League Rules and Information

About the League

Concept
Think along the lines of Pub Darts… 

WNA offers acro on Wednesdays where a variety of styles are played and WNA also offers Mondays where GA is played. Both nights are played over periods of 16 weeks. We are not associated with any of the team leagues, so entry is open to any individual player interested in playing a "season" of acro.

Membership
Joining the league may be done at any point throughout the season. Anyone who would like to sit in for a night to get a sense of it is also welcome to do so. Just let us know and we will do our best to accommodate you.

Rules of Play

Clean: Squeaky clean; no profanity or innuendo.

Adult: Acros are headlined (all words capitalized) and end with an exclamation point (question mark OK). An exception would be the title of a story, which doesn't need to end with a punctuation mark.

General Acro (GA): No topics are used. Shoot for one thought, one sentence.

Couch: The round winner creates and types the topic in the chat area using the command "/st" followed by the topic. The first round is always GA. The round winner may not use GA as the topic. If a topic is not provided, the topic becomes "Why is there no topic?"

Winner's Choice (WC): The round winner either creates a topic (including GA) or lets the server provide one.

Story: The first round is the title of the story, headlined and in quotes. The winning acro becomes the title of the story and the following topics continue the story. The Face-Off acros conclude the story or provide the moral.

Something Else (SE): Our take on "Something for Everyone" using topics which are submitted by our members.

Mono(syllabic): One-syllable words are used, usually with GA or themed GA.

Grammar: Please capitalize and punctuate your sentences properly, and avoid use of the ellipsis (...) and the ampersand (&).

Fairness: Do not substitute more convenient letters which resemble the letters given, such as Capital I used as lower case L or V V used as W. Whenever such use is detected, the points for that acro will not count. If you spot anyone doing this, please whisper it to the room moderator.

Wednesday Night Rotation
Weeks 1, 5, 9, 13 = GA
Weeks 2, 10 = Couch; Weeks 6, 14 = WC
Weeks 3, 7, 11, 15 = Story
Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16 = SE
For adult, the third game each week is GA.
