TIMERS:
The host is responsible for the timer in each round.
This can be via a stopwatch, tourney clock,
an app downloaded to the computer.
As long as minutes and seconds are used.
Player can run their own timer but remember,
the only timer that counts is the one the host runs.
As a courtesy to players, (its not a rule),
the host can announce a 5 minute countdown
in lobby to end of game.
Please do not tell the host that their timer is wrong.
RESTARTS:
This really isn't new.
Restarts will not be allowed
except if game settings are wrong.
This is actually written into a lot of the games.
If you do or do not do something
required in that game’s specific rules,
you must report the loss.
If game settings are correct
and a player makes a mistake, they must report.
And no chatter in the lobby about that
player or team only wanting a win.
This rule has been there the whole time.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Reminding everyone about how we handle
disputes during game play
and our expectations of player behavior:
Hosts follow a set of rules for running tournaments.
The rules are posted on our front page
and under Rules tab.
Hosts are volunteering their time
to run tournaments for our players.
You are not allowed to argue and cause disruptions
in chat during a tournament.
If you have an issue with a how a host
handled something or think something was unfair,
you may click on the Support Tab on our
main page and send in your grievance.
It comes directly to the leadership team.
We will review and respond.
In most cases the host will be supported
in their final decision because
they are the ones doing the work.
Please do not send in something silly.
Players, DO NOT message and argue with hosts
during a tournament, nor in lobby.
It gets nowhere, is considered an
offense and you will get a warning.
On the third warning you will
be timed out for three days.
If you persist after that you can be permanently banned.
It is imperative that we keep the hosts we have,
especially hard-working hosts.
If you do not care for a host,
then do not join their tournament.
There will be hosts or players you do not enjoy
but that is your choice whether you play or not.
Hosts have the choice as well,
if a player is constantly making their hosting miserable,
they can remove them from the tournament,
or worse for all of us, choose not to host.
