Rules:

One timeout allowed per series per team. This excludes necessary timeouts for lag that is evident to both teams and spectators.

Command for timeout:

/timeout

/timein




All participants must record demos and must provide demos to any participant or tournament moderator that requests them.

Use /cg_autoAction "3" or /record during tournament play. Easiest is to have

seta cg_autoAction "3"

seta cl_demoRecordMessage "1"

in your autoexec.cfg to automatically record demos and display the filename in the heads-up display.

A simple /bind x "record" can also be used as backup if the cg_autoAction failed to trigger.




Players may not begin their official match until a tournament official has been given the information of the server being used.




Servers will be provided by tournament moderators when needed. Choosing servers is to be organised by players in a timely manner. If players are not able to reach a decision on a server, a location will be forced by a tournament official.




Map picking will be done on a pick-pick basis, winner of coinflip picks first..



 

Tournament moderators:

Greth

 

Communication & Server Spawning:

 

Admins will be available on IRC (Channel and server TBA)  and Skype.

 

Servers can be created by the admins but will time-out after not being in use for 15 minutes. After that a new spawn must be made by an admin.

A live list of active servers will be maintained in the following google doc:
