Sorry for the delay, life is complicated. The results have been sent off to the NAF and everyones rankings will be adjusted (sorry Hawca).

Thanks for everyone who attended, SFisher91 for help running it, Hawca for the advice and my opponents for some great games.

See you next year!
You did a great job, looking forward to next year already

very enjoyable weekend, did note only 5 teams out of 24 made it to double figures on TD's (2 D/E, 1 W/E & 2 Skaven) and then not by much!! Got to be one of the closest tournaments Ive been to. It was certainly one of the most enjoyable..

Ten points off the top is a gutter. Shoulda, coulda done better....

Nice to meet some new faces that I hope to bump into again in May.

Thanks guys. As Eski could attest the first match was very much a case of getting a feel for TT again (and learning to not knock the bleedin' pitch over!), but by Day 2 I felt more at home and able to play somewhat tactically.

And by "tactically" I mean knocking players down and kicking them in the head. ;)

Just like to say that I really enjoyed The Welsh Open tourney...

Ok my overall performance could have been better lol but I met some really nice guys, the food was nice, the event was well run,
the venue was good and the games were really enjoyable (even the ones that didnt go the way of the skaven lol).

Thank you, Well worth the travel and looking forward to next year.

It does seem to take a lot longer for results to appear if a member of NAF staff isn't at the tourney. Just an observation.

Hi Dobby

Actually it doesn't need to be updated before this weekend.

The database processes all the info by order of date. So if Waterbowl results went in before Welsh Open results, it wouldn't be a problem.

Cheers
