Staff Changes, a short PSA on Demo Requests and Wednesday Evening Bans

Staff Changes

We would like to announce that Jonez, EASY, and Axio have successfully completed their League Admin trials. Jack has also completed his trial period as a site coder.
And finally, the Anti-Cheat team will include Jortand in our ranks as a full staff member.

PSA on Demo Requests

Recently we have received a couple of requests about players not receiving emails when demos have been requested or general admin comments were posted on a matchpage. In most of these cases it turns out that the team leaders and deputies did not enable the option “Send Email Notifications” in their profile dashboard, or their email was not current anymore. Even if you are not a leader or deputy in your current team, you should still consider leaving this feature enabled for the future. If you need to change your email address, please open a League Admin request on our Discord as you cannot change it yourself.

Furthermore, we will use this post to remind you that you are required to keep all of your demos from official matches until the wrap-up post of the season has been published!
