Goblin failed to get a game
Today i failed in both divisions Box and Regular to get a game. Beeing the only coach activated in Box i set my Goblin on the gamefinder and got challenged by Dwarf.
For half an hour that was all I received as offers. Either people are afraid of my team (how could they) or i need to seek more actively for a game. I kind of expected more challenges by all different races than i received lately.
I wonder whats the reason behind this lack of challenges. Hopefully i find out so that I get a game per day which is currently only possible in the morning.

There are 4 reasons I'd play against gobbos:
1. I'm also playing a joke/fun team (gobbos or flings)
2. I've got a rookie team roughly in their TS/TR range and they're not dwarfs/CD/etc
3. My own team is beat up badly and a recovery game looks like an even match
4. They challenge me
I don't avoid playing them, it's just that it feels like bullying to go picking on them with "real" teams. I know there are good coaches out there who do well with goblins, but mostly they are freebies for whoever plays against them.

I never challenge Gobbo's or Flings as it makes me feel like a picker. If they challenge me I've never refused (yet!).

So basically the advice is to put my team on the gamefinder and actively seek for a game... Fair enough, i'll give that a try tomorrow morning...

Kinks is right on.
When I play my Gobo team Iam the one who does the challenges. I allmost never get turned down. Except by the weak at heart who just cant handle seeing two goblins with DP.
