[Loranus]

The True winners are the people who got drunk and had fun.

A lot of people got drunk and had fun!


Sean Nayden won with Dark Eldar/Eldar,  Alex Fennell was second with Necrons/CSM, Bill souza was 3rd with Nids.

Dean won player's choice, Ragnar won best sports.

Simon Leen won runner up.

Haha, cool. It would be fun to check out folks' lists if that info can be had.

I stopped by for a couple hours on Saturday to check out the con.  I saw that Alex was using the same Heldrake conversion I've been using... (Vampire counts zombie dragon).   What percentage of the prize money royalties do you think I should ask for?

The Missions were good.

Great event! More organized I felt than last year...and I had no complaints last year.  The paint judging was interesting.  Much harder to max out on points than other systems that I have seen, but still very effective.  I'm planning on putting A LOT more effort and design into my next display board.

Also a big fan of how the sportsmanship played out.  I was dubious when I saw how it was designed and pleasantly surprised on how it panned out.  There was just enough variation to show ups and downs and seemed like a very fair approach. 

While the GT was blast, for those that were able to catch the charity doubles drinking event that was on Friday, that was a whole different kind of win!  Already very much looking forward to next year for both events!

What was the painting system like?  How do you even know what you scored?  The painting judge told me I scored "highly" which was enough for me, since I'm never going to actually win a painting award, but I have no idea what that means.

OK, thanks.

The paint rubric was really hard to score high one.  Very very few people scored above a 20/30.

It was 14 points broken down for painting, 5 for basing, 5 for display board, 6 for conversions.

Hey Bill, how did you like the Mawloc?   I have been wondering how well he would work.
