So this is now a thing. I find the restrictions really weird, and although they're not set in stone and you can request approval for not abiding by them, I'm not sure why they exist. Each tournament will be limited to no more than five hundred (500) participants. The duration of the tournament will be no longer than five (5) sequential days. | ||

I suppose it might be in the case where they need to give them temporary steam accounts. | ||
