Great tournament, awesome venue. I was a bit worried about the terrein placement and getting done in time, but with 3 hours on the clock, it wasn't a problem at all.
I faced 5 great opponents and can barely recall a (hard) discussion.
Only thing that I didn't like (as I already said), is the W/D/L format in favour of the Battle Points, but that's just personal preferance.

Nice tournament, quite lame so many people gave up.
Scenarii were great, and even if classement method was arguable, found it really efficient too.
About the location, spac and tables, it was great aswell.
My opponents were nice, even those gaylords eldars. So thank you guys.
Food was really nice, but missed fat and fries, aswell as, most important, some (ok, alot) beer.
Since first game against Louis, can't find anymore my watch, if someone finds it, just tell me, thanks.
The biggest issus was parking in my opinion, saturday at least, beiing forced to walk across Bruges for 20 minuts with all the stuff was really annoying.
Anyways, I discovered Bruges (even by night), and had fun at the tournament, so I'll advise anyone to come next year and have fun.

A big thank you to the organizers, the BGO mustve taken a lot of prep work, so kudos! I had a fun weekend :)

Ik heb me zeer goed geamuseerd en het is de eerste keer dat ik van een tournooi naar huis reed en dacht dit wil ik weer doen. Toffe tegenstanders gehad, battles die tot het het einde spannend waren, genoeg tijd om te eten en daarna eentje te roken. Top

A bit more clarity on when painting judging was over and when and where the pairings where would've been nice. Only sugarfree cola... :( The scenarios, organisation, location and terrain were top-notch though!

Great venue for a tournament with lots of room! Only downside was the rulespack which could have been more clear (or at least seperate 40k and fantasy).

just parking we had some trouble to find (fucking brugge) for the rest great game great location.

All in all it was a wonderful tournament, only things that did not get an A where the rules pack (it had some unclear bits) and the scenario's that could have been pointed a bit differently (as I only figured out later) to make it possible to win even if down on the primary. (So only very minor things).
Everything else was just great, long game times, lot's of terrain, plenty of room, cheap (ish) parking nearby, brilliant hall and good food (and even better, GOOD COFFEE!)
It was simple one of the best tournaments ever, I'd advise anyone to go there if possible!
