UIAA Slimeball Season 2

The Union Islands Slimeball Season 2 began on November 14, 2019 and ended on March 1, 2020, where one team will be crowned national champions.

Changes
A number of changes to the UIAA Slimeball rulebook and other aspects of the game and season were made following the first season and the controversial tournament layout.

Gameplay Rules

 * Previously, in order to shoot, pressure plates were used. Pressure plates have now been exchanged for stone buttons.
 * Along with the previous point, the 5-point play is no longer possible.
 * Foul shooting starts with the ball in the player's off hand while squatting near the edge of the slime block, before quickly switching the ball to the main hand while standing up and hitting the button in order for the shot to count.

New Rankings System
Teams are still ranked from #1 to #10, this time weekly from the start of the season.

Division I Merge
Division I UIAA Slimeball merged with Division II UIAA Slimeball this season for more teams and more possibilities for non conference play. This increased the number of conferences from five to nine.

Season Play
Each team played anywhere between fifteen and sixteen games during the regular season. Six of those games were required conference matches, while the other nine to ten were non conference play.

Conference Play
Conferences were made up of a total of 4 teams each, meaning each team had to play the other three teams in their conference twice, and only twice, once at home and once away. Below is a list of all conferences and their final standings at the end of the regular season (* next to standing means clinched/won conference title)

Non Conference Play
In order to fill the required fifteen to sixteen games, teams had to bid on playing other teams during the rest of the regular season.

Rankings
Similar to the UIAA Shotarrow rankings, teams were to be reevaluated and ranked, with the top 10 being notably recognized, every week.

Pre-Season Rankings
Special notes include:
 * The Vendala State Panthers, who were the first ever previously Division II Slimeball school to become ranked in the pre-season rankings top 10.
