I introduced a roommate of mine to this game and we've been playing back and forth but recently we got curious about where we should go after our teams become too good for ranked.
We're not really interested in playing anybody other than ourselves and anyone else we convince to play with us-- and it's for this reason I imagine it wouldn't exactly be appreciated if we joined the ranked division.
I looked for an unranked division and could not find one (this is just from the new create a team option). So what is the proper ettiquette if I wish to continue playing solely my roommate after our teams become too good for Academy?
I'm not at all familiar with the league option (so I'm not sure if creating a two person league would be our best bet) and both of us are new players (though he is an avid tabletop gamer).
So, where should I go once we hit 150? |

Oh dear. Did you...........read any of the rules at all?
League is your only option, the only place you can play so many back to back games. You should really be playing there now! |

I did read the rules, but it was quite some time ago when I was still learning the game so I've likely forgotten some slightly important elements.
How would I go about transferring teams into league play? Or do I have to make entirely new teams?
Thanks for the input and excuse my ignorance. Noob here. |

Go to the team page for your Academy team, at the bottom of the page there is a button that says "Transfer to League Division" |

So why do you guys even bother with Fumbbl then? Just play the tabletop version with each other (especially if you are room mates!) over and over until you fall asleep...
Weirdness....  |

Possibly because the site can handle team management, dice rolls etc and doesnt need a table or figures for every team........ |

This.
We own the table top but we're busy university students and it's much easier and quicker to get in a game using fumbbl.
Also, we have the opportunity to play with teams that we don't own physically. We're both very new to this, remember, and consider the broke unfortunate university student who cannot afford expensive models.
As fun as playing Orcs versus Humans over and over again is, I'd rather mix it up a bit and have a computer calculate the dice rolls for me. Call me lazy, but we can sit side by side on a laptop each and do it much quicker than having to pull out a board and set everything up.
It's just simpler. Call me crazy or lazy or whatever, but it works easiest for us.
Anyways-- thanks for the help everyone. We're trying to get a few interested others into our little noob blood bowl group and we may even start our own little league. |

One thing to watch out for.
If a bunch of you are using the same computers or internet connection to play each other make sure you let the admins know or it might look like you are multi-accounting.
I really don't see why anyone is complaining about you guys playing this way, part of the joy of this site is that it accomodates all types of players. |

But its a much better experience to play with the tabletop game! Even if you use proxy models because you don't have the right ones. Its just more awesome, and you can't get those stupid mistakes where you pick a guy up and fuck you should have moved him later, forget to click blitz etc.
But yeah, their choice. The question has already been answered though: League. |

Do admins patrol non-league [L] matches and academy games?
If not, I would assume they'd be fine unless one or both of them get bored and decide to upgrade to [R] or [B]. |
