Elvish Blues Brothers proudly present their lates hit single:
VINTERLEGIONEN BLUES
When you have these blues
And there's some norse, oh boy, you're 'bout to lose
But still you gotta try to keep away from the noose.
I say, all game every way, rain kept the sun down
And my high'n'mighty elfs kept on getting blocked down
And my high'n'mighty elfs kept on getting knocked down
And my blues blooded elfs kept on going out and down.
I rolled 'n fumbled, I skulled whole game long
Yes I rolled 'n fumbled, I made ones whole game long
I got up this morning, feeling that something was going wrong
Man my catcher baby, great god he's mighty and tall
You know my catcher baby, great god my baby he's tall
But they fouled my baby and he weren't no more tall
And they fouled my baby and he went hurt from the fall
But I'm still crazy 'bout him, that hard hit catcher of mine
Got so disgusted
When I tried and passed
Little by little
My passes dropped so I could see
Bit by bit
My passes kept slipping away from me
Sweet little game, got burned down, ain't that bad
Yeah you know I had a sweet little plan, it got burned down, ain't that bad
Whoa you know you can't spend what you ain't got,
You can't lose some little win you ain't never had.
Had ball in the hand, I got busted, ain't that just bad
Had pass in the mind, I got busted, ain't that just bad
You can't spend what you ain't got,
Uou can't lose some little win you ain't never had
Ain't that the truth boys.

Coaches comments: Gnaarkills Vinterlegionen beat my EBB's 2-0 with sime mighty fine gaming. The game started with a rain and it kept on raining all of the game. I almost managed to stop the norse from scoring in the first half and managed even to take the ball away while being 2 helfs down but then a Norse Werewolf made a spectacular interception and after some struggle the Werewolf even managed to score at the end of first half. I started the second half 3 helfs down as Gnaarkill had managed to foul out my catcher and KO two helfs. Crowd tried to help me by badly hurting one of the linenorse with a rock at kick-off but then my helfs decided to picking up a wet ball and actually throwing it wasn't worthy enough for them. There was also some poor helf dodging and when couple helfs got KO'd in rapid succession, the game was practically over. Every helf who made it to Vinterlegionen half of the field went down and soon I was swarmed by the norse. Ball came out finally and Gnaarkill had no trouble scoring although I managed to take the ball away once. But looking at the bright side, I didn't go home totally empty-handed as I finished the game with 1 SPP from passing! Great game from Gnaarkill. Thanks again for not killing any of my helfs :)
I keep on digging!
Nice work, brothers!
Im honored to have a musical masterpiece named after my mighty norse team :)
Again J-reedy, very entertaining reading!
Thank you for a good match!
3-0 for Barmution again... apparently I didn't get a break this time either, with bad rolls (except for that pass from a BOB just to "farm" an spp, lol) and breaking the same armor as my av8 opponent (30% to 29%... with 2 mighty blowers). 3 to 3 in KO's and an injured witch elf (which came very early in the game) completed the physical stats for the game.
First half should have ended 0-0 on my defence but I took some unnecessary risks and DSS scored twice with some flawless d6 rolling and no luck from my blocks. Second half was more of the same, with me having to risk a somewhat crazy play if I wanted to try and miraculously equalize. It that went all right until my blitzer had to dodge on 3+ with a reroll... and failed. He scored again easily and my final drive ended with a failed catch from a blitzer in scoring position (with 2gfi).
In all, a very frustrating game for me and I presume a quite boring one for him (though it's less boring when you're the one facerolling the other team, I think any BB player's been in both sides of the fence and would agree with that :D). I'm looking forward to playing another match, hopefully with more balance in the dice department (even if I lose again, which would probably happen... damn elves :D).
Yeah, the DSS continue their lucky streak against the bashy teams, presumably only to lose a couple of positionals against High Elves or Norse next week. Looking at the stats (number of individual dice rolls) in BBManager shows that Luiggi was quite a bit lower than statistical expectation on 2D6 while I was higher, our D6 was pretty even but as we all know Elves tend to do well with average D6. Looking at the block dice we can see that Luiggi actually was VERY lucky, but as he demonstrated repeatedly, that doesn't help much when your 2D6 don't want to cooperate.
Thanks for the game, L. You demonstrated your level of play at the sidelines in the first half and I'll have to say that I'm impressed with your positioning, so you have my commiserations for those pesky D6 of yours (although no-one want to be on the recieving end when it goes the other way). I predict you'll have a good time smashing Norse, as they can't dodge away so easily and basically fight naked. :P

Here's the brand new single from those handsome sons of lords and ladies, the blues-blooded brothers:
BLUES OF THE SMOOCHING DRUCHII
Hey folks here's the story 'bout Druchi Schmoochers
Those pretty low-down dwelling darkie koochers
Them was the roughest toughest gang
And them played us with a style'n'bang
And it kept on raining
And it rained on raining
And the rain kept on raining
All day long it was raining and whailing
We messed around with blokes so darky
'Cause we love this the game so corky
We the ones so high and mighty
'till they came and took us down
Oh' we were so high and mighty
'till they came and took us down
Dodgy dodgy dodgy go
Whammaloo!
Keep on going going going
Whammaloo!
Blocky blitzy play try to make
Whammaloo!
No point trying that 'gainst the Druchii Smuchii Schmoo
Druuchii druuchii druuchi schmoo
Whamma banga blitz aloo
Druuchii druuchii druuchi schmoo
So they gave us the ball
But then they took it way
So they took us to a brawl
And then they made us pay
Druuchii druuchii druuchi schmoo
Whamma banga blitz aloo
Druuchii druuchii druuchi schmoo
Poor helfie, poor high'n mighty elfie
You keep on getting knocked down
On the field so wet and brown
Poor helfie, poor hign'n mighty elfie
You keep on getting knocked out
On the field so lacking of drought
They gave us a trashin' and flexed their forces
Each play they gave us a dozen courses
Had a million dollars worth of plans and rimes
They got around and bent them a million times
Druuchii druuchii druuchi schmoo
Whamma banga blitz aloo
Druuchii druuchii druuchi schmoo
----------------------
Coachy comments: Not much to tell about the 4-0 trashing my Elvish Blues Bloods just got from the Barmution's Druchii Smuchii Schmoos. Just a too tough an opponent for my rookie team and as I got no help from the dice, the game was decided just as soon as the first half ended. I went permanently undermanned on the 4th turn or so and Barm's two guards kept my blocking to minimum and gave him excellent opportunities to blitz the ball away. And it rained all of the game, just like in my last game.
SUFFERING FROM DROUGHT?
YOUR PROBLEMS ARE SOLVED - LOOK NO FURTHER!
If your fields are suffering from draught and the last time you had rain was many fortnights ago, do not be worried. There is a simple solution to your problems! Just book the Elvish Blues Bloods to perform on your field and you're sure to get rain as long as the lads of the EBB stay on your field. And it's none of that sissy trinkling rain that you sometimes get, we're talking about good sized drops of water that soak into the field and make everything slippery and dippery. So call now and book Elvish Blues Bloods if you want rain! EBB - a 100 % success rate with rain!*
"Our field was all cracked up and dry from the harsh winter and the long-lasting spring drought. But then the EBB came to play and it was like the flood-gates of heaven opened! The rain started as soon as they stepped on the field and it kept on raining for all of the game! Never before have we had such an even and ample rain this far north. I recommend them highly!", Graz Svenly, groundskeeper of the Vinterlegionen stadium.**
*Historical performance. No guarantees about future performance.
**Embellished quote. Actual quote was "Them grounds werr all crackedy and dry as me wife's nooshy from tha' winter and from that buggering sun tha' kept on shining all sping like. But tha' was 'fore those bastard so called high 'n mity elf folks came to play. Then 'twas like Tor had downed a keg of tha finest ale n' then pissed it straight on to ground. The pissing started right as the b'stards took tha field and Tor must've kept on drinkn' as he pissed 'cause it lasted all of tha game! Yaar, ain't so common those kinds of long and steady rains this far up tha butt of tha north. Can't say I like those arrogant b'stards but I guess them keeps on getting Tor pissing so they're good for me job!
Nothing much to add here, really. When you were the one getting the snake eyes in addition to being undermanned, there wasn't much you could do with such an unexperienced team. I still wonder if you were a little too defensive in your choice of inducements, though. Eldril and a Wizard would probably have served you at least as well as your extra re-rolls and apos, but I totally understand that you want to protect a fledgling High Elf team like that. Happy to see that your Blitzer got MVP at least.
All the best and better luck to you from here on!
-Barm
PS. You should ask Kvasilad to put some notes to those lyrics, he's quite competent with the axe!
My orcs are still dizzy and have been very disappointing this season. They could not score against a rookie norse team, neither could they deal significant damage, thus being outnumbered most of the game. There were two key plays that could have earned a touchdown for each team, but both failed at the 3+ roll and the game finished with a scoreless draw.
Well played, Gnaarl, and good luck with your next game for the title.

Yes, it was a very tight match though and my manly vikings stood up for a good brawl, managing to knock out some big orcs. And as Luiggi said, both teams had a chance to score a TD but were unsuccessfull. Both team tried to hold the game tight and the leaving very few openings. Unsurprisingly the game ended with a goalless draw.
Thank you for a good match Luiggi! I hope your orcs will sniff some strong warpstone scent or something to be more bloodthirsty and get some better smiths to smith their armour to prove themselves they really are orcs and not goblins ;)
I will try to tell my vikings not to think that they are elves and stop jumping around hurting themselves like little girls in high heels with little pink purses in their hands ;)

I just played a very... strange... game against Kvasilad. First he couldn't deploy his chaos warrior who ended up near his end zone instead having to run for a few turns to get to the action. That didn't help me much however as I rolled three straight ones during my next two turns meaning that he could run the ball in easily and my blodge blitzer tripped and fell injuring himself. Luckily elves have good money to hire the best apos and he could come back to the game almost right away. Having used the apo turn two I thought I was going to get murdered, that was not the case though as you'll see...
My next drive I used my last reroll right away, I think it was on a double skull on my first block of the turn. The game then went into the mode of me running around and hitting a few guys and trying to dodge away (sometimes the elves even managed to dodge without falling!). Without a reroll I had a hard time finding a good enough opening to go for it, but my turn six I had a good shot at it and I was getting a bit stressed with the turns ticking in and didn't think I'd get a better shot. My thrower was tagged by a beast however and needed to make a dodge to throw the ball, which he obviously failed and stunned himself with the ball falling back right at the feet of the beastman. He then picked it up and run away towards my goal. I could just get a one die blitz on him and failed to get him down. He could then easily blitz and push me away and run the ball in for a 2-0 goal.
Next half I got a perfect defence and was getting a bit pesimistic... He didn't put his guys too bad however (I think I had a better scoring chanse after the PD) and I managed to run a few guys through (had to use a reroll again though thanks to a double skull) and one catchers was only tagged by a single chaos warrior who i could blitz away and throw -> hand off to the catcher for the TD.
So I was right back to defending, I needed to somehow steal the ball and score against a chaos team that didn't need to score (and hadn't used a single reroll the whole game). I got a good shallow kick but he got high kick so could place his beast right under it. He caged up, but if I blitzed a beast down (had to knock it down) I could tag the ballcarrier with several players that were not in any other chaos players tackle zones so he'd need to at least dodge with the ballcarrier which gave me a chance. I failed though and he could cage up a bit back. Next turn my first block was double skulls again and I got a TO almost right away letting him run the ball down quite safely. I didn't manage to even threaten the ballcarrier, but instead started beating the chaos team up. I was very successful for the first time in the game and injured 3 players (for a total of 4-0 in cas to me with a loner that got injured earlier, if you don't count my guy who tripped). He scored though setting the game to a 3-1 win for him. Somehow I thought the opposite would have been more likely ;)
Anyway thanks for the game and good luck in the play offs against those annoying dark elves.

If I understand the seeding system correctly, Staffan would have to lose by 2 or more TDs for you not to get matched up against me if I win or draw against Gnaarkill on tuesday... Doesn't mean kvasilad won't encounter the DSS in play-offs, though, it just means that my Druchii get another racial grudge match earlier than expected ;D
Hm, I thought it was just a 4 player, but you're right, it seems everyone's in it. That makes me much more happy about my situation, it will be awesome playing against you :)
Hatematches ftw...
To be honest, I'll just be relieved if I can get away without having to face those brutal dorfs of Staffans ::)
Thanks for the game, Arrow!
It was a strange match indeed. I'll admit to being more than a little lucky, but I'm also quite happy with my tactical choices throughout most of the match (despite a few blunders, of course :) ). I usually have a alot of trouble facing agile teams, but no doubt your dodge criticals helped me out a bunch.
You're probably right in that I used my PD poorly, overestimating how heavily invested you were in your right flank, leaving too little to defend the left.
It seems like Nuffle saw fit to offset your poor luck in dodging early with your incredibly evil streak of armour/injury rolls in the last couple of turns of the game, turning the taste of victory slightly more bitter in my mouth. It'll be a challenging cup match for me to be sure, with only 8 out of 11 in my roster able-bodied and ready to play.
Typical bashy elves, always beating on poor, defenceless chaos teams. ;)
PS: Has Cyanide given any word on when/if they'll fix the mystical disappearing players during setup? It's happened to me an alarming number of times now.
Thanks for a VERY entertaining game yesterday, Gnaarkill!
Lots of great positioning, crowd surfing and a LOT of back and forth. I think that ag4 across the board and some key dodges were really what secured the match for DSS at critical moments. Thank Nuffle for being Dark Elf! Good luck in your future matches and sorry for my apo not letting you kill that Lineman ;D
Quote from: Luiggi on March 22, 2012, 08:22:57 PM
Well, my orcs decided to end their casualty drought with a very bloody match. A fan throwing a rock at start and knocking out an elf lineman was a bad omen, but nothing compared with what was coming next... nasty stuff.
Elves hired an extra apothecary that had to jump on the pitch in the first block of the night, when a black orc struck a lineman dead. The apothecary failed and could not save him. Next turn it was a rookie catcher, who played his first game, who ventured too far into the opposition half of the pitch... he was disposed of by a blitzer and again the apothecary did not save him. After that there was not too much of a game left, very outnumbered J-Reedy managed to set a cage in my field and with the help of the wizard tried to break through, but the carrier was ultimately tracked down and stunned. Another injury left the elves outnumbered 8 to 11 for their defence on the second half.
Elves kicked to start the second half, trailing by 1. The orcs did not cage quickly enough and left some openings for some surgical strikes, but to no success for the defence, who had to overcommit in order to try to recover the ball, which caused a lot of pain (mostly knock-outs this time, though). After scoring the 2-0, Nuffle put the nail in the coffin with a Blitz kick-off for the orcs, proving that there was only one way the dices were going this time.
All in all, a very one-sided game dice-wise, I barely had to use rerolls (and the ones I used were just to change pushes to pows) and J-Reedy had a tough time trying to overcome such a huge TV difference (who wouldn't!). I hope for a more even game both in luck and TV next time!
PS: I wish I had luck spread out and averaged with this team... it looks like they go from not being able to do anything to just eat the opposition alive... I guess that's the thing with dices :D
Elvish Blues-Blooded Brothers bring you their lates wailing blues tune from deep down their hearts
GREEN DON'T MIX WITH BLUES
OR
THE MEMORIAL BLUES OF
RICKY "RABBIT" BROWN
AND
HOWLIN' WOLFER
Them green orc guys
Them black orc guys
Them didn't brake me but I'm so bent
As I now remember Ricky's sway
As I remember Wolfer's funny way
As they both lie dead
My heart fills with lead
Them green orc guys
Them black orc guys
They killed my mates away
Them gone and killed them away
A little bit of luck dont't take ya far
When you got none, you better off boozing in a bar
When green mixes with blues
You better just get ya some booze
Cause blues don't mix with a green
'n blues don't get away clean
Them didn't brake me but I'm so bent
Them dead mates of mine
With a broken skull'n spine
Them broke them and now I'm so bent
Wizard on a rent may seem great
But he dont' help you with a dead mate
Doctor on a rent may seem straight
But he don't help you with a dead mate
And if you're talkin' about a poor elf's friend
Grave will get him now as I'm so bent
Them didn't brake me but I'm so bent
Them green orc guys
Them black orc guys
Them didn't brake me but I'm so bent

Coachy comments: Two turns, two dead high elfs, two apotecharies spent. Two points of spps from two passes. Too much two-skulls. Two-zero win for Luigi's Orkitis.
Whoa, that seems like a right nasty clash there. But who is now in 2nd and who is in 3rd in Tuna division? Will the cup match-ups be determined randomly, or do we trust BBM's positioning reasons whatever they may be?
After about 15 minutes of swapping teams, swearing and trying to figure what the hell cyanide thought when they made their league client I've finally managed to get the correct teams to face off (don't ask me how... I really mean it...). For the semis the winners will face off at random though.
Match ups are Shark 1 against Tuna 4 and so on.
Cool, thanks Golden!
Excellent work, Golden!
Btw: Do we still upload the replays to the same league in BBManager?
Thanks for the match, Golden Arrow!
An exceedingly well played match by you and pretty sub-par played by me got me a loss I definatly deserved tonight. Suitably ironic that your High Elves should be the team sending DSS tumbling out of the play-offs, really ;)
Good luck in the remaining matches and make your fellow elves (oh, how it pains me to say it) proud ;)
Thanks, for the game. The undefeatable dark elves finally met their match in their nobler kin and also suffered their first three goals in the season apparently...
It was a very entertaining match where I started with the ball and managed to do a 2 turn elf TD, high elf style. Then on his offense he ran his witch elf out alone on a flank with the ball where I could only reach her with lots of dodges and GFI:s, but instead the wizard came to the rescue and lightning bolted her ass. I blitzed away the covering player and got possesion of the ball on a catcher that was lightly screened (cage is a too strong word). To get in he needed to dodge into a tackle zone with his super witch elf (and get a one die block where he had block and I didn't), but she failed and badly hurt herself in the prosess. That meant I could move the ball up and cage around it a bit past the middle line on the side. On his turn he misclicked and pressed end turn without moving any players (maybe rising one or two guys) which meant that I could easily cage the ball far into his backfield and score (I had a pretty good shot at scoring anyway, but with that miss it got sooo much easier).
Next half he scored pretty quickly (three turns I think) and on my offense leading 2-1 I was in a very good position. The crowd decided they wanted a game of it however and invaded the pitch stunning 6!!! of my players and none of his. At least my thrower was standing and I got the ball to his and placed him in the backfield. He marked my players up and pushed for the thrower, but in my turn I saw an opening in the center and managed to pass the ball up past his team and cage the ball up on the other side of his players. It required some dodging but the 1 stayed away until my last player so I was happy. He didn't manage to get to my ball carrier and he easily ran the ball in for the winning TD.
It was a really nice game and the dice behaved for me today with no freakish fails and stuff, we will certainly try to represent the elven race with good grace! (better than any druchii scum could ever have done... ;)).

So that were the weakness, the hated high-borne.
Some headsup!
Closing in on the playoff's I'll add a new season 7 sign up in the weekend.
Cheers

I have to admit that based on that one match I'm hard pressed to see how Golden could've finished last in his division except for extremely poor dice, and even more hard pressed to see how I could've gotten my Tuna-stats without a lot of luck. That premature end turn-click was just the nail in a coffin made of some pretty shoddy play from my side, and I think Golden was right in saying that it probably wouldn't have mattered in deciding the outcome.
The upside of DSS dropping out of the play-offs will be that a couple of rookie teams (with some luck) will gain some TV, allowing next season to be played without such crippling TV differences. Best of luck to y'all and please finish the play-offs quickly so I can join in again ;D

2-0 for Orkitis in the Quarter Finals, with an astonishing 2 dead dwarves and a touchdown by a black orc. Orc's hits cut through dwarven armor like a knife through butter and provided the number's advantage to dominate the field. If you add great dodge rolls by the orcs and plenty of skulls for the dwarves, you end up with a very one sided Nuffly game.
The last quarter final match is finally played, 2-1 for Disorganized Dudes vs Vinterlegionen in what was a very Nuffle-based victory.
The Norse started out with a strong drive and were through the Chaos defence to score a touchdown in turn 3, so I was preparing for a pretty bad defeat. Then, somewhere towards the end of the first half the dice only went my way, and kept on going my way for the rest of the game, especially with armour/injury rolls. Vinterlegionen were down to 6 players on the pitch in the end, so there was not much they could do.
Thanks for the game Gnaarkill, let's hope Nuffle treats you more fairly next time :)
That's one semi-final settled, Virgins 1 - 0 Dudes.
After some weird connection issue in the first attempt (I could no longer move any of my players after a synch warning), we had to restart, but the second attempt went pretty much the same as the first. Golden chose to kick, and defended very well against my first drive, despite sustaining a casulty and using apoc early on. I was within reach of the end zone with the ball before my turn 8, but a naughty elf managed to slip inside my cage and knock down my carrier.
The elves scored after four turns in their half, and my attempts to equalize were thwarted, despite what was a promising long-shot dodge run by my carrier on turn 16 (the odds against it succeeding were probably astronomical, but hey, when you only have one option left :D)
The game got a bit bloody, and Golden had 6 casulties in the end, one of which was dead, one mng.
Thanks for the game, and good luck in the finals :)
Yeah my team got pretty beat up with a lineman killed and two more players missing next game. Also got pretty much no winnings (hopw they fix that bug today) so can't buy any extra players. I guess Bantha and Luiggi are glad about that :P
The game was extremely close and the first half was made up of Kvasi caging and me trying to stall him as much as possible. I also launched a few surgical strikes at the back of his cage to slow him down and it worked pretty well meaning that Kvasi had to run his carrier forward turn seven screened only by two players. Elves are fast however and I managed to run round them and blitz his carrier down. I couldn't get the ball however and even though I got a tiny chance to score turn 8 it was never close.
Next turn my offensive set up was pretty bad and I had no guarders on my offensive flank which meant that I had to dodge my guy through even after the blitz and obviously the first guy rolled snake eyes and I thought my offense was stumped. In Kvasis turn after moving a few guys he rolled a double skull with his minotaur and failed the loner check which meant that I was back up to speed. I passed and ran the ball up close to the end zone and screened the player up as well as I could and it worked out well. I held off for one more turn before scoring the winning TD. In his drive he pushed forward but it took some time and my last turn I put my whole team between the ball and the goal and also managed to knock his ball carrier down. He did some blocks but got nowhere and tried to dodge through lots of tackle zones with his beastman but failed. I think he needed to roll 3+ (pick up), 2+ (catch on hand off), 5+, 5+, 4+, 3+ (dodges) to score. Not sure what the odds are of that (with reroll), but they can't be big.
Thanks alot for the game, it was very fun and tight and I dont blame you for mutilating my players. This game was more normal in that regard than our last :P
Congrats to Golden and commiserations to Kvasi! Golden's Elves are single-handedly responsible for removing both Norwegians from the play-offs, we will not forget this, hehe >:(
Btw, Samba Action Calculator (http://elyoukey2.phpnet.org/sac/) puts Kvasis odds for that last longshot at about 7.5%. Quite unrealistic, yeah ;D

Pah! All I need is 13 more go's at that, and I'll probably make it at some point :D
I had never really thought it was going to work, but I had no other options on the table in turn 16... however, it got tantalisingly close, I think I tripped on the second-to-last roll :)

Btw, Samba Action Calculator (http://elyoukey2.phpnet.org/sac/) puts Kvasis odds for that last longshot at about 7.5%. Quite unrealistic, yeah ;D
Pah! All I need is 13 more go's at that, and I'll probably make it at some point :D
I had never really thought it was going to work, but I had no other options on the table in turn 16... however, it got tantalisingly close, I think I tripped on the second-to-last roll :)
Seems like a good game.
Gratz Golden, your opp will be decided tomorrow evening.
Cheers!
