Ah don't worry about it..kinda an 'in-joke' from the Dutch Open based on Sputnik's recent dominance and plagurised/bastardised from a TV show we have over here...
It wasn't aimed at colonials...that's why it's in the 'Europe' section... Rolling Eyes

I am sure that the winner of the Blood Bowl will score tons of points... Very Happy

with 200 coaches he should easily get the sweet spot at the top Very Happy

Until then I keep on smiling each day and I am happy to be Nuffle's chosen for a while... Laughing

LOL!

Now there's an idea....
Actually I'm worried that you're gonna do pretty well at the BB and disappear outta sight. We may have to make like F1 and bring in rules to curb teutonic dominance. Wink

Failing that, barracking from the lower table no-hopers will just have to continue...

P.S. Still not taking Lizzies or is that info top secret? I hope you're rubbish with all other races.... Very Happy

But if I were you I wouldn't be worried at all. Very Happy

Wouldn't mind at a crack at all mate. Very Happy

Shame it wouldn't be lizzies, I could use the CR boost from winning as a 45+ point underdog... Wink

Oh meant to ask you in A'Dam, any chance of bringing me over a copy of that compilation CD you put together? Worth a beer or two...

Now I am courious. How many NAF points would I get for a possible victory???? Would it be worth pushing more followers into your *special* campain??? Very Happy

hmm, let me see... but in that case you could also make profit by opening a store selling T-shirts, mugs, caps, stickers... Laughing

ups, dreaming again! Embarassed

Back to the serious topics now:

The points are weighted according to CR, so if you beat my Orcs with your Lizards you'd get less of a gain than the tourney average because you're expected to win. I would take a corresponding smaller drop in CR because I'd be expected to lose.
On the other hand, if I were to win, I'd get a bigger gain in CR and you'd get a bigger drop. You're top of the tree and my CR says I'm a useless waster! Very Happy

There'll be something up soon explaining how CR works, but basically it's gonna be tough at the top and us lesser mugs are all gunning for ya. Smile

I did play the Lizards at the first round at the Dutch Open, didn't like it... it is hard playing bloodbowl with most of your players in the d&i box... but at least i scored one td Smile

OK, CR is Coach Rating...in other words the numbers next to the names on the ranking page.
You don't have to do anything to get ranked, that comes with your membership. We'll do all the donkey work, every NAF member who plays at the BB will either get their current rating adjusted, or a new rating if they're either playing a different race or they're yet to be entered into the rankings at all.
(Only games against fellow NAF members count for ranking purposes though.)
Feel free to collar any of us up there with any questions. Very Happy

Any way to get Andy to ensure all NAF members will face at least one NAF opponent? I'd hate to think I'd play all 6 games and not get ranked.

Make everyone join! Shouldn't be hard to convince 95% of the participants to do so, don't you think? And the rest are hopefully members already...

Indigo - Feb 25, 2003 - 06:25 AM
Post subject:

it's going to be more than that - if everyone on TBB who replied to the "what are you taking to the BB" topic then we will have over 25% of the coaches there already!

Darkson - Mar 03, 2003 - 05:15 PM

Well, managed to play 3 NAF coaches, for a 1/1/1 record, so hopefully I'll stay around the 150 mark.

My only loss was against a guy who said he didn't want to join NAF. He probably will in the end though, knowing my luck Wink

Thadrin - Mar 03, 2003 - 11:19 PM

Same applies for me. My ranking may be somewhat less embarassing than my final placing.

Cidervampire - Mar 04, 2003 - 03:40 AM

Hopefully my new ranking should be well up there, as far as I can tell most top NAF people who got a similar position to me all used different races

Was that Thornbjorn??

He started with saying that he insisted on playing with the IP rule (which I hate, and learned that most people seem to love it Crying or Very sad

). He started his turn and promptly forgot his turnmarker Laughing

.
Asked if I wanted to call an IP myself and told I didn't. Then he didn't call mine either....
He kicked me ass though. He Griffed me alive (while playing undead)....

Yeah, the 1-2 Griff Luthor combo was potent. I had a strip ball wardancer who turned Griff over in the first turn, then was killed before he could play another turn Sad

Went to 4-3 his way in the end which I reckon was creditable considering my best player played a sum total of one turn and he had those monster stars. Said he wasn't convinced about joining NAF, I tried to convince him but stopped after I lost Wink
