Get you!!!..... a +23.71 rise! Gratz! Bring on Dungeonbowl in 2 weeks - I can feel the trophy coming home to Hartlepool.

Woot, a rise of +4.78 after the Waterbowl, bringing me to a whopping 112.7. Top tables here I come.

Still the worst Nurgle coach in the world, though.

A really big thanks to all the people who organised the event, and for showing us just why BB is the best game in the world. Thanks as well to my opponents for six great games.

I'll definitely be back next year, with a new team and a new car bumper.

Two people that I forgot to thank:

Brad for providing us with a fantastic cd cover and label

Rob (Polarbear) for giving up luchbreaks to print and cut the covers and fill the cases.

There's no way Pippy should have got over 4 pts for beating me.
I'm only worth 2 and a half.
Max.

P.S. Thanks for sorting the ratings so fast. Although by the sounds of it you had a very personal reason for doing it...

yeah it did make it less of a chore! Had the prez on my case too so I thought I'd better not delay

What a great tourney! Difficult to imagine a better venue. Met some new faces and got drunk with some old ones (Fri and Sat

). The CD is awesome as ever, as were all the cool and original prizes.

The Brokeback Mountain tribute on Saturday night (Wightlord/Tritex: named and shamed) put me off my curry somewhat

but apart from that - a great event all round.

Obviously chuffed with how it went personally. I had a number of close games (vs. JRooney, Valen, Wightlord) which ended up my way. Guess I got the breaks - what you need to win tourneys I suppose.

Looking forward to seeing many of you at Monkeybowl in April!

...shame i had a bad game vs you- not really at my best. In the end i was lucky it wasn't 3-0. First coach (barring my Nemesis) to score more than 1 past me in 7 months. Ridiculously good coach my friend...

Next time I meet that Mino ms. stick, it's getting humped...

In that game my armour and injury rolls were the deciding factor - two dead black orcs, a dead thrower and a dead blitzer at half time was always going to be practically impossible to come back from. Don't think there's much anyone could've done.

Look forward to the rematch in Germany

Nippy Longskar. The Krox had DT too - I was forced to KO him to get rid of him

I must say, having seen them with my own eyes, the photos really cant get the quality of both teams. Lauth's Chaos were quite superb and the detail and work on Mark's Lizards remarkable. Both deserve equal praise.
