Just signed up for FUMBBL...
Don't really know what I'm doing yet so if any of you wanna take advantage so you can brag later, now is your chance!
Simetime on the weekend would be good.

Just a small tip: There is a group on Fumbbl where the more experienced guys volunteer to play coaches who are new to the site/client.
You can find them in IRC under #fumbbl_academy. Playing one game against one of these guys and asking all questions about the client you might have in 1 go will save you the annoyance of matches that are ruined because of a client "feature" you did not know about.
Alternatively, just look me up in IRC, under Cloggy (go figure). I am one of the leading addicts on Fumbbl and would not mind giving you a few pointers myself.
Important:
Depending on the playstyle you prefer, always check out the "info" link in the coach page. It shows average stats for casualties and stuff like that. Also it helps to recognize the wankles, of whom there are sadly quite a few about.
Start with playing in Unranked. This division is home to most of the league/tournament style games played on Fumbbl, so it's more like tabletop than playing in Ranked.
After that: play Ladder! It's a division some of us are trying to revive, so all help is welcome!

My Bulls have the "Thin Skull" trait. After every block they make, roll a D6. On a 1+ they get ko-ed and stay in the ko-box for the rest of the game.

Good to hearDark Lord wrote:I'm on the ladder.
IN order to make sure other ladder coaches can find you, I would suggest you join this group:http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group ... group=2363
There are a lot of teams in the division that don't actually play. By challenging exclusively teams within this group you actually get to play.....
edit: Oh, by the way, what is your Fumbbl nick?
