ARBBL winningest trophy

The rules of the winningest trophy.

1) The current holder of the trophy must bring it to game night (or leave it in the storage if they are a killjoy).

2) Any game with a clear winner involving the current trophy holder may be called upon by any participant to be a trophy stakes game before the game starts. The trophy holder may not decline the challenge.
The winner of the trophy stakes game shall be the new owner of the trophy.

3) Failure of the trophy holder to attend and play at three club nights in a row will result in automatic forfeiture of the trophy. The next eligible game to involve four or more players will automatically become a trophy stakes game.

4) Trophy stakes games may be only be declared at an official ARBBL gaming event. Only one trophy stakes game may be declared per game night.

5) A successful defence of the trophy by the current owner is strongly encouraged to be marked by modding, graffitiing or otherwise defacing the trophy by the owner.

Impact Miniatures Chibi Pumpkinhead:

I've used the ~30mm version for trophies for the ARBBL Open.
Impact have recently run a KS to make "giant" versions, one of which was this figure at 60mm. I've got one coming that I intend to use as a permanent ARBBL Open trophy, but could add another for this ($15, but not due till Jan).

Only concern is we've tried to run a non-game specific club "ladder league" in the past, where you get points for beating people above you, and most people didn't bother to post results.

I really like the idea, especially the ad-hoc nature! Wouldn't be too much upkeep, just need to post who is the current holder on each club night post and possibly keep a tally of how many times it is won?

Instead of paying for a trophy does anyone have a large model which could be suitably modded or graffitied.


I have a GW resin display base for Lord of the rings which could be used.

The winner could add a model to the display and if they win again put a bigger model on or mod it up.

The trophy enters hibernation for a while...

And returns! Dave is the new owner claiming his crown at Splendor.

Argghh! Forgot Dave was now the holder - I'd have challenged him for it.

And won it.



And then lost it again, but still... ;)

Has anyone seen the trophy???

I thought I had a memory of bringing it home after Dave didn't take it home when he won Dominion, but I can't find it anywhere!
