What do you do?
As I sit and play blood bowl I wonder. What do you do?

What do you do when you are a bash team and can't break armor 6 with claw?

What do you when you cannot break armor with a 7+.....twice.

What do you do when you have 5 TZs around the ball and your opponent dodges in picks up the ball and dodges out?

What do you do when your AG4 player fails to pick up the ball 4 times in a row?

What do you do when a Skaven team has more casualties against you as your orc team?

What do you do when a mummy picks up the ball and completes a long bomb....to another mummy?

What do you do???

It may seem like I am making this up, but in fact that's how it is. I have the feeling that I punched a programmers mother in the face and then poured sugar in their gastank.....

my answers:

You run the ball into the endzone and beat em at scoring.

You stripball him and run the ball into the endzone and beat em at scoring.

Guard it, so your opponent won't pick it up and beat you at scoring.

Nufflings happen to us all. I generally do two things. #1 never give up. Luck sometimes reverses itself and those who lose heart...are sure to fail. #2 play another game. The next may be fortunate and you'll forget this one.

On fumbbl there will be more stuff like this then in irl Blood bowl.

Not becouse of the dices or not becouse of cheating.

Its becouse you play a lot more games here.

You can play 2 games instead of 1 game in real life.
And its easier to get games.

So this means you play a lot of games. You try a lot of moves that never happens irl.
And you play against better players.

I have seen a lot of funny stuff here in nuffle.
Just grat the oponent and smile.

Next time it will be you that do the amazing stuff.

Basically you suck it up, change your strategy, do your best and move on.

I smoke a ;lot of dope. I reckon fumbbl accounts for 80% of my drug use.

At all of the above, i excuse myself for a moment to go and get another beer.

Hmm, so my answers are....

1. I try again.

2. I try it until i have either finally broken the armor or i find something better to do with my 16 turns. Nr.2 overrules Nr.1

3. Well if the opponents seems that capable i learn from my mistake and dont leave the ball on the ground next time.

4. I try either get more Rerolls or Sure Hands... Otherwise the attempt is pointless... If the Pickup still isnt working(the chances are astronomically small), i prepare maximum defense and get mentally deal with the fact that my opponent is very likley going to score.... just good that he can't win by just making one TD.

5. I would probably accept the fact that I really suck at this game and try to get better.

6. Man that would be hillarious. Its technically just a 1/36 but if the pass doesnt need to work i could imagine this pretty well.. Id laugh like hell, cry my tears out and probably tell my grandchildren about it... once they have started playing the game... Then Id be going to stop the other mummy... as slow as they are they need ages to get somewhere anyhow... and maybe hope my opponent makes another one of these passes... if that doesnt help im thinking about how I do my next TD

7. Thats nothing special about any of this stuff. See above.

Maybe you should improve your own game instead of whining about the random number generator...

Personally I laugh, joke about it all, and move on. I got slaughtered in my last game with my Lizardmen, I suffered 2 RIPs, 2 SIs and a few BHs and KOs, I was down to about 4 players in the end but I powered on with the match and congratulated my opponent after.
Posted by Shimin on 2009-02-23 16:46:04
Well, i generally laugh at it, and bitch a bit about it, knowing that my opponent is well aware of his luck.

Furthermore i congratulate myself on being good enough to force my opponent into bad odds like throwing the ball mummy to mummy.
That happens quite a lot. Unfortunatly i also meet opponents forcing me into risky moves, but if they succeed they are just that much more fun to watch - No matter what side makes the insane moves.

Remember why you play this game, and if you cant: quit!

Dragons is totally true so read his comment, keep your humour and wait for the game that will be yours.

As it is illegal in most countries to agree with purplechest, I will not say it.^^

My advice to your questions is gangfoul when you plan to hurt someone, pick the ball instead of zoning it, remember throwing dice is NEVER safe, but everything can possibly succeed.

What I usually when such things happen..? I bite my keyboard and hang myself with my mouse.

"What do you do when a mummy picks up the ball and completes a long bomb....to another mummy?"

I did that once for the t16 winning td IRL. my opponent was quite pissed I'll have to say :P
