Butthurt about being rated 1 on previous blog
Don't you hate it when you pour your heart out and get a 1 rating anyway.
Oh well feedback is feedback take it or leave it.
Eitherway, due to the butthurt, I feel compelled to explain the reason for my long absence.
End of 2016 as some of you know I rolled a great apo roll vs cancer.
However it appears it was more of a niggling injury roll than a full blown recovery as it came back last year. Been doing chemo and the such and no detectable clumps per latest MRI scans but continuing the treatment to kill any ongoing metastasis.
Work has been great and has been paying me most of my salary, am very lucky in this respect but haven't found much time for blood bowl.
Of late things have been getting better and finding time for other things again such as a return to the hallowed fumbbl.
Either way screw you guy that downvoted me and thanks to all the old timers that gave me love and support last time round.
Edit: I am the super mature IA
Edit 2: hey guy that downvoted the previous post - sorry I said screw you whoever you are, don't know why I took it so personal for no real reason given I've never met you and you would have had no idea about my personal circumstances.

Cheers buddy, that made me chuckle.

But 6 for the dodge vs the big C (the bad one, not the good one).

Thanks a lot - to be fair I have no idea why I felt so butt-hurt that I needed to blog about it, particularly as the previous post was not that interesting to read and probably covered past ground.
But there was a certain cathartic release to the follow up so thanks for your kind comment.

Cancer is a terrible disease, took my dad just last year.
Good luck with your battle

Thanks Anti and sorry to hear about your dad.
I am lucky to be getting excellent care and treatment and have a good support network. As things stand the treatment I am receiving is estimated to reduce the chance of another recurrence to approximately 20%.
Of course, this is where having failed those numerous gfis and other such rolls for match deciding moments is a curse but 80% is a good figure. But even if it returns as stage 4 I will fight on like a gobbo team with one turn left to equalize!
It is insane how many of us are affected by this disease yet I still walked around like I was invulnerable even after my Mum got breast cancer.

Good apo.
Best of luck!
PS: Still voted 1, because "butthurt."

Rated 6 for ogre legend rank in box :D

Welcome back & glad you're doing well. I sure remember some matches against your chaos in the box...not fondly ^-^

dying from cancer is easy, people do it every day. living with cancer is incredibly tough, you have my best wishes and respect.
Posted by ImpactedAnimal on 2018-07-04 19:55:18
Cheers guys, really appreciate your kind comments (also hopefully thoralf got my incredibly intelligent joke there).
Also Rbthma of the two matches we played you should at least remember one with pride - was in the build up to one of the majors (I think the Fumbbl Cup).
I'd stupidly decided to do one or two more prep matches before you tore into my squad :)

My wife had to have operations and chemo, and it was an extremely tough and stressful time. So I have to say well done on you for going through so positively!
Oh hand yes there are 1 or more people who like to vote 1 on blogs on fumbbl..

Thanks mate, really appreciate it and it doesn't really seem so important anymore on the 1 front, 1s are all part of the game after all and sometimes (when the opponent rolls them) we're pretty grateful for them!

Cpombing is in the past - any downvoting for irrelevant posts should not be taken personally.
I wish your fight against cancer also remains in the past.
Welcome back, lets clawmb some pixels and dp on some faces...

Rated SIX - glad to hear you're on the mend IA! We all know someone affected by cancer, it's a horrible disease - well done on fighting through it and hope you can now enjoy your BB again ;)

Six- love the BB injury analogies. My bothered had ruthless chemo he's achieved fill remission will be a daddy by Christmas (a 'frozen pop')!
Good for you on your recovery and positive attitude and humour best way to be.
