** Milford from his penthouse suite in Altdorf **
Well FUMBBL fans the GLT has wrapped up and all the fan fare has died off.
Now it is time to head off far to the east, to the Dark Lands for the 3rd Box major of the year: THE BLACK CUP
So head off to Zharr Naggrund and the desolation of the Chaos Dwarfs. Do not expect a huge party like here in Altdorf. All you will get out there is black soot, disgruntled Chaos Dwarfs and the best food you can possibly find is a fine Gruel, call CrAp.
But this is a major. We are here for Blood Bowl and not fine food, entertainment and fun. No way Jose! This is serious stuff. Glory, Fame and a really large championship trophy is on the line.
So get you Box team applied and ready to rumble in a gloriously basic straight up KO style tournament. No gimmicks, just straight up, make a draw and they start knocking some heads.
** Side Note **
Milford will not make the trip to the desolation of the Chaos Dwarfs, he has no desire to go there to be honest. Instead he is loading up his stemmer trunk and getting set for his summer vacation down on the glorious beaches of Lustria for the Lustrian Challenge. He prefers to go where the "beautiful" people go and over half of them are in bikinis on a beach.
GET YOUR TEAMS APPLIED, draw is on Wed the 8th.

How are the prep matches going?
Team taking on more perm damage? More retired players? Team is actually worse off than when you started to "prep", Pimp and oozes every last few SPP on those players to skill them up.
I only needed 1 SPP to skill up my blitzer to 51+...ended up losing 2 lino and a super star to get that one SPP.: unnamed, random Black Box coach getting ready for the Black Cup.
OR
I just needed one soft match to get all my MNG back, drew a CPOMB heavy team and now Iam slagged out: Some poor chump who is laying dead on the side of the road |

My team went from 1640 to 1940 in three games; couple of doubles, a new ogre and some fodder; my humans are ready to go! |

They said that there is nothing to prove... They said that the Black Cup is the little league compared to the big leagues with the Fumbbl Cup... They said that they are content basking in the spoils of victory and just rotting away on a forlorn bender...They said they had no desire on playing a spam of teams that would just willingly lay down before them at the chance for a win, with a total disregard to the integrity of the game they love... They said it was disrespectful.. They said it's a crutch.. They said that it's easy mode... Well...
They said all this before finding out that they had a chance to get a little green mutator on the squad.
Now... They say, "SF is king... It's gonna get ugly." |

"This isn't about winning a major. This is about doing what is right and being true to ourselves. Never again should we stand by idle while one of our brothers is offered up as some sort of sick trophy. Now is the time to make a stand and reject the tyranny of the Fumbbl Tournament Commission. This is about liberty, freedom, and justice for all underworld gobbos!" - Strangers of the WussballARRs! |

Get ready FUMBBL fans. Black Cup draw is tonight at around 22:00 Server time or so.
So get those last minute applications rolling in. This is a no limit open tournament, you can throw in a rookie TV1000 team if you so desire. So no excuses to not apply a team, roll some block dice, spend some inducment cash and see if you can get a opening round win!!!! |

Dark Sea Raiders have finished off their prep work. Now they are relaxing in a dungeon that limelights as a hostel/brothel.
Drinking fine wine from their homeland and coming up with all kinds of devious plans on how to lay a really nasty DP boot up your butt. |

Well I have gotten some requests from coaches to bring back a "pickers challenge". We have not done one this year, so, back by popular demand.
Altdorf Book and Casino "Pickers" Challenge
FUMBBL fans it is time to introduce the pickers challenge for the Black Cup.
Here is how it is going to work.
Every Wed. I will post 10 interesting matches for you to choose from. You will pick 5 of the matches. The entry form will have the 5 picks ranked from your 5 point game to your 4 point game all the way down to your 1 point game.
So the most points you can get in a round is 15 points. Every Wed. I will post 10 more matches and off we go for round 2.
So you are picking 5 games out of the 10 posted. You will rank your 5 picks by points you earn for a win. So your stone cold lock you would pick for your 5 point match and your toss up, I have no clue match as your 1 point match. Every round we add up the total points earned and keep a running total as we go through the BC.
NOW there will be a speculation bet worth 5 points also. It will be in the vein of: Of the 10 matches which one do you think will have a combined score (touchdowns) of 6+. Or of the 10 matches which one will have a combined CAS line that exceeds 10+CAS in the match. |
