: : Nas, is the league a MyLeague?
: yeah......
that is probably why they can and we can't nas. My league is different in that anybody can create a league. With so many leagues running same games, there are limited lobbies. In myleague, you can share lobbies where two (or more) leagues can be in the same lobby under certain restrictions. Case's leagues are "professionaly" operated in that no random person can create a league, all leagues are created by Case's itself. Since there are less leagues per game it allows spreading out of lobbies. I don't think two Case's (igl.net/??) leagues can share one lobby which is why you only see one Gamesback league - there is only one backgammon lobby. I don't know if that's really how it works, it's just the way I'd expect it to work. But nevertheless, no matter how it works, the decision to temporarily share a lobby is probably not up to any td or HTD, etc.
Again, not sure if this is all right, it's just a theory I've gathered ;)
