League Division

Summary

The League division is populated by group/tourney members. The main purpose of League is to be the home for user-created tournaments, but one-off matches may also be played (although once a team signs up for a particular league, the tournament organisers may no longer permit this).

There are also additional, non-official teams available (such as the Allied teams - some of which still exist, but can no longer be created - and several Stunty Leeg rosters), but you are under no obligation to play with or against such teams if you prefer a LRB-compliant environment.

The League division used to share its function with the Unranked division.

Rules

The +/- 40 STR Rule

The +/- STR rule is not enforced in League. You are still expected to play reasonably competitive matches in open play, however. The reason it is not enforced is because of the way some tourneys are set up, rather than an actual endorsement of unfair games.

Finding a game

Head for the Groups (http://fumbbl.com/FUMBBL.php?page=group) page and you will find many tournaments looking to recruit League teams. Each of these user-run tournaments has its own rules and system for arranging games - read individual group pages to find out the details in each case.

If you are just looking for a one-off game with a League team, are in the #fumbblleague IRC channel and want to play a game with one of your League teams, make sure your chat name is the same as your FUMBBL coach name ( type /nick yourcoachname ) and then type bb lfg to display your teams in the channel. You can also open the Gamefinder page, and list your teams there - seek out likely-looking opponents on IRC.

Ranking

For Ranking purposes, K=0 in this division. In other words, it is not ranked at all.
