Round one done and dusted. The next news update will be later tonight.
Couple of things.
1. I have switched off the stand firm dodge rule. So no bugs for the rest of the festival from a failed dodge perspective.
2. Let's see if we can get this round completed by Friday please.
3. Remember to have fun, even if things are going wrong. You never know what game snippets might be reported on! |

Round one wrap up.
Blackwater Blitz 0 v Dhingo Initiative 1
The defending champs are out, which might be due to fielding a less than full squad on the pitch and some shenanigans peeving Nuffle. Alas, the reporter got on the turps soon after an illegally call illegal procedure was called by the Blitz’s coach and as a result the whole crowd when and drank the club house dry.
Thinking that the cameras would have captured all the good bits, it was discovered that the cameramen also got wasted and all records of the game have got lost.
6 fouls to 4 for the winners and no deaths! Oh and Disco Dan was a no show!
Hngri-Hngri Lizzies 1 v Krumpin' an Splattin’ 0
Despite a good first turn and excellent positioning the Krumps’n’Splats could move the ball out of their defence half during the first half. Turning the ball over numerous times it looked like the Lizzies were going to score until they got he fumbles and threw a last minute interception.
The second half saw the Krumps’n’Splats kick dead and show aggressive defence, which unfortunately couldn’t pay dividends as the Hngri-Hngri Lizzies broke free and scored with enough time for the last ditch equaliser which was never to be.
Good win to the Lizzies with the 1 all RIP count in the Ogres favour who also put the boot in 5 times to zip.
Summary.
Excellent round of Bloodbowl with some unexpected results, unfortunate ends for some players and an exciting crop of new teams vying for the festival cup. |

ROUND TWO FIREWORKS!
Krumpin' an Splattin' 1 v Chaotic Celtics 2 (by technical concession)
Sirona the boot messes up the KaS with Cas
Not much more to say since having you team busted up by blocks and fouls in a desperate attempt to defend a 1-0 lead was an effort of Ogreriffic proportions. With every snot and ogre leaving the pitch the fans grew wilder. With every fumble and dropped ball the noise grew only to reach a fever pitch silence as the Celtics finally secured the ball in the end zone to draw 1-1 at full time. Wait, OVERTIME! Coach Lolvenom faints due to nervous exhaustion and the banned snot "Aaaah I Cant See" saves the team by throwing in the towel to save the Celtics losing to a 2 ogre team.
Morgwegian 1 v Billabong Bunyips 0
MOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRG 'n TTTHHHOOOOORRRRRGGGGGGGGG!... Fan arrested for stealing gold tooth from the cooling body of dead player.
The crowd right behind the Morg show today and shoulder it true colours with some decisive and cruel returns of the ball to play, dashing any hopes of a Bunyips victory.
Can the Morg train chug all the way undefeated...the pressure is undoubt seeping into coach rampchop's brain as the crowd's chants become an earworm.
Port Macquarie Timberwolves 1 v Ugly tripods 2
Benny big balls' destruction of Stag stagslayer proves costly as putting the boot leads to shitty kick being returned for winning TD.
Watching wood elves play dwarves is a painful experience and this game lived up to stereotypes. 46 blocks were just too many to give away with death and destruction overpowering some pure elven ass!
Ook Ook 0 v Dhingo Initiative 2
Jevouse shouts Ook as Simyins discover Balle2000 can teach old dogs new tricks.
Despite a solid proportion of the crowd behind the Ook's and singing 'Ook Ook OOOOOok' the game of attrition demonstrated that you can win thinking Bloodbowl is monkey business.
Woof!
Deadmen Wrestling 2 v Boxing Shadows 1
Coach Mushoomy's snub of Wizarding guild sponsors provokes outrage. Whether it was the heavy rain before the match turning his brain to mush, or too much drink whilst watch the Blitz v Dhingos match in the first round, the Boxing Shadows refusing the wizarding guilds freebies results in Wizard going on strike by throwing a wizbang for a fireball, nobbling the apothecary and cursing the GREAT BUT LATE, Sugar Ray Robinson!
It is questionable whether the Boxing Shadows can cope without their ONE MAN SHOW after his untimely death twice during the game.
In late news to hand, the Tournament Referee is investigating unsportsmanlike behaviour against coach RedMaul, after video footage of sideline rant leading to a SMILEYFACE play!
Only 2 more games in round two to play.... stay tuned. |

In anticipation of a top of the table Round 3 fixture, Thorg's Army have invaded the home town of the Dingo Initiative. They have been heard late into the night at the local pub practicing their latest chant. Sung to the tune of.

As a gesture of friendship, DIBBL would like to donate some bling. The Golden Jandal for the most SPPs (-MVPs) earned by a player in this tournament.
Ohh! What a surprise! We are shocked to learn that nearing the halfway stage of the tournament a player from a former DIBBL team is leading the race for this award. MOOORRRRRRGGGGGG!!!! 16SPP after 2 games. |

Defeat! Morg spent 3/4 of the game in the Cas box. His time there was lightened by being joined by Lighthisspliffson and Zara.
Meanwhile the DIBBL administration is shocked to learn there was no Waikikamukau award equivalent last year for the Twahnlow Fist (or Strongarm for that matter). They are considering commissioning some more bling to donate to SWL Fringe
Morg Leads*:
SPP 18
Cas 6
Blocks 27
Blocks/Cas 4.5
* Morg has played one more game than most |
