If you try to send order with this "tactic" then you'll get a explanation.
Just try... (nothing bad happens)

Sounds like the BB today stands for "Blood Bowl", not BuzzerBeater.

(http://www.tbbf.org/houserules.asp) (check the Handicap table... "Bribe the Ref" used to be part of the official rules, IIRC... now lives on in some house rules)

Interesting (maybe) aside... I used to play a lot of Blood Bowl on fumbbl.com, where someone mentioned Hattrick once upon a time. So I started playing HT, and my Blood Bowl interest waned. Then I learned about BuzzerBeater through HT, came here, and my HT interest went from wretched to non-existent... so if it wasn't for Blood Bowl, I wouldn't be here.

and im thinking there is no counter acting this . . .

so why not make another option namely " sue the ref"

April 1st was yesterday but today this option still exists...

I guess it still appears because it is early in the morning in the states and as soon as the BBs are operational they will remove it. Otherwise I hope a explanation note will be given.

Anyway, they are not real options. When you choose them and send the orders, there is a message telling that it is just a joke. So in fact you can´t set your orders to this.

I really don't want these options to stay in the game. It would make a joke from the games, and people that actually try to set their teams properly can get biased results. The one day might be fun, but on the long run i'm opposing these features

this is hilarious! so many people seem to have a lack of a sense of humor. "there must be an explanation if this continues!" or "this is bad for the game." it's not that big of a deal and it was pretty funny.

It was funny for April 1st, yes, but for the future of the game is not.

Don't be so quick to judge people...

There are teams out there that try to set up the team spirit in a way that can give them success for the season and try to promote. Adding a feature that is not documented and that can profoundly affect the result of the games is not something you should laugh at, not with the air of superiority you try to show.
