FUMBBL, the online Blood Bowl league

Our fourth Online NAF tournament of 2016 is a partnership with one of the UK’s largest events, the Welsh Open! This rulespack should contain everything you need to know to enter the Online Welsh Open (OWO), and to be in with a chance of winning lovely physical prizes. Mynd Cymru!

The tournament will kick off on Monday September 12th, and applications are open now.

The rulespack can be found here, here and here, and is summarised below.

When is the Welsh Open?

The OWO is linked to the Welsh Open, one of the UK’s largest tabletop BB tournaments. Details on the Welsh Open 2017 can be found in this thread. Why not take a trip to the great nation of Wales?

Issue 17 of FUMBBL's finest publication, the Grotty Little Newspaper, is hitting a newsstand near you right... NOW!



As ever, the GLN staff have worked hard to bring you the very best the site has to offer. This issue, we have an exclusive interview with Big C, the tactical insight of Legendary coaches and a window into the crazy mind of a Goblin coach or two (spoiler: it's scary in there...). And that's just the beginning!

Please do stop by the GLN feedback forum and let us know what you think. The team contributes to the GLN for your enjoyment, so let them know what you like! A sincere thanks to all of the GLN staff for their hard work, but especially to Kam for his clever coding. It doesn't look as pretty as it does by accident, and he's done a great job of the zeros and ones.

We're always looking for more staff, so if you'd like to contribute to GLN 18 and beyond, make yourself known!

Cheers, and enjoy!

The end of summer brings the most prestigious tournaments of the year, and the Stunty division is leading the charge with this year's Stunty Cup. Applications are now open for the modified double-elimination tournament which begins August 17th.

As mentioned in an earlier news post, I need to replace a NIC (Network Interface Card) for one of the servers (Roxanna). This means that the IRC and FFB Servers will be down for the duration of this maintenance (I estimate roughly an hour to do the swap and reconfigure the network traffic to use the new card).

This maintenance will start at noon today (12:00 server time).

I apologize for the inconvenience of this downtime, but hope it won't affect too many of you.

Edit: This has been completed, and we're back online as usual.
