Greetings,
	Here are the schedules for the WNL season!  We appologize for the
lateness in getting this out to you, since some teams will have games
starting this coming Sunday.  Note that all games are *FIXED* times and
servers, but that captains have the flexibility of moving game times or
servers if *both* captains agree.
	Team F below, is composed of the people who joined the WNL as
players seeking a team.  We encourage teams to consider obtaining players
from this team  (since they have a large roster) if the formed team is
experiencing attendance problems and wants to add one to two fresh faces.
Rosters should be available shortly on the wnl website
(http://w1.netrek.org/wnl/).  The trade deadline will be Saturday
11/4/2000.

  Captains can agree to any server as long as it is running the latest WNL
source.  This is available from:

Run configure and install as per directions.
This WNL version of the Vanilla server already has LTD_STATS and
LTD_PER_RACE defined.  It is also bundled with RSA.  Be sure to enable
RSA.

  Captains are reminded that games should start by 15 minutes after the
designated game time to avoid forfiets.  Captains can ask for an
additional 15 minutes, but the opposing captain must agree.  Please be
polite about these requests, both in asking and in granting.

  Captains and players are encouraged to view the entire rulebook at:

In this is contained all the rules for subbing and how the scoring system
will work.

Let's have a fun season!
