You are judging a behaviour that is not against the rule, I've just said that, in my opinion, it is not right to freeze a team waiting 4 days to stop the situation and allow my team to play again.
I've stopped to play BB live for family issues, but in my league there were people like Boar, Rolex, Owen, Gotti (people that was in nation cups) and I've done very good things in BB, not like you ofc, you are a real legend, but I can defend myself too.
Anyway was just a consideration...and I really do not accept to be responsable for other faults.
Like saying:"if i go out in the nighte and a thief rub me is a problem...so don't go out in the night".
The stole action should be punished...that's all.
Thanks for chat...see ya to all |

Well, I somehow am ranked in the top 60 despite my obvious lack of skill, but the issue with wanting to face me is I only really am able to activate in late NA time box, and I only play box to prevent myself from being a cherrypicker. Because I would very much be one if I didn't. |
gamefinder is your friend in this case we can arrange a match in a convenient time for both.
pm me

@RD, sure. Ping me, we'll work out a time. I'm even farther afield than Drrek, though: he's in the eastern half, I spent the morning watching the Pacific. |

Just think about it:
The winner gets a GW miniature painted by none other than... ME!
oooooooooooooooooooo
No concessions allowed!
No rage-quits!
No 'voluntary' disconnections!
A true paradise for professionals!
come on, show some spine! I’m even accepting matches via Game Finder! |
I tried, I got up to like 101st or 103rd on the CR ratings and then lost like 10 out of the next 14 games |

Jump is right that cherry-picking opponents is not illegal... But maybe it should be.
I see a lot of new players being farmed for CR (in particular by a certain Spanish player) and can't help to think that this is a rotten welcome to the community. We all cherished the wins when learning blood bowl, and we don't know how many people lost enthusiasm or left fumbbl for losing those matches. For what?
This could be solved by preventing star or bellow players from receiving offers from mega stars or legends. They could still play by proposing the match, blackbox, or private leagues.
They'd wait more to play but get more balanced games. |

Everyone is driven by something different. That which seems useless to some, is important to others.
I do not respect high TV coaches who reach the summit by picking, but who am I to judge.
But I agree that the consequences of their behaviour often hurt the community as a whole by driving away potential users and staining the reputation of the site. And if they are incapable of caring about this by themselves, they should be forced to.
The problem should be addressed in some way. But I have no idea how. And frankly, I've been here forever and this topic has been discussed to death and back for twenty years now. |

I like the idea of guardrails, but I think a warning message on the acceptance screen would be better than a firm rule. Like above the "accept/decline" buttons, a red "CAUTION" blurb letting you know about a coaching skill mismatch.
Like, it's not just pickers. In the middle of the night, I'll take whatever comes my way, and if it's a brand new coach, frankly, I don't want the risk of having to go to the admins because they freaked out and DC'ed. I also don't like the risk of driving them off the site because they didn't get enough warning.
But it would suck if noobs could only play other noobs, a one-way guardrail does nothing for the babe in the woods who picks their own experience without enough information, and there's still the problem of veterans getting teams stranded by noobs who pick them. A warning would address all that. |
