Good point... Perhaps there should be a "dont care" button which doesn't make any team more likely to get a game? |

Once out in full swing maybe you can promise to force retire all BlackBox teams to force a fresh start. It may help people with playing matches for you to get full data. |

I hope not, as I have grown quite attached to my Mice in Black.
If there is a reset, then all data and stats would have to be cleared too. |

I also grow attached to my pixels, so I would be sad to see my fluffed up heroes vanish. I don't really see a need for a "fresh start" either. |

Have to just add I LOVE the [B]lack box division. I KNOW I can get a game (barring an uneven or light draft). No more waiting for some schmuck to try and cherrypick my butt in [R]anked. I may eve start another team, but so far having too much fun rebuilding my DELFS after their initial dismantling
[1st game 2 SI {both nigs} and one Death!]
Keep it up and I don't care if we have to start over once it goes "live" |

Rather than giving everyone a fresh start, how about this?
A 1 time amnesty for bringing any number (or a fixed number) of your Ranked teams into the Blackbox.
Anyone else miss their Ranked team, now that they have converted to Blackbox? |

Gawd. No Amnesty. No Conversion. Build your team in [B] if you want it there. |

Excellent. Getting better every day
I would also like a 'activate all' option at times, but would not be unhappy if I always had to prefer one team. |

No! Too meany high ranking teams there that have been built up by dodging or cherry picking... In B you atleast have to really build the team. |

Ok. You and Kryten have a valid point about the Giant Cherry Picker teams.
But it would be nice with some chance to move a team out of the [R]-for-retired division into the Box.
How about a TR limit of say 150, for a one time amnesty? Or a game played limit?
It's too bad that some of the work we've put into Ranked should go to waste. |

I'm wondering how this match adds up with the scheduler:
http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&id=2439283
Chaos vs Khemri
Chaos up 29 in TS with a better win record, more TD's and more cas. Ranked rating for the Chaos coach is 12 points higher.
Sounds like an inherently "unfair" matchup to me. |

I think that every khemri team deserves that, the question is, who will do that to the chaos team |

xcer, CR has nowt to do with BR - BR is earned in the the box, not the result of cherrypicking.
and its 24 TS, modified to 14 by the handicaps. |

This is a truly babyish concession. After 3 turns 3 mummies had been cas'd but 2 had regenned and the other was just MNG. Chaos had a CW and a beasty in the BH box in the meantime. No permanent injuries and still plenty to play for - khemri still had the ball and it was turn _THREE_.
I hate to see weak concessions in blackbox. What happened to needing admin approval for concessions? (was away from FUMBBL for 6 months) |
