NAF Live: What's Next?
Hi gang,
There has been a lot of love for the NAF Live concept following the Dungeonbowl Dust-Up, and I've received plenty of messages asking me what's next. It's great that so many of you enjoyed yourselves last weekend and are enthusiastic about the format!
Our intention is / was to run something approximately every fortnight. That said, the next weekend on that schedule is the 11th / 12th, which is Easter. We've spoken about this, and we think that even in these crazy times where many of us are under lockdown, Easter is an important family time and membership availability may be reduced. With that in mind, expect a full announcement on the 11th, with the next Live tournament to take place on the 18th / 19th. It might be that we do slightly more than one a fortnight somewhere down the road to compensate for this skipped week; sneak in a cheeky one-dayer, for example.
Our next ruleset / tournament tie-in is a goodie. It's something a little different to what we usually run online (a new puzzle for you all to solve!), and we have a free ticket to the real TT event as a prize for our winners, so there are plenty of reasons to join us on 18 / 19 April. Start negotiating with those significant others now. :)
Cheers, and more comms next weekend. Until then, stay safe and well.
Phil / Goo.

A note to our younger, non-native-speaking coach base: Fortnight, as opposed to Fortnite which your little brother still plays, is what I think Shakespeare might have called a span of two weeks. ;-)
Forsooth I say! :-D

Hehe!
I actually spoke to someone recently who wasn't aware of the term, so it was probably remiss of me to use it. = 2 weeks (as you say, Verminardo), for anyone in a similar boat!

All great news, but I don't see anything about the lifetime ban for Justicium, just to give everybody else a chance.

Next announcement. ;)

As most of Europe is in lockdown, I had hoped for some tourney during easter... :(

Thanks for the update. Are most of these going to be 2 day tournaments? Or will there be an option to take part for one of the two days (I know a local tournament that does this). Not that I'm under the thumb or anything, but I am in no way allowed to do a 2 dayer!

Can't wait! :)

I suspect there will be a one-dayer or two in our future, Burt. There are some additional admin complexities with two one-dayers in one weekend or allowing coaches to play either day of a weekender, but we will look at it. I would imagine the majority will be weekenders, though.

I might organise an Easter weekend egg hunt. The most cracked eggs (skulls) wins!

Sad... at least we would have had something to for easter !! Looking forward for the event then !

I second the comment of Burtblahblahblah. Sprinkling in some one day tourneys would be great! Cheers tom
