This is the third annual Challenge of Q'ermitt*.
(* Q'ermitt operates under some funky Aztec calendar which explains why it has not been in the same month two years in a row!  We'll see if we can sort him out for next year!)
In this tournament participating teams will have an opportunity to span the globe, as they are transported via the portals of the Old Ones, to play in Blood Bowl pitches all over the world to determine who is truly the mightiest.
Players will have the chance to play on specially constucted boards which represent different geographical locations (e.g. desert, ice, goblin swamp stadium). Each pitch will have their own special rules (for weather, etc.) which will be included in the tournament package. The two players who advance to the finals will be playing in the temple of the mighty Slann, Q'ermitt, who (for reasons known only to him) is set to determine who is the mightiest Blood Bowl team in the world and bestow them with the mystical Plaque of Q'ermitt.
I have booked the same room for the tourney that it was held in last year (the Monte Carlo Inn - Brampton Suites). Kudos again to Ben Tusim for finding this location for the Canadian Open, as it is now the home for both of these tourneys. Great location, hotel above, and they will bring us beer and food while we play! Who could ask for more!
Date is set in stone - April 28th, 29th.
I will probably also be running the Stunty Cup on the Saturday night as I did last year. I will post a separate thread for that one. This one will be based totally on interest of people who are attending. If you want it, I will host it! I'm sure Clan-Skaven will be there to defend his Stunty Cup title, and will also be attempting to re-creat the feat of winning while being too drunk to remember doing so! 
Any feedback from those who attended last year that can help me make this a bigger and better tourney I would love to hear from you.
Hope to see you there,
Spazz
New Rules Edit
The following are the new rules for the team creation and skill advancement at the tournament:
Team Creation:
 Teams will be created at TV120
Inducements may be bought for their regular cost as permanent parts of the team.
Star players MAY be bought! (Q`ermitt wants to see the best of the best after all)
Halflings may hire the Master Chef at a cost of 50,000 gp
Goblin teams may buy bribes at a cost of 50,000 gp
Wizards may not be bought, Q'ermitt does not want any rivals present!
Special play cards may not be bought
Costs of Skills During Team Creation:
Regular Skill - 20K
Doubles Skill - 30K
+MA/AV - 30K
+AG - 40K
+ST - 50K
*Any one player cannot have more than two skills or attribute increases given to them during the team creation (or one skill and one attribute increase).
Skill Advancement:
After each round the T.O. will roll a d6, the result of this roll will apply to ALL TEAMS. The d6 result will dictate what kinds of skills are available. To know, consult the chart below.
d6 roll of
1-2 - Regular skill
3-4 - Doubles Skill
5 - Players choice of either MA or AV
6 - Player's choice of either AG or ST
** Players may receive only one skill from the skill advancement phase regardless of how many they gained in the Team Creation.
***Star players are peaked - meaning that the cannot get any more skills than what they already start with.

| I have booked four standard rooms (with two beds in each room) for the tourney. People should let me know whether they will be wanting rooms, and then I can make the reservations. If we need more than four then I need to know ASAP. |

We can have a chat about it this weekend, I think a bunch of the Ottawa folk will be keen!

Excellent! I know even the TBBF likes to get rooms there as it is so convenient! You stagger out of bed, come downstairs and you're there! Allows for tons of drinking without the fuss of having to get home afterwards! |

Yeah, I remember! I also remember wondering whether Glenn was going to punch you in your drunken face! You were seriously pushing you luck that night!
As for the farts, they were wretched! I think that is what threw everyone off of their game and allowed you the win!

I think they should change the name to....Yackermeister in honor of Ben"the fallen Jedi Master."
Hey Craig, how about I bring Terri up on the 10th of Feb. so she can hangout with Monica while we go to league night at Ben's???? |

Thanks for the offer Eric, but I am going to be my own odd man out in this year's tourney. I feel that i am comfortable enough with running a tourney now and I mean c'mon if JTB and Jones can play in their own tourney, then I am sure that I can handle it!  |
