Tournament rules
The matches must follow the following playing system:
§1 - Group Play
a) There are 6 teams in each group, and the teams only play one match against each other. In the group stage, matches end after full time (90 minutes). The team with the most CPU/bots on the team invites to battle.
b) 3 (three) points are given for a win, 1 (one) point for a draw and 0 (zero) points for a loss.
c) The teams' position is determined by:
1. The score
2. Goal difference
3. Number of goals scored
4. Head to head record
5. Biggest win in the group stage
6. The team that signed up first in the tournament
d) If you end a match before it is finished - equivalent to losing on a walkover - you will automatically lose 3-0 (three-nil) or the result that stood when the match ended.
§2 - Playoffs
a) The teams play only one match against each other. The team with the most CPU/bots on the team invites to a battle.
b) If the result is tied at full-time, extra time and possibly a penalty shoot-out is used to decide who advances to the next round.
§3 - Fair play
a) It is allowed to both play as alle/any and use the CPU players.
b) In round 1 of the group stage, you can request a delay of up to 15 minutes for the start of the match. Starting with round 2, there is a maximum of 10 minutes "call-time". This rule applies unless otherwise notified by a support.
c) If a player on a team loses connection to the game, you can choose to interrupt the game until the tenth (10) minute of play. If the opposing team has scored a goal within the tenth (10) minute of play, the opposing team will lead 1-0 as default from when the match is resumed.
d) If you are in a match and your team has the same kits or has connection problems, you will have until ten (10) minutes of play to stop the match and start over. If the opposing team has scored a goal within the tenth (10) minute of play, the opposing team will lead 1-0 as default from when the match is resumed.
e) Have respect for the opponent. Racism and other hate speech may lead to disqualification and banning from future tournaments. However, there are no rules against delaying time, player(s) behind the wall on a free kick and blocking the goalkeeper on a corner. Gross cynicism is allowed in this tournament.
f) Preferably stream/record all the matches so that you as the accuser can prove cheating/glitching and/or racism.
g) Attempts to cheat can lead to one being kicked out of the current tournament.
§4 - Organizer
a) It is not possible to refund tickets. In some cases, the ticket can be saved/postponed until the next tournament. Contact support in the Discord server if you need to postpone use of the ticket.
b) The prize pool can be changed if the expected number of teams does not occur.
