I've been sitting in the queue for couple days now for about an hour to two. I've only been able to join 1 game. Am I missing something? |

black box, or ranked?
If ranked, what kind of team are you playing, and what are you challenging? |

that's ranked then.
Chances are, it's that you're playing Orcs, and you're challenging teams that don't like playing orcs. |

I just joined a local BBL and that is the team they said is one of the friendliest to new players. So how can I get quicker matches? I mean I sat in queue for ALONG time kept having to refresh... |

You should have no problem to find a game with rookie Orcs. You just have to activate your team on gamefinder. |

Pbj4ugo, at this point you need to ready your orc team so you can enter them on gamefinder. Once you've done that it's a waiting game as other coaches filter in and out of gamefinder. To up your chances of securing a match, don't be picky, click the green check mark in the middle of the matchup to select for every team that becomes visible.
You already have a game scheduled with your other team and will need to play that first before you can put them in gamefinder. Private message the coach to get that game played. You can do that by clicking on their name and then going to the 'More' dropdown.
If it's simply no one has come along to even matchup, yeah, it can be slow some days. The summer especially wanes at times. |

Okay, I mean thats what I've been doing but it keeps timing out and saying I have to Refresh the Page. I've been at this daily for about a week(sometimes I give up quicker then others). I have select all and I just wasn't sure if there was another Queue I could join to find games faster. |

Sorry, I know this might seem obvious, but are you clicking the green ticks on the teams you want to challenge? That's how you actually make the challenge, until you do that it;s just a list of potential opponents. Maybe you've just been window-shopping!? |

There is another division called black box.
Create a team in there (https://fumbbl.com/p/createteam?op=race&division=10), then every 15 minutes there is a draw and if there's 4 coaches there's an algorithm that tries to make the best pairing.
https://fumbbl.com/p/blackbox This is the activation page.
There's a box on the left hand side that counts down to the 5 minute period of entering your team. When the 5 minute period opens you can select your team, and then sit and wait until the draw is made.
Sometimes even with 4 coaches there aren't suitable matchups (TV gap is too large or the team's ages are too far) and you have to try again. Ill get around to making a video. |

I believe the original gamefinder still works. go into chat and type bb lfg and the first three letters of your orc team. It'll advertise you to all in chatroom. |

Ok When I go to Gamefinder I only see my team which is check marked. I hit search for games and I get a "Wait sign" Next to Searching... after about 30 minutes it says I timed out refresh page. The one time I did find a game there was a challenge that popped up and I had to click the Green check mark which was next to a red X.
While searching in the bottom left of the White Screen it says there are X amount of teams and X amount of coaches. I tried doing the black box divison but idk how to get into queue.
Also on the Home screen of Fumbbl it says my teams name next to Resume. I click that and it opens a game but no one ever joins that either. Im so confused and frustrated... |
