You have 15 minutes to start your first game.

This time starts when an administrator tells you that your round can begin their games. If you are not in game by the 15 minute mark, you will be issued a DQ for game 1. From the time of DQ, you have 15 more minutes to start your next game. If your game does not start in that time, you will be issued a DQ for the set.

------------------------

TOURNAMENT PROCESS:

A bracket will be posted shortly following the end of check-ins. Wait for the bracket to be posted to see what your first match is. It is the responsibility of the team captains to then contact the respective opponent captain to do ban and select maps.

* Everything up until semi-finals will be BEST OF THREE (Bo3)
* Semi-finals and finals will be BEST OF FIVE (Bo5)
* You will be playing custom games with the competitive siege draft mode
* All games MUST HAVE SPECTATOR ENABLED
* 3rd person should be DISABLED
* Do NOT use a spectator password
Process of picking/banning maps:

* Higher seed bans 1 map
* Lower seed bans 1 map
* Higher seed bans 1 map
* Lower seed bans 1 map
* Game 1 - Higher seed picks map and chooses to be 1st pick or 2nd pick
* Game 2 - Lower seed chooses map and 1st pick or 2nd pick
* Every game thereafter, the loser of the previous game chooses map and 1st pick or second pick
* Your seed is the number next to your team name on the bracket. You'll see when it's posted
* Higher seed = lower number

During semi-finals and finals, all drafting needs to be done in the captains channels so we can record the information.

When you're about to start your set, YOU MUST LET ME KNOW IN YOUR CAPTAIN CHANNEL
Ex: Team 1 vs. Team 2 starting games

If you dont let me know your set is starting, I will assume you're not playing your games and you will be disqualified.

When you have completed a game, you must post the results in #match-results in the following format and INCLUDE A SCREENSHOT OF YOUR POST-MATCH SCREEN so we can see your Match ID

WINNER OF GAME vs. LOSER OF GAME - GAME SCORE - MATCH ID - CURRENT SET SCORE

Example:

Flash Point wins vs. WASD Sports - 4-3 - 94888548 - 1:0

These results need to be posted after EVERY GAME.

BREAKS:

15-minute breaks will be given before semi-finals and before finals. Prior to these rounds, it is your responsibility to be available for your games at all times.
