North America - The Challenge of Q'ermitt III - April 28-29, 2007.

Post subject: The Challenge of Q'ermitt III - April 28-29, 2007.
This is the third annual Challenge of Q'ermitt*.

(* Q'ermitt operates under some funky Aztec calendar which explains why it has not been in the same month two years in a row! Razz We'll see if we can sort him out for next year!)

In this tournament participating teams will have an opportunity to span the globe, as they are transported via the portals of the Old Ones, to play in Blood Bowl pitches all over the world to determine who is truly the mightiest.

Players will have the chance to play on specially constucted boards which represent different geographical locations (e.g. desert, ice, goblin swamp stadium). Each pitch will have their own special rules (for weather, etc.) which will be included in the tournament package. The two players who advance to the finals will be playing in the temple of the mighty Slann, Q'ermitt, who (for reasons known only to him) is set to determine who is the mightiest Blood Bowl team in the world and bestow them with the mystical Plaque of Q'ermitt.

I have booked the same room for the tourney that it was held in last year (the Monte Carlo Inn - Brampton Suites). Kudos again to Ben Tusim for finding this location for the Canadian Open, as it is now the home for both of these tourneys. Great location, hotel above, and they will bring us beer and food while we play! Who could ask for more!

Date is set in stone - April 28th, 29th.

I will probably also be running the Stunty Cup on the Saturday night as I did last year. I will post a separate thread for that one. This one will be based totally on interest of people who are attending. If you want it, I will host it! I'm sure Clan-Skaven will be there to defend his Stunty Cup title, and will also be attempting to re-creat the feat of winning while being too drunk to remember doing so! Very Happy

Any feedback from those who attended last year that can help me make this a bigger and better tourney I would love to hear from you.


Hope to see you there,


Spazz

New Rules Edit

The following are the new rules for the team creation and skill advancement at the tournament:

Team Creation:
King Teams will be created at TV120
King Inducements may be bought for their regular cost as permanent parts of the team.
King Star players MAY be bought! (Q`ermitt wants to see the best of the best after all)
King Halflings may hire the Master Chef at a cost of 50,000 gp
King Goblin teams may buy bribes at a cost of 50,000 gp
King Wizards may not be bought, Q'ermitt does not want any rivals present!
King Special play cards may not be bought

Costs of Skills During Team Creation:
Regular Skill - 20K
Doubles Skill - 30K
+MA/AV - 30K
+AG - 40K
+ST - 50K

*Any one player cannot have more than two skills or attribute increases given to them during the team creation (or one skill and one attribute increase).


Skill Advancement:
After each round the T.O. will roll a d6, the result of this roll will apply to ALL TEAMS. The d6 result will dictate what kinds of skills are available. To know, consult the chart below.

d6 roll of
1-2 - Regular skill
3-4 - Doubles Skill
5 - Players choice of either MA or AV
6 - Player's choice of either AG or ST

** Players may receive only one skill from the skill advancement phase regardless of how many they gained in the Team Creation.

***Star players are peaked - meaning that the cannot get any more skills than what they already start with.

Excellent! I know even the TBBF likes to get rooms there as it is so convenient! You stagger out of bed, come downstairs and you're there! Allows for tons of drinking without the fuss of having to get home afterwards!

Yeah, I remember! I also remember wondering whether Glenn was going to punch you in your drunken face! You were seriously pushing you luck that night!

As for the farts, they were wretched! I think that is what threw everyone off of their game and allowed you the win!

Thanks for the offer Eric, but I am going to be my own odd man out in this year's tourney. I feel that i am comfortable enough with running a tourney now and I mean c'mon if JTB and Jones can play in their own tourney, then I am sure that I can handle it! Wink

Great! I expect you guys to put some serious heat on those Ottawa boys, get them to experience the tourney scene!

I am updating the first post to include who has said that they will and might come. So far it is looking promising as I have only added a few of the TBBF guys - will get more solid confirmation from them.

At this year's Q'ermitt we will have no less than twelve boards! That is not counting Glenn Jones, should he bring down the Khorne field like I was begging him to do (that thing is so freakin' awesome!), or anyone else who plans to bring their custom board to the tourney.

The boards I am supplying will be as follows:
* boat pitch
*halfling pitch
*graveyard pitch
*goblin swamp pitch
*orc pitch
*skaven sewer pitch
*khemri desert pitch
*temple of Q'ermitt
*chaos dwarf pitch

*norse pitch (this one is almost finished it's repairs that kept it from use last year and will look 100% better than it ever did!)

*Mordheim pitch (this one was meant to be included in the Challenge of Q'ermitt I - but the person who was meant to build it was too busy having a stroke! Really!) I have finally taken the torch and am going to build it for this year's tourney.

*Dwarf pitch - a new creation for this year, be sure to keep your eyes on the "House Rules section for rules for this new field.

I will post pics of any new and improved pitches as they get finsihed.

And Joe, it can get a bit crazy, but it is a lot of fun! The chance for your team to play a game of Blood Bowl with a special flavour - be it by the race that is hosting the game, or the geographic region.

I would plan on having teams created with the 1 million, as with the advancement system I have come up with, there will be alot of skills coming throughout the tourney. Start off as rookies, is the way I think I am going to go with it.

As for the Stunty Cup, I think the website (see link on my signature) has the excel sheet with all the info for the teams.

I am in the processing of ordering dice for this year. I know that last year a lot of people had bought dice for friends who were not able to make it (indeed it was great hearing people yell "Double Q'ermitts!" at the Capital City Kick Off!).

So I was wondering if people would be interested in purchasing extra dice from the tourney - while in some ways it makes it a good incentive to actually come to the tourney, I also figure it is good advertising to have more recognizable stuff out there that informs people of my tourney!

Let me know in the next few days.

Seriously though, if I do have extras, then I will save a couple sets for you. But I will have to give them first to the people who attend, however. You understand.

For the record I am ordering 50 dice, which would then be 25 people, so 24 participants (I save the first set for myself, of course!)

You're such a dumass! If I have more people than dice, then the dice got to those who prepay first! One of the great challenges of the TO is figuring out how to get people to pay (and thereby commit) to the tourney before they just show up on the day.

And for those who do show up on the day it is first come first serve.

All taken care of buddy.

That is funny! What is with the apples on the heads? Dare I ask the team's name?

I have the team creation rules etc. ready to go up I am just getting some second opinions on them before I post them. Once they are posted I do not want to change them.

But teams will be buying skills, attributes for the cost listed in LRB 5, and there will be star players available. I will have more posted around lunch time today.

Well, I could go with the obvious apple based names: Rotten Apples, One Bad Apple Spoils the Bunch, Blocky Appleseed, etc.

But their concept is that they are worshippers of the Greek Goddess of Chaos, Eris (Discordia to the Romans). The apple is the the golden apple of discord. I could ramble on further but I will leave it at that.

As for the name: Five Fingered Fist of Eris

Okay boys, the rules are now up for your perusal on the first post of the thread. I am trying out some new things this year and am curious as to how they are going to work out.

These rules are set in stone now, so be confident in planning your teams.
Spazzfist - Mar 14, 2007 - 10:41 AM
Post subject:
The question was raised as to why I am limiting the skills during creation to only two?

There was also another concern: are star players too powerful to be allowed in tournament play?

Ben had pointed out to me that Varag Ghoul Chewer was a glorified orc blitzer. He has the following advantages of a rookie blitzer: (+1 Strength, Jump up, Mighty Blow, Thick Skull). Like all star players he also comes with the Loner nega-trait. All this for 260,000 g.p.

To buy this same player from a rookie blitzer it would break down as follows:
Blitzer - 90K
+1 St - 50K
Jump Up - 30K
Mighty Blow - 20K
Thick Skull - 20K
Total - 210K Heck for that price I could make him Strength 5 and still not have the Loner trait!

Some also thought that Morg might be too powerful. Morg is an ogre with the following advancements: +1 Strength, +1 Agility, +1 Armour, and Block. He has the Loner trait as do the Human's ogres (but not the ogres on an ogre team, but the big notable difference is that Morg does not have Bonehead. But at a whopping 430,000 g.p., he carries a hefty price.

Compare that to a rookie ogre with the same stats.
Ogre 140K
+1 Strength - 50K
+1 Agility - 40K
+1 Armour - 30K
Block - 30K
Total - 290, 000 g.p. for this price you could get an ogre of Morg's calibre (with bonehead) plus another rookie ogre. Is the extra 140, 000 you pay for Morg really worth it for getting rid of the Bonehead?

So in many cases it was more economical to tool up a regular positional player to the level of a star player (with the exception of star players with Exceptional skills). Seeing as star players were already seen as "too powerful" then by allowing the teams to create most of them, it did not make sense to allow it.

By allowing only two skills per player, it allows for a lot of team development, as well as makes the Star players more of a consideration to shell out the big bucks for.

Oh, the point had been brought up so I would like to clarify a point about star players.

Should two teams show up to a match and both have the same star player, then both teams will be allowed to play with that star player. Given the method of going from board to board; travelling through warp tunnels, Slann magics, etc etc, it is quite feasible that the player could be in two places at the same time. Don't try to understand the logistics of it, just play the damn game!

I am indeed interested.

Cheap skills and a lower starting TR is pretty crazy. Especially when you consider the skill combos out there.

Personally, I would been a lot more strict on the limitations, allowing only one skill per player.

Stunty Cup Announcement

It is important that all coaches who plan on attending the Stunty Cup this year get back to me ASAP! Remember that the first eight coaches who register for this event will be the ones selected. So far I have received word from the following coaches:

Ben
Eric R.
Clan-Skaven (to defend his drunken title from the Stunty Cup II!) Very Happy
Cramy
Talons
Angryrob
Grell - he is coming to the Q'ermitt, and as the Stunty Cup I champion, coming to defend his title against the drunken usurper!
Shadowseer2005


Could any of the Ottawa boys let me know if Glenn planning on attending again this year, in an attempt to bring glory to Alex's gnome team?


It should also be noted that with changes made in LRB5 that there will be slight modifications made to some of the rosters. For examples the halfling with the cleaver will now have stab instead of claw which, frankly, is now useless againat all stunty teams. I will review those rules and post word in this tonight.

Well, I got a bunch of questions.

1) I notice that there is no mention of the Secret Weapon skill. The players with secret weapons don't get thrown-out after a drive?

2) In the Goblins roster, lots of SW guys lost their Stunty skill, while the LRB5 says that they have Stunty. Is this intentional?

3) Goblin roster again, many SW guys have No Hands in the LRB5 (all except for the Pogoer). Do they have hands in your roster?

4) I'm assuming that Bombs means Bombardier in the LRB5 roster? That one's pretty obvious, but want to make sure.

5) The Pogo Stick doesn't exist in LRB5. It is replaced with a combination of Dirty Player, Leap and Very Long Legs. What is the intent of Pogo Stick?

Doesn't matter, as it is first touchdown wins. This is a quick tourney after the main action - even doing it this way took us 'til after midnight last year!

I will change that then - doing it quickly at work, so did not have the rulebook, and a lot of this was from when it was LRB4. Note The Pogoer will still not have Stunty - doesn; tmake sense if he is riding a giant pogo stick!

No, they would not have hands - again LRB4.

Notably, the squigs have dirty player, leap and very long legs now to replace their obsolete "pogo stick", and any secret weapons (with the exception of stabers) have the "no hands" trait.

Craig,

I was curious about the Skink list. The teams for the stunty cup are to be created using 500,000. That means that the skink team can only ever have 8 skinks. They will never ba able to take the adept of sotek.

ie: skins 7 x 60k = 420,000
adept 1 x 90k = 90,000
total = 510,00

is this intentinal so we can't take them or an oversight. I was planing on taking skinks and hoping to take 1 adept but I can't even do so. I guess I will look at a different team to bring unless you can change either the cost of the adept or raise the starting money for team building.

Apart from that I am looking forward to the tourney.

See ya there.

An oversight of course, I am not such a ruthless tease! The Stunty lists were taken from FUMBBL and then, in order to make for faster game play Rod and I came up with the reduced rosters and money lists with no re-rolls. This never came up last year, so I just assumed all was well/

I guess we can take the cost of the adept down to 80K. Problem solved!

Wow! It is already April, only a few more weeks to go! I am confident that I will get all the work I need to done in time, but there is still a fair bit to do!

Work has begun on the Dwaf Giants' pitch (named after the champion of Q'ermitt I and II) who was that that played them? I think it was Glenn.... Wink It will be a firly straightofrward one to make, and I am not worried about getting it done on time.

The Mordheim pitch is going to be the showpiece this year. I have been working steadily on that one and went and ordered some supplies I need to finish it today, until then I can get that one about 99% done and then add the final touches.

Keep checking out the Q'ermitt website for updates and pics, as I plan on taking some more pics of the boards and sending them off to Eric so that we can show off some of what you can expect in a few weeks time!

I am thinking also that I will stral Brian's idea from the last Deathbowl and offer a $5 for every person that you bring to the tournament that has never come to the Q'ermitt before. And before any of you mutts try it, my brother is coming because of me, so none of you can claim the discount for him! Smile So get out there and encourage all those old BB veterans to come out and support the local tournament scene! I believe that Anthony Watts, Ian Dundas and several other notable TBBF members have not come out before, so if any of you have any sway or leverage with them then earn yourself a discount!

See you in a few weeks!

And on that note, I will be offering prizes for those who register on-line, and a better one for people who actually commit by making a payment to me through Paypal. (Have not decided on the on-line registration prize)

Paypal payments can be made to my account: Craigtw2001@yahoo.ca The prize for that will be a Deathball Ogre - one of the two seen here:

Geez..... Everyone just LOVES to pick on the teacher! What's wrong Joe? Did you get beaten by the nuns too often back in the English Boarding school? Wink

To amend my previous statement - I just came across some figs that were kindly donated by NAF for the tourney, so one or two of those blisters will be given away as prizes for early registrants. I will still keep the Deathball ogre for one lucky person who pays early.

Question. When you will do the skill roll, will we know who we are matched-up against for the next game before or after the roll?

Spazzfist - Apr 05, 2007 - 09:13 PM
Post subject:
The skill roll will happen after the last game of a round is done, and before the match-ups are made. It will give you something to think about while I am busily entering results and trying to ensure that players are not playing on any given custom pitch more than once (if I can help it!)
Spazzfist - Apr 08, 2007 - 11:35 AM
Post subject:
As incentive for people to sign up now, I will be doing a draw of the names that are registered on the website (see the link in my sig) winner will get a prize - which can be picked up when you attend the tournament.

I will do another draw on the 15th and then again on the 22nd, people who win will NOT be removed from the chance of winning future prizes. This means the sooner you enter the more prizes you have chances of winning!

Also, don't forget the Deathball ogre prize for early payment. I will do the same system for this prize, but only for every week (starting tonight) that I get payment for the tourney entry fee via Paypal (or if you want to bring it to my house in cash!) then I will enter an extra ballot for you to win the Deathball ogre. So, someone who were to pay by midnight tonight would have three ballots as oppose to someone who pays early the week of who would only have one chance, or the person who pays at the door who has no chance!

Get off yer butts people! I need solid numbers!

I would like to offer a discount for pre-registration, but as it is I am not sure that I am going to cover my costs. That is the one big bummer about the low attendance in the north American tourney scene, if we could have 30+ like the Europeans, then I could charge less....


For the draw the randomiser will be courtesy of this link:

http://www.irony.com/mailroll.html

As I don't have all your e-mails, I can only post the result here, normally you can have the results e-mailed to ensure fairness. I will have them e-mailed to Ben and Eric as witnesses:


Eric#1
Rob#2
Dan#3
Marc-Andre#4
Ben#5


According to the roll, the number 1 was rolled which means that Eric is our first winner. Congrats Eric! There will be a shadowforge blister for you at the tourney.

I've been promoting your tournament out this ways. I will be going out to some gaming stores this weekend and next to promote my tourney and yours. Do you have an ad or poster that I can print out and post at the stores? I did one up and will be posting them in the stores. If you got something then send it to me at dancampbell1974@gmail.com

On a side note I am bringing a new team to the Qermitt and I think you will get a kick out of them. Only 16 more days to go.

Re teams, I kinda didn't get motivated to paint a new team yet, although I played a second game with my dark elves against Jones and they did ok, so maybe I'll finish the painting on them...

Well all I will say on that is, that it was in the 7s round, which is quite a different game. Who knows what way it would have gone in regular BB. I think that pesky goblin might have been even more anoying..........

In which case you can keep your comments off of the thread which is about a tournament which uses boards with different rules!

But having re-read his statements, I am not entirely certain whether he was just talking about BB7s and Streetbowl and games like that which are significantly different than a regular game, whereas the Q'ermitt boards are regular games with different kick off tables and maybe one or two variances which do not affect game play that much.

But given that that was not clear, I did vote Xtreme. The last thing I need is for someone to not allow my tourney to be sactioned! That would really kill the attendance!

Hi Craig,

Finalizing my strategies for the Stunty Cup Smile Smile Smile

Noticed that the Pogoer and the Fanatic don't have stunty, but the LRB5 states that they do have stunty. Is this done on purpose?

Also noticed that the Pogoer has MV6, while LRB5 states that he has MV7. Is this done on purpose?

Thanks again Marc-Andre this is because the Stunty Cup was taken from LRB4 and I've been too focussed on getting the boards ready for the tourney to notice those differences.

LRB5 tourney, LRB5 rules. This applies if you notice anything else I've missed! Wink

Less than one week now! It would seem that Eric will win the Deathball ogre by default as no-one else has paid me yet except him!* Get you money in by tomorrow midnight for a chance!


Spazz

* Strictly from the standpoint of a TO it helps a LOT when you know how many people you can count on coming (because you have their money as oppose to just their word), and to be able to buy prizes and stuff from the money from the tourney, rather than out of your own pocket.

Some bad news, the dwarf board will not be making an appearance this year.

I am not going into the whole sob story here, but a lot of things have been going on, and repairs on other boards and the accidental marring of the dwarf board mean that it is just not going to be ready. Apologies to anyone who was looking forward to it.

But let me assure you that the Mordheim pitch is the finest I have built to date, and it alone is going to be worth the price of admission! Smile I am going to take some pics of it soon and get the up here to get people pumped up.

Important Notice

I am looking into cancelling the booking for the conference room for the Q'ermitt tournament, as the committment level is too low and I stand to lose a lot of money.

I just got word that more people are dropping out and that puts me at about 10 people that I can count on for sure to be coming.

10 x $30 = $300

I am spending $400 alone on the room, plus the cost of the prizes, etc. means that I am standing to lose a couple of hundred bucks which just isn't worth it to me.

I regret to say it, but if I can cancel the room, I am going to. If I am unable to find an alternative space, then this means the end of the tourney.

I would say that I am sorry, but really I have nothing to be sorry about. I did everything I could and have gone ahead based on the promises that people assured me that they would attend. I will not be held accountable for them bailing on me at the last minute.

My regrets.

I wrote this to the tbbf also.

Craig

Don't stress over it. Hopefully you can cancel the room reservation with little or no penalty and just have the tourney at my place.

You have done the best you can by advertising it, offering great pitches to play on and lots of prizes.... what more can you do?

I would not worry or concern yourself with things that are out of your control.

Things come up, people change their mind. I would just suggest that you find a cheaper venue next year as I did. Unfortunately we don't have the luxury in N.America as the Europeans in getting 30+ people for every tourney.

Look at Brian for example, I don't think he could do any more to make the Deathbowl better and he would still only draw in the 20's with a lot of the local players not even showing up to support.

So lets make this a positive for the people who are attending. I'm pumped for some Bloodbowl.

Shadowseer2005 - Apr 25, 2007 - 07:57 AM

I agree with Ben. No point in besting yourself up on things you can't control. It is sad when the local community does not come out to support a tourney in their own back yard. Whether we play at the Monte Carlo Inn, Ben's or another venue I am sure all who attend will have a blast.

Update

The conference room at the Monte Carlo Inn has been cancelled, which is a real shame, as it was by far the best location for any tournament that I have ever been to. Kudos to Ben for finding it!

Seeing as I did not give them the 14 days notice that was required, I am still facing a $200 charge for the cancellation, which means that factoring in that and prizes, I will still have to be charging the same for the tourney. Sorry, no break there!

Huge thanks again to Ben for providing us with a place to play, my wife was very supportive and offered our place, but to be honest, we do not have the room to do it properly and Ben's basement is very well suited for this size of tourney.

So things are still on. Thanks to all of you who are supporting the tourney and coming out. I am going to look at this whole experience as a learning curve, and have plans to do things a little differently next year. In fact, this whole experience has changed my perspective on the North American BB scene, and what we can do to improve it.

I look forward to seeing an odd number coming out, so that I can vent my frustrations on you all by whupping your butts at Blood Bowl! Very Happy

It's gonna be fun!

I have to agree with Ben. The fact that you have successfully run this tournament is a huge deal, but you don't want to lose money. There is a decent community of players that try to support each other to keep tournaments going, but in the end whoever shows up is all you can ask. Do the best you can, and if its in a basement or something, thats fine. I would just be happy playing BB against other coaches, location isn't a big deal.

On a side note, I had to cancel my plans this weekend, but still can't come since the doctor told me to stop doing so much until my leg heals more. Next year, count me in Craig.

Wow, what a weekend!

Yet again Team Ottawa made out like bandits, boo yah!

Big thanks to Craig for the tournament, I know I was a big doubter about the 'crazy pitch rules' but I loved it, except when that crocodile ate my poor orc Sad

Big thanks also to Ben for putting up with us Ottawa B***tch*s all weekend and hosting the whole event, good stuff!

The tournament really was a big test, as each game you not only changed the race and opponent but also the field of play, tough stuff.

I would like to thank Gruff Orcawold for his sterling work in our glorious victory, 7 TDs and one TD pass is not a bad return for 150000.....

I would also like to thank my oponents, who were, on balance, probably less lucky with the dice than me this time around, Particularly Talons (long Bomb Q'ermitt Q'ermitt Smile)
All the games were really close run things which could easily have ended up with a different result, although the amzons did die a bit too easily for Eric, sorry about that mate, but the lads in the hold did have a great time of it.

Oh, and the high point was getting a vote for most sporting, although it did cross my mind it was an ironic vote I have decided to believe it genuine Smile

marvelous.

Great pictures Rod! I think my favourite has to be the one of Joe and eye with the matching slants of the head and the funny expressions!



Definitely some good memories in those pics! Thanks for that - will post mine soon.

It is the only game my wife and I play together (despite my many attempts to sway her to the side of Blood Bowl) , and I know that Angryrob and Mrs. Angry also play it together! Definitely the marriage cement of the playstation realm! Very Happy

Great tourney. Had a blast. Thanks to Craig for organizing this, and to Rod for helping-out. Thanks to Ben for hosting the tourney.

The custom pitches were a lot of fun.

I agree the custom pitches rock ( 3 years in a row & I have yet to play on the Chaos Dwarf Pitch Shocked )

No problem with the helping, I actually kinda enjoyed it, (good practice for my tourney in Sept.)

Ok, kiddies lets get that button pushed, I wanna see if my rankings go up a smidgin or down a smidgin!!!!

I had a blast. Can't complain walking way with 2 awards. I know this is a repeat but a huge thanks to Ben for the space for the tourney and to Rod for helping out.

Craig it was a blast as always playing on the special pitches. Now if I can play Rod one of these days i'll truly have been blessed.

Don't go giving that big ape a swelled head! Wink

Seriously though, the truly blessed are those who do not have to sit behind Rod after a night of his Guiness binging! Shocked

Wow, Joe picked up the win? I guess the quality of the tournament goes down when I can't make it eh?

Seriously though, congrats to everyone. I really missed the Q'Ermitt this year. I had a good feeling after finishing 2nd the past two years. Congrats again Spazz and hopefully I'll be able to make it next year.

It's the least I can do for the NA scene! I must add...Mrs Lycos wont touch the PS2... except for Guitar Hero...... we with the others above!

edit: ok... in the pics... Spazzfist giving out the certificates? ( I sent them to Ben). Now Joe is Notorious who won yes? Who is who on the photo's? My admin powers allow me to view all the tourney stats and I can see who played who and which race but there are a few pics there with lots of you in them.
Im really keen to get Canada and the USA moving on the tourney side and it kinda helps to get who's who.
