Me and Country Gravy have played and the replay has been uploaded to BBM. Required viewing for sadists only.

Got my first victory of the league as things went bad almost immediately for Gravy, with a Gutter Runner failing a Dodge on the first turn, followed by a torrent of KOs and casualties. At one point in the second half, he had zero players on the pitch.

The game just skips past your turns until your opponent scores and you have a chance to bring some players back on, I think.

Captain Shrek, I'm around this weekend if you are!

Yeah, you just play passing your turns (I think you could still cast a wizard if you had one) until the other player scores, at which point you see if any of your KOed dudes show up. In this case, three of them did.

Well, I had the second game-breaking bug in this tournament during our game with Garm. I received, couldn't swap my players off/on the field (thankfully without much disadvantage), scored in 7th turn. To my amazement, when I was to place my guys on defence, I noticed that I actually have all 12 my guys on the field! :MNothing happened during those few turns; when the second half started, I still had twelve players playing. I was going to make one rotter stand in the corner doing nothing. This didn't come to be, however, because after my kick-off the game froze in a strange way - as if it was my turn to do something - but I couldn't do anything, not even bring the options panel. We had to alt+f4 our match, which will be played again on Monday, I hope.

fucking cyanide.

MicoSelva: Replay: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/3613210/Replay_2012-10-21_13-59-30.db

So... I hear Ogres are squishy motherfuckers?

The game actually ended 1-1 because I a) forgot to blitz my ball-carrier in the first half and b) got greedy in the second and wanted to level-up my Flesh Golem, who of course fails to pick-up rolls.

Then he gets MVP :lol:

Oh, and he rolled 11. +AG Flesh Golem?

I'm attending a family funeral and I won't be able to do anything bloodbowly (validate matches, upload replays) until at least tomorrow evening.

Khemri/Halflings played and uploaded to Dropbox!

The Halfling Master Chef really kicked in to bite CS - 2 re-rolls lost in the first half, 3 in the second. I managed to sneak a 'fling around the lumbering mummies in the first half to run in a touchdown; in the second half, two of my treemen were taken out by rioting fans, but the third break-tackled his way onto the ball-carrier; CS tried to get free but the ball ended up with one of my halflings, who scurried madly forwards into the opposition half, only to be knocked down. CS had the men and the access to score but his inagile players and lack of rerolls meant he spent those vital last few turns chasing the ball around on the ground. Final score 1-0, only one injury (and even that was Badly Hurt, boo).

Barring a miscarriage of justice miracle, it doesn't look like the Team of Ultimate Evil will be making it to the play-offs, so thanks to everyone for a great league, and especially thanks to Mico for doing such an absolutely stand-up job running it. Good show, old boy. :salute:

Well, me and hoverdog played. Replay is on BBM. It did not go nearly as well as expected...

...It went even better than expected! 1-1 Draw with no injuries except for two BH :kfc:
