Waterbowl 2012 - 18/19 February - Stockport

Post by Leipziger »

It gives me great pleasure to say that the 8th Waterbowl (7th weekender) will be taking place on the 18th and 19th February 2012 at the Northwest Gaming Centre :D

You can expect the usual array of prizes (for achievements great and small ;)), great players, another legacy team (remember last year, it wasn't won by a Waterbowler ;)) and a social. Not to mention the fact that the Waterbowl is the spiritual home of the Stunty Cup. And there is the chance to be a part of musical history! Yes, there will be another waterbowl CD. In a break from previous years, there will be 20 spots available on the CD this year. First 20 to pay get a spot.


Cost
The price will be £20 (NAF) or £25 (Non-NAF, but includes NAF membership)

Send your payments via paypal to waterbowl@hotmail.co.uk Please send the money as 'gift'.

The Watermonkey Discount
Watermonkey will still be going strong, with knobs on. In addition to the joint WB/MB trophy, there is a £5 discount for signing up to Monkeybowl 2012 (March 31st/April 1st) and Waterbowl 2012 at the same time.

Joint Watermonkey payments are £25. That’s rather than £10 (MB) + £20 (WB) i.e. £30.

In a change to the normal protocol if any team members would like to be Watermonkeys, the team captain should send payment to Brendan, not to me i.e. by PayPal to brendanspencelayh@yahoo.co.uk

Please indicate which members of the team are paying as Watermonkeys. Costs per team would be as follows:

*No Watermonkeys - £40
*1 Watermonkey - £55
*2 Watermonkeys - £70
*3 Watermonkeys - £85
*4 Watermonkeys - £100

Beat Brendan - erm, Barney
As Brendan's unbelieveable undefeated run ended last year, it is time to move on from that. This year, our undisputed king of the stunties, Barney the Lurker is being placed in the crosshairs. If you are the first person to beat Barney using stunties, then there will be a prize for you :D

Before I commit to actually coming this year, how easy is Stockport to get to from Manc Airport?
Looks like it should be fairly straightforward.
Also, assuming I did come, would someone local be willing to give me a sofa to kip on (saving me a wodge of cash) or is there a travel lodge in the environs?

Hey Dave
Getting to the airport is pretty easy. Depending on the flight time, I might even be able to drive you there after.

We can certainly get you a sofa, I'd have thought :)

Right.
If there's a sofa for me, I'm in.
Payment sent.
(looking at flights, I'd probably be needing a sofa spot for the sunday and leave first thing monday AM for a flight at 5 to ten. Brekkie at the airport.)

Paid and will try to make it a little group event for my local tabletop league. Steen (Drink) who I had with me to Star Bowl was all for it ;)

Norse Raiding party! ooooh, can I play?
(though I won't be playing Norse. ). Have short list for CD entry.

Wonder if Kåre and I shouldn't inject some Scandinavianism onto the disc - Sweden has loads of cool music, Denmark has Volbeat...)
Wish I could justify the travel costs of a Watermonkey :(

Oh, and will there be a Legacy team? I'll add a whatever.

To bad that you don't live near Malmø and Copenhagen airport, we normally got lovely cheap flights from their to Manchester and London with easyJet :) oO(Played 7 UK tournaments untill now this year *raw*)

I was actually thinking about something silly, like; "We Are Danish Dynamite" (a football EM song from 1984) :D But i like the idea with Volbeat and something like "Sad Man's Tongue" oO(A personal favorit of mine)
