Launch of the BzMatchBall League!
Did you remember the BZWC? Well this new league takes the concept of the BZWC
but turns it into something completely different compared to all other leagues!
The BzMatchBall.org site went officially online today and is ready to welcome you!
Just pay a visit to see what makes it so unique and join the FUN!

In the past it had been discussed whether or not to allow 20 minute matches as an option for match length in the GU League and the general consensus was 'no'. However, the GU Administration Team has decided to initiate a poll to see what the league thinks of the idea at this point in time. It could be a beneficial change for activity, but overall you, the players should decide.
Here's where you can make your voice heard. Vote!

As you all well know, the former website went down recently, and we do apologize for the major inconvenience this has been.

After contacting menotume, much time has been devoted to searching through league software, obtaining hosting, choosing domain name, dealing with DNS propagation, beta testing the site and entering content into the new website. We come now to the present where we have a league site to offer.

As with any new project, this website will likely have some unknown bugs at the beginning. We hope to provide several updates to smooth out some of the rough edges. We welcome constructive, clearly worded input of bugs found and ideas for improvement.

We also added 2 more themes in the config, hoping you will find them pleasing.

Notice of additions to Rules page:
Q: Someone made a /gameover before regular match time ended, what should be the result of that match?
A: Preferably you will not do a /gameover without the agreement of both teams. Also remember that the gameover command should be used only with special occasion. Making it any other way is a sign of bad sportsmanship. If teams do not agree to do game over and cannot decide about a result, the team which did the /gameover will forfeit.

Q: We started a match 2v2, and someone had to leave, what happens now?
A: Preferably, the match will be paused, and a substitute can be found. If not, both teams should agree to either cancel the match, continue the match 2v1, or continue the match at another time. If both teams do not agree to this, then one of three things must happen:
1) If the leading team has lost a player, the match is simply cancelled.
2) If there is a tie, team which lost the player gives a forfeit.
3) If the trailing team lost the player, it is a forfeit, and the score at the time of losing the player is entered.
