<b>Old World Blood Bowl Association - The Beautiful League</b>

<p>
<b>Group Restrictions:</b><br />
The only restrictions the OBBA places on teams is that no games may be played outside
the League structure.</p>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Group Timezones:</b><br />
The OBBA is a European based league. All coaches are expected to be able to play
during 1800-2300 server time (GMT+1) but provided both parties agree any time may
be scheduled. Only game offers with reasonable times will be taken into account
for forfeit decisions.</p>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Game Frequency: </b>
<br />
Games are to be played according to the schedule - 1 game/10 days - though a rolling
schedule is in place, if you are able to play ahead then feel free to do so. Extensions
will be given where possible to cover holidays and the like based upon a reasonable
amount of time and notice.</p>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Game Etiquette: </b>
<br />
There are no restrictions placed upon team tactics. Teams may purchase wizards,
hire stars, foul etc...</p>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>League Structure:</b><br />
Teams are divided into divisions, these are:

A season is currently made up of the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Friendlies - 1 is allowed at the start of the season, in rare cases 2.</li>
<li>League Competition (7 Game Round Robin) - All teams within the same division play
each other according to the game schedule. </li>
<li>Award Ceremony - Fluff write up of the handing out of awards</li>
<li>OBBA Cup - A 32 team KO tournament. Premiership teams are seeded *</li>
</ul>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>League Scoring:</b></p>
<ul>
<li>3 points per win</li>
<li>1 point per draw</li>
<li>0 point per loss </li>
<li>-1 point for forfeit, treated as a 2TD win</li>
</ul>
<p>
If two teams end the season with the same amount of points then Td-difference will
decide their overall finishing position, if the teams are still tied then Cas-difference
will also be used. In the event of a tie under all these conditions then head to
head record and finally a coin flip will be used.</p>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Knockout Tournament Overtime<br />
</b>Overtime for tournament games is as per CRP.</p>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Friendlies</b><br />
Friendlies are played at the beginning of a new season with the following rules:</p>
<ul>
<li>Friendlies begin only when announced by staff - <u>do not play any games before
this!</u></li>
<li>You are responsible for arranging your own friendlies</li>
<li>All friendlies that you are entitled to must be played before the round deadline
- no exceptions</li>
<li>You may not play the same team in a friendly more than once in any one season</li>
</ul>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Promotion and Relegation: </b>
<br />
At the end of each season the three teams with the highest points are promoted to
the division above. The three teams with the lowest points are relegated to the
division below.
</p>
<p>
The only exceptions to this are:</p>
<ul>
<li>In the event of drop outs mid tournament, these will be auto relegated</li>
<li>In the event of drop outs after the season, new promotion slots will be generated</li>
</ul>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Team Capping<br />
</b>Each division has a TW (Tournamen weight) CAP that is applied at the start of
a season (post friendlies). These are:</p>
<ul>
<li>Premiership: No Cap </li>
<li>Championship: 2200 </li>
<li>League One: 1900</li>
<li>League Two: 1600 </li>
</ul>
It is your responsibility to ensure you meet this cap at the start of the competitive
season (post friendly phase). Failure to do so will result in you being asked to
meet the original cap despite any games you may have played and also forfeiting
points won.
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Drop outs, retirements and replacements:<br />
</b>We kindly ask that if you are capable that you do not drop out of the league
or retire your team during a tournament (be that league or cup). Drop outs will
not be allowed back into this group and potentially others. If a team has become
wholly unplayable and must be retired then, if feasible, the coach can create another
team - but even so we urge the coach to persevere until at least the end of the
current tournament. A new team will begin on 0 points.</p>
<p>
Should a team/coach leave the group/division then it will be at the discretion of
the staff as to whether or not to replace that team and in what manner.</p>
<hr color="#008000" />
<p>
<b>Yellow and Red Cards:<br />
</b>The staff reserve the right not to invite teams back for another season or remove
a team immediately from the group. This will likely occur if a team forfeits an
unacceptable amount of games during the season or is unresponsive to either staff
or opposing coaches PMs.</p>
