The Rules


Make sure you have read the league rules! Ignorance is not an excuse! This is just the basics, so please make sure you review the rules on the league page as well.

The player age limit is 18 yrs old. It you are younger and would like to be considered to play, you must contact the head admin directly.

Your ladder name must match your Pogo name as near as possible. Please remember that pogo might accept crude or vulgar names, but as we are a family league we do not. The Admin Staff reserves the right to ask you to change your name if we think it is inappropriate.

Please make sure you provide a valid e-mail when you sign up. Note to AOL users - AOL reflects all Cases/Myleague email as spam, so please watch your spam folder or use an alternate email.

Only ONE account per person is allowed. If you are found to have multiple accounts ALL accounts will be kicked.

It is against Cases policy to share passwords. Please do not ask anyone to register you for a tourney.

Members of the same household are not allowed to play in teams together or ladder one another. They may play in the same tourneys but must not register and play from the same computer. (Please let the admins know if there is more than one person from a household playing!)

Any disputes, whether it is personal or to do with the league, are to be taken to a private table or I/M with the TD hosting. Disputes are never to be brought to the lobby. If boxed members/banned members/non members disrupt the lobby, members are to mute and report. Failure to abide by these rules will cause you to get time in the box.

Members will be respectful at all times to other members and non members. They will show good sportsmanship at all times. Don't forget to say Good Luck, Good Game and congratulate winners!

We have a zero tolerance of swearing in the league. If you swear in the lobby or at table then it is an automatic 3 days boxing.

Please be aware of the tournies you are jumping. Do not jump back to back tournaments if you think there is a possibility you will delay the start of upcoming tours.

Give respect to Hosts at all times as they give their free time and are NOT paid to give you tourneys this includes no disruptions within tourney respecting the host when doing rules and setting the tables.

Cheating is not tolerated in any way, shape or form. All accusations brought to the attention of the admin team are fully investigated. If evidence is found to verify a player has cheated during any league activity, the players account WILL be removed immediately without warning or notice. These activities may include but are definately not limited to falsly representing their scoring during tournaments. Many tours are based on honesty and we try to give the benefit of the doubt, so know that the decision to remove players is not made lightly and not without verification and/or justification.

Any actions taken to enforce league rules are final and will not be reversed. Decisions are made collectively by the Admin Team

Tourney Ettiquette & DQ Rules: Please be in the game room 5 minutes before the start of a tournament. Be courteous to the TD hosting the tournament and the other players. Make sure you pay attention to the rules when the TD announces them. If you are unclear or unsure of the rules, please ask! It is your responsibility to make sure you follow the rules of the tournament. If you are booted from a game for any reason, when feasible you will have either 5 minutes to return or to the end of the round. Not all games played allow for a "5 minute timer." If you fail to return in time, you will be DQ'd for that round. If you are unable to stay in a tournament and get booted from a game room 3 times, you will be removed from the tournament. Please keep in contact with the TD's.

If you have any questions in regards to tournament rules or player ettiquette, please contact Charm.
