Rules:

·         Map selection will proceed as follows: Each player is allowed to completely veto one map from the map pool, for the duration of the match. After this players take turns to eliminate one map each, until the final ‘Starting Map’ is left. Every subsequent map will be chosen by the previous map’s loser, taking into account that a vetoed map may not be chosen. A coin toss will decide which player goes first. Alternatively players may simply agree on a starting map.

o    Map Pool:
1. Steppes of War
2. Lost Temple
3. Blistering Sands
4. Metalopolis
5. Jungle Basin
6. Xel’Naga Caverns
7. Delta Quadrant
8. Scrap Station
9. Shakuras Plateau

·         In the case of a disconnection: A disconnection within the first four (4) minutes of play time will result in a rematch. A disconnection after four (4) minutes will result in a loss, unless the players request a rematch and an admin approves. Any disputes should be brought to an admin’s attention.

·         Foul language and general misconduct: Those guilty will receive a warning based on severity. Misconduct includes tardiness, disrespect to other players or administrators and players not submitting results to an administrator after a game is completed. Administrators reserve the right to disqualify a player for misconduct.

·         Match Results: A map is won in one of two ways – Beat your opponent sufficiently to have him/her admit defeat (Standard practice is ‘gg’) or destroy all of his/her buildings.The result of each match must be reported by both players to an admin.

·         Replays must be submitted to a tournament administrator after each round in the format ‘Player1_Player2_Map_GameNumber’ (Example: Alcardu_fluKe_ScrapStation_2). Email fluke[@]polarfluke.co.za or alcardu[@]polarfluke.co.za.

·         Ingame Spectators: Players may decide if they are to allow spectators into a match, however administrators and approved shout casters may spectate any match.

·         The administrators decision is final, no discussion on decisions will be entered into.

·         Participants of a minor age must submit a letter of consent via email along with their entry for the tournament.

As always we welcome feedback, both negative and positive. So don’t hesitate if there is anything you wish to bring to our attention or inquire about further :)
