Sometimes Nuffle just wants you to win.
http://www.fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=match&id=3152902

I am no great player by anybody's measure. But in this game, Nuffle must have placed a bet on my team, because there is no other reason for my win.

About half way through the first half, I realize I am not going to be able to stop the score. The opponent is taking his sweet time on his turns, and I am bored, so I start to watch an episode of Rescue Me and I just click turn and leave everybody on the ground. The one time I try to do something, I roll skulls. Anyway, he fouls to his heart's content and I happily wait for the halftime show while watching some T.V.

I hear the whistle for turn 8, and there is no score on the board. I haven't seen the replay, but he clearly tried to block, foul, or pass and failed. Half time is 0-0.

Second half. I get rid of a couple of werewolves and put some half baked pressure on the ball carrier. He pushes toward the endzone and I fail some GFI or Some dodges and he is sitting pretty to score and get his Werewolves back on the pitch. But NO!! The ghoul wants to pass the ball to the wight and get some spp. You guessed it, he fails.

Well what happens next is anyone's guess. For some reason I click 'end move' on my guy instead of trying to pass the ball. So I am a sitting duck. No worries, he will roll skulls on a non essential block and give me another chance.

Second chance pass is not accurate. No worries, he will fail a GFI trying to get it.

Can't pick up the ball with AG4, no worries, he will double skull on a non essential block.

Finally pick up and hand off on turn 8 and get 2 GFI to score the win.

Spend 16 turns getting beat like a government mule, and get a gift ball from some poor stalling tactics. Thanks Nuffle, don't spend the winnings of your bet in one place.

I agree with you, but it's not nuffle's fault, but program makers.

If my dice are incredible high then i am not very happy too, believe me. I like tough fight, Not like one coach only 1,2,3 and second 4,5,6, but i understand your point very good.
I don't really think, that i am bad player, but my dice are crappy totally.
I don't really want dice with 4,5,6 only, because it's too easy playing, but very often my opponents have really surrealistic "luck".
Imo that program is just terrible one sided.

However there are coaches whose just love this advantage, they have incredible dice almost each match, and it's not the problem for them, they are just laughing at you.

The best idea is play on the board table bbowl, unfortunately i have not much opponents in Poland and league is dead.

not to forget that what you done was against site rules i believe by not even bothering with the game by the sounds of it.

Nope, just didn't want to take more cas in the final few turns of the first half.

Standing everyone up is chance for many blocks.

Leaving everyone down is chance for one foul per turn.

I had no prayer of stopping the score, so I played to win by keeping guys fresh for teh second half. The fact that I watched some TV while doing it isn't agaisnt the rules.
