Bet you've had that joke for at least a month, waiting for this thread to be started...
My hope (for his sake) was that the 24h had ruined him.....

Sadly I then noted it was posted Friday. ;)

Everyone that's expressed an interest is added to the list.

Pact Tier 2?

Actually above the HE/PE AG4 teams...

That's worse than WISB!

Ken is added to the list; we love a bit of experience!

In terms of teams and tiers; I guess if you're going to run a tournament that handicaps races in this manner, there is no universally accepted 'correct' list and way of doing things. This is especially true when you inject gimmicks like every skill is a double into the mixer, it's not like there is a wealth of data on the matter to call upon and back up gut feelings (like three blocking Big Guys will be somewhat handy and boosts Pact a fair bit). There will always be debate, and every coach that attends will no doubt have studied the list and found what he considers to be best value in that particular system. If you think (Tiamo) that Dodge-less, Wrestle-less, other G / A- less Pro and High Elves are going to be on devastating form over the weekend, I've no doubt your prospective partner will delight in you bring home the points for your team! All I can say is that we gave the skills plenty of thought and sought the considered opinion of people like Jim, Joe and Brendan before we pushed go, and we hope it'll work out fine. If it doesn't; feel free to say I told you so. ;)

Well, we all know how badly elves dominated the star bowl dont we? Those poor ole pact had a rough time against the point and click elfswarm.

Agility access is a double for them.... so pact would potentially be av8 amazons and block big guys :)

This looks like a great event run by a great pair - only problem is the timing, might be a bit close in to the world cup for me. I'll be sad if I cant go though. Bonkers ruleset is too crazy to tellif its breakable :D

could be making this, if only because I am in Oz when the WC is on. Its one thing having relatives on the other side of the world. Quite another when they get married during what is due to be the biggest BB event to date. At least I'll have a tan to lose in...

With the Goblins. Pure doubles for them sounds fun! Plus I want to see if Ironjaw will immediately leave if he gets paired with me while I'm using them :lol:
Just to put yours and everyone else's mind at rest Duncan, yes, I would.
