Neoscream's Life: 11th to 17th of February

MSN-00100 Hyaku Shiki
Welcome to another week of my life. For those new to the blog, the "Neoscream's Life" posts are basically a weekly dairy of mine. It also includes the AJ Lee news; the latest Cosplay Deviants sets and news; my "Watch, Listen and Read" lists; and a painting/converting section with 7TV teams, DreadBall Figures and Super Dungeon Explore.

Milton Keynes was hit with snow on Monday. Apart from miner delays it did no course any problems. It tried to snow again on Wednesday but it never really settled and in the late evening it rain a little which melted most of the remaining snow from Monday and the rain on Thursday removed the rest.

Richard and Darren H tried organising a little get together for couple of drinks and a chat on Wednesday. Sadly only me, Richard and Darren turned up, but it was still a great night out. Just wish they said that they were planning on eating out to before hand.


Cyber-Tech Primers and Coach AJ
On Saturday I went down to Wargames Workshop MK for a DreadBall Tournament. I had booked Saturday off work for it. I also got next week off as well (well this week) but that is just time off work to de-stress. I was almost late as the first of the two bus I need to get there was twenty minutes late. Luckily just I manage to catch the second one and I mean just. In the tournament I was using my Cyber-Tech Primers. (Please note I might have names and scores wrong and this was not a league.) The rules for the tournament can be found on Guardians of Tyr. In the first game I was up against another Robert who was borrowing a a Corporation team. I was win for most of the match but he managed to team it around at the last moment. He won by one points. After the first match we got 20mc to spend on extra players, coaching dice and cards. If I had a spar Guard I would have gone for one and a coaching dice, but as I do not, I went for three coaching dice. In the second game I was up against a player called Steven. He was using a Forge Fathers team. It ended at a tie, but as the tournament can not end with a tie, we had to go to tiebreakers rules. The first tiebreaker was the number of 4 point strikes, but we draw on that. So we moved onto the second tiebreaker, the most recovery time inflicted, which my opponent won. So I went down as as a lose. After the second game two chosen player each gain one random skill. I picked both of my guards and they both gained a +1 their strength. We had a launch break and then we started the third game. I was up against a Veer-myn player called Bob. I managed to win the game by two points. After the game we gained a MVP of our own chose. I went for Number 88. Yes I know he is broken, but I knew other people would be going for him. Fight fire with fire. On the fourth game four I was up against a Corporation player called Richard (not the Richard I know). He went for the MVP Buzzcut. OK, there is currently no figure for him, but Richard was using a very old Bloodball figure as him for now. I ended up winning the game with two points, but it was a very bloody match, each of us took three players out of play. Over all I ended up getting 6th place out of eight players and the Enforcer title. Due to the Enforcer title I am currently at 5th place in the Guardians of Tyr DreadBall 2013 Championship. The next tournament is in April and both Number 88 and Buzzcut are both banned due to being over powerful.


Now for some AJ Lee news. First of Raw on Monday the 11th of February. AJ was supporting Dolph Ziggler with Big E Langston like normal. However when AJ was standing on the edge of the ring during Dolph's match against Kane, Dolph was knocked into the ropes where AJ was and AJ was knocked off. Luckily Big E catch her, saving the Geek Goddess from injury. Dolph was distracted for making sure AJ was OK and Kane took advantage and won the match.

Next was Main Event on Wednesday the 13th of February. AJ was supporting Dolph Ziggler with Big E like normal. They crash Jericho's Highlight Reel show with replacement guess star Alberto Del Rio (The Miz was meant to be the guest but was he was injured on Raw this week). After that Dolph faced Del Rio in a match and lost.


Faye Valentine from
Cowboy Bebop
All Elimination Chamber news will be in next week's post (still in the middle of watching it).

Last week I forgot to say where the Lee in her wrestling name came from. Her full real name is April Jeanette Mendez. I always though it was from Stan Lee as she is a comic book fan. However in the anime interview she reviled it was from the name of the English voice actress of Faye Valentine from Cowboy Bebop, Wendee Lee.

All the printed DreadBall figures so far plus about half of the next group.

There will be another DreadBall group at a later date with four conversations (reason why this will happen at a later date than next week). However this will be on a later date. Next week will be at least a double bill as I am off work for nine days (16th to the 25th of February). There will be the 150 rating upgraded Dalek team and  the first of the Super Dungeon Explore groups (and maybe a new special 7TV team and a second Super Dungeon Explore group).



Until next time, Armour Up.
