Long ago, the Phillee Iggles were a team to be reckoned with, a force within the ranks of those playing Nuffle's game. Then it happened, tragedy. Their coach, Big Red, decided he needed a stronger catcher to compliment their established thrower Don O'Van. He acquired T'Rel in a complicated, and disputed trade. He had the star player at the catcher position that the fans of the mighty Iggles had been demanding.

Their first season together, Don O'Van and T'Rel worked together as if they had been playing together for years. Sadly, their season ended in the championship game, losing to the Pats of Newingland.

Hopes ran high, the fans were looking forward to another winning season and hopefully a championship win. It was not to be. Player agent Shrew Roseylouse got into T'Rel's ear and told him he could get T'Rel a better contract from the Iggles. T'Rel, while being speedy and with great hands for catching, was not the sharpest knife in the drawer. He believed Shrew and decided to sabotage the Iggles season if he did not get what he wanted from them.

This angered the Iggles ower, coach, and especially the bloodthirsty fans. How dare T'Rel try to ruin their season! Caused from all the anger and hate frothing through Phillee, a rift in the warp opened one summer morning. It opened over the city of Phillee and something came flying from it towards a small nestle of homes in the nearby realm of Nujerzee. It raced through the sky. T'Rel, exercising and holding a CabalVision interview in his front yard looked towards the sky. While able to evade opposing teams blitzers, he could not escape the path of the giant object hurtling towards him from the sky. With a loud THUD, the object slammed T'Rel into the turf outside his home. Thus ending the era of T'Rel in the city of Phillee.

To this day, a Bloodbowl tournament is held in memory of this blessed occasion...it is called...The Krimpet Kup!

Is this going to be open registration? I'm going to try and recruit some of the Harrisburg Guys for this as well as some locals from the Reading Area.

This sounds like fun!

And don't forget...the sinful "Peanut Butter Kandy Kake Ice-Cream"! I just had some last night......sinful!

Harrisburg Mafia will be well represented.

Myself, zinak (Kent), Josh and Jason will all be coming along with Steel Thunder (who we ve adopted as a pseudo Mafia Member despite his Reading affiliations).

Although we find the lack of a Best Painted prize most disturbing.

MOST DISTURBING!!!!! why play the game if not to paint :>

Perhaps a single pack of Kandy Kakes would suffice as a best painted prize? They're my favorite! Yum!

Rune_Master - Feb 01, 2006 - 11:52 AM
Post subject:

OK, OK

. I'll buy the winner of the best painted competition...a pot of their favorite paint (non-metallic! Wink

)from GW! Bear in mind guys, there is no fee here, so prizes are limited. That being said, I'll see if I can come up with something... Anybody have a prize suggestion?

Shane - Feb 02, 2006 - 12:11 PM
Post subject:

Um, a case of Butterscotch Krimpets for the winner?

"Smash their bones to" Jelly Krimpets for the most CAS?

A Coconut or Chocolate Junior for anyone bringing a Stunty team?

Box of cupcakes for best painted? (I think they're the only ones with two colors of icing, right?)

--->Every once in a while I'll find a random Kwikee-Mart up here in Boston that's got Tasty Kakes, and a chorus of angels sings, "Hallelujah!"

You do know that Tasty Kake will deliver? Don't you!!! Very Happy

We sent some to my brother in Germany years ago.

If you'd like I can have my business sponsor the winner with a case of XS Energy Drinks, the best on the market!

Personally I think a Poundcake Junior might best represent both the status in height, and what is likely to happen to them on the pitch.

BTW...My Flings will DEFINATELY be taking the fleld this weekend...I would think that I would have a definite advantage with all of the prize support being food related. Smile

Energy drinks and Krimpets?! Someone's going to be bouncing off the walls that night!

Any donated prize support would be greatly appreciated and gladly accepted! Just for that, I'm going to waive your entry fee! Very Happy

Ken, I understand some of the Mafia may swing through afterwards on to AC. May be an enticement for any of your crew on the fence about going. Staying overnight in AC might be more attractive than in NE Philly or driving home Sat. night.

Sounds like we ll probably be in AC Friday instead! Probably during the day and evening. Gambling-- it s good and good for you!!

Sheesh. You guys are no fun anymore.

We ll have to schedule a Harrisburg Tourney around one of the forthcoming UFC fights to get an excuse to get you guys out of the house for a full weekend of testosteronie goodness.

And no, testosteronie is not a word... but it should be.

KarlLagerbottom - Feb 09, 2006 - 03:25 PM
Post subject:

I'm sure having someone on the inner circle of the UFC won't hurt our chances at getting tickets. Heck...why not pitch them the idea of scheduling their event around yours....

It would give Bashing Not At The Bay a whole new meaning.

That's cool...as long as Choclolate-Chip Pancakes are the consolation prize for no UFC. (Work those contacts baby! Smile

If you look on the website, www.geocities.com/krimpet_kup/registration, you can at least see who is planning to attend and what they are planning to bring with them...

I think this is what you had in mind.

My Skaven are planning on some nice ripping and rending, and not just a little scroing.

AAARRGH! Have some things that have developed around the homefront that demand my attention. I won't be able to swing this one after all.

Sorry to bail on you guys on this.

(Well...it's pretty clear who DIDN'T win.) Smile

Post subject:

I won a set of wooden spoons, ya punk! Besides, if I was worried about personal gratification through victorious results, right now this would be the LAST game I'd be playing! Although, you're probably right, the results would have been posted Sat. night if I had miraculously won! LOL

Anyway, I've been looking for how I am supposed to upload/forward/enter results to the NAF for ranking purposes. Anybody out there know the procedure?
