Hi guys
FTF news
Okay around 10 signed up for a UK v US game so get back to me if you want to be part of probably the most manic weekend of playing your favourite game you'll ever be a part of!
Origins PBM Jury Members Needed
Origins are looking for three volunteers to act as jurors for the PBM Origins Awards. Volunteers need to know about PBM, and be willing to play 10 - 15 games (generally for free, though this is not always the case) over the next year in order to rank them. If you think you might be interested, please email Rick Loomis at rick@flyingbuffalo.com for more information, remembering to put Origins Award in the subject line.
We're planning our next Face to Face event in Cardiff (FTF) and looking for players that might be interested. This will be a points based - success system with a UK team vs a US team over the w/end. For those that are interested then get back to me in the near future so that we can work out interest and which module to run.
It is with great pleasure that I'm ready to test out on you all our latest module, Kin-strife. I'm presently testing the second game and so when we're ready for players to play then I'll be looking for new testers. Until then I recommend you sign up for normal games... 
Hall of Fame Updated
The Hall of Fame has now been updated to include games that finished between November 2009 and March 2010.
Of the 110 games currently recorded on the Hall of Fame, 51 were won by the Free Peoples, 57 by the Dark Servants, and 2 resulted in a shared victory.
