Sign-Ups and Disqualification Squads can sign up for JWL throughout its duration if there is space. A squad can be disqualified from the league if they miss two consecutive league games or three games overall. A squad can be disqualified if there is proper notification and evidence of it dissolving. Game-Play Rules A maximum of 8 squads compete within the JWL arena. If necessary the league will be played in two arenas. Squads can only be represented by players on their roster. The minimum number of eligible players is 6. The maximum number of players per squad allowed to start in a match is 4. The minimum number of players per squad allowed to start in a match is 3. Every player must use ship 2. Each player can participate until they reach 20 losses When all players representing a squad have reached 20 losses the squad is out.

If a subs!@#$%^&*ution is necessary due to either the lag-limit or the maximum number of lag-outs being exceeded it must happen immediately. Lag-outs and leaving the game The maximum amount of lag-outs per player is 3.Once this limit is reached the player must be subs!@#$%^&*uted immediately or is eliminated. A player cannot re-enter the game if he/she has been out of action for more than 2 minutes (This is a combined time that can encomp!@#$%^&* all 3 lag-outs). They must be subs!@#$%^&*uted immediately or are eliminated. A player must notify the referee if he/she chooses to leave the game so their win/loss record can be recorded. If a player leaves or lags out of the game and does not return before completion the squad receives a penalty of 10 points.

hmm, im planning to run the league matches as normal sblball matches are beeing run: using F5 and /*lag . Hmm rish, u tried it 3 times and it failed? diddnt even recordnize there was sblball league b4. doubt u tried it 3 times in the 6 weeks i havent been around?! however, what was the reason for the league(s) to fail? so maybe i can learn from your mistakes.... The only way sblball league can fail in my eyes is a lack of interest from (gramatically right ?)the players. But no league is aware of that and ill try my best to make it popular. and about the early signups: the fact that they already opened are just a plus of time for the squads to get a team signed up. nothing else. uh oh, and beware will help me so im pretty sure it gonna be fun for the players and even staff aswell. -cre p.s. i dont like bots. i dont use them for hosting.

as naedhaha is not 17th Parallel staff, thers no need for discussion in my eyes.

i have talken to pernille and she told me itd be allright to start signups. check when the first match is beeing played. oh.. and btw, this is nyb at all, is it? polite? <3 anyway

As far as i know we are 17th. what has that to do with soccer zones? however: ==// SQUAD SIGNUPS ARE OPEN \\== Read news.txt (hope pern gets to upload it soon). And check www.sblball.info.ms for further information.

whats wrong about the setts?

I dont want to interrupt your lil argument, but think rifle and all these "upper staffers" do the best they can to improve the gameplay fun. though this shows that they know that pub sucks a bit, not only because they have been staff for long but for coming into 17th seeing 19 ppl in spec and 6v6 playing (as it often is). -*BAD WORD*-ing wont make any changes but making suggestions how to make pub better. though due to i have experienced it too many times, i dont think either that helps, cuz actually, staff listens to -*BAD WORD*-ing to much.

yeh well, that map got tested once but with another "version" of it. i liked it, not only because i made it but the newer version is much better though... i think it had been put down especially because of the ugly tileset

yeh well the old 1 is back up. question: would you like to see the new north back up instead of the old 1 ?

?go #matrix <3

No offense Roach, but why do you say something like that , and then, a few comments later you tell the absolute opposite? I think the problem of new maps in general are the "comments in affect". All these voices of ppl who dont really think about what their oppinion is at first and just blame a map or something someone has made. This wont lead us anywhere and lemme state one thing straight: This was not ment as a new map(as you have seen i diddnt touch east/west) it was a try to make the old map better. It was a try to bring north back to life and it seemed to me that ppl had fun. i wouldnt say after 2-3 days north is empty again, i think the new north was just easier to defend and you diddnt need hours to get all the flags. The tube is ment to be very small. Its main usage is, that the flags are easy to get if north is empty. I see the bounce problem aswell, but just make bounce more expensive and everyone will be fine again. Well, however, i think the north is better than the old north, but i dont think its so good that it would kill the soccer game...

well check north now. It's always played... i think its better than the old map even because its actually played...

hehe, guess you'd need the event creator No. 1 =) j/k Nice new site and forum -Ma+

Hey cencil: If you find out your best friend murdered your grilfriend, keep liking him cuz hes still the same person ! Btw, you just turned out to be as you are wich suprises some ppl. Live with it as we have to live with you. But *greetz* this it thankfully not my buisness anymore

I dont want you gona because i dont have a reason for that (SCREW THIS LANGUAGE). And you should not go because of this. There been other things, worse things in the past and you still sticked to 17th staff. Please stay.
