MAP ROTATION



We are trying something new this time around for this tournament regarding the map rotation. Each round of the tournament is provided with 3 map choices. For each matchup, each team will choose one map that they do not want to play. After two maps are eliminated, the remaining map is the one that the match will be played on.



Round

Available Maps



Round 1

Laboratory, Metro, Hakenkreuz



Round 2

Nightfall, Bio Facility, Complex



Semi Finals

Prison, Laboratory, Tranquility



Finals

Hakenkreuz, Complex, Bio Facility












UK VERSUS NA MATCHES
In the event that the seeding results in a matchup where a North American team is playing against an United Kingdom / European team, the matches will have to be played on both servers. It's a time consuming endeavor but the only one that is fair under the circumstances. The scores will be tallied up and the winning team annouced depending on the results. These matches will be played immediately one after another. Same map, same rules.

DISQUALIFICATION CRITERIA
  • You have approximately 10 minutes to show and be ready for your match otherwise you will be declared a no-show and will be declared forfeit from your match, following that you will automatically fall into the losers bracket where, if you fail to show again, another forfeit will be inevitable and you will fail the tournament. So please show up!
  • In the event of you breaking any given rule, you will be given a first warning, followed by a second warning on the second occurrence of the offense and finally a disqualification following the third occurrence of the offense. This number is not specific to just one offense, i.e, breaking the rule same rule three times; if you break any of the given rules consecutively three times, you are disqualified.
  • In the event of a disconnection you are given approximately 3 minutes (180 seconds) to get back into the room and continue the game; in the event that you fail to come back online, it will be assumed you forfeit from the tournament and your opposition will automatically be awarded a win and proceed to the next round.
  • The use of macros, hacks and glitches of any nature will result in an automatic disqualification and being reported to the CrossFire Support.


RESCHEDULING YOUR MATCH

In the event that you/your team is unable to attend your match, please notify the administrating staff of the tournament immediately. Additionally, to reschedule your match, your opposition must also agree to rescheduling and a new date and time will be chosen to the compliance of both parties. In the case that the other party does not agree to reschedule, our hands are tied and there is little that can be done. The date, time and schedule for the tournament are placed beforehand and it is your responsibility to see that it matches with your own schedule.

ANTI-CHEAT

Yes, we are going to be using an anti-cheat in this tournament to avoid any foul play. The anti-cheat in question we will be using is MOSS. It is in everyones best interest to visit the website and do a quick read about the anti-cheat so we can all be on the same page regarding it's use and how to actually get it running. You can download moss using this direct link.

TIE BREAKER

In the unlikely event of a tie breaker, one additional game of five rounds will be played with the winner of this game moving on in the bracket. That being said, this will be a one versus one battle. Each team will nominate their strongest player to participate in this match. Planting is allowed but camping / waiting out the clock is not. In the event that the matchup is of UK vs NA, the same match will be played in both servers with the results being tallied. It is in your best interest to not let the game come to a tie.








OVERSEERS

Please note that we are currently looking for additional overseer to help manage and organize this tournament, if you are interested please drop me a direct message on Discord or send me a private message here on the forums. It goes without saying that the ideal overseer would be one who knows Ghost Mode inside out and can devote their time to the tournament. Thank you.


STREAM

To avoid ghosting and other issues, spectating is disallowed but a stream with a slight delay will be available. This area will be updated when we find a suitable commentator and streamer.

Current Streamers:

If you would like to also stream or would be interested in doing co-commentary please let us know by contacting us through PM on either the forums or the discord channel.

The Discord Channel Join the #general lobby. Everything is managed and organized through the Discord channel.


Do I need a mic?

Not a requirement but it definitely helps and improves the communication between you and the overseer. Plus don't you want to communicate with your partner?


How long will the tournament last?

Depends on the number of games played each day but we hope to wrap up the tournament within a day.


When will we get our rewards?

Will only one game be played a time?

No, unfortunately to help speed up the tournament, two to three games will be run concurrently each handled by a separate overseer. The most anticipated matches will be streamed. We're limited on the quantity and quality of our streamers.

We are following the P.U.G. rulesets, please take a look at what's available by visiting the thread.


Are we allowed to have subs?

There will be no subs, similar to how we had our 1vs1 and 2vs2. If one (or two) of your team mates are unable to make it to the match. You are free to play with what remains of your team against the odds. Good luck.


I saw the schedule post below but how do I know what match number my match is?

Refer to this bracket layout. Look at the number preceded each matchup. That is your match number.
