On the anniversary of my 1st year of FUMBBL, I'm writing my first blog entry.

In my first year, I've played 1013 games, mostly in Ranked, but with an ever-increasing percentage of Black Box games. I've played every race enough to the Player award (and some much more) and see which I liked best.

Like:
1. Ogres
2. Dwarfs
3. Wood Elves

Dislike:
1. Chaos Dwarfs
2. High Elves
3. Rotters (and I really tried to like them)

I played in a few majors and even won a game. I entered vampires in the FC just for the fun of it, since none of my teams were a threat to win it.

I won the first SMACK I ever played, and lost countless ones since.

I learned how to play blood bowl, after year's of tabletop play with the same small group had given me an overinflated sense of my own skill at it. My CR dropped to 143 at the lowest, and peaked just over 170 at the highest. I learned that as a general guideline CR is ok, but a lot of it is how well you pick games. All my week of high CR did was make it nearly impossible to get a game in Ranked.

Goals for my 2nd year of FUMBBL:
Realistic...
-Play at least 50% of my games in the Box (hopefully with fewer "not enough coaches" issues)
-Win another SMACK or two
-Get a team over 100 games and over 70 wins
-Get my first legend player (even if it hurts the team they're on), just to have done it at least once

A Stretch...
-Get my CR over 170 and keep it there, without becoming some sort of serial pickster.
-Get through a major qualifier and into the main event.
