Bugs: Recent Topics Paging, Uploading Images & Preview (11 Dec 2020)
Recent Topics paging, uploading images and preview bugs require a patch which has not yet been released.
Bloodbowl & FUMBBL
I stumbled on to FUMBBL while trying to figure out if BloodBowl was still in print (and, whattaya know, unlike every other GW title I wanted to spend my money on, it was).
After months of dicking around [and tracking down and actually buying a BB set from a source other than directly from GW so that I could at least touch the components and see what it's all about], I've just started to go through the motions of putting a team together and joining that online league. They appear to welcome newbs, which is so often not the case in anything online.
Out of curiosity, how many F:ATers [F:ATties?] have a team in FUMBBL? Do we have any folks here who might be willing talk [perhaps via Skype or something like Teamspeak or Ventrilo] some newbs through some starter online games [while padding their own league stats; shameless pandering on my part] and maybe put together a small tourney [report results to FUMBBL as if they were regular games but track results here on a bracket. Winner to get a Barnes-autographed unplayably scratched DVD of 24 Hour Party People or something equally useless but trashy? I've got a host of items I'd be happy to contribute].

Hey, it was better than CONTROL.
I might look into this...I haven't played BB in years, but I wouldn't mind fielding a vampire team for the hell of it.

[Was CONTROL that bad? I actually liked 24HrPP at a number of levels, but, nothing about Factory could ever achieve High Art[tm] status. As I think of it, other potential trash culture items available for prize-winners could include a "The Art of Robt. Williams" coffee table book, an issue or two of Bizarre ["the world's only Tits & Corpses magazine!"] or perhaps a Kozik poster or two I have dupes of [maybe a Morphine "Praise Cthulu!" poster].
edit: ugly grammar...

But I have no skype, so I won't be of any help, sorry.

It's not terrible...just disappointing that it's so conventional.

I've played BB on fumbbl quite a bit. It was like two years ago, so I don't really remember how it all works. I mainly just played my two buddies in the 'unranked' division. But there is a 'league' division which is what it says is if you want to set up your own private league or something. But I'm still not all that sure how that works.
Anyone else know how to set that up? If not, we could just keep a thread on here going of records, but it's so convenient to let fumbbl do that. The site is really great about keeping stats for you! I've never been in a league, it's never been more than me and two buddies playing. So I'm not really sure how league play is supposed to work. Do you play whomever you want? Are matches assigned each week? Do you play everybody once each week?

So we'd better come up with the rules for our league. I propose we only allow rookie teams (teams that have not yet played any games), they must be in the 'League' division. No stunty or experimental teams. So just the normal ones (Skaven, humans, choas dwarves, etc). Do you want to place any restrictions on a limit of kinds of teams? Like only 2 of each race or something? Or not.
Once your team has been created notify of the team name and I'll invite it to the group.
