Help with fumbbl

Post by miguel77 »

Every time I try to start a game it states that my oppenent is using an unathenticated roster so the game cannot be played.

Any one any idea what this is all about

Check your game options and deselect the FUMBBL authenticated option. It's not in use yet.

I'm having trouble with fumbbl as well. I have a team ready, but I have no idea how to get in contact with other coaches. I've never worked with IRC and haven't got a clue about the settings/channels I need. Can someone help me out?

If you've got mIRC installed then this link ought to work [url]irc://irc.afternet.org/FUMBBL[/url]

right, so mIRC is a special program or something. (I really do not know ANYTHING about this stuff).

I've installed HydraIRC but now I'm stuck selecting the server. I can't find irc.afternet.org anywhere

Okay I've downloaded HydraIRC and this is what you need to do.

Goto new server and add [url]IRC://irc.afternet.org:6667[/url] to one of the existing "networks" that it has (clicking on that link might work too)

Then when you've connected type

/join #FUMBBL into the main window. That should get you going.
