Origin

The project was started to fit the needs of Jystrup Blood Bowl League (JYBBL). JYBBL's earlier solution was a web site with static web pages written in HTML. Niels Justesen, league commissioner of JYBBL, wanted to create a dynamic web site with automatic database updates. Nicholas Mossor Rathman became a part of the project in the early beginning to lead the programming part.

    Development

In later releases, it will be possible to select which house rules a league wants to use, by marking boxes in the user interface.
