This is my teams' own box score post for HGL-PL on Season 5:

HGL-PL Round 1, Monday July 20th, 2026:
MLS-#BOR [match=XXX]

HGL-PL Round 2, Friday July 24th, 2026:
#TD-BOR [match=XXX]

HGL-PL Round 3, Sunday July 26th, 2026:
#SAN-BOR (139719056)

Well done, bort - match time and day is correct.

If match is played on neutral court (I suppose you both checked that out), then it's 100% correctly done.

Please proceed to organizing other matches as well, as soon as possible, thank you.

If any problems/challenges or questions arise, please let me know.

M.L.S. REICH and Tassie Devils still haven't created their box score posts for their teams, and MLS has only been logged in on 11th. BBMail has been sent to all HGL-PL participants already on 11th of JUly, both on start of match organizing process and for a need to create a box score post.

Still no box score posts created, or as far as I understood from message of one manager, match offers sent either by Tassie Devils nor M.L.S. REICH (but I could have also mistaken in my interpretation).

So I sent them another reminder by BBMail, reminding everyone that all matches need to be organized prior to beginning (so that I can check match specs). I noted everyone that this is an urgent process and match organizing window is open only a short while (which they must've noticed already, but sometimes it's necessary to repeat), and teams risk being disqualified from (or forfeiting matches in) HGL-PL should they not organize matches in time.

And as I have probably restricted access to BB tomorrow, I guided them here on Official HGL Threads if they have any urgent questions.

It's fine if you don't have an answer for them, but I guess I've opened up the rules of HGL-PL deep enough so that many of us could guide them in general HGL-PL questions and match organizing process, especially as we're generally sticking with HGL practices that we're all familiar with (and that'll get every HGL-PL participant ready for HGL as well as possible simultaneously, as they're already learning important steps going through this process).

Thanks Wagner, great to see confirmation from you as I wasn't too sure whether I had set it all up correctly.

I have invited MLS for our Round 1 match (on neutral court) and still waiting for response. Also waiting for match invite from TD for Round 2. Thanks

Hello all,

I am making my team (137833) HG. In 4-5 days the process should be finished. Hope to be able to play in HGL in season 7!!

I started playing in 2023, then almost exactly one year ago, I left the game. I have now come back. I usually like to play HG in other games, and although I started with a normal rebuild (thus my extra 5 players), I saw the posts about the HGL and went: that's great! Let's do this now (turn HG).

Best wishes all

Thanks Wagner, great to see confirmation from you as I wasn't too sure whether I had set it all up correctly.

It is necessary to reorganize this Round 1 match.

Like I think I already mentioned, this Round 3 match for your is organized at correct time, 15.30 EET DST.

Round 1 match MLS-BOR starts at 16.30, which is obviously wrong time (as 15.30 is correct).

So quick reorganizing of that match 1 hour earlier is needed. Of course still Round 2 match is missing as well, which needs to be added immediately when it's created.

I have no idea how I can challenge San Fernando as I'm no longer a premium member.

Or can I??

Hello,

I have been contacting you about HGL-PL duties that need to be completed way before HGL-PL starts on next Monday.

You still have plenty of things that are required to be done:

- You haven't organized all HGL-PL matches (or at least provided match links - I can not see any of them!). This needs to be done well before HGL-PL starts!

- You haven't created your box score post for HGL-PL to Home-Grown League (HGL) Season 5 Official Thread.
Again, read my previous BBMails to find out instructions.

- when you organize matches, note that it needs to have same time of the day as your Round 1 match against San Fernando VR; all other times are not valid match times, so organize it exactly at the same time.

Act immediately correcting all these details, or your risk your team being disqualified from HGL-PL, or receiving forfeit losses in HGL-PL, which eventually would put you in lousy league table position should you be the only team to forfeit matches.

Thank you for your response and update on situation. This is very good practice to keep me up to date.

As you still have few things that are required to be done, I'll compile them here:

- You haven't organized all HGL-PL matches (or at least provided match links - I can not see any of them!). This needs to be done well before HGL-PL starts. This is the inconvenient side of an all-manual league - I have no access to any of "inside data of BB/view under the hood", so while I have no motivation to suspect what you wrote isn't true, I have no way of confirming which is the case. This is why it's best to avoid confusing situations altogether, as we don't want to make HGL-PL either "a prove it by screenshot"-type of league.
So let's just organize matches as quickly as possible. I understand it's highly frustrating for the manager who has completed their part of the story, but can't fulfill their duties while other managers are not doing their part of the job.

- when you organize matches, note that it needs to have same time of the day as your Round 3 match against San Fernando VR; all other times are not valid match times, so organize all exactly at the same time.
In other words, for instance Round 1 match needs to be reorganized to start 1 hour before current match time (match number 139721682)!

Act immediately correcting all these details, or your risk your team possibly receiving forfeit losses in HGL-PL, which eventually would put you in lousy league table position should you be the only team to forfeit matches.
Again, this is the same problematic situation (to prove who is the faulty manager if matches haven't been organized/links provided) as we face in HGL each Season, but by not letting things slip we've kept the damage at bay so far.

@ Everybody playing in HGL-PL please note:
Match links provided after match has been started never count!
It will be decided whether or not rematch would be done at later time in that occasion (if match isn't organized in time), or whether both teams would receive forfeit loss if it couldn't be proved whose mistake it was due to, that match wasn't organized/link provided.

@all HGL-PL managers:

We have less than 3 days until the start of HGL-PL, and there are multiple things left to be done.
TD and BOR have been sent BBMails and forum messages to correct things, MLS will be sent one soon (EDIT: BBMail sent).

As far as current situation in HGL-PL goes, we have:
- 3 matches organized correctly
- 1 match organized at one hour too late (reorganizing needed; MLS-BOR on Round 1)
- 2 match links missing altogether.



If you wonder how should you proceed, San Fernando VR is the only HGL-PL team who is currently good to go for HGL-PL, and only team which has completed their whole match organizing and box score creation-project completely and has no mistakes/faults in his own box score post. See that post here: (331392.170).
