General Rules:
- All players must be be within the ranks of their bracket at the start of the tournament. Should they decay or farm out of their bracket before the tournament starts, they'll be moved to their appropriate bracket at the end of registrations
- If during the tournament you rank past the limit or decay past the limit you are safe to stay in the tournament in your bracket
- To register you must have at least 100 hours minimum of playtime and an account that has been registered for at least 3 months
- Reserves are accepted, however, it is not a guarantee that you will be admitted into the tournament
- Reserves fill in empty spots left by players who drop out of the tournament at the start
- In order for a reserve to fill in an empty spot they MUST be in the rank range of the bracket of the empty spot
- The last day reserves are able to fill empty spots for Part 1 is September 13 @15UTC and for Part 2 is October 11th @ 15UTC
- Staff rules and limitations can be found here
- Joining the discord is mandatory for all players as it will be used to communicate to and between players and staff. No discord? Either make one or you will not be allowed to join.
- When joining the discord, please change your nickname to your in-game username, there will also be more instructions upon welcome to the discord
- In the event of a name change please notify staff via discord DMing
- Rescheduling rules will be posted and pinned in the channel labelled #reschedules
- Toxicity is not permitted. Cases will be judged individually by the staff, however in general, we will use a two-strike system (depending on the severity of the offense). Playful banter is perfectly acceptable, but outright flaming and harassment is not cool.
- The above rule applies to the discord as well, should any players harass or abuse other players or staff or regular members of the discord it will result in a strike.
- Previous winners are not permitted to play again in the bracket they previously won in for the duration of 1 installment.
General Match Rules:
- It is highly recommended to be online 10 minutes before your match for the purpose of setting up lobbies, players who do not show up after 10 minutes from the scheduled match time will result in the match being a loss for them
- Players who don’t show up to their assigned match without notifying the staff of a time conflict will be blacklisted from the next installment of this tournament
- If you are scheduled for a streamed match, it is mandatory to be on 10 minutes before your match starts
- Disconnects are unfortunate, but they happen. A disconnect will be treated as a map loss, unless the player who didn’t disconnect agrees to replay the map. If a player is disconnected for longer than 5 minutes, the match will be considered forfeit.
- During a match, the ref will always have the final say for anything that happens in a lobby.
Lobby Stage Rules:
- 4 lobbies of 8 players
- 7 maps are played
- Top 4 advance to the Bracket Stage
- Top 4 is determined by points which is determined by what place players place at on a map. Points are as following:
>1st - 6
>2nd - 4
>3rd - 3
>4th - 2
>5th and lower - 0 - Should we not reach 32 players we will make adjustments and notify players.
- Should 4th and 5th place tie in points at the end of 7 maps then a tiebreaker is played between the two to determine who moves on
- There will be no banning or warmups
- Players will roll before each map to determine who picks, highest roll picks
- Once a player has won a roll they do not get to roll again unless need be
- If a player logs on after their lobby has started they are still eligible to play. However none of the maps that were played in their absence will be replayed and they will receive a 0 for every map they have missed.
- A freemod pick must include Hidden, Hard Rock, and/or Easy.
- Tiebreakers may be played nomod or they may include Hidden, Hard Rock, and/or Easy.
- No same mod maps may be picked in a row (per match pick)
>For example: two nomod picks may not be played in a row, two hd picks may not be played in a row
Bracket Stage Rules:
- Double elimination with a bracket reset
- Matches will be based on player availability, but must occur on the dates set for that match as observed in the schedules linked above
- Streamed matches will be at specific times that will be announced to players each week
- Winners bracket matches will take place on Friday - Saturday, losers bracket matches take place on Sundays (with the finals weekend being an exception to this)
- A roll at the start of the match will take place, winner of the roll gets first warm-up, second ban, and first pick, loser gets the opposite
- There will only be 1 ban per player
- Warm up maps are to be 4:00 or less, they may be longer only at the pre-approval of the ref and the other player. Anything exceeding 6:00 is banned from being used at all as a warm up
