Interent Mode kind of supplanted the leagues for a while.  There are certain interesting aspects to competing against many different species simultaniously (many of which are mutate and can counter weaknesses via evolved adaptations) across in a multitude of different sims with different environments....

Numsgil:
You can run the leagues yourself if you like.  There really isn't any qualifications required.  Just take all the bots and run them in the order they were submitted in whatever leagues they fit. I can give you moderator priveleges to let you move bots from the starting gate.

Moonfisher:
Yeah but I can't get internet mode to work propperly, and since I never know what kind of environments there could be I don't know how to tune the bot, so I always end up comparing it to league bots, Pacifist was suposed to be for internet mode but enden up as an F1 in the end...
Would be cool if the different setting of the inveronments on the servers where posted, or atleast the imporant ones... so yu know what you should be working on, or you can go for controll of some of them... but... I can't participate anyway :'(

And I'm not sure I'm a good call for running the leagues, I don't even have the league files since I can't download them, and I'm afraid of doing something wrong, I'm not even sure I'm running the F1 league right atm. I noticed if you use the restart and league most values are locked, but you can still give different starting energy, I'm guessing it's 3000 for all but not sure...
Just seems wrong for me to handle the leages since I've never even seen them run
Not sure about when a bot is valid, how many people can enter in each league and all that stuff.

I just feel like too much of a noob still, can't even join Internet Mode...

I'm having the same trouble with internet mode. As for leagues, it goes like so:
F1 - All comers
F2 - Things that dont use viruses or tie-weaponry
SB - 6 genes or less
MB - The author claims it's a multibot and it sorta looks like one
SS - one store
The SB and multibot leagues have been untouched since 2006, so F1 and F2 are probably all that would be asked.

For the league table, the "most current" one is the list Jez edited into the league topic. Worst case you just copy it over into the text file and download the bots on it separately.

If you are running a league match, it will choose all settings for you - even bot colors and starting energy. Once it starts, all you need to do is not interfere with the matches.

I think thats what it amounts to. The scary part is still the 4 pages of backlog.

EricL:
I'd be interested in better understanding the issues people are having with IM.  What exactly is the problem you are experiencing?  There are some connetivity issues yes, but that should only be a problem occasionally...
