Looking to get a copy of the team and a board if possible.

Hopefully you can hook me up Smile

I think there are more boards for sale. You will have to check with the powers that be to know for sure.

I directed Majortusk here because OMM had said any left over NAF teams and boards would be sold through the NAF forums ... so thought a thread could get started to see about getting them out to the masses unable to go the event while supplies lasted.

I'm assuming there'll be an announcement once Lycos and OMM have had chance to talk to each other after Lycos' break, and once I've delivered them to Lycos (yep, I have 60-odd teams and 40-ish NAF WC boards in my loft! Laughing

Had to stroll through TBB for a bit because I couldn't remember who posted it.

Here is the pic:

Please note that its a two sided board. The other side is a Street Bowl board.

Total production run numbers:
350 sets of the 12 man NAF teams were made
50 NAF boards were made

Not by the NAF.

The Spanish team brought their own World Cup designed boards but there were not official NAF boards. Still cool.

Well I again have nothing but admiration for all involved! Worship

I am also more than happy to sit back safe in the knowledge that this post probably takes a back seat to entering (and double-checking) all the thousands of games data into the NAF system and will be interested to find out any detail about purchases well after that laborious job is done...

I thought all the boards had been raffled and bought at the end of the tourney?

Only 10 were purchased at the end of the event. The NAF didn't raffle them off. They had a flat fee of 50 GBP for anyone that wanted one. 10 were sold. Darkson has the other 40 left for the rest of you when they open up the store doors (if I understood correctly).

A few more than 10 might have sold, I never bothered to count them - I just knew the suitcase they're packed in was bloody heavy! Laughing

Actually, I'm the one who took the picture of the NAF board...

Here are the spanish boards ;

And the Team Les Azes' one :

The spanish boards are for sale (I've heard about 50£)
Ours are not for sale yet (despite Jervis has signed them !), but maybe we'll do it...

Hi MT

I cannot believe you are selling your coin....

I heard OMM will hunt down anyone even thinking about it.

here is another one. I cannot believe you people. That was a gift and muppets like you are seeing pound signs. Truly shocked.

Sigh..... No, I'm not at all that fanatical or self-absorbed that I cannot see that one person's cherished keepsake is another's odd bit of stuff in a drawer, and that one's memories are the real valuables.....

And of course anyone can do with their property just about as they wish - it is the world we live in and I hope that those who sell the coin get all the market can bring....

What I do hope is that very few coaches decide to sell their coin and that they feel as the staff did, and does - that the coin represents something unique and special, and that the coin retains a personal value to those coaches.

I can also tell you this: the coin was intended never to be sold by the NAF - it was, and still is, the one piece of the World Cup which I did not want to have the NAF sell. The remaining coins will be used to honor NAF members who have contributed to the organization and those in the Blood Bowl community at large who have helped foster the game and its well-being and growth.

We will post either today or tomorrow the selling prices and sales procedures for the NAF World Cup boards, teams, pencils, Tee shirts and patches.... there are limited amounts of each (and fewer than what has been posted here....) and the process will most likely resemble the process that was created for the open WC ticket sales.

Should we decide to lower the price of the WC boards, anyone who bought a board at the tournament can receive a refund of the difference - I have the list of those who bought the boards and can easily administer this process via PM.

Thanks again to everyone who believed and came, and thanks to everyone who is interested in supporting the continuing efforts of the NAF through purchasing these few remaining items as souvenir or keepsake.

Well done all of us!

The boards will be going on sale on this forum very soon and so will the teams. As has been suggested on the previous page, we have 1224 games to check, some small races used to clear up, some other things to sort out from the World cup. Then as Darkson says we need to get all the stock together (probably at mine) and then we can manage the sale properly. And because I have missed 6 working days this month, I have my own day to day job to do which is extremely busy right now.

I am more than happy for members to PM me stating thier interest and OMM and I have started the discussion about how we will manage the process and collect funds etc. Please bare with us on this, we understand many are very excited about getting a very collectable item but if we do it too fast, unplanned and disorganised, those buyers only be upset. We are talking days though, not weeks.

Hey Jim. Those of us who bought a board, should the cost be lowered, could we use that difference in price towards buying a second board for someone else as a gift? I would be interested in that Smile

Thanks for everything!

Hangus, please see my comments on TBB. The event was wonderful and the friendships and memories are what are important to me. The coin would sit in a drawer/box and never be seen.

Please don't make knee-jerk reactions. I fully understand why someone would not want to sell their coin and I also fully respect that.

My search-fu is completely week as I'm unable to find the thread listing the information on purchasing one of the extra world cup teams. Could someone point me at the thread?

Thanks

It is about to go up in days Darth Noir. We (at committee) level are discussing how best to do this. There is a bit more involved that first thought but we are just agreeing how best to do it.
