FUMBBL: Can we use the World Cup rules for practice games?

Post by TheDoc »

Hi everyone,

I am in desperate need of practice for the World Cup. Is there a way to build a team in Fumbbl that matches the WC rule sets and then use them in games?

Thanks

TheDoc

At the very least you can do so in test mode.

Yes you can. It's pretty straight forward to copy / paste the ruleset into the League division when you set up a group that you use to run the WC rules. It's relatively intuitive, but if you have issues, do a search of news articles and the forum, and you should get a few explanatory hits. If not, I'm sure if you ask in Discord or post a forum thread.

I've just set up a ruleset that will facilitate practising for any tournament on Fumbbl, details here: http://www.sann0638.co.uk/naf-pickup-games-on-fumbbl/
