PLAYERS AND TEAMS
⍄》ELIGIBILITY
⍆Any PC player located in North America can participate in the league. There are no age requirements for the league.
⍄》CONNECTION
⍆All players must maintain an average ping lower than 100ms during the game. If this rule is not followed, the player must either
- Resolve the issue in 10 minutes, using a pause/RH which will cost the team breaking the ping rule their pause/RH.
- Be subbed out for a player that follows the ping rules.
If none of these resolve the issue, the opposing team will be awarded the victory.
⍄》ROSTER
⍆The roster must consist of at least 5 players. These players MUST be on the Toornament roster when the roster is submitted. Up to 2 subs are allowed. Roster changes are allowed throughout the season, but we will hold a 3/5ths rule, in which at any point a roster has less than 3 of the original players that entered the league at the beginning, the team will be disqualified from the league.
⍄》EXPLOITS
⍆Any glitch, bug, or exploit that gives a team or player a distinct advantage is prohibited. If a team is found to be using a glitch then the round will be played out until an admin makes a decision.
[2:26 AM]
⍄》MOSS
⍆All players are expected to run moss (can be found at nohope.eu). If a player cannot run moss they need to contact and work with a league administrator to fix the issue. All teams must submit all of their moss files from the game within 30 minutes of the match finishing. If a player and/or team fails to submit one or more MOSS file, said team will forfeit the match, and the opposing team would receive a 1-0 victory.

⍄》MAP BANS
⍆Map bans will be done 30 minutes before games between the two team captains with an admin present..
[2:26 AM]
⍄》REHOST/PAUSES
⍆Guidelines
⋗Tactical timeouts are pauses to have a conversation between the team members. Tactical timeouts will not be questioned and will be given to the team under any circumstance. Maximum duration for a tactical timeout is 2 minutes. Each team has 1 Tactical Timeout per map.
⋗Technical timeouts are a timeout to fix a technical issue from a player. This includes disconnects/crashes, etc. Technical timeouts may not be taken if all players are still in the lobby. Maximum duration for a technical timeout is 5 minutes.
⋗The game must be continued within 10 minutes of a rehost, unless administration intervention is required. If a disconnected player cannot rejoin within 10 minutes of a rehost, the game will continue as a 4v5 for the duration of a map.
[2:26 AM]
⋗Teams may not use a rehost to change players present in the game (1 map). If under unfortunate circumstances a player has left the lobby and is unable to rejoin back due to unforeseen roadblocks, the team is encouraged to keep playing in a group of four players. Forfeits are not advised by the PAL Administration team.
⋗If a rehost happens during prep phase or action phase, the rehosted round must have the exact same site picked, unless it violates game rules.
⋗Teams are allowed to use their timeout for a player to remove a banned cosmetic item and allow a player to reconnect to the game.
⋗Timeouts are not limited when a game-breaking bug has occurred. (Soundbug, stuck in the map, etc.)
[2:26 AM]

⍄》TOXICITY
⍆Toxicity isn’t accepted in any way, shape, or form. However, there is a difference between banter and toxicity. Toxicity is bannable but we will have a warning system in place.
