Absolutely! We don't expect to get much more than 16 unless the out of towners show up, but that's a pretty good number for our first crack.

We are really pushing hard to get organized well in advance for our 2013 date and I think we've got buyin from our entire league for it already.

Thats an excellent outlook. But you may be surprised who shows up. Good luck, looking forward to updates.

Just got a couple of confirmations (barring bad weather) from out of towners. I'm excited to meet some new players!

My last email that I got from Dave (Da_Scum) from Edmonton a couple of weeks ago sounded like he intended on going. Said he intended on playing Goblins. I hope he can make it out to this and keep his 11 year streak on NAF tournaments going! Very Happy

And behold out of the wildness the Greatest...and most expendable and drunk...Goblin coach in the world did indeed make a return to the Astrogranite!

By cursed Nuffle those Calgary players are good, one can see that the video game has certainly encouraged a new generation of players to come out and start playing the great Board game. And it also shows that they are used to playing an AI...which time and again is why I love the human opponent aspect. Not just for the thrills, spills, and plenty of evil jokes and pints. Simply put a human opponent will do things no computer AI will think of.

I imagine now those Calgary players are going to be talking for a while about "THAT's a GOBLIN team?!? Aren't they supposed to suck?" Not in my hands they don't. Makes me wonder what the REAL results for the Spike! would have been in 2012 if it hadn't been for my employers at the last minute flying me out of country for a month. Curse them!

Best impression though I have is the caliber of the Calgary players. Damn they are good! I think if a few of them come out to the Spike! in 2013 you might see a serious shake up in the ratings. Hell two of them I think with a bit more board-game practice and learning how to play "Human opponents" could quite possibly be some of the finest World Coaches...yes gentleman they are that good.

It was a delight to be there and take part in a fantastic tournament. If there was ever a doubt it is the hosts and players like this that will always keep me coming back as long as there is a NAF!!!

Now to get some serious drinking time in and figure out how to bribe the women to let me come out to more tournaments.

Sounds like you had a blast Dave. I'm glad you were able to make it out for that. And Damion - going dead last at Spike! 2 years in a row to take first place at the inaugural PowTown = awesome. I'll be sure to let the locals know. Wink

2 wins and a tie as Goblins Dave might put you in first for highest ranked Goblin coach in the world! Shocked Good job!

And congrats to the other Dave (dsavillian) and company for putting on your first event. Looking forward to the Stampede now. Very Happy

Gj.

A good time was had by all.

There's talk about running a tournament during the Calgary Comic Expo in April too...

Results entered. 3 of the players didn't have NAF memberships, but we lucked out with the match ups in 2 of the 3 rounds (pitting non-naf against non-naf) and ended up with 17 of 24 matches being NAF ranked.
