Holy crap, what a weekend! Thank you so much Mike, Ally, the rest of the Nexus staff and of course Shannon. I'm honored to have placed where I did among such great players and people. In the end, Matt's creepy, stinky, army of the dead was too much for even the prodigious amounts of firepower the Hunter Contingent can put out. What a great series of games!
I'll be uploading the photos I took soon. I have around 100 to sort through, so give me a bit of time.

The hard side of your board was just withering in the firepower.

Yeah, it'd suck and I wouldn't have anyone to blame but this asshole, but lets be honest here. I'm playing CSM; the likelihood of me getting best overall has a lot to do with some planets aligning. oh you

Here's some pictures from the weekend. Looks like the focus was a bit off for many of the army shots, my bad. Borrowed my mom's camera and didn't really learn how to use it! The album is not public on Imgur, so it won't be published on their pages. I tried to get everyone's army, and a couple play shots. Of course there is a couple more of mine than anyone else's, but most of my games went right to the 10 minute mark, and most people had finished by then. imgur.com/a/PWyQN

Awesome pictures. Really like the one of me carrying McDs into the store . There were some really nicely painted models there. Glad you got shots of more of the armies, always nice to see pictures of them on their boards! I'm calling that planet alignment the Nurgle Rainbow.

Awesome pictures! I like the one of Shannon that he seems to be saying "ok, fuckers, listen closely".
And Justin, I can't in good conscience call it anything but that, big thanks to all of my opponents for making me play to the limit of my abilities.

I wasn't exactly saying it like that...lol... close... this was one of the smoothest running tournies I've done, and it's thanks to all of you... any issues were dealt with quickly and amicably... the tables were clean and organized by the time prizes were announced, so after tourney clean up was minimal. Everyone seemed to have a good time... and the prize pool was pretty awesome! EDIT: I haven't seen a full breakdown posted yet Jordan, just the individual games are up.
