Underhill Uberchefs 1 - 2 The Bell Jar Utd. Mea culpa to anyone that had money down that I wouldn't score a TD 'at all'  Turn-by-turn playbook below: Was a wonderful first match for my fresh team. Could have gone better in some areas for me, had I not made a couple bone-headed moves, but just getting a TD myself was a victory for the team. Falc may have won, but he paid the price of two permanent injuries to his crew. And now, fun numbers for number munchers: |

TWO of my linemen went up! I must've missed Flint Ironstag punching an elf hard enough to get some SPP. So my two leveled linemen got tackle, and my thrower picked up sure hands.

No response from Ruvaldt  Sorry, I've been having some internet problems as well after a move. I'll be available all day tomorrow though and any time over the weekend. |

Awesome! How does your Saturday morning my Saturday night? I might turn up on your Friday night (my Saturday morning) if I'm not too hungover, but no promises... |

Sure, both work for me, actually. I'll be in front of a computer my tomorrow night and my Saturday late morning - early afternoon.

People, technically saturday is beyond the deadline.
If you can guarantee us you will play saturday I guess we can wait, otherwise we should move on.
Please note that I am sure it's not a problem to wait one more day, I just want to prevent people from thinking it's ok to go over the ninth day, or to have someone in the future push for the tenth (or eleventh) day based on previous exceptions.
Short version: can you guarantee us to play your game no later than Saturday?

I will absolutely be at a computer both Friday evening and throughout Saturday.
I'm usually pretty good about playing my games early, but it's been a rough couple of weeks and it sounds like Llyse and I were, strangely enough, both going through residential moves at the same time. We got together a week ago, but due to router issues we weren't able to play. Hopefully that won't be as much of a problem this time around.

I managed to level 3 guys, but 2 of them are MNG, so it may be tough trying to out-score the Wood Elves next week. However, my third guy will soon have LEAP to go with his 5 AG and Dodge, so he will be watching those Wardancers closely for tips!
Okay, so change of plan... my +AG/Dodge line elf just rolled 12. I don't think I can turn down the +ST can I? Even if he was born to Leap? As an aside, my Blitzer also just rolled a +ST, lucky for the impending woodies he is napping next game. |

Once he takes Blodge, give him Leap, then just jump him over people's lines and run touchdowns in. It will be like an assembly line. |

God fuck you all. My wood elves have leveled up a shit ton, and I've rolled 1 single stat increase, +AGI, on a line elf. Oh if only I could get a +STR Wardancer. :(

I can't even connect to the server now. Fuck this firewalling BS. Give the game to Canklebiter and move the league on while I sort this BS out. Its not like I would have won anyway.

Seriously. Somebody kill that thing.
On it. And I may be providing you all with a +str/+mv wardancer to chase around next season. |

I roll plenty of stat increases, but only on throwaway practice teams that just play a couple of public league matches. |

1-0 to the dead. First half was pretty standard fare for me (not able to bosh over his guys with 3 guys trying while he could knock me over with a feather), the second I rallied a bit and actually got the ball to within a couple of turns of the touchdown line. Shocking news I know. Actually I haven't played a single game since last season and I didn't have a clue what I was doing a lot of the time. No disrespect to Cankle on that as he played well. No serious injuries on either side that I saw.

Down to the last 6 players on the pitch the undead rallied to prevent the mighty stunty warriors from scoring a touchdown. LLium Crushers win 1-0. With a grand total of 0 injuries 1 KO for the undead side. 5 injuries/4 KO's for the Pympernels. No lasting pain on the Undead team as they successfully rolled 4/5 regeneration rolls w/ 1 badly hurt ghoul out for a game.

4 +1 MV, 2 +1 ST, 1 +1 AG, but only about 6 out of the 13 girls are original players.
One of my Pro Elf Catchers has +1AG and Leap, Dodge and Nerves of steal. He's pretty much unstoppable if he can get the ball thrown to him. If someone dosn't kill that ST 4 AG 5 Elf before he gets Leap, he'll win games singlehanded.

The Ex-Presidents 1 - 0 Alive Not Dead
A better write-up will follow, but the first half was one of the most exciting halves of Blood Bowl I've ever played. The second half was a snoozefest, but both Calvin and Millard Fillmore narrowly avoided death.
It's late here or I'd write more. The replay has been uploaded though if you just can't wait. The first half is actually worth watching.

So now all the games for day 1 have been played. We just need Falc to validate them and advance the tournament day.
