Settle Children. Don't make uncle Red bring out the CRAW.
Fortunately for Lizzie, She's pretty much got a bye this round against my Dwarves. Shouldn't be any problems at all.
And Tyra, hush. |

You know me mate, if it hasn't happened to me it can't happen! 
And I'll keep plugging away. It'll turn around... maybe... won't it??  |

You're looking at it the wrong way. You don't need to turn it around. You just need to turn it around for everyone else... |

It did get a little out of hand. I didn't realise I was going to be continuously quoted - it was just something said in a bit of a rage. My bad. I won't concede again I rarely do it in ranked, in fact I don't think I ever have on this site. I was just trying to protect my team because it's not going too well for them. |

Here's an example of a brutal game Lizzie: https://fumbbl.com/p/match?op=view&id=3146063
You're not doing yourself any favors conceding. My advise is to just suck it up and play through it. Dead players is an inherent part of Blood Bowl.
EDIT: just read your post above. sounds good  |

On the bright side, it saved me having to make a keep/sack Mino decision |

Generally in SWL we haven't had many concessions, because it isn't in the spirit that SWL is played. Concessions hurt the enjoyment for people and create an imbalance in the league - they are just no good. When someone does concede they cop a heap of flack because it is looked at as weak. This goes back to the old Aussie spirit of relishing the underdog status and digging in against the odds.
However, new players to the SWL are unlikely to pick up on this straight away, so we must be mindful of making sure that they understand that its not a good look while being given the benefit of the doubt and not scrutinised too much. After all it is reggies.
Have to say the outcome to this situation is great - well handled by all in the end.
I don't want to see flame wars and fights in the SWL league threads. Overall this league is built on a great community that has a plethora of friendly rivalries, friendships and banter. It truly is a great place to play blood bowl.
Viva SWL. |

Hmmmmm...
Question;
Would you keep on punishing clearly defeated opponent by trying to cause more casualties?

I think most people would continue to get as many pows in as possible, if not every coach in a league especially.
Though, it's probably less about punishment and more about rewarding your own players with SPP. |

I would block to try and get casualty SPP but I would never foul or surf if the game was won.

Its all a matter of the situation, who your opponent is, what team they are playing, where they are on the table, etc.
If I'm playing a team that is ahead of me on the table and I have the game locked up I'll try and take more players out so it becomes easier to catch them.
If I'm playing a coach I have a rivalry against I will put the boot in for sure.
If there's a star player on the team that needs killing (a str4 wardancer or one turner) i'll try and take it out as a service to the league.
If I'm playing against a chaos team built to kill everything, I'll give them a taste of their own medicine.
I always expect people to foul me into oblivion even in junk time. Usually this is what happens |

Live by the sword, die by the sword. If I am running any CPOMB and it gets out of hand I would certainly expect it. |

QUOTED FOR TRUTH
You have to remember, this is a league. It may be in YOUR teams best interests to leave your opponent in the best shape possible, for when they take on your biggest competition next game more so than getting spp's from additional cas. Or you might be playing against your biggest threat right now, in which case, do whatever it takes, but always with a smile on your face. You need to look ahead a little and make some tactical decisions. It's about who finishes on top at the end. ORRRRRR |
