Foul intentions
So, it appears I might foul a bit...
In ranked, the #1 active orc fouler and #2 active necro fouler.
In blackbox, #1, #2 active khemri foulers.
Must foul more...
Although in my last game, 4 fouls, 4 sent off, 6/7 rolls were doubles, including a 1,1 for the final armour roll.
So even if fouls fail, they're funny.

The first two votes were 1s - obviously people who have been on the receiving end of my players boots!

Well looking at how well they've done out of it, that's doubtful. More likely someone who didn't get one of those games against you and is now regretting it.

I've got the #1 active lizard fouler: http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=player&op=view&player_id=7597513 (and #4 all time)
Honestly though, fouling is looking pretty noobish these day. It's a lot like making 1db blocks, except the odds of players leaving the pitch is higher (for both sides!). You can justify it in certain circumstances, but doing it a lot is just Zen Noobism: if the dice fall your way it looks like you were a savant. If not, you just sank your own team.
LRB4 it was often the first skill on a team. CRP I hardly ever take it anymore (my little skink is ye olde schoole LRB4 holdover)

In old days, fouling was a "no brain to do thing"
In these days, foulingh is a possibility, to not be used without the right possible return.
It's a dangerous tactical choice and not a easy to do thing

i was much more selective with my fouls under LRB4. Under CRP i foul much less in global, but when I pick the fouling strategy, i foul anything on the turf.
My record is 11 fouls in a friendly game :D

Fouling is dead. Long live piling on... or not.

Having some good foulers is one of the antidotes to piling on. I've beaten BillBrasky's WMD's in the Box more than once by simply fouling him out the game. Minmaxers with 11 players vs some dirty fouling skeletons can end up suffering quite badly - unless each foul is a stun and a sending off.
