Have a look at this team.

The "played games" list is interesting.

His match record as a coach is just as intriguing.

What, I ask you, is even the point of doing stuff like that?

Anyway, the account was apparently blocked two months ago. Wink

The coach and his players should have their nuts removed. Oh wait, from the looks of their schedule they all ready did !!

I had an unemployed friend back in the day who decided to take the Pittsburgh Penguins in EA's NHL '93 (might have been some other year) and play a game against the computer for each other team in the league. He'd keep track of the score for each game (e.g. 14-0 vs Tampa Bay, 11-0 vs the Rangers), and used the results for his own little study to figure out which opposing team was the best.

No challenge to it, took a lot of time, and really was almost completely pointless. But it kept him busy, I guess. Maybe it's the same thing here.

don`t understand why someone play with gobs/flings vs such a team...
and imho it`s not really fair to push a team up like this

Well, I think we should all give him the benefit of the doubt. No one can say for sure that one person is behind all 3 or 4 user names involved and is just artificially inflating his team rating. Instead, we have to assume that it is a small group of friends (from such exotic locales as Bolivia and Botswana) who wish only to play together.

</sarcasm>

Notes from the Rules:
Quote:
# You are allowed only one account per person.
# Your account is personal. You may not share it with others.
...
# A team may not play twice in a row against the same opposing team.
...
# FUMBBL is a competition league. You are welcome to introduce new players to the game, but do not upload results from learning games against a friend who does not know how to play. It's likely that a new player will suffer a number of losses while getting familiar with the game, and if these are all against one or two coaches those coaches will recieve an unfair benefit. Have your friend play people other than yourself; there are plenty of newer coaches joining all the time that will give them a more balanced game. If this rule is not followed, we will retire all of the affected teams.
...
# Arranged games (ie. playing to lose) will not be tolerated. The same applies for coaches allowing each other to score extra touchdowns and all other SPP generating events.
# Coaches are expected to play reasonably balanced games. Play against lower rated teams is allowed, but should not be abused. It is understood that sometimes teams need a recovery game against a lower ranked team after a particuarly boody game, but excessive play against lower ranked teams creates an unfair advantage and will not be tolerated.

take a look at his other team...and it's match record

http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=team&op=view&showmatches=1&team_id=21233

and a retired ogre team:

only playing flings and goblins is bad enough, but if it is a group of friends, they are only serving to pump up waterboy's teams, IMO

Honestly who cares. did any one notice that these teams were all tournament division teams. it doesnt do anything to help him out if its all tournament teams. if he starts doing this in open or divx then we should get on his case.

This guy and the others involved have all been blocked for 2 months and every new account he has tried making since has also been blocked. So there is no need to discuss this any more.
