We must unfortunately announce a change of dates for the forthcoming NAF Championship in 2013. It will now take place on Saturday 25th and Sunday 26th May 2013.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused. The matter was completely out of our hands, however we have renegotiated for alternate dates and the new dates are immovable.
On the positive side we have negotiated the hotel discount we were to receive and as a goodwill gesture the venue have reduced the special rate for you to £35 for a single room or £45 for a double or twin. This is for 1-3 nights, including breakfast, next to the venue in a four star De Vere hotel. It is our hope that most people stay and make this an unforgettable weekend.
So without further ado we can announce that we will accept payment for the event starting from Saturday 1st December 2012 at 9am UK time. Payment of £50.00 should be sent via PayPal to the account thenafchampionship@gmail.com.
If you wish to take advantage of the rates we have negotiated with the venue's hotel you will need to book rooms with them directly. Please speak to them regarding any special requirements you may have, e.g. wheelchair access, double beds. Please remember that the discounted rate is only available up to 3 months before the event. To be eligible for the discounted rates you will need a code. We will release this code to anyone who purchases a ticket.
The first 100 people to pay will be entered into an 'Early Bird Prize Draw'. One lucky entrant will be chosen at random to receive a bundle of Blood Bowl goodies (full details to follow very shortly). |

It would be great to receive the hotel discounted rate code soon, so we could book the rooms now, since the discounted rate should be only available up to 3 months before the event. Has anybody already received the code and could share it with me?
Best

I completely forgot tickets were going on sale on the 1st.
No news or forum post about it at the time (or since) :/

Has the early bird thing been and gone? The full details seem to be missing anyway ;] |

| I think John's point is that info about the NAF Championship isnt being updated on the NAF site. |

| I agree, you shouldn't have to look at TFF for NAFC info and the updating to this point doesn't seem as comprehensive as last year BUT did tickets not go on sale much later (after new year) last year? So in a way we are still further ahead than this time last year. |

I notice that the TFF thread was updated in the last week, and yet it's still not updated here.
So much for encouraging people to use this forum. |

Seeing as no-one from the NAFC team can be bothered to post it here:

You want to be booking before 22nd February so get buying tickets guys! You don't have to pay for the hotel up front if people are worried about a £140.00 outlay in one go! Just give over your payment information and payment will be taken at the time of your stay I believe.
Thanks

Did you do that just as it ran out on purpose? |

| Nope, because I waited 10+ days from the time I first contacted Lycos about it. Didn't actually look at the dates until you pointed it out. |
