Personally I can take or leave the 'preferred team' proposal.

I quite like the uncertainty of which of my 3 team's I am going to play....regardless of their condition/strength


Good point... Perhaps there should be a "dont care" button which doesn't make any team more likely to get a game?

Once out in full swing maybe you can promise to force retire all BlackBox teams to force a fresh start. It may help people with playing matches for you to get full data.

I hope not, as I have grown quite attached to my Mice in Black.

If there is a reset, then all data and stats would have to be cleared too.

I also grow attached to my pixels, so I would be sad to see my fluffed up heroes vanish. I don't really see a need for a "fresh start" either.

Have to just add I LOVE the [B]lack box division. I KNOW I can get a game (barring an uneven or light draft). No more waiting for some schmuck to try and cherrypick my butt in [R]anked. I may eve start another team, but so far having too much fun rebuilding my DELFS after their initial dismantling

Rather than giving everyone a fresh start, how about this?

A 1 time amnesty for bringing any number (or a fixed number) of your Ranked teams into the Blackbox.

Anyone else miss their Ranked team, now that they have converted to Blackbox?

Gawd. No Amnesty. No Conversion. Build your team in [B] if you want it there.

Excellent. Getting better every day Smile

I would also like a 'activate all' option at times, but would not be unhappy if I always had to prefer one team.

No! Too meany high ranking teams there that have been built up by dodging or cherry picking... In B you atleast have to really build the team.

Ok. You and Kryten have a valid point about the Giant Cherry Picker teams.

But it would be nice with some chance to move a team out of the [R]-for-retired division into the Box.

How about a TR limit of say 150, for a one time amnesty? Or a game played limit?

It's too bad that some of the work we've put into Ranked should go to waste.

I dont like the preferred option of which team you want to play... if you dont want to play them, retire them!

I'm wondering how this match adds up with the scheduler:

http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&id=2439283

Chaos vs Khemri

Chaos up 29 in TS with a better win record, more TD's and more cas. Ranked rating for the Chaos coach is 12 points higher.

Sounds like an inherently "unfair" matchup to me.

I think that every khemri team deserves that, the question is, who will do that to the chaos team Very Happy

xcer, CR has nowt to do with BR - BR is earned in the the box, not the result of cherrypicking. Very Happy

and its 24 TS, modified to 14 by the handicaps.

This is a truly babyish concession. After 3 turns 3 mummies had been cas'd but 2 had regenned and the other was just MNG. Chaos had a CW and a beasty in the BH box in the meantime. No permanent injuries and still plenty to play for - khemri still had the ball and it was turn _THREE_.
I hate to see weak concessions in blackbox. What happened to needing admin approval for concessions? (was away from FUMBBL for 6 months)
