Oh no they've brought out.. "THE MATH"
Like I said, it's not bad just not the way I would do it. As Zombie's math shows I do indeed put more emphasis on the game bonuses at the DB. It should also be noted though that at last years DB, as Zombie well knows, he only got into the Championship round because someone else didn't base their figs. Had he bothered to put a little flock on his bases it would have been a lizard team in the finals instead of Zombie's Norse. So it can make a difference. |

You're pulling a Chet here Galak.
You know full well that percentages can't be compared like that. It's not a 1.4% drop in painting points, but more like a 30% drop or something like that.
Similarly, the drop in points for winning is minimal compared to the total points allocated to that. |

Brian-
Funny in all of his mathematical analysis he forgot to mention that tidbit.

I actually almost did but i didn't want to argue for either side. I wanted my post to remain objective and only put numbers forward.
Because of my view regarding miniatures, painting, etc, i'm not in a good position to debate on the matter. |

Well Grumble, that's the difference between organizing tournaments and just playing in them! |

Zombie-
Does that mean that you are organizing an MTL Tourney as well? Let me know I might come up for that. Unless you are talking about the DeathBowl... which I believe is Brian's baby.

I might organize one, if the Double Bowl idea i told you about gets positive response. |

Quote: Only the official teams as of the 2003 rules review AND the Ogre and Vampire teams may be entered.
To clarify so there is no doubt these are: Human, Orc, Dwarf, High Elf, Skaven, Dark Elf, Chaos,
Undead, Chaos Dwarf, Goblin, Halfling, Wood Elf, Norse, Lizardman, Khemri, Nurgle, Elf and Amazon.
With Ogres and Vampires allowed as well.
Nurgle's Rotters and the Necro team are official teams as well, correct? Is this just an oversight, or are they really not allowing them? |

Nurgle is listed, Necro i think was an oversight. |

My questions were answered in the rules packet.
So we can't get tickets in advance then? |

I'll be responsible for getting the results reported to the NAF site.
Could one of you all work your magic and make sure the Chaos Cup is an approved tournament?
