MAD has been...and gone!

And what a day it was too.

We started off with 60 doughnuts and finished it with 4: a superb result I think you'll agree. Oh the Event? Ah yes now that was a cracker.

It's at this point that I have to admit to taking my camera and then completely forgetting to take it out of the bag once I got caught up in the day. I know some cameras were in attendance so will try to track down some shots.

The hall looked splendid with 20 tables and 40 players all raring to go once Steve from Triple had carried out his safety briefing. We had representatives from most of the Codex although notable by their abscence were Black Templars, Daemons, Tau and Sisters. Maybe next time eh?

Everyone played in a superbly relaxed manner and we only had a few genuine rules queries to contend with all day. A special thanks to all the players for the manner in which they approached this non-rankings (there's an argument for another day) event.

So the results?

Winner: Kevin Sharpes (Grey Knights)
Runner-Up: Steve Pearce (Chaos Marines)
Third: Simon Priddis (Orks)
Best Army: Darren Ivey (Tyranids)
Most Sporting: Andy Barnett (Imperial Guard)

Thanks to Charlotte for the chilli, for everyone at Triple for their hospitality and for the event team for their invaluable help setting up and running the event. Nicely done everyone.

On to the next one :-)
