'Last Ever' London Tournaments Friday 11th Dec Results P3

[Robert Swift]

Some of you may have heard that
a) I am leaving the UK
b) I have more space in my flat these days

These factors have combined, to inspire me to host my last ever tournament in the UK (until l come back).

The tournament will be in Rickmansworth, starting 7pm, Friday 11th December. Doors open 6.30pm. Food will be by way of extreme pizza interaction.

I already have confirmation from two old legends of the KOA, James Lockerbie and Simon Butt, who will be coming out of retirement and back into action after three and two year absences, respectively. I'd like to extend this invitation to all of the KOA but in particular to Waynie, Bounty Bob, Stainy, Sid, Trader, Haydn .... the guys that used to make these Rickmansworth tournaments great.

Settings will be World Cup settings, all slides on, and we will be using the Voitsberg World Cup KO2CV. If players are equal in the table though, we will use the UK rule of goal difference.

Sign up here....

CONFIRMED

Simon B
Robert S
James L

Sorry mate, I would have liked to attend but this is the date of my Xmas Works night out, possibly my last

Its also the day before my daughters 3rd birthday

I do hope to attend 'another' event before you leave, however, and I will win at least 1 match!

[Robert Swift]

Look out as I am in talks with Garry about reclaiming my KOBRA title, possibly that weekend.

[durban]

I will attend/win any event that isn't in London this weekend

[waynie]

Confirmed.

As it stands, this is exactly the same turn-out as my very first KO tournament and I got ass-banged by three very good players. Given that there are 3, 2, and 1 year absences from KO2 for James, Simon and I, this smacks of a ranking points mugging session for Robert!

Anyway, thanks for invite. =)

[Bounty Bob]

Would love to attend this but sadly cannot.

[Robert Swift]

Indeed a shame you can't make it BB; are you in contact with Gaydn Mr Bearded-Spock 'false Clooney' Hamm?

[gdh82]

As you know Robert I can't make this date unfortunately but great to see activity from the inactive ones! Seriously, have a lotta fun and Waynie - go get some revenge!!!!

Tourney added to KOASI.

booo, i cant do this weekend either . I would have been fine for the 19th tho but nevermind have a gud un

[Oliver St]

Hmm, that sounds interesting. I would like to come over for this special occasion of Robert to give him a special goodbye (similar to the last match at old Wembley in 2000 )

Is there any chance of accomodation in your almost emptied flat?

[Robert Swift]

JAWOHL! Get on the plane Stender!! KO2 Flat accommodates all visitors, even Germans.... but be warned, I am no Kevin Keegan!!! Forget Wembley 2000 and remember Munich 2001!

We were talking about playing Kick Off just this week. Haydn is keen top play but not with you. That is you, or any person that employs kick off lobbery. He was moaning, (surprise, surprise), about how much he hates KO lobs, or indeed any kick off routine and how they spoil the game for him.

He is very interested in playing a tournament where there is a rule that you have to put the ball back to your keeper after the opponent scores. Can anyone say GaYdn?

I shall certainly mention the 11th to him but I don't think he'll be interested.

[Robert Swift]

Well, I am quite happy not to KO Lob Gaydn.... but Waynie will be here. Twist his arm anyway? Maybe we could promise in advance not to allow it and then do it anyway, to have fun seeing how he reacts?

Really, I can sympathise; I used to hate the K O L but I realized that, if you couldn't beat em, join em. Am sure Waynie could give a tutorial. Worked for me.

Steve did actually put in some K O L prevention feature, actually. I will go and have a look at the Voitsberg edition to see what it is and whether I can turn it on.
