UPDATED 4-AUG-2014
Hey, everybody. Blingtoof's Gitbash has been a wandering vagabond in it's short life and we're going to our fourth location in as many years but this one will be the best one yet. This year we will be at Black Knight Games in Hamilton, Ontario. Black Knight is a fantastic store and they support Blood Bowl more than any other store I've seen. Aside from a league with over 30 active coaches (Check out "Hammerbowl" at http://www.bkbbl.com) they also stock miniatures and Blood Bowl-related products from Impact Miniatures including Dreadball.
DATES
The 2014 Gitbash will be on the weekend of November 15-16, 2014, and will be five games over two days (3 on Saturday, 2 on Sunday).
LOCATION
Black Knight Games
868 Mohawk Road East
Hamilton, Ontario
L8T 2R5
(905) 296-3401
www.blackknightgames.ca
2014 RULES POSTED
CLICK HERE to download the 2014 Blingtoof's Gitbash rules. They are largely the same as prior years. Download the document for full details but here are some highlights:
- All teams must have at least one goblin on them; all teams not ordinarily allowed to purchase goblins may purchase as many goblins as they like and teams with goblins as a player type may purchase as many of those goblins as they like (this does not include Secret Weapons).
- This is a resurrection-style tournament with a 1140 TV build with a skill pack.
- Teams that do not have at least three goblins on them may not give Big Guys upgrades other than normal skills.
- The skill pack is four normal skills and one doubles skill which must be given to five separate players.
- One goblin on your team also receives the Fan Favourite skill for free. This is in addition to the skill pack.

REGISTRATION
Registration for Blingtoof’s Gitbash is being done through Black Knight Games’ till; I will not be collecting cash. You may pre-register for the tournament ahead of time by calling in to the store at 905-296-3401 with your credit card or in person at the store. Pre-registering for the tournament will be highly preferred as it will make things go faster on the first day.
All coaches that pre-register and pre-pay for the tournament will receive a bonus team re-roll that may be used once over the course of the tournament (i.e. once for the whole tournament, not once per game). Cost for the tournament will be $20. NAF membership is mandatory. Local players with "Stronghold" memberships (Black Knight's loyalty program) will receive a reduced tournament entry fee of $16.
ORDER FROM IMPACT MINIATURES, MAKE A BETTER PRIZE TABLE!
In the past we've done a group order from Impact but this year we're doing things a bit differently. Black Knight keeps items from Impact in stock on their shelves so for us to do a group order outside of that would be more than a little douche-y.
Impact has stepped up, though, and basically said that they'll donate 17% of the value of whatever we order from Impact through Black Knight as prize support. So, for example, if we collectively order $1000 from Impact we'll get $170 in prizes. Pretty sweet, eh? CLICK HERE for full details on how to order. To be clear, you need to order from Black Knight for the tournament to get prize support; if you order direct from Impact it doesn't count.

| I will soon be putting in this year's order for pitches from FF-Fields. I'm getting confirmation on pricing but, based on prior years, roll-up vinyl pitches should be around $45 and puzzle-piece pitches should be around $65. If you are interested let me know! Get yourself some Home Feeld Udvantij and get a bone when sneaking players on to the pitch! |

I'll be there for sure. Never ever missed a Blingtoof tournament! And the dice make great spacers for my slime mold collection.
B.S.: Only the notorious P. Meery and me have actually attended all Blingteef, if I am not mistaken. |

| You are correct, Alex. Yourself and Pete are the only ones to have attended all 3 Blingtoofs (Blingteef?). |
