Nuffle: The anti-karma?
As a still relatively new player i think over my games that i have played. Wins, losses, draws, and it has occurred to me that the nicer i play the more heavily i seem to be beaten. Sometimes i am beaten in terms of score, other times more literally but the more i foul, show off and purposely do things i normally wouldn't in a game the better off i find myself.

Nuffle, as the god of BBowl, controls our luck on all dice rolls and yet i find myself cursing him more and more often recently as the rolls go against me. Double skulls rerolled into more double skulls, balls dropped by high ag players and i wonder what it is i have done to upset him. Then it occurred to me, there has to be an opposite to karma.

We all know that every reaction has an equal and opposite reaction and so something must act oppositely to karma with an equal power. I proclaim that this must be nuffle for the spirit of BBowl is not just to win the game but to maim, smash and kill your opponents aswell, all things that karma would punish you heavily for.

So i say, go forth you BBowlers and be the worst players you can be for then you shall rule the world of BBowl as prophets of the way of nuffle.

Of course. Nuffle LOVES sacrifice. The more you sacrifice to him, the less he demands OF you.

Another note on Nuffle and his ways is: he HATE complainers. Those who moan over dice often (if not always) continue with awful dice until the repent of their ways :)

Hehehe, it may seem that way but there are a few Coaches that play clean and still win a healthy amount.

Nuffle favors aggressive play. If you don't foul and your opponent does, you will fall behind on players and lose. If you dance around and don't hit people, you will fall behind on players and lose. I do not believe, as some do, that he requires you to foul when it will not help you score, but woe betide the team that cheapens his game by neglecting to foul when it would benefit the scoreboard.

There is a certain faction of believers that believe that Nuffle values the CAS more than the TD. This is not true. Nuffle loves watching his Elves die as much as he loves seeing them score and then die. It is all part of the game, and we all, elf and khemri alike (but not halflings, nobody loves halflines), are blessed in his name.
