    Good morning Orfy folk, this is April week 1, the first week of the final four Orfordable League tournies to ever be played. As previously stated, I do not know whether it will be played as a standalone tourney during May, prior to Sky moving to I-Poker on, I believe, the 27th of May. That being said, let us all enjoy these last four weeks of the League, and all do our best for what has been a great little tourney.
    Our prizewinners for March @Boxster & @danbrad029 will be entered into tonight;s 9.30pm £11 BH, I am sure that you will all join me in wishing them both the very best of luck.
    Good luck to everyone who plays tonight. Here is the autoreg list

    Sad times but nothing lasts for ever.

    Thanks @SidV79 (Andy) for running the league and I will surely miss it.

    On checking my stats it appears that I have been playing the Orfy since 2012, ran the league for a few years and played 508 times, winning the Orfy MTT 11 times, thought it was more lol. @goldnballz has won it 26 times!

    Good luck all this month and enjoy as usual

    Good morning Orfy folk, one down, three more to go. Of the 26 players taking their chance last night, 15 are Orfy regged, and 6 of those made the FT.
    After finishing in 3rd place two weeks ago @THECHIMP takes home the Virtual FT Wooden Spoon last night after his 10th place finish, he sits in 6th overall, well played Mr. Chimp.
    Three weeks have passed since @MAXALLY was last on the FT, but made up for that with a 9th place last night, leaving him in 5th overall, well played Alan.
    It has also been three weeks since @weecheez1 made the FT, but he put that right with his 5th place last night to leave him in 4th overall, well played cheez.
    Making his third consecutive FT @gibbzy finished in 4th place last night, and sits in 3rd place overall, well played gibbzy.
    Making his third FT in four weeks, @THEHERDEIE finished in 2nd place last night, eight places higher than his previous two, leaving him in 2nd overall, well played Mr Herdeie.
    It has been almost two years since @FORDAKIDZ made the FT (May 2023 Week 3, 5th place), so this is a welcome return for him as he took the win last night to place him at the top of the League, congratulations and very well played John.
    Thank you to everyone who played last night, I hope to see you all again next week.
    Here is the League table after April Week 1

    Good morning Orfy folk. Week 2 is done and dusted, so just the two weeks left for us Orfordablers. There were 30 lining up to take the spoils, 17 being orfy regged, and of those, 9 made the FT, filling the top nine places.
    First up we have @bornablade, who was making his first FT since January Week 4, taking 2nd place last night, well played blade.
    Making his third FT in his last four appearances (over five weeks) @wynne1938 finished in third place to leave him in 10th overall, well played Wynne.
    After three consecutive FT's back in December @goldnballz has had a lean time of it this year, but has put that right with his 5th place last night, leaving him in 9th overall, well played Keith.
    Making my first FT since February week 2, I finished in 7th last night, leaving me in 8th overall.
    After two FTs last month, @diamondlee makes his first of this month by finishing in 6th place last night, which has him sitting in 7th overall, well played Lee.
    Four FTs in the last five weeks, it was almost five consecutive FTs but for last weeks FT bubble, for @Toffeeandy who took 9th place last night and leaves him in 6th overall, well played Andy.
    Three FTs in the last four, two in two, weeks is not to be sniffed at, as @THECHIMP finished in 8th last night and leaves him in 4th overall, well played Mr Chimp.
    Three FTs in five weeks isn't to be sniffed at either as @stokefc took 4th place last night, moving him into 3rd place overall, well done Sean.
    @THEHERDEIE missed out on the FT finishing in 12th last night, but leaves him still in 2nd overall.
    After not making a single FT in almost two years @FORDAKIDZ has doubled down by taking the win for the second consecutive week, meaning he takes one of the two prizes on offer this month, Congratulations and very well played John.
    Thank you to everyone who played last night, I hope to see you all again next week.
    Here is the updated League table after April week 2

    Good morning Orfy folk, I hope everyone is well. Two down, two to go! This is Week 3 (of 4) of the last ever Orfordable League. As one of the prizes is already locked up by @FORDAKIDZ, we are all playing for one seat, so I wish everyone that plays tonight, the very best of luck. Here is the Autoreg list

    Good morning Orfy folk, the penultimate results are in. There were 27 players last night, 15 of whom are Orfy regged, and of those, 7 made the FT.
    A first FT of the month went to @daggers747 where he finished in 8th place last night, leaving him in 13th overall, well played daggers.
    A third consecutive FT went to @THECHIMP where he took 9th place last night, and leaves him in 9th overall, well p;ayed Mr Chimp.
    A second consecutive FT for @Toffeeandy taking 7th place last night, which leaves him in 8th overall, well played Andy.
    A second consecutive FT went to @weecheez1 as he finished in 6th last night, leaving him in 5th overall, well played cheez.
    Also making a second consecutive FT @diamondlee was our highest placed finisher in 2nd last night, moving him up into 4th overall, well played Lee.
    @THEHERDEIE is a very regular contributor to these reports, making as many FTs as he does, last night was no exception with it being his second this month, as he finished in 5th place, but fell a place into 3rd overall, well played Mr Herdeie.
    A second consecutive FT went to @bornablade where, after last week's second place, he took 3rd place last night, which has catapulted him into 2nd overall, on a score of 5, welol played blade.
    @FORDAKIDZ retains his overall lead, despite not playing last night, and as no Orfy reg won last night, he is crowned as the last ever Orfordable League Winner.
    Thank you to everyone who played last night, I hope to see you all, plus a few more players, for next week's final ever tourney.

    Good morning Orfy folk, I hope everyone is well. This is April Week 4 (of 4), the final week of the Orfordable League ever. Just one question remains to be answered, and that is, who will finish as runner-up to @FORDAKIDZ after tonight's tourney? Currently, @bornablade is in the box seat with a score of 5, so that is the score to beat to grab second place. With that, I shall wish each and every one of you who plays tonight, the very best of luck. For the final time, here is the autoreg list

    @SidV79 - just wanted to say a massive thank you for you running this league over the past few years and posting the weekly updates. I haven't played the Orfy for a while but it's always been a good laugh to play and will miss the banter we all have at the table.

    Is there any way I can buy you into a £33 main event or something as a thank you? I'm pretty sure you've always given up the monthly prizes on the (rare :lol: ) occasions that you've finished in the top 2, so would be nice to return the favour in some way.

    Will hopefully play the final ever one tonight, so will look forward to finishing last one more time. :lol:

    Would like to say a thank you to Sid as well. I'm only a casual player and don't normally play tourneys but have enjoyed these Friday nights a lot. Will it still run without the prizes or is that it mate.

    Good afternoon Orfy folk. Welcome to the final ever results report of the Orfordable League. There were 25 players taking part last night, with 15 being Orfy regged, and of those, 6 made the FT.
    A second FT in succession for @daggers747 where he finished in 10th last night, and he takes home the Virtual FT Wooden Spoon, leaving him in 12th overall, well played daggers.
    Making his third consecutive FT @Toffeeandy finished in 8th place, to leave hin in 11th overall, well played Andy.
    After being MIA last week, @goldnballz made his second successive FT of the month, finishing in 9th place, which has left him in 8th overall, well played Keith.
    Making his 4th consecutive FT (his 5th in the last 6 weeks), @THECHIMP is on a very good run of form indeed, taking 4th place last night, this has left him in 7th overall, well played Mr Chimp.
    Our highest placed finisher last night was @MAXALLY who took 3rd place, his second FT of the month, to leave him in 6th overall, well played Alan.
    Making his third FT of the month @weecheez1 finished in 6th place last night, repeating his 6th place of last week, leaving him in 5th overall, well played cheez.
    None of the top four were anywhere near the FT last night (the best placed was 17th), meaning that the top 4 remain the same
    4th- @diamondlee on a score of 8
    3rd- @THEHERDEIE on a score of 7- how many times can one player finish in 3rd overall?
    2nd- @bornablade on a score of 5 & the final ever Winner of the Orfordable League
    1st- @FORDAKIDZ on a perfect score of 2.
    Congratulations to both @FORDAKIDZ & @bornablade on being the last ever prizewinners of this wonderful little tourney. Both shall be entered into next Friday (May 2nd 2025) night's 9.30pm £11 BH.
    Thank you to everyone who played last night. Also, thank you who has taken the time to comment on my running the tourney, it has been a pleasure to run, thank you.
    For the final time, here is the updated League Table after April Week 4
