The Bongo Bowl is being held in Mississauga this year. The location for this 2 day swiss style tournament is:
Recreation Room
6699 Falconer Drive
Mississauga, Ontario, Canada
L5N 2E3
For complete rules go to the Bongo Bowl web site at:
www.rubli.ca/bongo-bowl/
A quick rundown of team building and pitch rules.
Coaches have the standard 1,000,000 crowns with which to build their teams and have an additional 60,000 crowns that may be used to purchase skills. You may purchase skills and stat increases as follows:
Regular Skill - 20K
Doubles Skill - 30K
+MA/AV - 30K
+AG - 40K
+ST - 50K
Any unused money from the 60,000 may be used towards Fan Factor only. Coaches must CLEARLY indicate on their rosters what their pre-game skill choice(s) are and who it was given to.
Also all games except game 4 will be played using the rules for the Bongo Chasm.
The Bongo Chasm:
The Bongo Chasm is located beside a great chasm, deep within the Lustrian jungle. Very
few outsiders have been able to see this field and returned to speak of it. The treacherous
winds and slippery surface (due to all the banana peels) have seen to the fact that anyone
uninvited did not leave alive. But now mighty Blood Bowl teams have been invited to
play before Bongo to see who is truly the most powerful.
The Pitch:
The pitch itself is located beside an enormous chasm. Perhaps the most striking
difference the teams will notice is that there are no spectators on the south side of the
field. While this may seem to save the players the danger of being pushed into the
crowd, the entire south side of the pitch ends into a chasm.
Stumps/Rocks: As the field lies between a Chasm and a dense jungle, the pitch has
stumps or rocks littering the outskirts of the pitch. Each player will roll a d6 before
determining kick/receive. Each coach will receive obstacles to be placed on the field.
According to the dice result they roll.
1 = 1 rock/stump
2-4 = 2 rocks/stumps
5 = 3 rocks/stumps
6 = 4 rocks/stumps
These obstacles can only be places on either short sides of the pitch. No rocks/stumps
may be placed in the middle playing area.
South Side Crowd Push: If a player should be pushed off the pitch on the south side
then they have been pushed off the field and into the Chasm. The coach of the pushed
player must immediately roll a d6 and on a roll of 4+ a Giant Eagle plucks you up before
you strike the rapids below. The eagle will drop you into your dugout and the player may
be placed in the reserved box. If you fail the roll then the player falls into the rapids and
misses the rest of the game.
3
Weather:
Being located within and open area beside a chasm leads the pitch to be subjected to
fickle weather conditions. The following table will be used while playing in The Bongo
Chasm.
2 ??? ???Hot & Humid?????? The conditions on the pitch is like playing in a huge cauldron of
boiling water. Due to this all players suffer a -1 modifier to all d6 rolls to be made on the
pitch.
3 ??? ???Torrential Rain??? ??? A torrential downpour is causing complete havoc! All attempts
to handle the ball, including Picking Up the ball and all Catch and hand-off rolls have a -
1 modifier. Only Quick Passes may be attempted. The extremely muddy conditions
reduce all MA by 2. (Adjusted MA cannot be reduced below 3). This type of rainfall is
notoriously quick: roll again on the Weather Table after this drive.
4 ??? 10 ???Nice??? ???Perfect Bongo Bowl Weather
11 ??? ???High Winds???- From time to time the chasm creates high winds or miniature twisters
that ravage the field. Any failed GFI will result in the player being pushed into a random
square (if the square is occupied then the player in the occupied square is moved using
normal rules as if he had been pushed. If a player has the ball and fails a GFI and is
pushed into the end zone then the player fumbles the ball before entering the end zone.
Only quick passes may be made. Kick offs and bouncing balls scatter 1 extra square.
12 ??? ???Mist???- The cold winds mixed with the hot surface of the field has created a mist
thicker than a Bugman???s Brew. All players suffer from Bonehead until the next half or
kick-off.
Kick off table results:
2 ??? ???Tribal Drums??? ??? The natives are restless (which normally means hungry). The
players are so distracted that re-rolls are halved (rounded down) for the remainder of the
game. Re-roll further incidences of Tribal Drums.
3 ??? ???Earth tremor??? - The Lustrian jungles are no stranger to earthquakes and the like.
Roll a d6 for each and every player on the field. On the roll of a 1, they are placed prone
(face up) to represent their shaky footing. No injury roll is made, but they must sacrifice
the 3 movement points to stand as normal.
4 ??? ???Severed Head??? - A decapitated head is used as a ball. Whenever a player tries to
pick up, catch or receive a hand off roll a D6. On a result of 1 the player is too revolted to
by the Head ending his action.
5 ??? ???High Kick??? - as per normal kick off rules
4
6 ??? ???Cheering Fans??? - as per normal kick off rules
7 ??? ???Changing Weather??? ??? as per normal kick off rules
8 ??? ???Brilliant Coaching??? - as per normal kick off rules
9 ??? ???Quick Snap??? - as per normal kick off rules
10 ??? ???Blitz!??? ??? as per normal kick off rules.
11 ??? ???Throw a Banana??? ??? as per normal kick off rules (throw a rock)
12 ??? ???Banana Peels??? ??? Those misfit monkeys have littered the pitch with banana peels,
making it hazardous to attempt any heroics. Players cannot use the following skills:
Dodge, Sure Feet and Leap. All GFI will fail on a 1 & 2.

This year is my 1st year back to Rugby in 11 years, so if I'm able to make it to the Bongo Bowl or any other Summer run BB Tournies I'll try... (with my playing Rugby again , Summer weekends are bad)
No promises, but maybe I can make the Bongo-Bowl or the Lakeside Cup (I really doubt both, but whoever's I don't make this year I'll make it a priority to go next year.

I think this is what you meant to say! 
This is it Byers! You are coming into the turf of Spazz now to lay claim to my throne! I have been nice with you before and allowed you to save face with a tie, but now comes the time when I must CRUSH you!
The oral sex monkey will be mine once again! |

You do realise that I did smack your arse till it was sore at the Qermitt in 07?
This surely qualifies as your own back yard, and it was orc on orc too!

But i will admit to the other two ties. The one against the vampires makes me ashamed  |

Craig, will you and Joe stop playing tonsel hockey with each other...Ottawa Pussies huh we'll have to put that one to the test, you better come correct or not at all then. One other thing Joe, I saw your glorified statistics, one thing was omitted from that though, I think it is your winless record against me!!! You will all be a battered mess after the next tourney,
With Regards,
Adam
PS You like the "with regards" because it's for your many losses LOL  |

The only reason that my arse was sore at Q'ermitt III is because you slipped my some rohypnol in my drink Friday night!
Let's be honest with one another Joe. Do you think I would put my full effort into winning at my own tournament? Sorry man, I am not as cheesy as you in that way! Don't get me started on your bending of your own rules at the first CCKO!
But my more recent memory serves to remember a certain orc team being unable to deal with a team of hopeless vampires at the Niaggoroth tourney!
Adam, you can end your messages however you want, but your attempts at diplomacy and formality are about as convincing as a chihuahua barking at a doberman. Go back to your kennel little pup, this is between the big dogs!
My only fear in defending my title as the Bongo Bowl champion is not that I will lose to the likes of Joe or The Pup, but rather that I am going to crush all my opposition so mercilessly that I am going to rob them of all hope and desire to ever play again. I will defend my Bongo crown with extreme prejudice. The Ottawa boys will be like smears oon Rod's shorts once I am done with them. Ben will be a husk of his former self, and the boys from Viagra Balls will be clutching onto each other sobbing when the crown is placed fimply upon my head once again.
If the rest of you guys want to show up to vie for second place, then I suppose it may be worth the trip for you. But the other trophies are spoken for: First, Best Team, Most Cas. Most TDs will be mine, and The Pup will have the wooden spoon.
Sorry if this affects your projected attendance Dan, as people now know the outcome, but I feel that people need to be forewarned in case they need to book early for their therapy appointments.
Bongo is my bitch. |

Did you get Eric to go forward in time again to get the results...because you saw how well that turned out...only 25% of trophies and not 70%. You may just be giving the Ottawa boys " INCENTIVE ". Which some people recently have lackd\ed  |

I have to admit that I was very skeptical about the Dungeonbowl game, especially when I had seen the new format of the board, but was going to reserve my opnion until I had a chance to try it out (I mean, no sense in shooting my mouth off like Rod did about LRB5, and then have to eat my word...... like Rod did with LRB5! )
Dan and I played a game on it last night, and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised! One thing that I really liked about the new board setup was that it allows a lot more opporunities for strategies and manouevering that the old one did not. It is not so easy to block traffic and totally grind things to a halt. The teleoprters played a HUGE role in our game, as Dan was within a couple of steps of scoring with a four man advantage over me, but a failed GFI, a bit of ball scattering, a lucky pick up on a 5+, and then a quick jump in a teleporter meant that I was now on the other side of the board and pretty clear! Good fun.
I am still undecided about which race to take. I have a couple teams that I started converting/painting, and tourneys are always a good excuse to get them done, but then I kinda want to do my Nurgle again and have them defend their title.... will have to have a few games with each to decide! |
