Hello Guild Ballers! Welcome to what I hope will be the last 2 games without much detail! I played on the clock against Tom Lacore, our new pundit.  I brought my camera hoping to film the games, saving me some brain-muscle-exercises, but Tom wasn't sure he wanted to hit the world wide web.  So I didn't film and now I can't remember what happened ... For our first game he wanted to beat me desperatly and I wasn't about to let that happen, but it did... Game 55: Brewers Vs Engineers 6-12 (6-8 then I clocked out and failed to make it more than that.) He played a Pin-Vise team and wanted to play against Esters. I believe I had 3 take-outs and had to swallow 3 goals.  I did attempt to go for a goal, but didn't even get to kick.  Engineers were cutting off every player creeping up within range to shoot.  Then after I was clocked out I was setting up for another goal with my first activation (6-9) His player blocked any attempt to make that succesful so I had ...

Hello Guild Ballers! Welcome back to my blog and bare with me for 4 more games, 2 of them will be mentioned here...  I took pictures of game 53 against Tom Lacore our new pundit in Gent.  He wanted to get punished by Tapper again and that is indeed what happened.  I opted to give another union player a go in the name of Harry the Hat.  I did like him, especially with rising anger, but I only got momentum from it twice.  I don't remember specifics about the game other than it was a very close game.  I also got some fragments back from looking at the picture below: In the above picture you can see I was farming momentum off Collosus, softening him up with Friday and getting Momentum with Harry.  I believe it is ratchet you see up there attempting to split us up. Below that group you can see Spigot in some rubble.  It was put there to prevent him from getting to Ballista.  But good ol' Spigot has his heroic to annul that, and was lucky en...

Hello Guild Ballers! Another Match report from a while back, lacking in detail, but it happened so I want to mention it at the very least... As this was played on february 1st and I failed to take notes, or pictures, this will be a brief touch on how I did against the Antwerp pundit: Dries Haemhouts. We played at his house and I was welcomed there with open arms by both him and his (then pregnant) wife!  Congratiulations on becoming a dad Dries!! My favourite brew was in stock so we popped one open and set out to play a game or 2 (on the clock) So here goes my brief touch: Game 51 My Brewers - his hunters (on my request) I wanted to field PintPot again after the disaster I had with him against brewers. Dries asked me what guild I hadn't played against much yet.  So I answered: Hunters. He fielded them, but I can't really recall what he took apart from Theron, Hearne, Fahad, Egret and Jaecar (I'm not sure but I think Zarola was his 6th player). I went with: ...

Hello Guild Ballers!! I know I'm behind on my match reports...  so far behind I have no recollection of some of the events...  But today I'll be catching up!  I had some notes, written down previously of my 50th game, so this might be an ok read...  Expect the quality to go down after this report though... I hope to make good on all this starting from my games I'll play march 11th in Gent, where I'm attending another tournament! Today you'll read about a drinking contest I had, kinda. I agreed to play another brewer team in my local gaming store.  I wanted a fun game myself so I decided I would field whatever my opponent did not bring to the table.  I also opted to stay away from Union. Here's what my opponent fielded: Tapper - Quaff - Mash - Stave - ogSpigot - Hooper. This was left for me: Esters - Scum - Friday - vSpigot - PintPot - Stoker. We rolled to see who got to kick/receive; I had to kick the ball towards him on his choice. I kicked with Frid...
