Well done Sir stick (had a quid on you) if only everyone else had pushed you as hard as me..... :wink:

Well done to all the winners, even :puke: Gazza :puke: on his stunty cup victory (stunty team with 5 St5 players ???? and they say skinks are broken!!)

Had 7 great games (W1 D2 L4) all against really good opponents, special mention to Finn who only had 3 players left at the end of our match !!

Thanks to Lee and all the organisers, great weekend, same again next year ? (maybe a different penalty system, altho' it wont bother me!!)

Thanks for a fun weekend to all. I have learned a valuable lesson: I am really bad with halflings! :(

Amazingly, I am still considering taking them to the NAF Champ.

I had 7 amusing games. And thanks to DJQ for his look of sympathy in the last game in which I became the one-meister.

Cheers again to all for a fun couple of days of games (and to Ronnie of the random manlovin'!). :o

Enjoyed this, thanks to all seven guys I played and big thanks to Lee for organising something different, great tourney. Must mention the Gonk Machine's work (didn't catch his real name, haha), did a superb job on the prizes as well. And of course congratulations to Stick, well done big man!

By the way, think I left a pair of shoes in the Day Inn at the Watford Gap services, does anyone by any chance pass there for work or live nearby? Please please PM if you can help cause they don't answer their phone!

Thanks to everyone for a fun couple of days!
My first 2-day tournament, 6 close games that went down to the last turn, and proof for me that chaos are a bit shit.
I'm pretty sure I took more casualties over the weekend that I caused - special mention to Glowworm for leaving me with 4 on the pitch by the end ;) with his goblins :oops:. My minotaur was turned into post-tournament burgers (after causing a single casualty, in game 7...).
And big thanks to Lee and the 'Vault team for putting on a great weekend.

Firstly,

Thanks to everyone who came to this First VaultCon (World Cup Style) Blood Bowl Tournament. It was all of you that made running this event fairly easy (Other than a couple of hiccups caused by me :)).

I got asked about who caused the most CAS and scored the most TD a couple of times yesterday but as it wasn't something I was tracking I couldn't tell. I have now done my homework and the complete list of who scored and who CASed is below.

Thanks again and hope to see you all next year for another shot at running a KO tournament or in September for VaultBowl (Run by TheGamesVault rather than me ;)) for something a little more sensible.

We are just trying to put together an anonymous questionnaire so you can provide constructive criticism without me seeding you into a special HELL Group next year (Besters, Stick, Mattwhile and you) :D) If you are happy to run the risk with me then please post any feedback you have here or drop me a PM.

Thanks

Lee

As expected we made the local newspapers with the Con.

Did Don_Vito do something that we arent aware of at the convention?

yeah a rellay good weekend lee, thanks a bunch to all who helped run, and all who i played.

A special mention to Craig, who put me through the most grueling game of my life a nice 3.5 hour slobberknocker, and then a penalty shoot out i wont bring up :(

and another too Antipixi, for learning the worst way to add up to 50, by rolling that many ones and adding them up!!!!!

And Don_Vito looking very fine in the news there, although the headline leads to a few questions best left to the old bill :)

well done tho lee for a guddun!

I have just finished putting the results into the NAF site but have a sinking feeling that I have bodged it somewhere because all the new NAF sigunps seem to have the same rating (150) regardless of how they performed, I am PM'ing for confirmation now.

Not sure what you mean about "Final Points" KO competitions don't use points ;) If you want I can try and run all the matches through my points system to see who would have won if it was a swiss competition? The question is, how upset would it make people ;)?

EDIT: Seems everyones ranking has updated now, maybe it just took a few minutes to update :D Let me know about the points.

btw the final score was 1 - 0 to Stick not 3 - 0, that was the Cas numbers.

Can that be changed on the NAF site? minor point I know!
