That would defeat the whole purpose of this idea, and generally give you even more peeved opponents.

You could always change your foul preference, before the game, if you really change your mind alot on this...
| Quote: | | Doesnt it say in the rules that no discussion of they way you are going to play is allowed before a match? Im sure this counts as that. |
Can you point me to the exact section of the rules that covers this? I went looking a bit, but I couldn't find the section in question.
| Quote: | | It will take game-dodging to a whole new dimension. I´m now getting games refused "because you have a MB (on the ogre) and 2 tackles". |
Hmm, I though I was the only one to have a game turned down because I had players with tackle.  Anyway, if the choice is people being pickier about the games they choose, and people playing games that are no fun for them, I'd say the former is the better way to go.
People who don't want to face killer teams already avoid them when they see their rosters or CAS stats, or teams they think are overpowered, etc.

And again the number of complaints and countercomplaints we see seems to me to be a problem. I'm not concerned about fouling itself, I'm concerned about the fact that this issue seems to cause less enjoyment of the game for many people on FUMBBL. |

About arranged games ( or agreements about games ) http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=help&op=rules First line under starting matches "Do not discuss or agree on in-game strategy before the game is started. This includes agreeing on not fouling or any other type of in-game events."
i think that this "idea" clearly is against this rule |

I dont see it this way at all. What I put in a team bio would only be an indicator of style of play. It in no way limits my options during a game. |

When/if the new statistics in the client is integrated into fumbbl everyone will be be able to see clearly how many fouls the players of a team has committed. I think anything that gives coaches a reason to dodge games is bad for the community though. It's hard enough to get game in faction as it is.
Your idea will force people to click in the "nice" box to get games. As long as people will follow their box choice fouling will be more or less vanish from the community.
Of course it's nice to play against a player that never fouls, on the other hand it would be even nicer to play against a player that doesn't even block, or have a one turner, or pass, or make GFI. The things is that the game won't be as fun if you gradually take away parts of the game. Some people seem to think that a perfect game would be that it always ended 4-4 without cas. You know what? Create a tournament where you set all games to ends this way, I'm sure it will be loads of fun. |

LOL Sure sure, IvanTheCow, I don't expect you to like this since you are a rampant + T8.
You fouled me in turn 8, since your dice were bad?
http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&op=view&id=180186
if 65% luck does frustrate you, I would like to see a game you play where your dice is less good then this.
And you have the best excuse I ever heard before to foul in turn 8 (you mailed me that remember?):
You wanted to SI or Kill my treemen with a T8 foul since it could be possible that my team will play one of your friends in the next game in a KO- tournament. I don't know who your friends are, but they first need to win at least 2 games to play against me, but sure there is a chance.
IvantheCow, maybe I get you off my ignorelist after all, since you are really really funny. |

I like this idea and have put it in my teams bio's. Although a run of bad luck may cause me to go against this, but then again if my luck is that bad I wont break armor and I'll get sent off so perhaps not.
Oh dear I appear to be rambling, what was my point?
Oh yes, good idea, although I didn't put anything for tournament teams, don't wanna give too much away. |
