Black Box Division
I've been back and active again since the end of March 09. It's been awhile since I wrote my previous Blog saying I ran off to Warhammer Online last year. Meanwhile, I've been playing LRB 5.5 tabletop with a group of friends from work. Problem is they don't play as many games as I would like and the competition is limited. So that brings me right back around to Fumbbl. I'm a stats person so I love all the stats that the website keeps track of also. It's been a six month break but I'm addicted again.

I came back and discovered the Black Box Division and now I'm hooked. The thing that draws me to this Division is the lack of cherrypicking. You play whoever is thrown in front of you similiar to a Tournament. In Ranked, although I try my best not to pick a favorable match it's just human nature and even unconsciously you tend to do it. Ranked is still cool for a change up but the Black Box was made for me. It's a good test to see if my CR is somewhat justified or am I just a Ranked Division cherrypicker. So far I'm relieved to see that it's the former more than the latter.

Another Blackbox brutha!

Just remember, some of us like the box, and some of the coaches prefer Ranked. To compare the 2 (already been done to death) is a bit daft I think. Just enjoy the challenge of keeping skaven/wood elves alive in the box!

i agree, BlackBox is the most exciting division and i don't think it's all that hard to keep low-av-teams "alive" in the box (as Calcium suggests) - in fact it's the first division i'm playing some more squishy teams and i'm enjoying it, so far :-)

i hope, there's more people discovering the Box!
