Season VII is a go!
And we've got big plans for this season. Big plans, I say! The Box Full of Money fundraiser is live, and as of right now we have pledges for:
ARR x 4
Humans x5
Whichever has more completed sprints: another x1
This means that every ARR sprint you complete will earn $4 for FUMBBL - and that's if no one else comes forward to add to that multiplier. Don't have time to play, or want to add to the fun(ds)? Read the blog linked above and then PM me about your donation pledge!
Also in the news:
* ARR turns one year old this month!
* Not coincidentally, the box scheduler change also turns one year old this month!
* Come lurk on IRC in #metabox, the channel we share with our mortal enemies... er... friends... FRIENDS at the Human League Premiership.
*This is the last month of our FUMBBL dice contest! For details on how you could win a free set of FUMBBL dice check out the button on our group page.
* ARR has grown to 201 teams over the past year, most of which are still active. This puts us neck and neck with the HLP in terms of numbers and good enough for the 6th biggest group on FUMBBL! ARR!
* Season VI awards are here.
* Did I mention our IRC channel, #metabox? |

Zed's flings destroy my Helfies in the second round of ARR brawl. Great game, but as promised they are out without winning so they have been retired!
I wanted to elaborate a bit, since my team was created years ago with the old table (since translated into bbcode) of BWR and BBR showing how underplayed HE were. My aim was to play a team that no one wanted to play (Sound familiARR?) - but I ran into 3 minmaxers in my first 7 games and I got so frustrated that I shelved the team... And now here we ARR with the low TV minmax teams no longer the problem that they were and HE are more played than zons, almost as much as woodies in fact! Sail on, my friends, the waters abound in treasure! |

Oh, that means, if I (as unlikely as it seems) beat Azure's flings, I'll face flings in the final, too. Three games with High Elves vs. Flings in a Brawl... seems unreal. But it's very reARRl in fact.
Should I lose of course, we'll see an epic halfling final! |

I will pledge 1$ for every Kill the Stud Mens do over 10 games. So basically highest number of kills they cause out of 10 games jimmy shows me a the end of this thing even if he plays more than 10 games. |

Greetings comARRades,
First week of the season and we are still wARRming up.
The team that stands out so far is without doubt mrt1212's Villaraeliae BBC BBL (Goblin) reaching the unbelievable TV of 2010!!
In the ARR Brawls we had a record turn out of 23/32 teams resulting in a couple of new BrawlARR champs, my own HighARR Elves in Black Box Brawl CLXI and Zed's Soul Experience (Halfling) in Black Box Brawl CLXII in an unprecedented Fling final!
https://fumbbl.com/p/match?id=3629138
We must not forget Azure's Paladins of Faith (dwARRf) who won Black Box Brawl CLX (their second ARR Brawl!) against all odds (only six stunties in that Brawl). The ARR committee is considering to invite the Paladins to join ARR as honorARRy members for their spectaculARR achievements (provided that they never apply to an ARR Brawl again)
The group page has been updated with the ARR racial records.
Dont forget, this season we are sprinting to support FUMBBL so get those sprints going! |

I have a feeling that my Gobbos will draw the Paladins in the Minor for all the hARRd time I'm giving you |

Do I need to wait until my team is accepted to the group page before playing, or can I get started right away? Not sure how that script works. |
