The Castles of Burgundy tournament uses the online implementation at www.boiteajeux.net. Use the “single random board” variant, which means that all 4 players in a game will play on the same board, and which board it is will be determined randomly.
Be sure to name the game using the game name below and invite the other players listed. Any player may set up the game, but the winner of each game is responsible for entering the results using the form further down the page.

Overview
Players are sorted into Groups of 7 players each based on previous results, so you should be matched against players of about your ability. In each season, you will play in 4 simultaneous games and each other member of your league will be in exactly two of them. Do well and you’ll get promoted to a tougher division. Do badly and you’ll drop to an easier one. Full details about our format and scoring system (which is the same for all our online leagues) are here: rules page.
Our Castles of Burgundy tournament use the online implementation at www.boiteajeux.net. We use the “single random board” variant, which means that all 4 players in a game will play on the same board, and which board it is will be determined randomly.
After signing up, you will receive an email notifying you once the schedule has been posted. If you do sign up, you are committing to checking the website multiple times on most days (it’s OK if something comes up every once in a while, or if you’re out of town for a weekend, for example), but in general we’re hoping game lengths will be measured in weeks not months.
To break placement ties within games, if two or more players are tied on VPs, the tie will go to the player with the most empty spaces remaining on their board. If still tied, the tied player who moved last in the final turn will win the tie.
We waiting for the acceptation on CoB S4 3-C G4 of ginfeatures …
I was looking in the game search, and my other two games never showed up. I never received any emails from BaJ to let me know they had been created. Only today I saw that they were active, presumably with a substitute player. Is that according to any posted rules? I feel a little robbed.
I just create the game 339884 created for the CoB S4 3-C G4. Please accept the game, the old one was open to the public.

I see it, but it looks like vnet is there three times instead of the other players.
Do you want to send a new invitation Greg, we will all accept, seem vnet is not anymore on the invitation I sent.

All four of my games have been completed for some time now, but only three of the results have been entered. I have no idea which game is missing.
Under Season 4 Standings the Season 5 matchups are posted instead.
Overall it would be helpful if there were a separate page for each season, so one could still access previous results.
