<h2> Getting vouched </h2>
To play in LIHL, you must be vouched. To begin the process of being vouched, please post a topic in the [http://entgaming.net/forum/viewforum.php?f=73 Vouch Requests] forum with the title account@east and the following format below. Within a five days window, at least five vouched players or a moderator must vouch for you in order to get your application approved for a trial period (only vouches vouching for one's LTD skill/knowledge will be counted; other comments will be considered as feedback).

# Join the ENT LIHL clan channel on useast.battle.net (Azeroth) by searching the channel or typing  /j clan lihl at any wc3 channel..
 
# The first player types: ''!start''
Starting 06/2017, we have switched to a Discord bot for starting LIHL games. This is mainly due to Blizzard's stance towards hosting/channel bots.
# The others type: ''!sign'' (to join the game).
 
Once enough players have signed and all slots are taken, teams will be auto-balanced based on ELO and the game name will be announced in the channel and hosted immediately.
In order to use the LIHL bot, you must be in the LIHL Discord group. PM your league moderators or the Discord Staff to add you.
* Use <code>!start</code> to initiate a game.
