Giving us only 3 days notice for a new date seems like a really bad idea.

I'd prefer the 5th, the 20th, or some later date for this tournament(in that order).. but really 2-3 days notice seems really shitty...

Apologies, misread the message I was sent. It's actually Saturday the 5th (editing message to reflect this)
I've had no power all day and I'm writing this while casting CSL because I'm trying to play catch specifically due to time sensitivity.

E: The date change being reverted is a very positive thing for attendance imo, thanks dear frnds at Blizzard (now if only you'd give me Overwatch access already...)

Many teams were already planning to play on the 5th, so I think reverting to this date was the right call. Thank you

I understand that line of thinking completely Basetrade; however, I offer an alternative way of thinking in order to possibly alleviate any doubt! The display of extremely high-level play versus that of average play is far more entertaining. With the date being reverted back to the 5th, the pro teams will now be able to compete which will display much higher level of play... rather than an average level of play which could possibly turn casuals off. Regardless, the tournament will be hella fun! Thanks and cya then!

This really sucks. I'd take 20th dec over 5th a 100 times simply because of the viewership...

Any rulings if someone disconnects the game? Remake possible? 3v4?

Also any rules on pauses? In ZHL we have a 60-second total pause timer (can pause twice for 30 seconds, etc) and if a team goes over that then the opposing team can just unpause.

Im confused, the bracket is out but teams can still sign up? Does that mean all teams signing up now will automatically get into 2nd round or will it be rerolled when signup is complete?

I also was wondering about any disconnect rules we could put into place because dc's are pretty common within ZH and can maybe even be intentionally caused by other players in the game. Since ZH has built in features to make a remake game quickly and easily (options to change the time, period and score of the game to how it was before the dc) i dont see why we cant have a remake or two if player(s) disconnect. Maybe if the problem persists for more than 1 or 2 games then the lagging team will get a loss. in ZHL we can remake just because someone is having some lag issues but i think it would be better for this tournament to remake only in the event of disconnects. seems unfortunate for a team to get a loss because of a dc and having to play without an essential teammate. remaking doesnt take long to do and would give the most fair opportunities for competition without causing the production to slow down much at all.

Brackets are not set, it's just a random list of sign ups. Bracket will be randomized and set at the start time (10:00 AM PST)

We are given an option to have a 5th skater, in case such as these. If someone drops before the game starts, a remake may be applicable.
