On certain mornings, as the first rays of light radiate from the dawning sun, a long white cloud can be glimpsed in the distance over the rippled blue waters off the coast of the Southern Wastes. Tormented by the stifling heat and relentless dry winds turning their skin to leather, the Blood Bowl tragics are contemplating an off season going to seed and withering like weeds under a good dose of ‘Roundupâ€.
Then one day in late December a voice is heard drifting over the waves.
“Cricky dick! Bro, stop stuffing ya face with greasies and come here. Can’t be sure based on the togs, but there is some pakeha cuz over other side.â€
“Sheez Bro, you ain’t wrong.â€
“Now that Chrissy is done, you think that they might be wanting a tiki tour over here and play some Bloodbowl?â€
The sun-addled brains absorbed the word ‘Bloodbowl’, triggering an involuntary response. Before you could say, “couldn't see the road to the dunny if it had red flags on itâ€, all the blokes and mates got a into g, grabbed their gummies went sailing of to Aotearoa to find Waikikamukau and play Bloodbowl in cooler climes.
“Sweet as. Hey bro, rattle your dags and make sure the chilly bin is chocka with L&P, get your nana to jack up some savs and pavs and don’t forget the chocolate fish from the dairy. This going be a piss up large so better make sure that zambuck is around in case some dag carks itâ€
The Waikikamukau Bloodbowl Festival.
Rules.
Open to all SWL teams new and old, not currently playing in SWL proper. DIBBL teams are also invited to join. No TV limit and no age limit so whether you are a LRB4 legendary team or a CRP rookie you are welcome.
Format. Swiss chess scheduled rounds with seeding based on TV with overtime to avoid draws. Basically the meaner and nastier you are the more likely you will play together for the first couple of rounds.
The festival will use all the optional rules for Claw, Piling On, Right Stuff, Sneaky Git and Stand Firm. So any dirty fouling ‘flings and more than welcome to come and put the boot in.
No use of the time out button and you can have any team you like so long as you don't have revived players who take you over the allocated quota for positional players.
The festival management have done a great deal with the local wizarding guild and got them to sponsor each game with some special items. This is pot luck, but every team will receive 100 gold to spend with the guild on CARDS before each game.
Prizes to be determined, but as with all festivals, everyone is a winner.
Sign up here, post here and lets have a great off season blast before SWL starts afresh in 2017
The 3rd Waikikamukau Festival kicks off on Boxing Day!! 26th of December the day after Christmas |

Earl of Lemongrab (171 spp) will be playing in Waikikamukau. He expects to become DIBBL's first Legend during the tournament. And no stinky Ogre (169spp) will beat him to it. |

The Hngri-Hngri Lizzies have already made their way across the ditch in preparation for their now traditional entry into Waikikamukau.
At the risk of making this about players, Tamalli will also be making his bid for Legendary status... |

Seeing as I have quite a bit of goodwill from the other half re my SWL commitments, I think I'm best not to push my luck in signing up for a scheduled league during the annual holiday at the in-laws.
One day Waikikamukau, one day. |

I'll throw in Remember Failure, if they can remember how to play. They're already in the group, is posting here enough or do we have to do something else to get on the list? |

How NOT to play, you mean.
You sign up right here, if you're already an SWL Fringe team. |
