Our rules are quite simple here in the Den Of Spades
NO harassment of any kind is tolerated whether during game play or in lobby. Respect yourself and others. No vulgar, obscene or strong cursing language is permitted, one warning is all you'll receive. If it continues after that you will be removed from the league. Misbids apply to all players including subs 1st -50 ~::~ 2nd -100 ~::~ 3rd DQ Tied Games A -200 game will be won by the least amount of bags the team with the least amount of bags is closest to zero A plus scores will be won by the most bags. A tied game will result in one hand of the hosting TD's game choice. Boot timer If you're booted from lobby you have 10 minutes to return to lobby and or your game. Play timerWhen in a game you have 30 seconds to play a card if you haven't asked for a brb. If you hold up the game for longer than 30 seconds the hosting TD can boot you from the table. If you're booted 3 times in one game you will forfeit that game. Be Right Back Timer From the time you say brb you have 3 minutes to get back to the game and unless it's an emergency you only get 1 brb per game. Kibitzing Rule At no time are you permitted to kibitz a game table in league unless you're the acting TD. Game Terms You're not permitted to be in two games at one time. If you're a staff member you're not allowed to host in league and play a game in another. This is respectful to the td's and members and will minimize slow play.
Remember that while most of us are adults, we do have young members and common sense and courtesy during league play should always be used.
