Frequently Asked Questions
How will the teams be balanced?
We do our best to form competitive teams. It is our goal that every game end in a tie. Unfortunately, this is not realistic, and some teams will emerge stronger than others. Players being absent can drastically affect the strength of the team as well. We encourage everyone to have fun playing each game regardless of the outcome.
