Let's face it, the NFL sucks. I'd watch a pre-season CFL game over the Superbowl anyday. American football is just boring. You know who's gonna win by halftime.
Oh, and i dare you to ban me! |

The fact that this tournament was on Grey Cup weekend was ONE of several reasons I decided not to go (sorry Zombie!). In fact, I just got myself some tickets for $50 each so I extra glad that I pulled out!
I go see the Bills every year, but the Grey Cup is the Grey Cup! It is a WEEK of partys! *Sigh*, I love football........ |

Here's a question: Is BB more similar to the CFL or the NFL? There ARE only 11 players (NFL) but this is also the same as soccer. The ratio of the dimensions of the field are closer to those in the CFL but the end zones are not very deep (NFL).
Uh, oh! I guess this shouldn't be in THIS thread... sorry!...  |

| 11 players on the field, no yard between offensive and defensive line, drives that are nearly impossible to stop, kicking game almost non-existant... definitely American football. Besides, by his own admission, Jervis didn't even know that Canadian football existed when he invented Blood Bowl. |

Unfortunately, I will not be able to make it out to this one (I promised the GF no more tourneys this year).
But if you will be holding this in New York next year, then maybe I can swing that - will have to wait and see!
Sorry to miss out on the fun!

I am very sorry that I couldn't make it to the 2nd day of the tournament. I work nights, and when I went home Saturday night my body absolutely refused to fall asleep. There was no way I was going to be able to drive an hour to Ann Arbor, play in a tourny, and drive back.... I finally fell asleep about kick-off time.... 
I hope you all had a great time, I know I did. Congrats to the winner. I hope to see you all at another tourny soon.

as far as I know, I was meaning to get a list of the winners before I left. Here is as far as I know for the final tally.
1. Absent (Jim B.) won the tournament with Orcs.
2. Solomon ??? (Wood Elves)
3. Phil ??? (orcs)
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11 Eric (Halfling)
12 Andy W (Khemri)
I do know this, there was a ton of bashy teams there.
2 Chaos Dwarf Teams
2 Dwarf Teams
4 Orc Teams
1 norse
1 halfling
1 Wood Elf team
1 Khemri
prizes given out.
1 GW studio painted mini Elf Cheerleader (will have pix soon of it)
2 Studio signed Fanatic Magazines #6 (one is a misprint)
a squad of Brand new Human minis (the ones coming out this spring)
a squad of Phils Boars
1 lizardman Cheerleader
1 Rez Gutterrunner
1 limited signed print of the deathroller on the cover of Fanatic #6
1 brand new Skaven Assassin (the one coming this spring)
1 Brand new Deathroller
Also John Lewis (former NAF president) was awarded a plaque for is efforts and dedication to the NAF and its members.
The Awards given out
1 place (jim) 2nd place (Solomon) 3rd place (Phil)
Best Sportsman (eric)
Most Casualties (Andy)
I ended up winning the most casualties  but lost it all 
was a horrible weekend for the Tombstone Krushers, think this is the worst I have preformed in a tourney but I had a good time. Everyone was extremely fun. just wish my luck came with me.
Game 1: Dwarves loss
Game 2: Halfling win
Game 3: Norse loss
Game 4: Chaos Dwarf loss
Game 5: Orc loss
Game 6: Chaos Dwarf loss
The real kicker was that since I came so close to winning best painted at the Chaos Cup, I worked my arse off making a new display base for my Khemri Team to try to guarantee the win, and it wasnt even a category
maybe when i head to TKC. See how I do down there. |

yeah  3rd tourney actually (went 2-2 at a golden skull with pro elves)
the orcs is doin good for me
I didn't really deserve the win, Sol (2nd) beat me heads up, and was 4-1-1
and i was 4-2
got it done with soft points, by 5 points 
and Xtreme(4th i think) was 4-1-1 as well and beat me, but i guess thats the way it goes sometimes. |

Is that points for sportsmanship/painting/etc.?
*sigh* I am from the camp that the 'winner' should be the last team standing, and that sportsmanship/painting'etc. should be seperate awards... |
