40k Tournament odds are as follows;
Brandon 3-2 [3-2] outlook neutral

Asita 8-1 [8-1] outlook neutral
Gray 9-1 [20-1] outlook positive
Greensmith 12-1 from 15-1

Note we dont actually take bets, this is just for comparitive value, though what goes on behind closed doors is at your own discretion. Match fixing however will result in the fervent use of a poker.

May I bring it to everyones attention that nobody in the history of OGC has ever won more than one event in a single Tournament. The closest person to do this is myself, ie;
2003, 2nd in 40k & Fantasy
2004, 1st in 40k, 2nd in Fantasy and Magic

This year, with Simon having already won the Magic Tournament, and being favourite to win the Fantasy we could have a new form of Champion crowned (even if he does lose the Magic Grand Champion match). Id pencil in a 15-1 chance that Simon could actually pull off a triple

you and your pencil...

Quick! Break the pencil! Before it jinxes us all!



And murder Simon, of course.





Eureka! Murder Simon WITH the pencil! It's all so clear to me now!

So, Simon has created a new chapter in OGC history being the first to grab the titles from one Tournament. And a thoroughly respectful Tournament to do it in as well, this is shaping up as one of the ebst Tournaments we've ever had. Fantasy was pretty good, (though I was screwed ) and 40k has been amazing so far, whoever wins this year, its the going to be the most prestigious 40k win so far, or at least as good as winning 2000.

Kudos to Brown as well, having never won a Tournament game in his life in 40k, he's won 4 in a row and has a shot at being a champion.
