PLAYING ON ICCUP'S LADDER

- You must have the latest version of StarCraft installed.
- You must add the Abyss gateway into your registry.
- Ladder games must be played on the official iCCup maps.
- Ladder games MUST be played on One on One mode (for 1v1) and Top vs Bottom mode (for 2v2), otherwise they will not count.
- When playing a 2v2, make sure to use "/ally *partner*" and make sure that your partner uses "/ok". Without these commands, your game might not be reported correctly.
- Games played on certain maps, called Maps of the Week (MOTW), earn the winner 130% of the points. You will not get this bonus if you are not using the iCCup Antihack Launcher.
- The Launcher is optional. You can see who is running the Launcher in the channel and the pre-game lobby.
- If you decide to play against a user who is not running the Launcher, you are responsible for the risk of unfair play. We do NOT review hack accusations unless you provide screenshots proving that the Launcher disconnected your opponent for a hack attempt.
- The launcher prevents the use of hacks, it is not 100% safe but it is very hard to bypass. If you are going to accuse someone of using maphack, please watch the replay a couple of times first and be confident of your accusation.

ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT
- You are allowed to transfer your stats from one account to another once weekly. You can do this by typing "/transfer *newaccount*" from your old one, but you must first pass an IP/owner check by logging in to the new account at least once.
- You are allowed to reset your own stats once weekly. You can do this by typing "/clearstats YES". You cannot reset your 1v1 or your 2v2 stats separately.
- Offensive accounts (examples: "ICCUPsucks", "ADMINgay", "fuckUSER") are not allowed, and will be deleted.
- Administrators CANNOT reverse bad transfers or resets. Be careful to transfer stats FROM the old account TO the new one, and reset only if you are certain that you will not regret it.

(Please Note: If you do /clearstats YES or /transfer NEWACCOUNT you can not do either one of them for another week. They share the same time limit, if you do one you cannot do the other.)

HOW TO COMPLAIN

- If the server has recorded your match, go to your matchlist on the site, and find the game. Then make a complaint for it with the option next to it, and upload the replay.
- If the server has not recorded your match, you must post in the Complaints Forum with the required information (ranks before the game and the replay).
- Be sure to read THIS before posting a forum complaint.
- Ladder Admins are not allowed to help you through our gaming server. Your problem has to be public, so that another admin may take a look at it if there is a problem with the original decision.
- If you disagree with an admin's decision, or find him misbehaving, post in the Complaint about an Admin forum.
- You can only post a complaint about a game if you played the game on the same account.
- You may not post complaints with fake replays. Such behaviour will be punished with a 2 week lock.
- Only players DIRECTLY involved with the case (and admins) may post in that forum. Other posts are treated as spam, and are punished with a 1 week lock. The same applies for insulting or disrespecting a user or an administrator.

BUGS

Not allowed to use:
- Flying drones and templars
- Terran sliding buildings
- A bug which allows your units to remain stacked while moving/attacking
- Allied mines
- Intentional dropping lurker and SCV – defined by referee
- Observer over turret
- Drone "Gas walk" to get through blocked entrances


o.O

I don't want to get a 1 week lock for drone drilling :-(

Theres a difference between gas bug and drone drilling. Drone drilling can be used by clicking on a geyser or mineral patch and simply walking through everything. Gas bug can be used to float up a ramp without you having any vision of the upper ground, or to attack with as many stacked scvs as you want, and they will never unstack.

This has been talked about several times before.

EDIT: http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=75219 here is a gas stacking replay.

When go.go was a faggot and won a game due to that and even bragged about it later on? Back then, it was legit. It got banned after that.

edit: clarity
Complete the cycle!

Here's a good rule: if you don't know how to do it, you probably won't end up doing it on accident

Still a different bug, lol.

There are three ways to drill. The gas bug way (illegal), the cccc spam way (illegal), and the regular mineral/gas click way (legal). go.go was famous for using the second way when it was legal.

How horrible a person must be for using a legal bug D:

This particular type of stacking has been banned for about forever. I remember it being banned in PGT as well.

Drone drilling is fine. They are talking about filling the que by shift+clicking on gas to walk past a ramp I think.

Those refer to bugs that can cause Starcraft to crash/drop your opponent, like this. You can still "drop" any unit you want from a dropship, etc. in the game.

For scv it's using the build trick to drop it over a cliff to do something like take an expo easier on python say.
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.
