These rules are set to ensure that everyone, staff and players alike, enjoy their time playing in this league. Failing to adhere to the rules will result in penalties.
It is the responsibility of the players to know and abide by these rules.
Failure to follow any or all of these rules will result in penalties including, but not limited to, email warnings, boxing, disqualifications from tourneys, or being booted from league.
Your League name must match your Yahoo name. If it doesn't, you will be required to change one of the other until they match. You will NOT be allowed to play in any tourneys until it is done.
All users must have one and only one ID in the league at any time. Creation of multiple IDs will result in all, but the original getting booted from the league. Constantly creating multiple IDs will result in penalties.
Absolutely no cheating of any kind. This includes, but is not limited to: Using a cheat program, kibitzing, table talk, asking for assistance in any medium whatsoever. Anybody caught cheating with proof will automatically be disqualified from tourney and will be put in box on first offense. (Cheaters Tourneys are excluded from this.)
No player will harass a TD while they are hosting for whatever reason.
No player will spam a TD's tourney unless given explicit permission by that TD. This will avoid members getting bombarded with spam.
No player will harass another player in lobby, message forum, or game table.
No private tables allowed, no exceptions.
TD has final say in all matters pertaining to his/her tourney.
If there any trouble makers in lobby not associated with league you are to put them on IGGY (click their name and check the "Ignore" box) or do not respond to them. Do not play into their games.
No scrolling in the lobby. (i.e. pressing spacebar and enter continuously to fill the lobby chat with blank space.)
Any arguments between members are to be held in Instant Messager and/or email. The lobby and message forum are not the place for arguments.
No player bashing allowed. If you have a problem with another member, then contact them via email or contact the admin team.
We do allow 13 year olds in the league so please act accordingly. We do tolerate minor swearing in lobby and forums (damn, hell, etc.) but absolutely no F-bombs or variations thereof. (If you aren't sure if you should say it, then don't say it.)
No rude behavior or comments in lobby or forum.
Any problems that cannot be handled by acting TD is to be sent to the ADMINS. We do require screenshots of all inappropriate behaviors. We will not just take your word for it. (This includes staff as well.) If you need to know how to take a screenshot, just ask an ADMIN. (Everyone can do it.)
Fill in the Blank: We have attempted to put all our rules here. However, just because you do not see it explicitly stated does not mean it's not allowed. Please use common sense.
Our biggest rule is however is to have fun!
