BowlBot is, as the name suggests, a bot. BowlBot is not a real person. It is a program that is connected to the chat to announce game results and help with various tasks. BowlBot's function is to give you information on the chat channel.

It is most often used to find games

Type: bb <command>

or: /msg bowlbot <command>

to execute that command. The difference between these two are that the latter will generate less "useless" information on the channel.

Example:

bb lfg -r

Displays your coach name, ranked division teams, ratings, strength, and casualty inflicted average per game.

Commands:

• lfg [-rxsflu] [regexp] = looking for game <initials of divisions> <RegExp pattern matching of team name to display>. Note that the initials of the division are only required in a private message to the bot, if at all, since a command given in a certain division's chat channel will only check the teams from that division.

• help [command] = same as what you see here but with more detail
• d6 = roll a 6 sided die
• ip = look-up your IP
• last [coach name] = How long ago did the coach load a page on the site?
• teams [coach] = Shows a list of teams belonging to the specified coach (or yourself). This will only show the list to you.
• time = Server time (CET or CEST depending on daylight savings)
