NAF Committee Meeting of 3 January, 2021
Attending: President Nate, TD Phil, Treasurer Paul, LD Ant, VP James, MD Massimo
Apologies: none
- Database
Database update scheduled to be implemented. Rankings mirrored and split. New races added. Just waiting on green light from IT crew.
- 2021 Tournaments
Request of extension for Amorical Cup. No objections from committee
EuroBowl currently still planning to run this year. Will be monitored.
Dungeon Bowl cancelled for 2021
Eucalyptus Bowl scheduled for April 2021
- 24 Patches
Have received requests to extend the completion time. At this stage, with the advent of new races, the committee feels as though the 24/25/26 program has lost some of its relevance. The 2021 deadline for completion will remain in place; orders to be placed for new stock at the conclusion of the year. A small amount of excess stock will be carried, after which no more patches will be ordered.
- Tournament Series badges
Up for review. Holding for TD election
- Elections
TD election process has commenced. Purplegoo has declined re-nomination.
- World Cup 2023
Some early interest from potential organising committees. As well as early requests for World Cup to be pushed back. At this stage the committee feels it is too far out to consider a postponement while acknowledging the current difficult climate, booking venues etc. Still formulating a bid document, but no commitment for a release at this time.
- Gifts
Massimo just awaiting some proofs on final design.
- Thanks to Purplegoo
This one deserves its own entry. It is with heartfelt thanks the Committee on behalf of themselves and the entire NAF community thank Phil for all his hard work and contributions to Blood Bowl over the years as Tournament Director. These are big shoes to fill for the incoming TD. The committee thanks Phil most of all for his calm logic, his tournament expertise and just how available he has been to us all throughout his tenure. He, along with the team he has developed, has definitely streamlined the job for his successor. Thankyou Purplegoo.
Next Meeting – tentative for Feb 7th, 2021
Thx for all your hard work Purplegoo! Your expertise and leadership will be missed!
