Right the event is definitely on...
The rules are on the website in my signature...
I have no idea how many will turn up. If everyone who plays in our league turns up there would be 23 players already. However I know of a few who will not be playing...
I will also be advertising in local GW and local clubs...
As no tickets are to be "sold" I have no real idea, but I expect between 15-30. Useful Aren't I?  |

Well, its tomorrow. I'm almost ready. 8 people are confirmed Possible max of 25 
So basically I don't know what's going on. I'm fed up with people saying "maybe"  |

It can be hard to commit to a 24 hour event.  |

| Just couldn't avoid taking girlfriend to Heathrow, so missed the chance to have a clockwork orange like bloodbowl experience. |

Well, NAF sanctioned - one NAF member turned up - me 
However we did managed to get 13 attendees, and at least three are interested (in theory) in the NAF *because* it was sanctioned...
"what is the NAF?"
"What is ranking?"
"You have a positive ranking? Really?"
etc etc...
In any case by 1:30 am the field had been reduced to 7 valiant players, and I had lost 5 out of 6 games, and surprisingly not qualified!
The semis were incredibly tense, though in the skaven vs. wood elf game there was farce as both players forgot what half it was and nearly played 3 halves! Then after taking a casualty the skaven forgot to bring on their reserves...
The other semi was a slugging match where Dave Bone's orcs over came the favourites to get a sniff of victory! Unsurprisingly the skaven then defeated the orcs thanks largely to great rolling and sweltering heat! The fact that it was 4:30am didn't help! It was 3-2 with no orc turns left but the orcs nearly equalised on a blitz! Now how's that then?
Well it *is* possible. The orcs got a blitz and kicked the ball into the end zone... They then threw a goblin... who didn't land (ah...)
Game ended 3-2 at 6am - some then continued to play games well into the morning.... I went to bed!

| Good stuff! At least the fact you were the only NAFfer means your rating won't go down |

Hahah - maybe I might have beaten NAFfers - its just my league members I can't! - Well not with rubbish high elves
Actually I'm not surprised that only people from Sheffield turned up!!! Except my Dad, who had to go home at 9 after beating me 3-1 in front of all my friends... |

Yes - but I had 4 two dice blitzes on the ball!!! I can never beat his orcs with my elves!
Now he's thinking of joining our league even though he lives 100 or so miles away!
(You only need to turn up 3 or 4 times a season to play enough games - and the season is 12-15 weeks long - you can play 3 on a Saturday... 9-12 games is enough)
I hope he doesn't take orcs

| Let me do the math. One NAF player squared, times two. Okay, the K value of any game you played against yourself is 2. |
