If this took place the weekend before or after I'd be totally game to play.
Also, where can we find the current standings?
Thanks, Scott! It's been a fun league so far! |

Thanks! Casey I have had a great time as well, we just need to keep the ball rolling 40K wise. 
Well doesnt look like your going to miss anything, looks like due to lack of interest (not in 40K by any stretch of the imagination we are looking at close to 200+ games now) for a tournament I might just have the top 2 or 3 slug it out for the Movie.

Hmmmm, I need to get in a few more games.
Had I known it was going to be a more select group I would have maximized the 500 and 750 point games. |

| If there's only 4 of us that's enough to do either two rounds or to do a round robin, which would be fun. |
