Teams have 5 minutes between each map/game mode. If a team/player goes over this grace period, please follow the above steps for support.

For game modes that are not kill dependent, teams may only play shorthanded by one player. Any missing player may join the private match lobby at any time.

No warm-up or practice Games are permitted once the first tournament match has begun. If a match is played before the scheduled time, it will not be considered a warm-up and will count as the official scores.

Third party communication is allowed for this tournament. (i.e skype, TeamSpeak, Party Chat, etc.). However, players must be able to communicate with any staff member that joins the lobby.

Players not on any of the teams’ rosters should not be allowed into the private match lobby at any time. If a player not listed on a team’s roster joins the match and disrupts the game play or does not leave in a timely manner, the host should end the game.

If a player lags out during the first 30 second or before the first kill the map or round, the game should be ended and restarted for all game modes.
The team who lost the player should either leave the game, switch to spectator mode, or end the game if that team is host.
For Search and Destroy, the map should be resumed from the scores prior to the player losing connection to the private match lobby.

If a player lags out after the first 30 seconds and/or after the first kill, the match must continue.

In Search and Destroy, picking up and/or defusing the bomb through a solid object will be considered abuse of in-game mechanics.

Hosting
Hosting refers to the team that creates a Private match lobby. The team “hosts” the Map by creating the Private match lobby and creating the custom game in accordance with the information on the match page and this rules page. On many games, the individual player that created the room also often hosts the game on his/her connection. On other games, the connection is hosted by in-game servers. Please note that the use of the term “Host” below applies to the individual that creates the Custom Game Lobby.

In a best of 3 and best of 5 series, the higher seeded team must host the first Map. The lower seeded team must choose sides on the first Map. Then, the lower seeded team must host the second Map. The higher seeded team must choose sides on the second Map. This will alternate until a tie breaker is required. The team with the highest overall score will host the tiebreaker map.
For Search and Destroy, the team with the highest round count will host the final map. The non-hosting team will choose which side to start on.

All players must agree that the Host is reasonable before the start of a Map. If a reasonable Host cannot be found, we will help decide who will host the map. If we are not available, the best Host should be used.
We highly suggest that a lag test be performed before the start of each map. If a lag test is not performed, it will be implied that all players agree the host is acceptable to play on.

Once gameplay has begun, the host may not end the game. The only exception is if a player lags out/loses connection to the server(refer to rules 6 and 7 under gameplay) or if an outside player joins and disrupts the match.

Penalties
Settings:
For Search and Destroy, the hosting team will forfeit all rounds where the incorrect setting(s) affected the game.
For all other game modes, the hosting team will forfeit the entire map if the incorrect setting(s) affected the game.
If a map is hosted out of order, the hosting team forfeit the map that was played out of order.
In example, if Biolab is second map and played first, the hosting team will forfeit Biolab. First map will need to be played.

Restricted Items:
For Search and Destroy, use of any restricted item will result in the loss of the round(s) the item(s) were used in if it affected game play.
For all other game modes, use of any restricted item will result in the loss of the entire map if it affected game play.
