Psyringe: Bad luck indeed. Btw, do you know how these "chance" values like the -10.53 are calculated, and what they signify exactly? I checked some matches myself, and it's obvious that negative values mean "bad luck" and positive ones "good luck", but I'd like to understand them better.
Two days ago I did a statistical analysis of Rod's luck (which was basically lost in the reboot discussion). From there:

Note: Values are given from theoretical values -100 (every roll you take is a 2+ and none of them works) to +100 (every roll is a 6+ and all of them work). Realistically (since you will mostly have 3+ rolls) you get values from 0 (Normal) over +/-5 (Slight advantage) to +/- 10 (Rather lucky) and +/- 15 (Blessed by Nuffle).

Ahh, thanks! I actually remember reading that post, but I had forgotten that the answer to my question was right there. *blush*

So my 0/7 Leaps (chance: -80) in my match against Aningan were ... somewhat underwhelming. ;)

Btw, I hereby nominate Amy Pond's performance in this match for "worst performance of the season". She failed all 6 of her leaps, failed 5 of 7 dodges, failed 1 of 2 GFIs, succeeded with only 1 of 3 blocks, and caused 7 turnovers all on her own. She _does_ have Ag4, Dodge, and Block. Anyone able to top this? ;)
a real boring game this time

get hurt kickers won against the cows with a 1-0 score.

many failed dodges, many pushed blocks, many blitz.

turn 12/13/14/15 had me and werecrow switching the controller of the ball. I blitz, he blitz, i blitz.

So many rolls of 1 for me

here's the replay

This will be "the" match of the next week. The leader of division 1 against the single undefeated team in the competition!

I'll send my woodies to spectate if I can make it, they ought to be able to learn something.

This "poi..sponsoring" sounds like an interesting and clever idea. But it might be tricky to get the dosage right. But I have THE perfect offer for you - I will test this poi..sponsoring on my next opponent. I promise that you will be able to observe the effects very closely, so that you will gather a lot of valuable information. Deal? ;)

I don't understand how you could be complaining about the luck in your game. It rather was the baffeling frailety of my Chaos(!!!) team that put me on a considerably disadvantage early on (as in suffering 2 casualties in the second turn) and of course rolling 1s on my Double Headed ball stealer dodges.

You on the other hand managed to pass most dodges and usually get yourself in a position which made it impossible for me to get anywhere with the ball. You played it well and slightly risky but it worked out in the end.

I'm sorry but me and this team is kind of done for this season. Im still having to face some strong opponents and I have no idea how my team is going to be able to get anything done. No one of my players has earned any SPPs these past few matches, usually because they are crushed into ity bitsy little pieces.

And they are CHAOS for Khornes sake!

Sorry for the rant but this season just isn't really fun to me anymore. I am aware that I should have skilled my team differently but I am still simply amazed that one of the sturdiest teams in the game is getting picked apart like this and I am unable to accomplish anything. I'm not even blaming the dicegods here, it simply doesnt go into my mind what is happening...

The Armored Seagulls and the Hamburg Hammerfists are about to begin.
I am starting to feel, that we have too lucky players coaches this season, quite few people have complained about bad luck and matches despite winning the particular matches.

Seriously people - never mind the match result, healthy team is in itself is a sort of win already.

Try to appreciate the ups and downs, both are part of BB - and please DO enjoy your team to its fullest while you still have chance. I mean its just matter of time till Nuffle's ire hits with its true power ;)

Seagulls won 2:1 in a slightly crazy match. Well played @ Zeta
