0

Hopefully all tournaments will recognise Best Painted, Stunty Cup, Most Touchdowns and Most Casualties in some way. No prize, trophy or certificate is necessary. Even if it’s no more than lip service here on TFF. To assist with this please can TOs remember to post a final table as well as a short run down of awards after the event. In the event that tournament info is not made available by the TO no points will be awarded.

The highest points scorer at the end of the year will be awarded the Golden Gauntlet trophy at NAFC 2019.

Previous Winners:
2018 KFoged
2017 Besters
2016 Pipey

Quick one - forgive me for a correction re the winner in 2016. That wasn't Geggster but some guy called Pipey :D

Also, can you confirm that it is only Bloodbowl events that qualify for this, not NAF trophy qualifying 7's, beachbowl, streetball, etc.

Just to let you know, the sheet is currently standing at blank. Didn't knowing this is on purpose (not updated post NAFC and AWM) or there has been a glitch.

This is correct. I update the standings on company time ;)

NAFC is in the last set of standings - it's the end of the GG season

Updated with BBGT and Granite results. WOBBL results still pending.

DanDavies takes over the reins from Hawk and Rubick.

Updated with WOBBL results - Brighton Block to follow.

The reigning champ, Kfoged, makes a solid start to the defence of his title but with no larger tournaments and no-one attending two yet, DanDavies continues to lead the way.

I got Most TD at the BBGT as well as finishing 7th - I think that should take me up to 19 points?
