Other Tournament Rules (alphabetically):

• Cheating - Do not attempt to stream cheat, maphack or use any other method of gaining an unfair advantage.

• Disconnects - If a player disconnects the game will be continued using the "Resume from replay" option in the game. If the disconnecting player does not return after 15 minutes, they may forfeit the match. Players seen watching replays while waiting for another player to return will forfeit that match.

• Laddering - No Laddering During Tournaments. Ladder at your own risk - if your next game is ready, you must end your ladder game immediately to play. Manner – Be polite to everyone around you - use common sense to determine what you should or should not say.

•  Opponent missing - If your opponent does not show up or is unresponsive, please report him to an admin and wait for 15 minutes. If he fails to respond after this period of time, he will then be disqualified. 

• Private Messages Blocking - Some players use the feature that prevents other people from sending 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.

• Race - Players must keep their race during a series, but are free to change their race throughout the tournament.

• Stalemates & Ties - In the event of a stalemate, the game will be replayed. The game can be tied by both player agreeing to a tie in chat, or the in-game stalemate timer.

• Stream - If you are chosen to be shown on stream, please wait with your game until the casters are ready.

• Streaming - We would prefer that players watch our stream  rather than stream themselves. If you do wish to stream, please make sure you have at least 3 minutes of delay. Games chosen for streaming on the main stream must delay their match till the streamers arrive.
