@scotthartman well, I've already been roped into a meeting that runs until 4:30 today; likely won't be too ordo until closer to 5:30, depending on traffic.

Planning on playing my week 3 game with @scotthartman this week.

I might be closer to 5:15-5:30, depends on traffic and any late meetings before I can get out of the office.

I'll be there to play @Blustorm for our human league game. I think it's going to be the first time I've played Nate in BB.

I am interested, assuming it's an ordo league, but I do echo Burk's concern since I've got limited availability.

@Weav get the PC version... join us!

Another successful Ordo season! Congrats to Burk and thanks to Weav for putting in all the work to make the league run smoothly.

Do we have a start time for this?

I'll be there to help create human league players and possibly a practice game as well if time allows.

@Weav might have a high quality yet affordable solution for you.

For anyone interested, the next season of ReBBL (Reddit Blood Bowl League) is opening sign ups for the North American season (REL) reasonably soon. I've played two seasons there, Burk just finished his first, Michaels has been there for IDK how long (he's in div 1 this season); there is definitely some good talent to play against and a solid community of around 200 players in 14 player division seasons. REL is one game a week, scheduled with your opponent via Reddit/discord, played online in the PC version only. If you're interested you'd need a Reddit account, and the PC version of BB2 along with a good internet connection. Discord isn't mandatory, but it is recommended, it's where a lot of the community chat actually occurs. Teams start as TV 1000 standard teams (no custom teams), there is a pre season greenhorn cup you can build some SPP in but otherwise don't play your team in any other games prior to the season starting. Sign up for both greenhorn cup and REL in game, then wait for ticketing as appropriate to accept and join. https://www.reddit.com/r/ReBBl/comments/arxhls/the_greenhorn_s10s11_edition If interested, please go to https://www.reddit.com/r/ReBBl and read the relevant stickies/pinned messages. I'll reply here when sign-ups open. Feel free to reply here or message me with any questions. You can also check out https://rebbl.net for more info. P.S. if enough ordo folk (5) play we could do an ordo team for their clan league which is reminiscent of ofcc 40k team structure, but that's a different animal.

Hahahaha. Link to the coverage? Also, Blood Bowl 2 legendary edition is on sale for PC, $16 on steam. If enough of us get in on it we could get a clan (collection of coaches playing in a vaguely team based league format) together for ReBBL league or just have a greater ordo contingent than Burk and I representing.

We've never had a problem with it, but we typically use a champagne yeast, aim for 23-14% ABV by OG and target FG. Degassing, staggered nutrient additions, and good temp control all help them chug along to the finish line. I want to use a fancy honey, but figured we're going to make sure we're getting decent results with cheap stuff first and really dial our processes in well before investing in it.

Last year we largely used Costco clover honey, but did all gimmick meads like a bochet, melomel, or otherwise flavored mead where the honey itself was a relatively minor player. This year we might get a 2-gallon bucket of fancy honey from flying bee ranch in Salem for a traditional mead.

Unless I manage to fail in my final games I'm likely finishing 5th in div 7. Hoping I place well enough to advance to div 5-6. I need to work on my offence.

Yeah, he's beating face in 10G

Paid!

I'd be interested in playing the grudge bearers if someone can tell me what the roster is so I can be sure I've got the models to cover it.

Last year I made 19 gallons of mead and 12 gallons of beer (kit, no mash setup) with a non-ordo buddy. This year we'll likely make closer to 30 gallons of mead, 6 started already. We tend to bulk age it 10+ months after secondary fermentation before bottling. Fun hobby; lots of waiting with occasional checking.

Team created; more elves...

I'm seeing the league as a team creation option now. I'll whip up a team at lunch and get it entered. Not certain I'll be there by 6pm, coming from OC, but I'll see if I can pull it off.

Not seeing that league as a creation option on ordobowl. Do I just have the dumbs?

Ok. I've got two teams (pro elf and Dwarf) and a pitch. Will be there tonight, but likely have to leave the league come March for human league since I've only got so much freedom in the week.

I can try and take part, but I'd have to give up my Tuesday nights during that time. Any idea how long their league is running? I'm prioritizing human league in March right now.
