Adran Posted November 5, 2014 Report Share Posted November 5, 2014 Kentish All Stars Pool 1. Ben " Thanet must do better than Canterbury" Crowe. I think the pressure from all the canterbury lads will spur him on. (also only Kent presence in pool 1) Pool 2 Joe " give me more stalkers " Wood Hard man to beat on any day. Pool 3 James "insert funny name "Reeves Tough pool here, all 4 lands of Kent have it in them to get 5 or 6 wins. I ruled out Jake as hes Thanet, the others were a toss up, and out of the 3 James has the slightly easier round 1 I think. (well, Dave only has to face Ben, but local derbys can easily ignore the form books) Pool 4 Austin" see which Austin turns up" Capewell On his day can play a very good game. On someone elses day can manage to grasp defeat from almost any position Pool 5 Adam Wheeler (I don't recognise any of them, but from their rankings, it looks like he has got nearest to Kent, having played at Pubfaux) Expect a paypal shortly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerHarris Posted November 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 OK, final final pools now posted. Matt Cole has dropped out (pool E) and been replaced with Jakob Sennett (pool D). Chris King has dropped out (pool D) and as his ticket is currently unclaimed, I've had to add the ringer Matt Spooner (pool E) to keep the numbers up. Mr Marshall has already said Spoons will be finishing last so for God's sake don't actually pick him! Everyone's free to change their pools up until round 1 starts on Saturday morning - just please put it in writing! I'll have some bits of paper with me for on-the-day entrants, as well as a list of pledges to collect from. Stats will go up tomorrow for extra mockery, although seeing as half the field has chosen themselves I've been denied that pleasure...

Clousseau Posted November 6, 2014 Report Share Posted November 6, 2014 I've not chosen myself, and neither has anyone else. I suppose I should feel sad about that, but no pressure anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Ruckuss Posted November 9, 2014 Report Share Posted November 9, 2014 Think mike might have this- Crowe and bursnel......?! Great shout mate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike3838 Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 The biggest gains in getting minimal points will be from picking players in pools D and E that ended up coming mid-table or better, I think. Those will be the deciders, rather than the relatively small place changes in the top two groups... Eg I think Andy Winton did pretty well(?), so someone backing him will be -30 odd vs somebody who didn't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PanzerHarris Posted November 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 So with the event run and done, the results of the sweepstake are in! We had 46 entries - massive thanks to everyone who took the time to have a go! It's been fun running it and hopefully we can repeat at the next big Malifaux event. 46 entries meant a prize pool of £92, divided up as follows; £46 straight to Wargamers Against All Cancer £23 to the winner £11.50 to second place £5.75 to third place £5.75 to the wooden spoon Without any further ado, the winners of the #M2GT sweepstake are; 1st: Connor 'People's Hat' Barker, with 89 points!

A: Ant Hoult (20) B: Matt Ledgerwood (58) C: Jan Prouldey (53) D: Liam Hall (64) E: Adam Boyes (65) Turns out your ideal team would have been; A: Ben Crowe (1) B: John Wharton (2) C: Chris Hay (13) D: Steve Revis (10) E: Nathan Chenery (42) And this would have scored 68 points. The nightmare team; A: Paul Campbell (21) B: Matt Ledgerwood (58) C: Brooks Martin (62) D: Liam Hall (64) E: James Winton (66) Kudos to Bob for nailing most of those selections and coming very close to the worst possible score of 271. The Most Wanted players; Pool A Greg Piskosz, selected 11 times Ant Hoult, Ben Crowe and Rob Smith all selected 8 times Pool B Martin Wodehouse, selected 9 times Luke Cocksedge and Matt Ledgerwood, both selected 8 times Pool C Adam Hutchinson, selected 7 times Chris Hay, selected 5 times Tim Brown, selected 4 times Pool D Aaron Bailey, selected 8 times Austin Capewell and Nate Zettle, both selected 7 times Pool E Nathan Chenery, selected 14 times Adam Boyes and James Winton, both selected 8 times Overall 'Most Wanted' Nathan Chenery, 14 selections Greg Piskosz, 11 selections Martin Wodehouse, 9 selections Honourable mention to Aaron Bailey, who managed to finish up in 4th and 5th place despite picking himself twice!

Adran Posted November 10, 2014 Report Share Posted November 10, 2014 I don't have everyones entries, but the best possible score is 68, and the worst possible is 271 by my calculations. The pool ranges were Pool A 1-21 Pool B 2-58 pool C 13-62 Pool D 10-64 Pool E 42-66 I ended up with a disapoointing 165. Good choices on C and D probably will get the winner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
