FUMBBL, the online Blood Bowl league

Aaaand we're back!

It certainly isn't easy these days to find a bit of room in the busy tournament schedule, but here we go with another batch of XFL tournaments. We have just performed the random draw and come up with Goblin, Elf and Orc as the races for the next round.

Quite a nice draw if I say so myself. One of the classics, a stunty race and an elf race. Something for eveybody I'd say!

You are hereby invited to APPLY your [R]anked team(s) from these races on the group page.

This season marks a special occasion for the Southern Wastes League. 9 years ago, Twahn tested the waters and began an all-Australian league. Now, in 2013, SWL celebrates it's 50th season!

Since its inception, the SWL has expanded to include coaches from the entire Asia Pacific region, providing the premier league experience on FUMBBL. The SWL has inspired the creation of other leagues in Europe and North America, trying to emulate the success that the SWL has experienced.

However, what makes the SWL so special is the fact that for the majority of the Australian/New Zealand/Asian community, the league is THE most important experience on FUMBBL. This is due to the awesome, tight-nit community within the SWL which welcomes players and provides a positive experience all of the time. Additionally, the time zone difficulties make it hard to participate in majors, making SWL the most competitive blood bowl experience that we have easy access to. This awesome and unique prevalence of a competitive but friendly community has been the key to reaching 50 seasons.

I'd like to thank all of the SWL staff who have helped maintain the league over 50 seasons. I'd like to thank all of the past and present SWL coaches who have helped form this awesome community's culture. Finally, I'd like to thank FUMBBL and Christer for providing such an awesome framework to host this awesome league.

Here's to another 50!

The Halflings came from the mountains, with their coveted Fighting Cockerel Classic trophy hoisted overhead, challenging any and all teams in the kingdom to take their prize away from them. Thus began the Fighting Cockerel Classic tournament!

Very soon now we will be able to re-launch the FUMBBL Tour, with points awarded for every Minor competition coaches enter a yearly champion crowned.

So, for it to be worthwhile we need Minors to happen, and its high time we had one for each competitive division. So we are.....

On Wednesday May 8 at around 14:00, I will be taking the site offline for a while in order to update the database server that is backing the site. I am hoping that this update will be less than 2 hours long and that it won't affect your schedule too greatly.

Edit:
The maintenance has been successfully completed and we're back to normal.
