Thanks to all for a great tournament, the highlight as usual being the all you can eat Chinese meal and I suspect a one time event only the Oompa Loompa's!

Thanks for the wooden spoon guys.. I will remain standing on chairs rolling dice until my game improves.. Thanks to Mike and the guys for showing us a great dungeon ball match. It was a lot of fun but an experience I don't want to end up playing that often.. Great to meet a few new players as well as the regulars. Hope to catch some of u at the Bristol Tournament in July when Im next available for a weekend...

Well done Simon and crew, top notch as always.

But, where was the Stunty Cup award? Not interested in running one unless you win it Simon? :wink: :lol:

yes, thank you simon.

Was a very enjoyable weekend. Had 6 great games with stunties (I want to take a stunty team to GT now!)

Shame I didnt get the spoon - moraly I got it though. Total record 0/0/6.

I will take credit for 2 ogre deaths over the entire weekend - from goblins no less!!!

Got home on the Sunday, and had to sort the kitchen, and then today had no electric. :roll:

Results have been emailed to Joe, so I'm sure they'll be up soon (though if I'd known how bad my weekend was going to be, I'd have made it non-NAF :wink: :lol: ).

Re: Stunty cup - if I'd known as many stunty teams were turning up as did, I'd have tried to sort something - normally it's an ARBBLer and maybe +1, so I didn't give it to much thought this year.
That said, 11th of 38 with halflings in your first tourney is damn good, so I'll talk to Moody and Belcher and see if we can knock something up.

I'll hopefully get a cop of the results up tonight, maybe tomorrow (depending on whether the better half has another list of jobs for me!).

As always, if there are any comments on the rules, let me know so we can improve for next year. I was pleased to see that there was a wider spread of races this year, and that it wasn't just the usual races near the top. Maybe Skaven (and Halflings!) need a nerf?

Thanks Everyone!

I honestly can't believe I won my first NAF ranked tourney!

Thanks Simon and the rest of the Andover group for a great event.

Don't know if I'll make it next year..... don't want to do a Ceetee :wink:
