Bots changed the leagues quite a bit. I don't think that link is up to date.
For anyone planning to run the league, the last leagues bots posted are run with all bots in a tournament setting. (meaning if 1st and 2nd strongest bot fight in round one, 2nd strongest bot doesn't show up in the top bots) For a proper leaguetable it'll need to rerun with a stepladder. Be warned that may take time, if you're going to run it with all bots. (may take the last leaguetable before bots implemented tournament as a starting point)
Seems Google is looking for people. I just got an email from a google recruiter. Pity they don't have any office remotely close.

Well, maybe just point these points to shadow as he's the league guy now? Yeah, stepladder will take time peter, I mean...Look at the starting gate of the bots that clogged up from botsareus's absence.

yea things have slowed down because i've gotten ill though not seriously. just enough to effect me mentally so at night i just don't have the mental capacity to do much. so far i only have 2 bots but i plan on having a page done a night before i start the leagues starting fully next week. at least i didn't get the brunt of the cold like my parents.

What if we opened up a download for a leagues round runner, of course you couldn't do it nums, but peter could. Then just make it automatically go onto the next stepladder/round recording it in a text document?
Then the leagues could be ran without even someone there, just someone to initiate it, and record it.
Botsareus:
Peter, you are forgetting about league seeding. The first and second place bots will never run in the first round. Although if I to do it over would have made it based on energy and not population.
I think the best solution is to have a submit button that goes server side and updates a step ladder. Numsgil at one point was considering something like that with a web crawler.

I didn't get very far on it but being able to automatically run the leagues on the server as things get submitted is definitely preferable to the current hit-or-miss manual methods.
