Hope everyone had a good time.
It's not my fault I drew flings EVERY round 
(There were no flings hurt in the production of this film - none showed up or they would have been)  |

Hmm...geocities site has already exceeded it's capacity today
Champion - Melifaxis' Necromantic (Some Kinda Voodoo)
2nd Place - SBG's Chaos Dwarves (Schwartzwald Beer Gutters)
3rd Place - Raphael's Dwarves (Peace in Varsovia)
Most TD's - Bampf's Elves (Rivendale River Raiders)
Most Casualties - Robert Daniel's Dwarves (Dwarven Kings)
Best Painted - Bampf's Elves (Rivendale River Raiders) just edged out Zinak's Skaven (Skaven Scurvey)
Wooden Spoon - Garth's Humans (Buffalo Jills aka The Dirty Dozen)
Best NAF Rookie - Shane Yeager's Dark Elves (Moggra Corsairs)
Opening Round versus Opus (Mark Oliver) and his skaven squad, The Mouseketeers - Ogun once again took to the pitch and the spirit of this match was akin to the much coveted battle for the wooden spoon at The Rhody Rampage. It was a role-playing heavy battle where the skaven gave better than they got, winning the casualty war. But, some risky play along the sidelines sent several rats into the loving arms of their fans who refused to harm them. Still, I was able to capitalize on a numbers advantage on the pitch and score twice.
Final Score 2-0 (1-2 CAS)
Round Two versus Zinak (Kent Nelson) and his skaven squad, Skaven Scurvy ??? Victory can be attributed to one thing really, breaking his Rat Ogre???s chain. It must have been very intimidating, which is why Brian later broke an arm of one of my werewolves in the final Ok, so aside from feeling like an ass for damaging his beautifully painted team, this was one of those games that wasn???t a ton of fun as the dice were so lopsided. I broke armor constantly and every time Zinak tried to handle the ball it would squirt loose and land near a werewolf or wight. Kent was very gracious despite his ill luck and I look forward to a more evenly rolled match.
Final Score: 4-1 (2-0 CAS)
Round Three versus CyberHare (Brian St. James) and his amazon squad, The Scarlet Mist ??? This was about as tense as a game can get. One mistake on either side could have turned this into a win for either coach. I???ve been looking forward to playing Brian for some time and was glad to see not all of his ???zons were blodgers yet. The werewolves were effective, but it was Papa Legba that sent two ???zons out of the game. Without those casualties I wouldn???t have been able to stop the flood of amazons from scoring at the end of the match. Luckily the defense held.
Final Score 1-1 (2-0 CAS)
Round Four versus Bampf (Jeremy Smith) and his elf squad, The Rivendale River Raiders ??? I was nervous all night thinking about this match. I pulled out my first foul of the tourney early and got rid of his only blitzer without being ejected, and it was really the key play that made the difference. There were so many spots where side step could have been enough to break my defense. Instead, Jeremy had to dodge and his dice were nothing but CRUEL to him. At one point he had five ones in a row. Without the luck factor I would have lost this game. I fully expect Jeremy to join the NBA after this one???The elves tied up the casualties as time expired.
Final Score: 3-2 (2-2)
Championship Match versus CyberHare (Brian St. James) and his amazon squad...again!! Scarlet Mist twice in one tourney....cruelty! I laugh at myself for thinking the first game was tense. All match long I felt like I was playing down men even though my wolves inflicted an early casualty. The blodging zons were everywhere! We both scored fairly early, but it was Brian controling play in the second half. It looked like I had managed to hold him off and we'd be headed to overtime when one of those legendary touchdowns landed in my lap. Ogun blitzed! He crushed a zon to death freeing up the ball for Damballah-Wedo. He grabbed it and ran foward GFI'ing twice for a desparate handoff. Despite having only one arm (Brian accidentally knocked one off) Bako grabbed the ball in his teeth, dodged, and charged forward spiking it into the endzone!
Final Score: 2-1 (2-0) |

Thanks Jim 
I don't know about full marks, I can think of several things that could have gone better most of them starting with the letters A/C
The fellowship was outstanding the sportsmanship was indeed top notch! A TO cant ask for more from his attendees (just for more of them of an equal caliber each year so the event can keep growing). |

I always knew that I didn't want to play The Scarlet Mist in a final. So much Blodge! Those were two of the best and most challenging games I have ever played.
I believe the quote was that I had "a horseshoe stuffed up my ass." Lady Luck was indeed quite gracious to me throughout the tournamnet in the face of some great coaches! |

I basically see two choices...add sweltering heat as the starting weather to every game or get some AC!
Outdoor tourney in december anyone?
40 would be an incredible accomplishment!
I just threw in a couple of bids and will be monitoring them with interest. If those dont pan out I think I'll be sending some work your way |

I know I told you twice Rob, but again: thanks for putting up one of the most anticipated weekend of the year for me! I had GREAT time!
But let's face it: we all know this tourney is fixed! Rob plays the sissy Amazones in the final game, he has me and B uffalo-Chris play in the final game to make sure we don't have an all-Canadian podium, etc, etc.
But look at this guy...
Last year: 3rd place (NAF Rookie of the tourney)
This year: 2nd place
Next year... se the trend building here????

Heh SBG....
Was wondering if you get a photo of the Ogre with the naf logoed guantlets your friend took as his prize in beantown. I painted and if you can believe it i didn't get a photo of it for my web site. If you could that would be great... you could email it to zinak@zinak.com. Thanks
