So for all my #Nerdlings - the #BloodBowl nerds have been losing their minds over this:

TL;DR (or summary for your entertainment) in the following toots. 🧵 1/?
Had a #BloodBowl7s tournament in #Amsterdam and we brought treats (picture). I took my unused dwarves (pictured here bullying Amazons), which I never had any intention of playing.
This is because playing against them is a boring grind and reportedly playing with them too, and I am happy to report that I shan't be grabbing them any time soon again and I am not a horrible person. Not that horrible.
The record shows 1/1/2 and boredom.
And the big guy, plus my attempted group shot.
*All credit for the clever name to Loading Ready Run from their occasional wrestling show. The show itself isn't my jam, but the flow of the phrase "Autumnal Rumble" has stuck tight in my head just from seeing it in passing.
The Autumnal Rumblers are complete. The design of these really is lovely and I'm not sure I did them justice, but I'm still glad I went for it. I love how strange and hard to describe the whole aesthetic is. Dryadpunk? Transelvenism?
#Thrudball retrospective 🧵 12/12
Some personal successes:
-the goodie bag and anniversary swag and anniversary Thrud models gave us a 150 line, 18 column Excel sheet and who picks up what for whom? Organised that to be arranged in 60m.
- instant coffee all weekend? No!🤮 Siouxsies Badger coffee van (Swindon area) provided. Can't recommend enough.
Fun was had. Would and WILL organise again with some minor adjustments!

Apart from some things like people being unable to leave the premises at night and again a deplorable state of the Shared hygiene facilities, this was a succesful event. We raked up a total of £17.000, to be split between Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation and MIND.
The feedback form able to tell us it's us that made the event so good. I beg to differ:the attendants make it a success!

What Thrudball is also good at, is extorting money from people to donate to #charity. We've got the Orction, an auction run by the lovely Landrover (Dan), in which we sell off to the highest bidder all manner of rare or unique or just desirable #BloodBowl teams, pitches, dice, models, memorabilia and other collectibles donated by the community. There's also mini games, cake sales etc

Anyway, the games played went off uneventfully. And that's great, because uneventful means fair. Lots of people were having a lot of fun, and Thrudball is GOOD at fun. Only one coach didn't enjoy their Saturday games and got really salty so we checked with their last opponent if they were okay, which was massively appreciated. All to keep everyone safe and happy.
