well im up to turn 4, my opponent is playing well, but got quad skulls, loner worked. He has a bit of wrestle, but Im using it to my advantage at the minute, using them as "safe" blocks as going down on a wrestle doesnt turn over, so I opened up his offence nicely and Ive KO'ed a blitzer, sacked the ballcarrier now i have 2 beastmen over the ball.

Doesn't he know that he can opt not to use wrestle? It's far better for him to have you suffer a turnover after all  |

I've often wondered, because PBeM is based on HTML rosters, just as FUMBBL is (sort of), they could be interchangeable. I believe FUMBBL rosters would work in PBeM, anyway. It makes one think of the possibilities - SkiJunkie would have some competition, instead of being the sole client provider for FUMBBL! |

just tried it again in the tool...
It said "Selecting a both down result automatically places both of you prone witout any armour rolls!" his player is 6 3 3 8 Wrestle anyway
So i guess im doing it right |

Seems like it Also looks like the system isn't entirely flawless  (Unless I'm wrong and Vault rules say you can't decide wether to use a skill or not) |

A couple of things you might want to know.
The tool isn't as automated, but is a lot more flexible - in brownrobs Wrestle example, his opposite number should be leaving him directions on how to handle it. Its easy enough to fix things up.
Theres a lot more trust involved in it, but there are plenty of checks for cheating in the tool.
Games may take a couple of days, but you can have many going on at oen time with a few different teams. I know since I started, I'm finding it much mroe convenient, and my fumbbl has dropped off dramatically. |

Somebody lock this thread!
Nah, not really, it's rather entertaining anyway. Let's see when rob finishes his game. Hopefully before christmas. |

midway through the second half and ive already scored (on his offence in 1st half) but have the ball and am trundling about, i killed a player but when i went to save, the game crashed!!!! (arggghhhh!!!!!) but i reloaded the save (hope that doesnt count as cheating :S ) but the guy lived this time, but instead, another guy died.... Lol i could be booted out after one game |

That is one great sig, rob. It would actually be funnier with the rat carrying the ball. |

Always wished I had time to play FUMBBL ... just don't have the straight time to sit down and play which is why Ronald and I created the PBeM program. Granted its not nearly as fast but I often fishing my games in a week (assuming my opponent can play 2 or 3 turns a day) and as chunky said ... I normally have 6 or 7 games going at once.
Its definitely not a format for everyone for sure ... but I need to get some mass data to make sure that the PBBL rules worked before they became official and nothing beats an online league for massive amounts of data to sift through. Its at least already shown me some problems with some of the special play cards and that Ramut and Icepelt are evil with Block (as is allowing Morg and Ramtut to play for Khemri at the same time). So its definitely showing some of the abusive holes that we had discussed might be a problem but weren't sure on the SG forum.
