TOURNAMENT RULES

Competition Mode: Use Map Settings unless otherwise specified

Race Selection: Free Choice, Random is allowed.

Game Speed: Fastest

Maps: Fighting Spirit, Match Point, Polaris Rhapsody, Grand Line, Aztec

These maps will be available soon for download here.

*The WGF committee may modify this map choice at any time. Players will be informed before the tournament of any such modifications.



Procedure of map choice for best of 3 matches: Player A and B will be decided by coin toss, with Player A being the winner. Player A removes one of the maps, player B removes one map, and player B thumbs down one of the remaining maps, that map will be used for the third match if necessary. Player A than picks the map for the first match.



Procedure of map choice for best of 5 matches: Player A and B will be decided by coin toss, Player A thumbs down one map, that map will be used fourth, Player B thumbs down one map, that map will be fifth. Then player A picks the starting map, and player B picks the second. The remaining map will be used 3rd.

After the match is over, the players must save the replay file and allow a tournament official to check the match results. If the replay file is not saved, the player may be given a warning or lose by default at the tournament director’s sole discretion.





ADDITIONAL RULES

+ Show Spoiler + Players must sign-up with their real name and show ID at check-in. WGF reserves the right to not allow a player to sign up for the tournament if the player refuses to show ID. A player may use any in-game screen name he or she wishes as long as he or she has shown ID at check-in.



Players must bring their own computer to play on. There will not be computers provided at the event. Please have StarCraft®: Brood War™ installed and updated to the latest patch (1.16.1) before the event begins. Please also have the required maps installed—if it is not understood how to install the maps, a tournament official will provide assistance at the event.



Players are expected to arrive on time. Players that arrive more than 15 minutes late for the start of the qualifying and final rounds will be seen as forfeit. Players that do not appear within 5 minutes of a scheduled match will be given a warning or a loss.



Players are expected to have manners, and any inappropriate behavior, as decided by the tournament master, can result in disqualification.



Any attempt to cheat will result in disqualification. This includes but is not limited to intentionally viewing the other player's screen, map hacking, intentional disconnection of the game, or unauthorized plug-ins.



If there is no battle for a certain amount of time during the match and the winner cannot be decided clearly after the time limit is up, the winner will be determined by the highest overall score.



Match Winner is determined by the following:

The player who destroys all the opposition’s buildings

The opposing player surrenders

The highest overall score at the end of the time limit



Players are not allowed to pause during the game unless it is due to technical difficulties or disturbances. Any other reason for pausing can result in a warning or loss. If the game is paused, it will only be started under the consensus of both players. If a player starts the game without the approval of the other player, a tournament official may decide on a warning or a loss.



WGF may join as an observer for tournament operations purposes, such as verifying match results or gathering match data.



Participants of event must be over the age of 18 or approved by parent or guardian.

By participating in the event, you are agreeing to all aspects of these rules.

When any disconnection occurs:



1) If disconnection occurs within 3 minutes of start of match: Match Restart

2) If disconnection occurs after 3 minutes of start of match:

If both players agree to a match restart, the match will be restarted. However, time limit will not be reset. If the players cannot reach an agreement, the winner will be determined by a tournament official after analysis of the match replay file or by the final score at the moment of disconnection.



Penalty for Unfair Play

Unfair Play

1) Use of any map hack program

2) Intentional disconnection

3) Use of any settings exceeding standard and permitted settings

4) Any unnecessary chatting during the match.

5) If a tournament official decides that external conditions (Press, Player, Spectator, etc) gave an unfair advantage to a player, the player may be given a warning or loss by default at the tournament director’s sole discretion.



Upon discovery of any player committing any violations regarded as unfair play, that player will be disqualified from the tournament.



During the course of any match, the tournament officials and/or tournament master may determine other actions to be unfair play at any time.
