I want to try to introduce friends to fumbbl. BB and R are not the place. I don't want to set up several leagues to do it (friends in different time zones).

お願い致します。 (Very polite Japanese "please").

There is hardly any difference between A and L (if A was CRP). I don't see why you 'need' A for introducing friends.

Wang, you could set up 1 open format League or (not sure if this is possible) a league where everyone is scheduled against your team with optional matches against others.

League would be how i'd teach friends using Fumbbl. Smile

You could just make a L team and play each other there. You don't need to be part of a league to play [L] Div.

This.

[L] is a division just like any other. Except there are fewer rules and you have the option to setup leagues there.

I have a few friends who are new to the game/client. A little messing about in L gets them up to speed, no problem. Outside of an actual league, no one cares what you do in L.

Didn't realise that was possible in L. Sounds great though. Thanks!

If they are based in the far east, they should join SWL. SWL has its own channel and play open games in league.

They are also sympathetic to newcomers problems and open environment isn't competitive liked ranked.

PM me if you want any advice.

The big difference is that [A] marks a coach on gamefinder as a possible rookie so people can offer help.

I suggest making a league which has an open system - which means you can choose when you play who.

(On a side note (I read your bio), I really do not like time outs myself, but I also, two wrongs does not make one right)

I know, but the lack of A should not be a problem if you want to introduce new friends.
