-Here we present some frequently asked questions about the game.  If your question isn't answered here then do of course feel free to get in touch with the [[mailto:gm@umba.chaosdeathfish.com|GM Team]]+Herewe present some frequently asked questions about the game.  If your question isn't answered here then do of course feel free to get in touch with the [[gm@umba.chaosdeathfish.com|GM Team]]

 ===== Can I fight in a match against another PC? ===== ===== Can I fight in a match against another PC? =====
-Not directly against their character (this is against the [[[fights#The Rules|rules]] of the Arena).  You can, of course, fight your Monster against their Monster or fight their Monster as a [[Gladiators|Gladiator]].+It is currently ​against the [[fights#rules|rules of the Arena]] for two humans to fight each other in a Battle.  You can, of course, fight your Monster against their Monster or fight their Monster as a [[Gladiators|Gladiator]].  This is purely an IC rule. 
 + 
 +===== Which Season is this again? ===== 
 + 
 +Season XXXVI (36).  The first Battle of Season XXXVI will occur during the first downtime of the game (after session 1). 
 + 
 +===== How do you pronounce this? ===== 
 + 
 +Pronunciations have been given for several IC terms on the [[Glossary]] page.  If you are confused about any pronunciation that has not been included on that page, please [[gm@umba.chaosdeathfish.com|let us know]]. 
 + 
 +===== What happens if I lose my Monster? ===== 
 + 
 +The loss of a Monster during the game is entirely possible. ​ Since League Rank is attributed to the Trainer rather than the Monster, this does not necessarily mean that you would be unable to participate in the Arena after losing a Monster. 
 + 
 +===== Do I need a "​real"​ name and a "​stage"​ name? ===== 
 + 
 +"​Real"​ sounding names like "​Jessica Smith" or "Larry McDonald"​ don't make sense in the world of UMBA.  Similarly the concept of stage names is rarely, if ever, used: you wear who you are on your sleeve with pride. 
 + 
 +See [[Character Creation#​Name|Name]] for more details on in-universe names. 
 + 
 +===== Can my Monster be a swarm / hive mind? ===== 
 + 
 +Yes!  The stats you submit for your Monster will be the stats of the combined entity, not of individual parts. 
 + 
 +===== Can my Monster fly? ===== 
 + 
 +Not at the start of the game: no flying Monsters have been caught nor are they part of the League. ​ Rumour of flying Monsters may have been heard, however.
