Additional Rules & Information
+ Show Spoiler +

Maps
================

•All matches must be started on the map listed on the player bracket above the current round being played.
•In a 'best of X' series, the loser chooses the next map to play from the map pool.
+ Show Spoiler +
NA Map Pool:
+ Show Spoiler +
GSL_Calm before the storm, MLG Metalopolis, MLG Shakuras Plateau, MLG Shattered Temple. MLG Antiga Shipyard, GSL Tal’Darim Altar LE (by BalphEubank), GSL Xel’Naga Fortress (Official), GSL Terminus RE, GSL Dual Sight (by MildCocoA), GSL Daybreak (by Ayaka)


EU Map Pool:
+ Show Spoiler +
GSL_Calm before the storm, MLG Metalopolis, ESL Shakuras Plateau, MLG Shattered Temple, MLG Tal'Darim Altar, MLG Antiga Shipyard, GSL Xel’Naga Fortress, GSL Dual Sight, GSL Daybreak (Official)

•All maps played on must be the exact name shown, letter for letter, no exceptions.
•If your opponent hosted on the incorrect map it's your responsibility to leave the game at once and contact an admin. Failure to do so may result in the game being counted even though it's not the correct map.
•Each map in the pool may be played once per series. Maps may not be vetoed by either player.


No-Shows
================

•All players should make an effort to be in one of the Playhem sc2 channels (Playhem, Playhem2..) when they are participating in a tournament, however this is not mandatory.
•Should your opponent be missing, you must attempt to add them to your friends list by the character code on the bracket and message them, if they are unresponsive or offline you may contact an admin according to the following:
•If your opponent is offline/unresponsive for 15 minutes after the start of the tournament OR 10 minutes after you were due to face them in any later round after the tournament began you may report a no-show to a tournament admin and be advanced.
•Reporting false no-shows in an attempt to get a free win, or not taking the appropriate measures listed above may result in disqualification from the tournament.
•Some exceptions may be made for players that are forced to delay their games and ask for an extension before hand so long as it's within a reasonable time frame, players should try their best to accommodate the other person if possible.



Observers & Casters
================

•All Playhem Admins and official streamers MUST be permitted into your game if they request it, failure to comply with official streamers and admins of playhem may result in immediate forfeit.
•If you are unsure if a caster is an official member of Playhem, you should contact an admin to ask at once. Official casters will generally be accompanied by the account "PlayhemTV".
•Observers are permitted in games as long as you have the consent from both players in the game.
•A player may ask an observer to leave the game at any time for any reason (suspicion of cheating, lag, etc).
•If a game is started with an observer that you did not want to permit in the game, you should leave the game immediately at the start and ask for a regame.
•Failure to remove an observer from a lobby when another player requests it may constitute a technical no-show as the other player may refuse to play the game.
•In the event that you permit a non-official caster or observer into your game, you do so at your own risk and waive any right to dispute the game outcome due to stream/observer cheating.



Smurfing & Leagues
================

•If an admin determines that you own an account that is of a higher league than the tournament you are playing in, or that you were previously in a higher league, you may be immediately forfeited from the tournament and/or banned from the site.
•If you are consistently winning a low league tournament, or haven't been promoted due to Starcraft II's MMR system, you may be asked to not play in any further tournaments until you are promoted to the next highest league bracket.
•An exception to this is the Open tournament, players of any league may participate and use any account regardless of their main account's ranking.
•In the event that you suspect your opponent to be a smurf, you can report your opponent to an admin after playing all the games of your series (unless there is substantial and obvious evidence).
•If an admin disagrees with your report, we ask that you respect the decision and accept it as a loss. We will do our best to catch any and all smurfs but we stand by "innocent until proven guilty" and go to great lengths to not ban innocent players, even if they are suspicious. Please keep in mind that in a tournament, there are bound to be players that are simply better than you.
•In the event that you are playing on a secondary or new account, an admin may ask you to provide a profile link to your main account for review. Failure to comply may result in disqualification if you are under suspect of smurfing.



Disconnects
================

•Disconnects in most cases will count as an immediate loss within the criteria outlined below:
•If the disconnect happened in the first 4 minutes of the game and no contact between the two players has been made (scouting, cheese, etc) then the game should be replayed. Once a player has scouted their opponent, disconnects will count as a loss.
-Scouting constitutes vision of any portion of the opponents base/units/structures/spawning location. In the event of one player being random, indication of their race also counts as being scouted.
•If it's obvious that your victory was imminent and definitive before the disconnect happened (ie. you were finishing off his base and he had no army left), contact an admin immediately and a decision will be made on a case-by-case basis.
•The player who did not disconnect may offer a rematch after any disconnect at their own discretion, this is NOT mandatory and entirely up to the player to decide.
•If a disconnected player does not return to battle.net within 5 minutes, you may report him to an admin as a no-show and get a walk-over for the remaining game(s) of the series if applicable.


Misc
================

•In the event of a stalemate game / tie, the game will not count as a win for either player and should be replayed on the same map.


Disclaimer:

Any admin can overturn or supersede these rules at our sole discretion, this will typically not be done except for extraordinary circumstances. If you disagree with any admin's ruling you may politely argue your case and ask it to be reviewed by another admin. These rules may be changed/updated at any time without notice, check back frequently to stay up to date on current rules.

It's going to be awesome. Remember to sign up early, else you might not get to sign up at all! Don't forget to check-in as well!

Speculation question: Think any huge names will randomly appear? Let me know in the comments >=o!

Very tough time to organize this tournament, with so many players over in Sweden for Dreamhack, but should hopefully still see some great players sign up!

Yeah been talking to a lot of the korean teams. They usually dont know about most of the tournaments as only few of them really follow all the threads on TL. Itll be a pretty cool lineup, especially as the starting time of the tournament is not all that bad for korea (starts like 6am KST).

Really looking forward to the cast! :D

Good of you to tell the korean teams. I get the feeling that most of the Koreans who find out about these tournaments decide to keep it to themselves to stand a better chance of winning :p

Just want to point something out. On the NA and EU map pools, you put just "Antiga Shipyard" instead of "MLG Antiga Shipyard" in the spoiler.

That may throw some people off, as the official map listed in the tournament is the MLG version of Antiga.

Hey good call man. We were originally using the Blizzard version and I guess I forgot to change these, thanks for noticing that =D I also noticed something else in the map pool that hadn't been updated:

Xel'Naga Caverns is no longer in the map pool!

GSL_Calm before the storm IS now in the map pool ^_^



Also, Khaldor will be helping cover this event alongside PlayhemTV =)

Looks sick! Best of luck guys !
In order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure.
