A Game

Everything on Furbol happens around a game — a specific football match, at a specific time, at a specific pitch. A host creates it. Players join.

Three visibility options

When setting up the game, the host picks one of three visibilities:

  • Public. Anyone on Furbol can see the game and join.
  • Private. Anyone can see the game, but only invited players can actually join.
  • Secret. Only invited players can even see the game. It’s hidden from everyone else.

The phases of a game

A game moves through four phases, in order:

  1. Upcoming — the host has just published it. Players can join.
  2. Playing — kick-off has happened.
  3. Played — the game is over. Time to vote on your teammates.
  4. Cancelled — for one reason or another, the game didn’t happen.

While a game is upcoming

During the upcoming phase, three things are worth tracking:

  • Quorum — the minimum number of players the game needs to go ahead. The moment the game reaches it, the game has hit quorum — it’s on.
  • Sold out — the game has reached its maximum. No more spots.
  • The last hour — the final hour before kick-off. This is where the game either finalises or falls apart.

If the game hasn’t hit quorum by the time the last hour starts, Furbol cancels it — unless the host chose “game on, no matter what”, in which case the game happens regardless of numbers.
