There is no link.
If you have Blood Bowl, enter Multiplayer, choose "Community" and then "Live" and look for the GOG Weekly matches in the list (you can sort the list).
If the match isn't there anymore, you can get the replay file here in this thread if one of the coaches uploads it to teh google drive (see first post).
You then put that replay file into your Blood Bowl replay folder (for me it's in Documents) and can watch it in Single Player mode. :-)

Not with how my boys played today, it feels like.

2-0 loss, with a fractured skull, smashed knee and a dead player to count afterwards.

Not a great day. Oh well, on to next week.
Well, I passed my bad luck from last match to Zeta it seems, a 2-0 victory for my snots.

Put the file in your replay folder, and you can watch it ingame, I don't remember the exact keys but you can speed it up too to skip the boring parts, since this version of BB for some reson keeps the time between actions too.

I hope they make a decent replay feature in the second one.

You can fast forward using + and slow it down again using -.
can I drop the Blood Bowl theme here?

Replay is uploaded.

Dead admins, do you put tugether the Playoffs manually vor dies BB calculate em ?

If its manually, id Mike to announce i wouldnt take part inthe playoffs . seemsquite unfair with this Team.
Ill play the season to the regular End, but no matter what place id Mike to give my Playoff Palace to the next one.

Playoffs are the top 4 teams in each division playing against each other in a Highest VS Lowest available format (IE, 1st in one division plays 4th in the other division). Blood bowl assigns games in the playoffs initially, but each season the admins set it up this way for more variety of coaches playing each other and for the sake of consistency.

As for your request, though I am not one of the lead admins and have no end say in the matter, I am a mod and more importantly, I'm a person that loves competition. Speaking as a player, I don't understand this move. I don't understand why you would want to just throw away your season because of a lack of fairness, especially in blood bowl.

This is a game that is naturally unfair. There IS NO FAIR in blood bowl. And as someone that is hopeful to make the playoffs, playing against a team such as yours would be a ton of fun. To have you leave the playoffs because of reasons of "fairness" would leave the rest of the season seem... Empty I guess. I (and possibly others) would feel cheated out of a chance for a spectacular game because you felt you were overpowered. In any other avenue of sports, this is seen as an advantage.

And don't forget, there is still the rest of the season to go. One lucky dice roll and boom, there goes your star player.

I remember a certain Dark Elf team with an AG6 player that felt super overpowered, but that just made the game all more fun if you could actually triumph over such a team.

In short. Please don't leave the playoffs because you feel your team is overpowered. That's kinda the point. If you don't like having a team that has the qualifications yours does, play something completely different in the next season. Get out of your comfort zone of the Orcs, play something hyper dodgy or covered in mutations. That's the beauty of this game. The vast array of teams make the possibilities endless. (IE, your half elf, half orc team).

I'm one of the admins and hope we're all alive! :-D

I can understand how you feel, and I know that we cannot force you to play in the play-offs but I'd also says that we just wait and see at this point. We haven't even played half of the season yet, and knowing Nuffle things can change rapidly, even for your team.

and don't forget you played against a heavily damaged team, i only started with 5 regulars (of which was a newly acquired catcher spp0, a linesman "fluxbastia" who plays 1 game gets injured for a game plays 1 game gets injured for a game...he played 'whole' last season and is still on 0 spp. ;)
You just managed to get a good team together would be shame to deny them the playoffs, furthermore you deserve to play playoffs on your attitude alone.

Back to the game, maybe some seasoned players can shed a light cause we had some weird stuff going on :
first half I put my thrower (one of the 3 lvl'd players left on the team) on his usual place in the back ready to catch the ball, game starts and there's a merc on his place and he's nowhere to be seen? We played whole first half without him, naturally he was pissed at the start of the 2nd and refused to catch or pick up the ball ;)
second half due to injuries we're down to 9 men and my thrower is there now but the merc tree is nowhere to be seen, I can't place him on the field. Game starts and the tree shows up way in the back making him kinda useless for the blitzevent we rolled. ;)
What happened?? The only thing I can imagine is the game added merc linesman up to 11, then I bought a merctree with incentives...maybe that caused the game to loose it's dice somewhat?

Which teams fall under "Tier 1" depends a bit on how long you plan to develop them and how well you can play them.
Next season is Reset Season which is good to start a fast team like Wood Elves and Skaven.
Orcs and Humans are very versatile and bring a bit more "punch" to the field.
If you're willing to develop a team for a longer time and accept that the first games will be very hard (and that you'll most likely loose them) Chaos, Lizardmen and Dark Elves are wonderful, but they all require some coaching skills to play them effectively.
I won't mention Dwarves because you already tried them and I hate Dwarves.
You know, doesn't require advanced coaching to be good. Maybe Amazons or Norse falls under tier 1?

Orcs are supposedly beginner friendly from what I have heard.
