Hi UTE! It took me a while to figure out at first, here's a quick guide of what I do now:

Well you need a team and download the game obviously. Then what I do is open the game on my computer (BBowl.jar). The person who starts the game is "server" and the person who joins is "client". Host is "fumbbl.com". You decide which port, just tell the client which you chose. The proxy is the name of the game (you can write UTE for example) so obviously you need to tell this to your opponent as well.

In the team 1 box, you write the location of the team roster (.html) To get it, go to your fumbbl.com homepage, click on the team you want to use, then in the menu click "View Roster". It will be an adress like this : http://fumbbl.com/teams/Highpaws.html

To get used to the buttons inside the game, you can try playing against yourself. This is the "Stand Alone" option in the game (bbowl.jar). You can choose Team 1 and Team 2 from your computer.

Hi, go to the red bar at the top of the page and put your cursor over the community menu, then click the chat option. On the next page click the java applet link near the bottom of the page. This will open the irc chat window. This is the best place to ask for help/advice or to arrange a game. To actually start a game you should go to your home page then click the play link next to your teams name. when the next window opens choose a proxy (sweden 1, 2, 3 or 4) the type in a proxy game name. These details you should share with your opponent then click launch as server or launch as client. If you click launch as server your opponent needs to click launch as client and vice versa.

If you are new to BB here is some useful adviceon team creation.
