If you are setting up an interBBS league game and created an
OXNODES.DAT file, you have already chosen a three-digit league ID for
your league. If people in your league play in more than one league,
that ID number will prevent packets from the different leagues from
"colliding."
Another common problem in interBBS games is that distribution time-lag
can cause packets to show up after an old game is over and a new game
has begun. Many league coordinators make a practice of switching league
numbers after every game to manage this problem. With Iron Ox, though,
you don't need this confusing practice: Iron Ox inserts a special
identifier into each league packet so it can tell valid packets apart
from "left-over" packets.
Please select a value between 1 and 255. What value you choose doesn't
really matter; the only important thing is that if you're resetting the
game, you choose a value *different* than the one you used last time.
