no need to submit a roster in advance but any incorrect rosters get a 5 point penalty, even for genuine mistakes, so triple check them... |

Scouts, Women's Institite..
Aren't you supposed to be holding a raffle rather than entering one?
Try Smiths or any half-decent stationers. They might be called 'Cloakroom Tickets'. |

Following a discussion on TBB I wanna hear more people's opinions:
I was planning on playing, although I've already decided I'm not eligible for the Most Sporting & Best Painted awards and probably the actual trophy too. I'm a little paranoid (and perhaps modest) that people will think "Indi organised this, he's a nice bloke so have a 5 for sportsmanship"
I don't really want to miss this chance to improve my NAF ranking with Humans, although I really don't want to have to say "And the winner of this year's CamCarnage is.... errrr..... me. Yay me."
Currently unsure if I should be allowed to be allowed to win the Most TD/CAS awards...
What do people think - should I be allowed to win any of the awards? Should I be allowed in the raffle for the annual? Should I be allowed to play AT ALL?!? (I do have able bodied helpers to enter results and stuff, and Tim Ibe's spreadsheet is great so it shouldn't be a problem when it comes to admin). |

Thanks for the flowers - I'll have the sheet available to the public soon.
In Mannheim all 3 Organizers played and it was quite some stress for us as i had to run the rankings, enter results on Sunday, schedule the following rounds, N-Key and Steffen had to run the bar, organize food, etc. We went for all prizes, same as a regular attendee (we didn't have most sporting though), but only Steffen won something (2nd best painted). N-Key and Steffen were not very competitive playing Gobbos and Chaos. I changed my playing style to more fun oriented (no stalling, taking more risk and a "shoot at the ball" defence, etc.) to avoid the odds of winning or getting into the final. But only the first game would have had a different result with a different playing style for sure (he tied as i didn't stall before going up 2-1).
I'd never get myself to organize a tournament and not attend as i enjoy the playing way too much. So if you have people to key in the results and don't have to care that much for food i don't see a reason why you should not play. If you have to tweak the swiss ranking to avoid people playing each other more than once (WILL happen!), just make sure that you don't a benefit like playing gobbos or flings from that. We got into that situation once: after tweaking the last round, N-Key would have played against halflings while the other Gobbo coach heading for "Best Stunty Award" got a normal team. so we tweaked differently
I don't see any problem with you competing for a prize you can't influence. We had a public vote for Best Painted, so no problem with Steffen attending. And if you manage to win 6 games with Humans in a no star environment (you won't, i bet!), you deserve to take the trophy! |

I've no problem wih you playing, as you won't beat me anyway
Seriously, I don't see why you shouldn't enter most, if not all the awards, where would be the attraction of hosting your own tournament this year if you won by "fixing" the results? If you did that I'd guess no-one would attend one again. Go for it! |

Bring it on Indy - you know you wont win anyway...hee hee hee.
Seriously though, there is no reason why you can't enter all the comps as people can be very serious about those sportsmanship points, just go for it - I think you'll find you end up with faily even points in that respect as people wont want to upset you one way or the other, but having said that - if you are a good sportsman then you deserve the points - you'll get a fair hearing from me if we play. |

(Indigo told me it was close, like walking distance)
Louis, a couple of other french coachs and me are staying here (anyone else?). Don't know if there's room or not, but giv it a try.
Fully booked now I think I've left this far too late - I wasn't gonna get a place as I live in Ipswich - 50 miles from Cambridge, but I can't be arsed to drive all that way each day! |
