These are the leagues as they stand

Div A            Div B            Div  C            Div D

FOD             RSRT            AAA               CCS
DCA             FF                FSB                DP
GYG            FEAR            GP                 BST
JB                MrE              PIE                GTT
RoAr            LCA              DOGS            DI
KoQ             KFC              RAP3             GBH
QoA             LSoG            kor                 WNB
SWS            DR                CHAOS         RAF

Pity that FSB ain't in Div B with LSoG, we'd give you a damn good hiding
then :-)

Also, it's a shame about the current state of the rules.....

1. Proxies (such as RW and BW Proxy) are allowed
        Bugger, cos this helps cheating, as ppl using RW can chase cam the
enemy and inform on player positions etc...not nice...

2. No LPB limit
        So we're gonna have at least 2 - 3 clans that are made up entirely
of LPB's ( this is no overstatement either, there are that many lpb's in
some clans...)

3. No Grenades
        I mean I wouldn't mind about the LPB's if we had grenades to help
flush all the sniper bastards out....i mean you ever faced a good LPB sniper
or two? Imagine a whole fucking side of the buggers, the only way I've ever
been able to combat them is a grenade, they soon move and it's on level
terms then... :-(

4. FSB aren't allowed to field two teams
        Even though we were told before that we were allowed (but then the
management of the league changed and everything gets thrown out the window)

Oh well, I'm ranting ain't I? :-)

I think you can just take it that I'm not happy about this league :-(
