After spending 80 minutes in the car I turned up at 8:40, and everything was well in hand.

I have to say the tournament was very well run, and managed to stay on schedule, which is a great achievement with trying to fit 4 games in one day.

Thanks to all my opponents for 4 great games, and I look forward to seeing you all again next year.

Home at 12.45. I doubt I'm the last home, that will probably be Chuckles. Had a great day fellas, excellent organisation from Google and his team, really pleasant venue, met a lovely bunch of geezers, many of you I've known online for years but never met. Had 4 great games, even enjoyed being kicked around by Dizz. Looking forward to some battle reports and pictures, particularly ones of my Trygon and his collection of trashed ork walkers. Count me in for next year.

PICTURES!

I've numbered them all so that you guys can help me identify any names that they belong to (such as I've just figured out that SeriousCallersOnly has the white & purple nids!)

Be sure to post a short report of your four games in that thread. you can reference your picture numbers in your post and I'll update the pic notes. Also, be sure to upload any pictures of your own!

You're going to do something about Gravis' hangover?

Seriously though, everyone said the venue was great. Best gaming facilities I have ever been in. Hope you can do the same next year.

Really good venue. I work pretty close to it so have been meaning to go there for a while- wish I had done sooner!
I'm happy to help organise things for next year when the time comes.

Thats good to know! (on both counts!) I do want to remind everyone that this isn't suppose to be a tournament designed by a few... but should always be an event by and for the community here on 40Konline! Our friends at Bracknell Forest Gamers Club (which some of us are part of) have so far been incredibly accommodating of us and have been immense and essential help in many ways! However, there are always things that we as a community can do to help take the burden off the few!

I think we have hit upon an excellent venue that, whilst quite a distance from some of us, is certainly a place worth driving to! I was impressed by the range of tables and terrain that helped make each game unique! No doubt as THW grows this will only improve as well (which is exciting!)

I'll be sure to plug them at every opportunity!

Agreed, it was a great venue I'd happily go back next year.

While you mention plugging things, there is a two day campaign weekend in Bristol end of November allowing forgeworld and the chance to play on all kinds of awesome tables. Tickets will be up for sale next week and apart from getting to see me again (and I'm great!) its a really fun event and a good chance to play with things you normally wouldn't get to.
