Ranked got spanked by a division that is set up exactly the same way Ranked is set up (except that you don't gain or lose Ranking for playing FFB).
Woohoo... the soon to be NEW Ranked is as popular as current Ranked.
Meanwhile Black Box is almost as popular as League. |

Nor is it a Ranked thread, but it was pointed out anyway. Perhaps instead of all this Division centred nonsense we could point out that the rise in FFB games seems to partially come from an influx of new coaches.
THAT is the good news, not the fact that the distribution of total games played between the divisions has changed. |

I concur. Ranked seems to be holding steady now, which is a good thing, so the increase in FFB popularity is mostly due to new coaches using it, and to a lesser extent Box coaches playing there when they can't get a Box game scheduled (Myself and at least 3 other regular box players do this). It will be interesting when the inevitable change across happen as to what the new split of games will be. |

This is no competition, really! For Fumbbl it's best if the TOTAL number of games increases, no matter in which division they take place.
I'm just happy that you are using the new client and I do get wagonloads of bug reports (which will help the quality of the software if I ever manage to fix them all).
Thank you all for your enthusiasm! |

That so many people are using FFB shows that it is up to the job. That's what people wanted hear.
The more coaches there are in a particular division the easier it is to get a fair game. New people who get beaten in every match often get discouraged and leave.
Currently there are too many divisions. |

I have monitored the stats and waited for this day. A nice one indeed.
It seems like FFB will be the thing that will turn the downwards trend on Fumbbl. |
