Hi guys,

Due to Academic commitments I had to skip my new local league.
Hence I decided to make a new team and start sing the FUMBLL site but how do I use this on a Mac?

Cheers.

Hi bates,

Should work fine, as long as you've got Java installed on it. I played FUMBBL on a Mac for years (before I switched to Linux). I recommend speccing a game to try it out first, before playing one.

Hi there, welcome to FUMBBL!

There's a club for players new to FUMBBL here called the 145. Info available in the blog below.

https://fumbbl.com/p/blog&c=Rbthma&id=21068
There's an active discord channel for both FUMBBL and the 145 if you use it. Nice place to engage with the community and (for the 145) organise matches against new coaches.

Discord link here :

Have fun!

If your security protocols won't let you open the client, go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy, and click "Open Anyway" to open the file.

Click the play/resume team links and choose to open .jnlp files with Java Web Start.app. Java might ask if you trust the source (you do).

If you can't make that work, try updating/installing Java.

If it still doesn't work, you might have to update OSX to allow a more recent version of Java.

I just got a Mac myself. I think my main question is: How do I do a "right-click" on a Mac with only one button?

Or however you set-up right click (ctrl click, point on track pad, two fingers, etc). Should be set-up in system prefs to suit your track-pad or mouse. Mine is bottom right track-pad.
