THE PLACE

Nine teams signed up so far, and no returning teams from last season have chose to join. It’s also a spectacular choice of teams, with a few duplicates, but not dominated by the traditional heavy hitters.

Yes! We have the minimum eight people I wanted in order to have a league this season. If you are interested in playing, I encourage you to get your team made prior to September 5, 2022. That is the deadline for team registration. Pod one of our schedule will begin on September 11th, 2022, with our first game night being on Tuesday, September 13, 2022. 

We are about a week out from registration deadline. Please register your team ASAP so I can plan.

I should be there and opening up, although i've got a zoom meeting i'll need to hop on for a bit at 4:00.

I'm also going to bounce out a little early to go see a buddy run a triva night down the road - but I'll loop back to close around 9:00 if theres no one else with keys around.


in the inbetween times I'll have some necromunda and warcry with me, and will probably just be doing some painting unless anyone hits me up to play something.

Work threw a curve ball at me and I won’t be in attendance tomorrow. However, I can stop by and lock up if needed, just lmk. I might need a mental break around 8pm ish any way. @ninefinger

That sounds like fun, even if I wasn't pinged.   I'd be in

It’s fantastic to hear from you, Steve! Sorry I didn’t tag you, I thought maybe you weren’t into Blood Bowl any more. I’m glad I am wrong. If you want to play, and I hope you do, please register a team on Tourplay (our new league management software): 

https://tourplay.net/en/blood-bowl/obbl-fall-2022

We have four teams signed up so far, but I’d like to see more teams and coaches making their intentions known for the fall league. The deadline for registration is 9/5/2022. This season, there will be a $20 league fee which is going towards efforts to purchase Ordo neoprene pitches. An item will be available in the Ordo store soon. These league fees are in addition to nightly Game Night fees.

I am looking for an assistant commissioner to help keep coaches on track and follow up on games that need to be played. If you are very communicative and like to be the bad guy, please lmk.

The results are in! After four hard fought games, we have a champion at Mindtaker Mayhem! Congratulations to Eric and his Shambling Undead for a mighty 3-1 W/L record, with lots of bonus points, for taking the trophy home today. Thank you very much to all of the coaches at today’s event!

Champion: @Eric Paulsen, Shambling Undead
Best Appearance: @Swensos83, Goblins
Most Brutal: @Keith Amberg, Dwarfs
Most Touchdowns: Danny, Elven Union
Best Defense: @kb10r, Dwarf

I have added a #mindtaker-mayhem_8-27-22 channel to the Ordo Blood Bow Discord so folks can follow the action. 

@BigMick37@Night-Queen the club is open. No one was upstairs, but if for some reason the door is locked, I’m at the White Owl across the street. Red shirt, iPad.

Just mentioning it's look like 430-5 arrival for me sir. I will check the bar this time when I arrive if no one is there lol.

I'll open the place up, and this time, I'll inform the WOW guys to not lock it when they leave. 

If we have at least eight players signed up by 9/5/2022, we will begin play on 9/11/2022. Two games every three weeks, no concessions except when you cannot field at least three players for a drive, and all players are expected to use the scheduler. I will not be wrangling cats this season, and I won't be following up with people to register. Games can, as always, be played at any venue, at any time. However, Game Night is often when most folks play, and that is Tuesdays at WOW. There is no universal communication tool, so plan on using this forum to schedule games. If I contact you to ask if your game has been scheduled, and you say not yet, you aren't upholding your responsibility as a coach.

• Rounds one and two: 9/11 - 10/1
• Rounds three and four: 10/2 - 10/22
• Rounds five and six: 10/23 - 11/12
• Rounds seven and eight: 11/13 - 12/3
• Rounds nine and ten (if needed): 12/4 - 12/31
• Round eleven: 1/1 - 1/7
• Playoffs to follow

^tagging recent participants and others that I know are interested or I hope are interested, but all are encouraged to join

Tourplay registration is open: https://tourplay.net/en/blood-bowl/obbl-fall-2022

I'll be there playing @Rory in a Mindtaker Mayhem/Chaos Cup practice match.

Is there a way to pre-arrange for anyone new to this community?

Yes! I hope someone sees this, and schedules a game with you. 

THE PLACE

Location: 717 SE Main St. Portland OR 97214 (map) - Around the corner from Kokiyo Teriyaki and up the stairs. Cost to play games is $8 for Ordo Members, $3 for Ordo Warlord Champions, and FREE for Emperors! As always, your first Game Night is FREE! 

THE MISSION

Games we play: All, with a focus on Warhammer 40k, Blood Bowl, Necromunda, War Cry, board games and more.

While it is possible to find a pickup game at Game Night, it is much better to pre-arrange a game before coming down. New players are always welcome, feel free to stop by and check it out.

GAME NIGHT EXPECTATIONS

Ordo expects a high level of friendliness and fellowship at Game Nights. Please be aware that the Czar has the ability to ask a player to leave if the Czar feels it necessary. Games are meant to be fun, so let’s have fun.

Wow, at 21 players!

Deleted, thanks

Sure. That’ll save us from having to do math later. Thanks!

So I figured out how I'm getting extra money. If you give a player a skill and then fire him, it reimburses you the value with the skill, rather than the base value. Whoops.

Darn. Well, how about I delete your team and you start over?

@Weav for infamous coaching staff and biased refs, will we have to purchase those in-match? I don’t see them included as inducement options. 

Those are not available for purchase

Tourplay team building is live now! Keep in mind you must purchase your entry at Mindtaker Miniatures. Only paid coaches will be considered registered for the event. Please only build one team, and let me know if you need a team deleted.

So sorry m, it’s open

One of the WOW guys might be in the big room when people arrive, don’t be alarmed. 

Hey all. I’ll be around to open up around 4p and get the AC units going. If the door is open and the lights are on, come on up. 
I have an early flight tomorrow so I’m looking to close up no later than 8:30p.
