A list is due in 7 days? I relooked over the rules Matt posted and didn't see anything about that. It's fine, just I bet alot of players don't know that. I'll relay the message. For those of us who live far away, who do we email it to?

Makari, do you have Army Builder? I won't be able to make the game today, and probably won't see you guys until next weekend? Anyhow, if you do have Army Builder, I can forward you my army file, if that sounds acceptable. Let me know if that works!

I saw your list on Dakka, Makari and I thought I would post here as well. I'm not sure which forum you see more often. As one of the T.O.s, however, I would be careful about playing in my own event.

Firstly, most organizers that sub in a judge or staff member to even the player count let it be known that that person is not eligible to place or win, as that could be seen as collusion or bias towards their buddy. Asking for lists in advance at all is a little suspect, generally between judges and opponents there is plenty of time to review lists during an all day tournament.

Secondly, this list in particular strikes me as difficult for anyone to get a clean win against. As a ringer, your job should be to give your opponents a good game against a balanced list. This ork army is not typical of the competitive lists at tournaments lately. We might be seeing more horde lists in the near future, but not lately. 170 models makes it reallly tough to get in a full six turns, so by the end of three or four you'll probably have a mess of draw at best.

The best events I have been to have all had one thing in common. The line between event staff and players has been perfectly apparent. When the line gets blurred the door is open to all kinds of potential abuses and even if you guys are perfectly fair, players will question everything, before and after. I would love to see the first annual CAG tournament every year, get bigger and better. Heck, it's only an hour from Dayton! I hope you guys will come up for some events this summer.

My intentions were not to win the tourney so if I do play no prizes for me I assumed that was a given.
I was only suggesting that if we had an odd number of players I would do that.
I posted the army so if there were issues everyone had a chance to see my list so as to not be shocked by it.
I don't have enough judges or volunteers at the moment to be able to go thru the lists and make sure they are legal. I asked for the lists to give me time to go through them on that saturday. My intention is if someone has some miscalculated points it can be fixed before the tourney got started so they don't lose points on them.
I was not aware that this is not the common thing to do for tournaments as everyone I had been in required them before hand.

My hope is that the odd amount of people thing won't happen. As far as the list goes that is what I would have used if I played in the tourney and is close to fluff as I think an Ork horde army would be like.
If this will be an issue as far as me playing or using that list I will do whats best for the tournament. I will check around to see what options I might have.

Thank-you for bringign this to my attention.

If you plan to purchase the army builder program, lists could be checked in a matter of minutes. It tells you right away if lists are invalid.

Subject: Re: Lists due TODAY! Sun May 11, 2008 1:20 am

We Will definitely be seeing more horde lists like that. I agree though, it will be hard to beat.

I like a challenge though Wink

I did in the beginning, but never have had any problems, so now I don't. The program is constantly checking for updates every time you log on. Do you have an example? I would be interested to know what they are, incase it affects me. Thanks
