Tournament Rules
+ Show Spoiler +
1. Tournament Race - All players must use only one race throughout the tournament. Random is allowed.
2. Private Messages Blocking - Some players use the feature that disallows other people to send them a private message unless they're on the Friends list. Please make sure you turn this off before the tournament begins to enable admins and your opponents to contact you.
3. Match Beginning – After the tournament begins, players may continue playing rounds as the bracket updates. If your opponent does not show or is unresponsive, please report him to an admin and wait for 15 minutes. If he fails to response after this period of time, he will then be disqualified immediately. However, you may be chosen to get featured on our stream, in which case you are obliged to wait until your admin gives you the green light to proceed.
4. Observers – Other players may observe tournament games provided both participants allow it. If lag issues arise, all observers must leave the game. Staff Members or Casting Partners of SCV Rush may observe any match at any time.
5. Replays - All replays must be saved by both players for possible future investigation. Failure to comply the first time will result in a warning. A second failure will result in disqualification. By default, replays are not uploaded anywhere.
6. Disconnects - If a player disconnects within the first 5 minutes, the game will be restarted. After 5 minutes, the disconnected player forfeits the game. If there are any objections to this rule (a player was the decided victor before 5 minutes, for example) players may contact a tournament admin, who will review the replay and determine whether a regame will be played. However, this exception may be applied only once during a round.
7. Stalemates - In the event of a stalemate, the game will be replayed. The full in-game stalemate timer must elapse before players may start a regame.
8. Manner – In-game chat should be limited to the initial good luck, and then good game, expressions. You can of course chat besides that, but after one player expresses the wish to concentrate on the game, the other one must comply. Any communication containing hateful, racial, sexual or otherwise offending content will result in a warning; failure to rectify the bad manner will then result in disqualification. The tournament admins reserve the right to judge what is offensive and what is not.
9. Stream Cheating, Hacking, Illegal Advantages - Players may stream their games if they wish. However, any player abusing an illegal advantage over his opponent will be instantly disqualified from the current event and banned from two future SCV Rush events. The tournament admins reserve the right to decide what determines this illegal practice.
10. Check Your Opponent's Race - We've had a large number of cases recently where players entered the tournament without being in an appropriate league (e.g. Bronze players tried to play in Plat/Dia). The easiest way to fix it is you checking your opponent's profile before you begin to play and if you see a wrong league, contact the tour administrator immediately.
11. The Tournament Must Flow - In order to pull this event off in a reasonable amount of time for all people involved, we ask for your 100 % focus on our event. Please limit stepping away from your computer as much as possible and even if it seems there's plenty of time before your next game, check regularly if that's really the case. We will strictly adhere to the **5 minutes** of waiting time with certain exceptions (such as a player telling the admins he's stepping away for a while when it seems reasonable he won't be needed in his absence).
If you run out of time while you advance through the brackets, you will unfortunately be disqualified; no postponing is possible.
