Leagion is a Java-based program to scorinate domestic leagues. Its name came from the fact that you can simulate "legions of leagues" without having to re-compile the program as the scorinator of WC13 required. Leagion was not used to host World Cup 13 even though people tend to think that, nearly no code of the WC13 scorinator found its way into the Leagion code. It was written by the player of Rejistania to make H1SR-tables. The program gained popularity by being announced in the Internet Relay Chat and people started to request features. After a huge number of nights with coffee and code, Leagion gained the ability to be used for World Cup scorination and eliminational tournaments. It was used for this purpose in WC16 (by Rejistania and fallback-host Total n Utter Insanity), but the Brazillico formula, used originally in the Cup of Harmony created unreasonably high and random scores. New versions of Leagion are using the original Leagion-formula again (but the KPB formula works too).
