About
I am but a humble coach laying my poor skills at Nuffle's feet.

Thx to the admins and all the contributors for this great place to play in.




It's a game, so it's about fun.
I don't mind losing and being beaten up as long as we're having a cool chat.
My fav opponents are both skilled and good spirited, so i can enjoy a good challenge and a good laugh.
I much prefer losing to such a coach than winning vs one of those whiners and/or rude players who take this game seriously.


Also, one of the things i enjoy in Blood Bowl is developing teams.
Just a side note on teams that focus on bashing to win:
Destroy the opponent to win doesn't make this game fun imho even if i can understand some find it fun in their vision of the game (see respected coach paulhicks).
So i'll avoid teams loaded with DP, MB, etc.
To sum up : i'll play against any coach, but i won't play against any team.


Players on a hurry, please read:
Playing a game means relaxing, so I can take 3-4 minutes a turn, especially on defense.




About some tactics and so-called tactics:

Fouling:
A fun idea but i don't foul much or use DP.

Stalling:
I don't enjoy petty victories so i don't stall.
I can delay the TD 1 turn to prevent my players from being bashed the last turn, but i won't do it if you have a chance to score.
Also i think defending is a thrill in this game.
That makes the victory a lot sweeter if my little guys can stop yours as well as they fooled your defense.

Cherrypicking:
I try and avoid matches against rookie coaches or coaches with "feeble" stats.
No offense meant but there's no interesting games without a challenge.




Stuff you read on Fumbbl:

Specing a game between Synn & Frostitute. Frostitute's troll is about to ttm:
<Synn> feed
<Synn> feed
<Frostitute> sorry phone
<Synn> no prob
<sp#25> it's the troll asking what he is supposed to do

A team bio:
"This team will only play teams that are lower than it in TS, and preferably by more than 10. If I can find people who will play me 20 TS or below than that will be great. This isn't cherrypicking, but sensible choice of opponents that should protect my orcs from harm."

Forum wisdom:

"Winning isnĀ“t what makes you a good coach!"

"You know, if you come to terms with the fact that bad luck can happen and not ruin your life, this game is so much more fun."

paulhicks knows:
"did you know, that if the worst thing that happens to you is you roll a bunch of 1's and your computer pixels die then you should consider it a damn good day."





NOTES TO SELF:

Always keep in mind:
Pouring rain = Khemri style.
