I had a great time. I'm looking forward to next year's event.

Yeah, and who was the guy with the "slanesh" army with the converted giant or whatever...the one who got first place in the painting contest downstairs???  Does anyone know who that is?  Him and qrab got their trophies mixed up!!!

[Solrac Spite King]

His name is Scott Walker

[DarkBlood]

It was a complete blast!!!  I'll be posting some battle reports later.  I cannot wait untill next time!!

Kurt, can I get his contact info...?

A good Tournament, well run, lots of tough games that were all fun! Don't think my hunt for your Tomb Kings is over Beaver! 

As a request from many of my buddies, they'd all like to know if you could post the complete results for both games with all the players listed (at least the Overall Scores). Many are curious as to how well they did and what to try and improve upon for next year.

The results will be up on the BSB website today.

The results are up now. Thanks again to everyone who came and make it a successful event! It was good to see some old faces and to make new friends.

Baby-Killers Sportsmanship Standings - Broadside Bash 2008

Robert Felix - Rank 1 (Best Sportsman)
Jan Pferdekamper - Rank 6
Carlos Gomez - Rank 1 (2nd Sportsman)
Robert Channel - Rank 37

If we're this high, you guys must be total dicks.

[Brynjolfr]

Um, ouch.

[DogOfWar]

I'm just kidding of course.

Anyway, in all seriousness, great job overall guys. Especially considering this is the first of this event. Had lots of fun and I'm looking forward to next year.

From a personal perspective:

Good Points:
-Gaming Experience: Scenarios were good, adding a few additional flavor rules but not completely dominating or interfereing with the game.
-Terrain: You guys did a great job. Everything looked fantastic.
-Scoring Breakdown: The breakdown and how much each category was worth seemed pretty good to me.

Funky Points:
-Comp/Painting Scoring: The comp scoring we've already gone over. Paint scoring seems odd as well. For example, a mostly-painted and half-based High Elf army scored higher than (let's say) Bama's Empire army that was painted by Bob.
-Bar: Wasn't open till late. Not your guy's fault, but just a personal complaint.

Anyway, as I said I had lots of fun and I'm looking forward to next year. Good job guys.

The bar should have opened at the same time as 7-11.

I am sure that this was NOT the case.  Unless a major error was made and both judges reversed a players name.  Unfortunately we had several Vincents and Mikes in the fantasy tournament, so I really hope that this did not happen.

Please e-mail or PM me the details so that I can check it out.

It shouldn't have happened as there were clear guidelines that we went by for the painting...not that something could have been switched on accident.
