Belated 6 month Fumbblversary entry
Been on Fumbbl for over 6 months now. I know I am only still a noob compared to some other coaches, but I love this site. I have seen many things from moaners and whingers to crazy plays that need ridiculous rolls to succeed. This blog is to remind me of how I am feeling right now in case I need to revisit it!

There is one thing that I have learned above all else in that time. You can be the best coach ever but if the dice go against you then you are screwed. You can be the worst coach ever and beat a legend. But that's the point right?! If this site was dominated just by great coaches then surely there would be less people playing?! The fact that it is a dice game advertises that Nuffle will be at work. So what if you lose hopelessly to a 'Rookie'?! It will make that guys day! Just don't complain about it. The game is random. Yes on paper coaches have advantages but what is wrong with one for the little guy?! I have seen many people, when speccing, moaning about the luck of the dice. Stuff happens. I have been on the end of a string of 'dicings' as we all have and it can hurt. I get it. But let's smile as we go maybe? Luck changes. Runs begin and end. I like to know, personally, that at the end of the match both coaches have had a decent match even through a dicing. Being sympathetic, not moaning/blaming, etc. Oh man, so many times I have wanted to lose it and type so many things!!

In a recent Dalfort blog I admitted to being kind of addicted. I am. But not to the game but to the community and what the site offers. Something that you won't get any where else in my opinion. Team logos, bios, fluff, leagues, ranked, box, majors, minors, etc. And to top it all off it's FREE!! (Please insert saying here i.e. don't look a gift horse in the mouth, etc)

So praise to the admins and big C. Also to all the coaches who make this site a diverse one.

Oh, and yes I need to change my profile pic as it looks like I a farting...he he
Posted by PaddyMick on 2013-10-07 12:10:25
Well said. I had a game last night where I was getting a bad beat and the other coach only chatted to moan about luck; no grats, no thanks, nothing except whining - and he was winning comfortably without any casualties. I couldn't help thinking he just didn't 'get it'.

happy just over half birthday
make sure you come to the naf championship in nottingham next may, it will be uber-awesome and you'll love it :)

So far, seems like you averaged playing 4 games / day. Are you unemployed?

Sounds terrible to me... May Fumbbl live long, but please don't die because of it! :)
Posted by Throweck on 2013-10-07 21:14:11
Not un-employed. I am a Head Teacher of a Primary School. Holidays give lots of time to play and I play in the evening and weekends mostly. :D

Good blog.
Make a fumbbl class at school.
Posted by FatEddie on 2013-10-08 15:55:14
I'm a primary school teacher as well and tend to get a good two matches or more in a day, normally I'm marking books at the same time :). Totally agree with your stance on moaning, pointless and not fun to listen to.
