Eh, it's ok TC. We all want to win and we all know it can't happen all the time. It's ok to vent as long as it's all in good fun and we all remember it's just a game. I understand what you mean with the fouling but when I'm losing already and there is no hope of winning I feel like 'why not?'. Now to tell you something funny:
I'm the worst sore loser you will ever meet when it comes to video games. I will scream and curse and yes, I will even throw a tantrum and roll on the floor..... all in the comfort of my own home. One time I lost in Street Fighter and it was completely my fault and yet I was still acting like a freaking baby. My brother happened to be over and he said it sounded like I was killing an animal. It's actually funny as shit and I bet if I taped all of my tantrums and posted them on Youtube I'd be super rich.
The weird thing is I am learning the table top version of Blood Bowl at my local board game store right now. My record there is probably 3-11 at best and I haven't thrown a tantrum. Go figure...... Maybe it's because I don't wanna embarrass myself in public. |

T16 fouling is an inalienable right. You want to know what's worse? In OT when you only have one player left on the field and the opponent is standing on the endzone while they systematically try to foul your last player off the pitch. That gets me salty. |

My fave is to do a T16 fake foul, btw. Hilarity! |
Yeah, most coaches will try to score if it's even remotely feasible. If it's not, that's when the boots come out.
So, that's one way to avoid the T16 foul--play badly enough to leave a T16 score open. |

There's only a couple of things in this game that irks me- one is coaches who insist on playing with auto-move "off" cause they think it will dodge them through TZ. |

Coaches who quit leagues in the middle of a season with no excuse are jerks. People who concede matches they’re not supposed to are jerks. Foul away. |

as someone who plays league only i'd be appalled if my opponent doesn't t16 foul if he has the chance (and there is no reason for mercy). it's just good manners. |

^^ The crowd when a T16 Foul is squandered, or the chance to surf a player their way is ignored... |

EDIT: Nope, it was t15. I walked in the score on t16. |

Blood is in the name of the game. i've been stomped t16 and i have stomped. Should try and protect good players as you usually would. as people previously mentioned it also fits the fluff. |

If you don't want your good player to get turn 16 fouled, don't put him in a space where he can get knocked down and turn 16 fouled |

if you don't want your players to get fouled in turn 16, concede the game in turn 15 - simple |
