Rules

GeneralA. NO CHEATING!We want everyone to have fun playing in a fair environment. Therefore, DSG has a very strict policy against cheaters. We don’t hold you accountable for past actions, but if caught cheating with us you will immediately be banned from all DSG tournaments and events for a duration that is at the discretion of the DSG staff but will be no less than 6 months. Subsequent offenses will result in longer bans.B. Player IdentityUpon registration, you will be asked for your current steam account ID. To find this, use the website http://steamidfinder.com/. . We use and store your steam ID in an effort to punish cheaters and rule breakers. If your steam ID submitted during registration does not agree with the steam account competing, you will be automatically disqualified and the account will be banned from future tournaments.C. Language & SportsmanshipTrash talk is fun and it can add to any game. We don’t mind swearing or general trolling at all. However, we ask that you avoid using racial and derogatory slurs. If you violate this rule a staff member will ask you to please ease off. If you listen to them all is good, we all slip and say things we shouldn’t sometimes, it’s not a huge deal. But if you ignore a staff member or if it becomes a problem, you will start receiving mutes and eventually short bans.There are two reasons we ask this and it’s not to be speech Nazis or to be prudes.1. We want to create a non-toxic environment for people to come and have fun.2. We often record/stream our games and we would like to keep those videos free of slurs and derogatory comments.Please keep in mind we have players of all skill levels in our discord. Be understanding of people that aren’t as good at the game as yourself. Teaching is helpful don’t berate people or harass them for being bad.Rocket LeagueA. Standard Rocket League 1v1 rules will be used. It should be just like queuing in a ranked 1v1 game.B. A double elimination bracket will be used for this tournament. While seeding is random, any bye will be issued to the player(s) with the most hours. This seems to us to be the fairest and quickest way to determine who should receive byes for the first round.*DSG reserves the right to modify the tournament format if need to handle more participants. You will be notified if any changes are made.*C. To keep things moving quickly, up to 3 games will be played simultaneously. These games will be streamed on twitch so you can follow along and watch your competition.D. It is your responsibility to be ready for your next game. You will have a five-minute grace period to join your match. After those 5 minutes, you will receive a LOSS and we will move to the next game. To avoid this, please remain in the Rocket League General voice lobby so we can quickly contact you.E. All games will be played on an east coast server. (This is just by nature of us living on the east coast) We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
