I've notice something similar. Whenever a bomb is thrown at someone, it is *always* caught. Like 100% of the time. Also I don't think there's any fuse roll.

As a result I never throw at someone, just adjacent.

Hey,

this will sound so strange, but i have the feeleing that the odds on fumbbl are way off. I know its crazy, bad games happen and so on, but just take a look at my last game here. Its absolutely crazy.

https://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&id=3948955

I think the odds were way off - i had 5 double skulls, got 4 cas vs. Elven Union 2 of them kills and made 1 - and we had an equal amount of blocks.

Feel free to look through my games i am certain you wont find many lucky ones but a lot of bad ones.


I have played a lot of games on fumbbl and i have never felt lucky. In fact i had some pretty bad mess ups, especially in some tourney games. I ragequit at least twice.
Lately i started playing BB TT and had some games on BB2 and here is the thing: I am not really lucky on those platforms, but i never had the bad games i had here on fumbbl.

And right now i am very, very tired of it.

I have had plenty of bad luck games but I'm still amazed that someone with over 1000 games played and a very positive win record is complaining about the Random numbers on here.

You have "NEVER FELT LUCKY"? That really tells a lot about your mindset. If you smash someone in to the ground such as with more casualties you will always put that down to your superior skill?? Be reasonable man.

Very, very obviously the average play level is higher on here than on Cyanide and on many tabletop leagues that include relatively casual players. That is why you are not winning almost every match. Though you are still doing well.
The game code is not biased against you.

I liked the game where a Zombie, Mummy and Troll were tossing the bomb back and forth until the Mummy finally thru it back at the troll only for it to scatter back to the original bomber, who shrugs it off. I can only conclude that Nuffle loves random bomb action.

Agreed, I've noticed the same. It's not even close to how often a passed ball is intercepted. Since I think the RNG uses multiple types of input from games to generate the next number (like poker sites do) this may well be a real bug. Other than that I have not noticed the rolls being weird or uneven.

Though most often the bomb catch is a catch roll rather than a true intercept.

RNG stands for Random Name Generator, among other things.

Please, do not mention Spiro.

I think the RNG tries to compensate - if you get some good luck one game, it makes sure you get a run of bad luck in your next games. It's hardly random like a dice is on tabletop, it's a computer program with a mysterious algorithm behind it.

Also proof it can't be random: the only player I ever had on Fumbbl that was close to legend went for a GFI on turn 16 to score a winning TD (and the SPP would have made him a legend) but he tripped and died instead Sad. What is the real chance if that? Like a 1000 to 1, but on FUMBBL it's like 100 percent.

The 1st paragraph is fine trolling Grod. Smile

Though GFI in endzone always seems disturbingly high pressured and prone to fail :-O

His name was Spiro. We miss him.
