Well the rankings have been updated since Warpcon last month, read more below to find out exactly how.
Some movement among the top 20, notably Oisín McCormack dropping ten places to 18th by missing the biggest 40k tournament in the country. Oisín moved to Spain a while back and will be unable to make 40k events much in the forseeable future, a real shame considering what a talent he was.
Also dropping a few spots is ETC Captain, Mr. Richard Flood who is guaranteed a spot on the ETC Irish Team. Although guaranteed a spot on the team this hasn't stopped 'Floody' from competitively attending every tournament he can (including next weekend's Dominion Day in Northern Ireland), this time however he dropped some places due to his participation as a judge for Warpcon wargames.
Up a whopping 21 places to 17th is Northern Ireland's 40K ETC Captain, Jonny Fisher with his newfound love for Imperial Guard, while always good to see a fellow Ulsterman do well it's a shame he's given up on that beautiful Chaos list of his. It's also impressive to see the massive effort made by the Northern Wasters to come to Cork to support their Munster brethren, it's a seriously long trip they had to make by Karl Windle, Darrell Dobbin, Jonny and the rest of the crew.
Up 14 places is Pearce Condren, a young man I met back in the days when I played Deathwing (ironic) and who has come on as a very talented player recently, apparently gypsied by John Stowe at the last hurdle. Is that right John? ;)
Amongst the top ten there was a little shuffling but nothing major apart from Mike Tangney's jump up 5 places to 6th, the only new entrant into the top ten with the update of this tournament.
It's looking to be an interesting table with lots of potential as we go into the 2nd half of the Irish gaming season.
Next up, Dominion Day, and tea and coffee :)
