Igel author in a gentleman gesture then offered Booot to take its place in League 2, and this offer was accepted by TD-decision.
  2. [22:31 UTC, 20 February 2023‎] Tournament Director's decision regarding Igel: The many Booot crashes distort League 2 results. To alleviate this problem, Igel will be placed back after this League's play and play a 2 rounds gauntlet with reverse games against the other 11 League 2 engines. After removing Booot's results this will give the final table and promotions for League 2.
