Q) What sort of reference system should we use?
A) This has worked successfully for us.  The BB field is 26x15.  Thus,
   it makes sense to reference the field by a letter and a number, such
   as A1 or M12.  We ordered our field as follows:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|     0  1  2  3  4  5  6         BLOOD BOWL         0  1  2  3  4  5  6     |
|                                                                            |
|A  B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M  N  O  P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z|

Q) My opponent is playing:
      a) Skaven and I don't trust him with the dice.
      b) Undead and I doubt he can add the dice together.
      c) Orcs and I bet he'll just eat the dice.
   What can we do?
A) Get a third person help out.  He can roll the dice for both of you,
   plus he can be an immeasurable help by helping to keep your player
   positions straight.  In the event that a third person can't be
   found, you can use NuffleBot.  Currently, NuffleBot can only be
   used on the IRC server tyco.cs.utk.edu, but later he may move onto
   the Undernet.  You can get help on using Nufflebot by connecting to
   tyco.cs.utk.edu with an IRC client, and typing "/msg nufflebot
   help."

Q) I placed my Wardancer with the ball wide open, but my opponent
   claims to have all 8 tackle zones around him occupied.  Is he
   cheating?
A) Maybe, but probably not.  This is where having a third person
   really comes in handy (see above).  Expect this sort of confusion
   going into the game.  If you don't think you can resolve such
   issues in a friendly, sporting manner, maybe you should stick to
   face-to-face Blood Bowl.  A large scroll back buffer or a log of
   the session may help you resolve such issues.

Q) Someone is playing a game I'd like to see.  They said they are
   playing at 10:00 GMT.  I don't understand!!
A) They are playing at 10:00 Greenwich Mean Time.  This is our
   planet's standard time reference, and a natural reference for us to
   use in our international setting.  US Eastern Standard time is 5
   hours behind GMT; thus a game at 10 GMT would be at 5:00 Eastern, 4
   Central, etc...  Tokyo is 9 hours ahead of GMT, and Sydney is 10
   hours ahead.  In Summer, if you are using Daylight Savings Time,
   SUBTRACT ONE HOUR from this difference (e.g., US Eastern Daylight
   Time would be 4 hours behind GMT, etc...)
