Cool list.

Do we draw any conclusions from it at all?


Yes. Spiraling Expenses need to have higher levels

I believe he was being ironic. SE needs some 'tweaking' but if you look at most of the teams, it isn't an SE thing. It's a abusing the system and polluting the environment thing.

Updated the Rich List again.

Not so much movement this time, with only three new teams entering and only two races being particularly upwardly mobile (Amazons and Humans). Not such a big increase in amounts of gold either, and in many cases there has been a decrease. Could this be the beginning of the end for money hoarding?

(Probably not)


It's the Second Anniversary of the FUMBBL Rich List!

The Necromantics still look unassailable at the top of the list, and Ogres languish at the bottom. Elsewhere, Pro Elves overtook their Wood Elf cousins, Dwarves overtook Lizards, and both Humans and Amazons were big losers (although this was probably just a reaction to their climb last update).

I think it might be time for another update to the Unofficial FUMBBL Rich List! With the shock retirement of the previous number 1 spot, the list has been shaken up, and the average wealth has dropped by over 200,000! We have a new number 1, and 5 new entries.

Not that I am intentionally trying to get on the list, but I might as well get credit for stumbling into it. My Charnelhouse_Dune have 690K saved up which should be good enough to bump those Ogres off.

Update: Doh, I can't read. The list is ranked by race, not by money. I'm nowhere close to the top of the Undead list. Stupid Ogres.

Don't worry - you're certainly not the first to make that classic mistake, and I doubt you'll be the last either!

in that case, should official action not be, err, cough, taken?

Actually, if you look at the current list, there is very little journeyman "abuse". It was certainly true of the original, but not really true any more, in my opinion.

Interesting that qvite a lot of these teams dont seem to be vsing the fvll range of positionals. Seems that the best way to hoard money is to field a gimped team.

Or be a minmaxer.

Overreaction somewhat.

I find the minmax low tv teams distasteful, but I don't see any rule-breaking here and this issue has been discussed to death in more appropriate threads anyway. Many of the teams here are just natural products of playing a good amount of games in an environment that encourages tv sweet-spotting and doesn't lead to them needing replacements. That's the way CRP and blackbox rolls. If it's so objectionable, change blackbox - it's responsible for almost every meta-gaming issue brought up on the forums.

tv sweetspotting in the blackbox would be less of an issue if you can ban yourself from playing against certain players/teams. Oh... And actually follow blood bowl rules and not a bastardization that supports what the black box is now. I'm talking about concessions.

That's interesting. Main reason I don't play box so much is that I find ranked have friendlier coaches. Most of my blacklist comes from box.

How would you change concessions?
