yeah sadly the person doing the rules just does not take criticism at all well, and that web site really is the pitts, its soo full to the brim of sycophants kissing up to the new devs. You can't get anything through to him sadly, and there aren't enough people that post there, even though the vast majority of coaches i speak with agree with the position you and I hold, there are very few that let the devs know the problems they are causing. |

In that thread you're talking about the DZ books referring back to the rules as non-optional and there's a comment about Coldsteel 'counting as' a cheerleader, but I'm sure that's not what you meant. I don't want to necro an old thread on a site I don't even post on, but the following is directly from DZ:
Playing League Matches: Pre-Match Sequence
The pre-match sequence must be used for every league match that is played.
1) Roll on Weather Table
2) Choose Inducements
3) Draw Special Play Cards
4) Flip for Kick-Off
That's conclusive. Definitely optional |

Thanks! I thought playing cards are optional but you and the conversation we made on Discord convinced me that cards are mandatory enough to have them in FUMBBL main divisions. Sad part of it that it took our rules more away from the official.
Anyways, I was not criticizing FUMBBL not being official. I am fine with that and would be happy with a FUMBBL specific game too. But it is not official in its current state IMO. I will do my best to help on that though. |

It is optional. The rules are just a mess at the moment, with so many different sources all over the place. The sequence posted above was errated, and JyT has said they are optional. |

I'd be fine with that, if they actually clarified the main rules. The last one (the Almanac) failed to do so. |

If I understand it correctly, he said on TFF that they were definitely optional, but then also said, on TFF, that nothing he says on TFF is official
I feel this is exactly what was feared from a rewrite, and I quite like the new fluffier rules.
Compare it to D&D 5th edition where the devs answer tweets in an official capacity, which is then collated into FAQ. It’s been a very impressive reboot from Wizards |

Why are cards listed before GFIs? I thought Cards were part of the core rules when I read the rules |

I think it is probably better to keep the "official" pronouncements to an "official" channel.
Between them, Facebook and Google probably already know your entire life history. Don't think that not having an account will save you.

I have DZ1 & 2 but I can't say that I've really read them.
Maybe if Christer said "no more rules updates until HTML5" a few more devs might pull their fingers out.
Or maybe people are not as desperate for the new rules as they were for LRB5/CRP. |

They keep saying that it is also listed along side 4 minute turns which is optional ( although that does specifically state it is), and that it says "everything beyond this point is optional" which as you rightly point out includs handing off. Basically they cocked up, some of the devs have come out and admitted it and said this should be clearer. Others just keep saying play however your group wants... like thats an answer
I'm going to contact them by email tomorrow with a full list of things we need added to the official FAQ on bloodbowl.com |
