Nice roundup, halfling!

Also Zomb didn't just bash their way to second. We also had some default wins >_>

Also... holy Parklife FC. Someone needs to teach those guys a lesson. 10-0-0 is pretty good by any measure.

Well, we just got good news and bad news. 5-0 win makes it 11-0-0... but our +ST wardancer died, and our +AG catcher is -MA. (Which is admittedly less of a thing. That's still a good player.) Still, conference play here we come.

(And I'm working on the conference writeup... should be up tomorrow.)

Big congrats to Cyrus-Havoc who's White Isle Retail have just won the 22nd WIL premiership! Even if 2nd place wins their final match Cyrus-Havoc's orcs will be 6 points clear at the top. Nice job!

Meanwhile my fail-undead are in last place, with some hope of 2nd last if we can eke out a win in the last game... I think I may go with underworld next season and put Cold Hands, Dead Eyes into cold storage!

That is a mean team. Hopefully we'll see them de-throned next season, but congratulations to Cyrus-Havoc!

Thank you for those kind comments. Tackle & Mighty blow have seen us through in what I think of as the ‘old fashioned way’.

I expected to soon come up against the CPOMB but it looks like an influx of elves next season to give us the run around. Jock’s High Elves look a good bet for next season unless I can kill them all early on!

Anyone know when the current season is ending and the next one starting? I'd like to put my undead in cold storage and start up with a new race - just want to know if any races are oversubscribed right now

After 7 seasons in WIL (twice in the prem), I'm putting Cold Hands, Dead Eyes in the cooler for a while.

I've applied to WIL with a new underworld team (Speaks Softly, Big Claws). Are we allowed pre-season friendlies? When is the new season going to start?

First match in WIL Dragon Conference XXIII between Chavo's Barons of Blackwater and Ehlers'sEbil Zneaky Worzhipperz

A victory for the Ebil Zneaky Worzhipperz with 2-1 over the Barons of Blackwater

The Ebil Zneaky Worzhippers had brought the following inducement along with them
1 wandering apothecary
1 wizard
2 bloodweiser babes
1 bribe

Worzhipperz was to recieve, but it was clearly that it was long time since Ehlers had played a BB match because he kept shouting at his players to reorganize their defensive lineup. A highkick was made and so the match begin. A classic HE opening down the middle, but was surrounded quickl. Here the downfall of the Barons began. It was as if it was too early for the Barons to start on another season. The HEs had difficulties in throwing the ball, GFI and dodging. The first half ended in a 1-0 lead for the Worzhipperz.

2nd half and the Barons make a Blitz on the unprepared Worzhippers, but luckily the Barons just cant handle the ball. There is some strugle over the ball, but the Worzhipperz get the ball and move towards the end zone. Again, the Barons faliled their dodges which made it possible for a handoff to a bull (skill Very Happy ) and a 2-0 score. The Worzhipperz get a blitz and in their eager to get the ball a failed GFI put the Barons in a good position to go for a goal. Through the whole match, Nuffle did not have a friendly hand over the Barons. The lightning god however seemed to protect the HE as a lightning bolt was aimed at the Elf in 4meters away. Now suddenly it was 2-1 and a possible draw could be made by the Barons. Again one of the Barons failed his GFI and the match ended in 2-1 and the first victory for the Ebil Zneaky Worzhipperz.

Thanks for the match. The timestamp was not used and generally a friendly tune by both coaches. Even though, I dont blame you Chavo if you had made a few curses Smile

The quest to keep the dice: Round 1

This season the White Isle League is awarding a real life prize of a set of WIL Block Dice. With this being a prestigious prize and limited sets available, competition will be fierce. Thankfully I am now in the Premiership and therefore in with a shot of keeping the dice for another season. The quest begins. I shall have to be ruthless. RUTHLESS!!

First up was JigerJones puny Chaos team White County FFC, W.I.L. High fully anticipated victory here having bribed the ref, the assistant coaches, cheerleaders, apothecary, fans, babes and even the weather!

Victory acheived!, a 2-1 victory, a narrow win, we received and scored early, confident of stealing the ball and racking up the touchdowns. The filthy Chaos scum had other plans though and recovered a theft and made it 1-1, also blocking a OTS attempt. Second half we again attempted high pressure on the ball and were justly rewarded with the ball, a brief stall and 2-1. THe chaos then made us nervous of another score with a few turns remaining but thankfully their disgusting hairy beastman could not manage his dodges, you are not and Elf! hah!! The Chaos even had the nerve to try and kill one us the nobles but the apothecary earned his money and the evil ones were limited to hurting us badly.

So a first deserved victory for the glorious Noble Gentlemen of the W.I.L. High. THE DICE WILL REMAIN MINE!

Next up is the disgusting rotting scum, coached by an evil genius, more bribery and cheating may be required for victory.

PS. Thanks for the game Jiger you played well and had me worried.

Albion Brass Scorpions 0 - 2 Nafia

The tabletop NAFia's quest for WIL glory began this afternoon with a rookie showdown against Fantastic Jimmy's green Chaos. After a Riot robbing the bones of a turn, a quickish push forward lead to a T7 touchdown. Jimmy's 4+, 4+, 3+, 2+ pass went down; and 1-0 at the half was assured.

On defence, the NAFia went pop quick. Tomb Guardians were jammed in to mark players and try and effectively even numbers. The Sizzler failed a Sure Hander to get away, and then it was nuts on the line. Finally the Chaos got away, only for an effective 4+, 4+, 2+ to work for a Blitz-ra. Worked for me, didn't for him, 2-0.

Desmond Lineman grabbed NAF captain 'Dangerous' Dave Downes for comment, his response "Join the NAF, you Lapdog!"

Well, quite.

Despite my bad plays I still had a 3/4 chance of a draw vs the best player in the world, not bad really!
