Michael and I are discussing this and are seeking feedback from the members. When the original suggestion was brought up it seemed like a good idea since we want to reward the best players in this league but I honestly did not think about the flip side (ie it is damn hard to win in this league) and that should be respected too. @_Rain sent out a questionnaire so we will look at the results and comments and make sure we do what our members ask us to do. More to come.
This is an awesome group of people and players so I appreciate the candid feedback and we can adjust if we need to Still 3 more weeks to qualify :).
wait these are real people?
pretty sure @jujube is a bot
If @jujube is a bot she would be the Terminator.
I’ll be back.
Candid feedback
After a good night’s sleep, what thoughts surfaced in the minds of the warriors
regarding this topic?
The USMC boot camp to sift out the best of the best.
The TOC the best of the best.
Seems, allowing a couple of players that didn’t make the cut in, will create a tournament
no longer true to its name.
I want to thank all the great players in this league, Nordic Warriors has become exactly what I wanted it to be. Everyone that knows me well knows I am not afraid of anybody or admitting mistakes I make.
I want to thank all the TOC players for giving their input about the wildcard idea.
After reading all the responses we have decided that there won’t be a wildcard this quarter. Any future changes to the league will be implemented at the beginning of the quarter going forward. Some will be put to a player vote “by the players for the players”. We have modified this league from day one using player input and will continue that process in all future endeavors.
Thank you
Michael
No matter the skill level of the playersf; having a place where the players
actually do try to get better, learn, and have fun is encouraging.
Good luck
Justin

Friday the 13th, 29 warriors gathered at Camp Crystal Lake (Actually camp Nobebosco a Boy scout camp in New Jersey that my son went to) The myst closed in as players started to disappear one at a time. Soon we were down to the final few. Norris hacked and slashed his way to the @_snowman 's 6th victory this quarter and extended his overall lead. @DenaliD was Freddie Kruger calling his shot and toying with his victims before coming for their chips in their dreams, @Sue13 was in her element on one of her favorite days dishing out vengance for 3rd, and @southwestmba did a Return of the Living Dead impression “More Brains” to rise from the dead over and over for 4th. Great game tonight the banter and the skill made tonight alot of fun.
Fun fact this was also Norris’ 13th victory, extending his lead as the all time leader in that category and On Tuesday he joined the 100 game club.
It was Friday the 13th for sure. Felt like I was on a roller coaster all night fighting against some of the best players on Replay. My luck ran out, but I’ll take 3rd anytime here. Besides, the company is the best part. Congrats Snowman and DenaliD and southwestmba!!!

Odin’s Army
Thors hammer called the lightening and the thunder and 31 warriors answered the call. Omaha was the game. Lady luck danced and warriors attacked the game with full enthusiasm. In the end there was a magnificent heads up masterpiece between @_Rain and @jujube chips flying and changing owners until finally the host scooped the last pot for the win. @jujube lived up to the terminator moniker and took out many a player, @slader43 moved with lightening speed and warrior precision to land 3rd, @tjmcfarland called the thunder to rattle his opponents and finish 4th and @Bradspam snuck in as the short stack and transformerd to a monster for 5th. Great game all see you for round two.
Odin was pleased with the first game of the night so he summoned his warriors for another round. He filled their cups and dealt the cards. The night was a bit feisty, very aggressive plays, all ins and many battles. In the end Justin, @writerjpeel showed he has some mad skills and can back up his lively chatting. @Zarcon411 battled hard and worked to finish a strong 2nd, @goodFELLO246 wacked a few would be gangsters on the way to 3rd, and @xNEMESISx fought valiantly and was involved of a great bubble three way all in with @Weedwoman420 and @writerjpeel and finished 4th and justin smashed the bubble. A fun filled night and a great performance. Bravo and salute!
Update on the leaderboard with his victory in the early game @_Rain passed @Younguru in a very tight race for 2nd. Should be a hotly contested finish with those two scratching for every point
Young GTO vs old school instincts, old against young, what will happen only Odin knows
