TF2 6v6 Rules Options

[SirSquidness]

These will be the rules used for TF2 6v6 at v16 and future events, unless otherwise noted

Respawn’s Team Fortress 2 Competition will be based upon the Oz Fortress Winter League Rule Set, with modifications to the structure to fit.

See http://www.ozfortress.com/showthread.php?t=35266 for the original rule set.

Changes from the OWL:SE Rule Set:
These changes are in addition to the rule set, and where there are conflicts, these rules take precedence.

Section 1
• The tournament will be run in a double elimination format.
  Section 2
• All teams must register before 10 minutes prior to the scheduled start of the event
• If team wishes to withdraw, they must inform the competition organiser as soon as humanly possible.
• Players are allowed to be substituted with other paying attendees as long as they are not already in another TF2 team at the event.
  Section 3
• Match times and maps will be dictated by competition organisers.
• Forfeits will count as a loss.
• A forfeit will be forced if:
• - A team does not present themselves to the competition organiser within a certain time frame (10 minutes and two calls using the notifier application available at the LAN or the PA system) when requested
• -A team does not connect to a server in a reasonable time frame (10 minutes and two calls using the notifier application available at the LAN or the PA system)
• -A team cannot find all six of their players within a reasonable time frame
• Team are allowed to play for 5 minutes missing up to one of their members before being forced to forfeit
• -A team leaves the match before it has been won for non-technical reasons (If there is a network or power drop, the opposing team should pause the server and wait for them to rejoin - teams should consult with the organisers if they would like a rematch)

• Spectating is only allowed through SourceTV.
• Draws are not allowed.
