AusBowl

Just want to echo these thoughts, huge thanks to Adam and Casper for the event.

Definitely going to try to make the next one, but with my wedding a month prior, it may be tight...

Yeah, but Sister's place is cheaper...

Annual leave booked, flights paid for. Most likely staying with my sister, unless I can save enough cash for a hotel...

Butt into gear? Flights already booked! Just waiting for ticket sales to open.

So now that we have actual results instead of speculation, how did everyone do with their picks? WA finished much higher than everyone thought, and here's a fun fact for you: The worst WA did when I was in the team was fourth at Ausbowl 1 in Sydney. Goes to show that I really should be an auto inclu...

A little late, but never too late. After the first Ausbowl in Sydney, I wasn't sure if I would ever make it to another one. A horrible showing, followed by a few years of poor decisions and worse playing. I have tried to up the ante, particularly in the last 12 months, and found more through luck th...

And I'll be trying to get a group of WA folk over as well.

To be honest, I haven't been enjoying Blood Bowl a whole lot lately, but when tasked with going to Adelaide for a catch up with family, my first idea was SSB weekend. I've enjoyed the weekend that much that not only am I planning on returning next year, I've also decided to return to the forums afte...

Really enjoyed this Sandgroper (possibly due to my PB finish). Was great to play three great guys from over east, it always tends to improve my game. I wrote a bit of a review of my Sandgroper experience in a new e-mag I have started - you can check it out at the Elarti website ( www.elarti.com ). J...

Nope... Not going to get involved in that debate...

Damn... that looks like a great miniature... and then the Casper head gets added... :eek: Now the hard choices... do I SSB, or do I get a mule? U SSB AND WE HAVE ANOTHER GRUGDE MATCH :D and if u dont want ur inlaws to know ur coming over this time u can always stay at my place..... It's just a bit ...

Now the hard choices... do I SSB, or do I get a mule?

So it seems to me that one of the issues is really a lack of information on how the team goes? At the Rock'N'Rumble League here in Perth, we've decided to give them a bit of a test run. We've also decided the League into a 'Rookie League' and a 'Veteran League'. It was my job to play some Exhibition...

League play is one thing, but tournament is something else. Considering NAF rank tournaments, not leagues, shouldn't that get more of a push?

Kind of funny that this is kinda 50/50 split... Yes and no, it's fairly even. I voted yes, but can see why people won't want it. At the end of the day, if we want some balanced lists, the best way to do it is to start using it at places like EucBowl...

Sure, I'll start a kickstarter... Get Ratt to EucBowl...

Ratt - You know you'll kick yourself if you miss out! 2014 is going to be our biggest year yet, we've got something huuuuuuge planned for our 10th year

That's why I want to make every attempt. Time's booked off of work, did that when I got back last year. Just the funds stuff

I'm in an in-out-in-out cycle at the moment. Right now the trip is at: -

Hoping I can wrangle it... Had a ball last time, would love to go again!

Whatever the reasons behind Virral's stance, a quick comment even to the point of 'Hey, can we discuss this elsewhere?' Might have gone a long way to resolve it. And I think that at least one of Virral's points - the part that says we have been making miniatures, but nowhere can be found who we is -...
