Spike! Magazine 2012: September 29-30: Surrey, B.C., Canada

Oh you're totally still in it man. Keep it up!

I did just miss the final on a tie breaker (we where two with 4/1/0 and one with 5/0/0), but got the 3th prize with 5/1/0 (TD score 10-0) after winning game 6. That makes me 11/1/0 (TD score 24-4) in majors this year

Cya in Vancouver,

KFoged

That is still a crazy record in Majors this year. Champion in one, 3rd in another, and not being scored on all throughout the Chaos Cup? Crazy. And 24-4 in touchdowns is unbelievable. I hope we get to play!

If you keep up that play you may even get a chance to wear this:









Just received those pictures in the mail today. Done. Looks incredible and I couldn't have asked for more. Me - very relieved given the time crunch.

Wow! Awesome!

If you guys want to add @OfficialNAF to any Spike Tweets I'll make sure to retweet to help spread the word.

[KFoged]

Wow I'm speechless! What a nice job!

That trophy wicked!

[DixonCider]

Travel arrangements have been made, hotel is booked, cash budgeted, four copies of roster printed, team is painted, a lot of play testing has been done, pitch is ready to go for pickup games for the stopover, and an extra set of dice are packed in my team case.

What else should I be bringing to the tourney?

[Khail]

Other extras that I always bring along: a copy of the rulebook, a pen, markers for RRs/Score/Turn/Weather, base rings for marking skills, and a ball.

See you all this weekend!

[DixonCider]

looking forward to getting games in this weekend and putting faces to people posting here

[generaljason]

Yeah I'm definitely looking forward to meeting all the new players from BLOC and beyond. If you're staying at the Compass Point Inn on Friday night we'll be meeting up in the bar that night. We may stay there or venture off, but we'll be at that bar early on for all the out of towners that want to meet up and hang before the event. The Spike! is going out drinking that night, so when you arrive just look for the table with a big shiny new trophy.

Send me an email at thunder-bowl@hotmail.com and I'll send you my phone number if you like, otherwise I'll just ask for you at the hotel lobby and call your room.

Hope to play you on the pitch (and you too Kaare. And Jeff - you're due a rematch )

See you in a few days!!!

[generaljason]

Got the Spike! trophy in my hands!! Amazing!! See all the out of towners in the bar at 8PM!!

Thanks for everyone who came out to participate, get hammered and generally have a good weekend out. It was a blast and I loved meeting all the new faces. Big cheers to ZootsuitJeff and KFoged for making the trip out and all the players from Calgary who came this year. Thanks to RCR and ORDO for sending their contingent out - always great having you guys! And thanks to our diehards from Edmonton who have been making the trek for the last 5 years. Already looking forward to next year.

And special thanks to NAF for all your help with getting the Spike! Trophy reforged this year. It definitely created a buzz all weekend and for the many years to come. Hope everyone had a great time and I'll see you next year!

Best regards,
Gj.

Gratz to Kfoged!

North America - that's how we do!

[DixonCider]

Was a blast, you guys will be seeing me again

[Blammaham]

Gratz to Kfoged!

North America - that's how we do!

Even though he went undefeated I think there were some very very close games. It was great to see a European this far over here!
