And we're off! Summer is at full swing, sun is shining and NUL keeps on rolling. Season 35 has been started and matches posted on the forums. Play on, mates!

Barm the man, looks like we'll be going at it again first just like last season. After surviging the grueling Sankthans week, my schedule has opened up a bit, so I can offer you the following start times:
- Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday 18.00-20.00

Let me know if one of those days suits you, sir. Or rather if those suit the timetables of that little sequel of yourself. As to the rest of the week, I'll know about Friday on Tuesday, Saturday is definately off but Sunday should be doable.

Hey Saitani!

Are your Bandaged Ones ready either Tuesday or Wednesday evening, from about 18-ish or later?

I think it'll have to be next week some time if not.

Hey mr. Reedy! We're ready to sink our teeth into a new season, how about we look for each other in discord tonight (Tuesday) at around 1900 and see if the little one is in a cooperative mood?

Cheers,

Well, it was a weird match luck-wise. I was extremely lucky early on in the first half, getting more than my fair share of removals, and hardly suffering any. Unfortunately for me, Nuffle stopped having my back just in time for the crucial last-ditch blitz (1d w/o tackle against dodge which is a pow), 5+ pick-up and a throw-away. Even though I've clearly had the better dice for all the rest of first half, that round pretty much undid everything I had done that half. Also, every injury against the Khemri were regenerated (I think 4/4 in total?), so there was never any numbers advantage.

Being a bit grumpy about the end of the first half, I took a stupid risk early in the 2nd and got punished with an early turnover. After multiple attempts at throwing gnoblars at the ball carrier in the cage which all missed their mark, I was down to the last-ditch desperate blitz with an Ogre, dodging into the cage with break tackle. Turns out, he didn't need break tackle, as I rolled a natural 6 on the first try, and knocked out the carrier. So I guess Nuffle was solidly back in my corner at this point. Seeing as this was turn 14, and my side of the pitch, the best I could hope for was to hang on to the ball and secure the draw, which is just what happened.

So yeah, it was a bit of a rollercoaster, from being nearly sure I was going to be up 1-0, to a devastating stop, to being resigned to lose 0-1, to making an incredible stop, to the final draw. I guess in the end, I'm more than happy with a draw in a game I should've lost, all things being equal.

Thanks for the game Saitani!

Nothing much to say about this match other than it was pretty much living the vamp dream (or fangtasy, if you will). Nothing vital failed all match and the Thralls mostly refused to leave the pitch.

Thanks for the match and gl further on, JR!

That's no problem. Sorry I didn't see your message in time to play it today.

Would you be able to do Sunday at 20:30? If not, 20:00 would still be fine.

It was a fun match, but Gnaarkill seemed to be plagued by a GFI curse, and was often unable to roll anything other than a 1 when making these rolls.

Thanks for the game, Gnaarkill, and I hope you have better luck for the rest of the season.

Last match of day 1 played the match was a bit strange in that most things the orcs tried went south but if they tried elfish stuff like dodge and pass it succeeded.

Hakos played solid and made 2 goals one in each half but when rats have thicker armor than orcs the result can only go one way.

Thanks for the match Hakos and good luck in the future
