League Game
Hand Book

The following is 4Fun's League Games Hand Book. This information was compiled to help you understand the rules to League Games in 4Fun.

1. What are League Games? League games are games that members play in the lobby when they are waiting for a tournament or when they do not have time to play a full tournament. Members call in the lobby asking for opponents for these games. For example they may say, "need 2 for NTC league game". They will invite the first 2 players that say me in the lobby. It is important when calling for a game in lobby that you are specific as to what the game is. It is a golden rule in 4Fun to accept the first 2 players that say "me".

You can play league games as singles or doubles games.

All league games are to be played at Rated and Private tables.

Only play games that are listed on the Game Rules Page (click here "GAMES" for list of games)

Speed Games cannot be played as league games.

Before starting a game please make sure all players know what game is being played and that everyone knows the rules of this game.

2. A Contract - League games are a verbal contract between players. By accepting a league game you are accepting that you will report your loss (or losses in a doubles games) as soon as the game is DONE. You should not start another league game until the previous game has been reported. Many players wait until the end of the day to report their losses but then forget to report those losses. This causes a lot of hard feelings. So please make it a habit to report your losses as soon as the game is done but not before it is finished as some times things happen in games and you end up winning. So please wait until the game is completely finished, then submit your loss. On the main page of the league click on STANDINGS and the Report Loss link is the last listing. For a direct link click below.

Report Loss

3. Friendly reminder - If an opponent fails to report their loss please message them and remind them to report their loss to you. Please do not do this in the lobby as it may embarrass your opponent. A friendly reminder sometimes helps.

4. Wait 24 Hours - Do not make an unreported match claim until 24 hrs after the game was finished.

PLEASE NOTE: This does NOT mean that the losing player has 24 hrs to report the loss as rules state that you will report your loses as soon as the game is DONE. You should not start another league game until the previous game has been reported.

5. Unreported matches - When an unreported match is filed against you, you will receive an email from MyLeague informing you of this report. Please check your game stats to see if this match was reported for you if not you can report your losses at this time. When league operations checks into the unreported match, if they find it has not been reported then they will report the match. They will notify you that they have reported the match. If it is your first offense you will also receive a warning, 2nd offense you will be dropped on the ladder and for your 3rd or future offenses you will be boxed 3 days.

Report an Unreported Match


6. Booted Players - In all league games, you need to invite a staff member for any MIA players as soon as they go missing. The staff member will run a 10-minute timer.

For Doubles - If the player does not return the staff member will sub for the remainder of the game or until the player returns. If both players from the same team are MIA then the staff member will get another staff member to come and cancel the game and the opponents that went MIA are required to report their losses. The staff member who set the timer will report acknowledgement of this game to league operations so they have a record of this match. If however the score for the players still remaining at the table is 3800 or more the 2 staff members will sub and finish the game.

For Singles - As soon as the opponent goes missing or is idle 3 minutes please invite a staff member to the table. The staff member will run a 10 min timer if the player does not return, the staff member will help cancel the game unless the score by the player who is remaining at the table is over 3800 then the TD will help finish this game. The opponent that went MIA is required to report their loss to the remaining player. The staff member who set the timer will report acknowledgement of this game to league operations so they have a record of this match.

If at any time you get booted while playing a Doubles League Game it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to find out whether your team won or lost and if your team lost, you are required to report your losses.

If at any time you get booted while playing a Singles League Game it is YOUR RESPONSIBILITY to report your loss to your opponent if you do not get back within 10 minutes.

If the Staff member who subbed played at least half the match and their team won you are required to report the loss to the staff member, however subs are not required to submit losses it is up to the original player who went missing to report the loss.

7. Disqualifications - DQ's in league games require a staff to be called to the table BEFORE the game is cancelled. The member or team that DQ's is required to report the loss. The staff member will take note of this disqualification for league operations in case the loss does not get reported.

If you have any questions about League Games or unreported matches,
please feel free to contact our League Operations Admins.
