Divisions: Teams will play versus each other. 1 round/week on SUNDAY at 20.00 cet.
Playoffs: Only the best 2 Teams of each Group will qualify to playoffs.
Map pack: Map pack will be released One week prior to the match start date.
--------- During the match -----------
Rounds: Each Sunday, you'll play a new Nation on 3 maps: 3 normal stadiums (7 points) - we've done away with multilaps. Only possible scores are 3-0 or 2-1. Meet your opponents on IRC, 30min before the match. Players can be changed between the maps, but not during a map.
IRC & meeting: be sure all your players are connected to #ET.TM on quakenet before and after any challenges, so you can decide who host, what are the servers and password names. If your opponent doesnt contact you by the start time, wait 30min and report the situation to the admins. Your TEAM wins 3-0 by forfeit.
Forfeits: A team that doesnt show up at all, A team that have less than 5 players available. A team that arrives more than 30min late will be forfeit ! The other team wins 3-0.
2 Forfeits in a row or 3 forfeits in total = disqualification.
No rescheduling allowed in the Divisions (only allowed from Quarters to Final matches)
Map order: Every week, we will have three maps played in Round mode. More information on this will be added soon!
Server Settings: Use the Team mode, alternative rules. Max points should be set to 10 pts. Be sure you are using a good connection when you host a game. (Or hosting on a dedicated server)
Shortcuts: CAUTION: "Shortcuts are allowed as long as they're taken between 2 CP and in the correct order/way that was meant in the original track".
In game: Always do a few warm-up laps (2 laps at least). If you notice a lag during the warm-up, tell it. You are not supposed to start a round if you experience problems. Once everyone agrees to start the map, the map has to be played until the end. No change of players is allowed when a map is started. If a problem occurs, always take screenshots or replay as a proof and report immediately to an admin.
--------- After the match -----------
Results: The 1st team to 7 points wins the map. All 3 maps have to be played. So the only scores accepted will be 3-0 or 2-1. Report the scores to your admins on IRC as soon as the game is over.
Reports: Players are invited to write a report on the forums after their matchs, sharing their best moments, their points of vue and other screens & replays. It's always a pleasure to read them !
Conflicts: Laming, Cheating, Abusing, Moaning and all other bad attitudes will be stopped right away by kicking the player or the whole team out of the league. Report bad attitudes to Admins. Don't forget to keep replays that could prove your accusations
Admins might change/add rules to improve the leagues at any time
