Note: where a rule references filing a support ticket, unless otherwise stated please file the ticket on the ESL website
Match Rules GÇóEach team may field 6 players at any one time GÇóMatches are played on a Domination map with lowered clone count (80 clones). GÇóIf a player drops while a match is in progress, another player from the roster is allowed to take their place. GÇóVehicles are prohibited. Use of installations (including turrets) is permitted. GÇóAll matches will appear under "Other Contracts" 10 minutes before scheduled start. You will be able to join the battle and be moved to the Warbarge five minutes before the scheduled starting time. There will be a five minute timer in the Warbarge once both teams have had at least one member join, at which point the match will commence. GÇóIf one team does not show up within five minutes of the scheduled start time, they will automatically forfeit the match and the team that did show will be granted an automatic win. GÇóThere are no restrictions on squad arrangements within a team (i.e. you do not need all team members to be in a single squad). GÇóThere are no restrictions on infantry items permitted.
Rosters GÇóPlayers may not join more than one team. GÇóTeams should register their rosters on the ESL website. GÇóMaximum Roster size is 10 characters. This includes any alternate characters used by the same player. GÇóMembers of a team are not required to be in the same corporation or alliance. GÇóCorporations and alliances are not restricted to a single team containing their members. GÇóOnce your team has been submitted and accepted, you are unable to change the roster. If you wish to change the roster before the signups are closed, please file a support ticket. Rosters cannot be changed once team registration has closed.
Prizes GÇóPrizes will be awarded separately for each division GÇóPrizes are as follows: GÇó15 Officer weapons of choice, 30 Quafe Scout dropsuits, 15 mil ISK each GÇó10 Officer weapons of choice, 20 Quafe Scout dropsuits, 10 mil ISK each GÇó5 Officer weapons of choice, 10 Quafe Scout dropsuits, 5 mil ISK each GÇóEach prize will be directly delivered to each team memberGÇÖs inventory. Prizes cannot be redeemed on a character not on the roster, and each character may only receive one prize. GÇóA prize for third place will only be offered if a division contains more than eight teams. GÇóPlayers may only choose a single type of officer weapon for their prize GÇóValid officer weapon choices: oBalac's GAR-21 Assault Rifle oKrin's SIN-11 Assault Rifle oCala's MIK-33 Submachine Gun oBalac's MRN-30 Submachine Gun oGastun's BRN-50 Forge Gun oThale's TAR-07 Sniper Rifle oBalac's N-17 Sniper Rifle oBalac's PCP-30 Scrambler Pistol oGastun's MIN-7 HMG
Format GÇóThe Tournament will be run in three separate divisions based on three rough geographical areas: Americas, Europe and Asia/Pacific GÇóEach division of the tournament will consist of a single elimination format with 3, 4, or 5 rounds depending on team count. This will be finalized for each division after team registration has been closed and schedules are posted. GÇóAny player is eligible to compete in any one region. Region will only dictate on what servers the matches will be held. Players are responsible for picking the best division for their geographical location. GÇóEach round will consist of a best of one, except for the finals which will consist of a best of three. GÇóTeams will be initially randomly seeded. GÇóResults should be reported by both teams on the ESL website. If your opponent does not show or does not submit a result within 15 minutes of the end of the match, please file a support ticket.
Schedule GÇóWhile finalized schedules will not be posted until team registration has closed, the tentative schedule is as follows:
EU - UTC
Saturday, 2nd of November Round 1: 19:00 Round 2: 20:00 Round 3: 21:00
Sunday, 3rd of November Round 4: 19:00 Round 5: 20:00
NA - EDT (UTC-4)
Saturday, 2nd of November Round 1: 19:00 (23:00 UTC) Round 2: 20:00 (00:00 UTC) Round 3: 21:00 (01:00 UTC)
Sunday, 3rd of November Round 4: 19:00 (23:00 UTC) Round 5: 20:00 (00:00 UTC)
ASIA/PACIFIC - UTC+8
Saturday, 2nd of November Round 1: 20:00 (12:00 UTC) Round 2: 21:00 (13:00 UTC) Round 3: 22:00 (14:00 UTC)
Sunday, 3rd of November Round 4: 20:00 (12:00 UTC) Round 5: 21:00 (13:00 UTC)
GÇóThe schedule will be reduced as required if team count is below 16 teams. GÇóIf team count is not even, this may result in a team having a bye. This will be indicated on the schedule as such and in this instance the team with a bye is not required to show as required under the Match Rules.
Maps GÇóMaps will be predetermined and posted with the full schedule. GÇóMap terrain, layouts and boundaries will be drawn from standard Domination pools. GÇóSockets on some maps will be changed from standard for tournament play. Full details will be provided in the schedule. GÇóTest matches to allow the teams to familiarize themselves with the custom socket sets will be provided on the 26th and 27th of October. Further details will be posted closer to this date.
Disciplinary GÇóBreach of these rules may result in immediate disqualification from the tournament, or removal of specific members from team rosters. Teams will not be eligible to nominate alternate replacements in this instance. GÇóAll decisions by ESL and CCP are final.
Please keep all discussion in this thread related to queries and requests for clarifications for the rules. For general tournament discussion, please post in the announcement thread. CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites // Patron Saint of Logistics

No vehicles. That includes as you described, people using dropships to take rooftops. And this we can very easily see if we look at the logs.
Turrets however are fine. CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites // Patron Saint of Logistics

So if you were to win this prize tier, would you get each of those prizes? Or would you have to pick one of the three?
All of them. You would pick a single type of officer weapon, and you would receive 15 of that particular officer weapon in addition to the dropsuits and the ISK. Every member of your roster would get this. CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites // Patron Saint of Logistics

DJINN Marauder wrote:Every member would get different officer weapons if they chose so correct?
Also with regards to the Balacs Scrambler Pistol, did you mean Wolfmans?
Yes, everyone gets their own choice. But each member can only choose one type. (so they get 15x Balac's ARs, not 5 Balac's ARs and 10x Thale's Sniper)
And yes, it seems the list I pulled them from was lying to me - they are Wolfman's. I'll fix that. CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites // Patron Saint of Logistics

I have removed several off-topic posts. Please remember this thread is only for queries related to the rules. General discussion about the tournament should be taking place in the announcement thread.
To answer two questions: The dropsuits are Quafe gk.0 Scout suits. The rules have been amended to clarify this The Asia/Pacific matches will be hosted in Asia. CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites // Patron Saint of Logistics

UTC is effectively equal to GMT (there's some differences, but for most practical purposes they're the same thing to people.) CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites // Patron Saint of Logistics

Once you've signed up on the ESL website, click "Teams" at the top of the page on the left hand side (or click this link).

...I'm going to say yes. so long as the people you use are all on the roster and you don't go over 6 people on your team at once, you can drop in and out. CCP Logibro // EVE Universe Community Team // Distributor of Nanites // Patron Saint of Logistics

Salvage, yes Isk, no Eh, so if playing 5 rounds, dying on average 10 times each match in a 200k suit means you will spend about 10 million ISK on the tourney. The winner gets 15 million ISK, which would only mean a 5 million ISK reward as you spent the other 10 on the tourney. What salvage system will be used though? The system used in pubs, or the one used in PC? If it's the system used in PC it might reduce the ISK loss in the matches a fair bit, but you'll still lose a good amount of ISK on the tourney. Personally I couldn't care less about ISK, but to me it just isn't right that a tourney winner walks away with such a small amount. About the prizes in general, I still think they're very lackluster and they're certainly not a reason for why I'm participating in the tourney. I know you guys keep saying that it's a small tourney and that there will be bigger tourneys with bigger prizes in the futture, but this is a tourney after all and I just feel that there should be prizes to follow a proper tourney. Personally I think the rewards should be more like: 50 copies of 1 officer weapon of choice OR 15 copies of 3 officer weapons of choice. 50 or 100 million ISK. 30 Quafe suits (as it already is. I feel this one is probably fine, maybe an increase to 50 suits wouldn't hurt though). These prizes would be more worthwhile and actually fitting for even a winner of a small tourney. All of this is just my own opinion of course.
Salvage is the same as PC matches, so based upon items that drop.

Yes, you will start on Impact Ridge.
Time on the ESL site for me is showing 20:00. You might want to check your time zone settings on the site.

Rubber banding and the hit detection went out the window. Trying to compete like that is bullshit. I understand that an Oceania only tournament would have like 2 teams but if you're going to put us with Asia at least make it an Asian server.
All the Asia/Pacific matches are being run on the Asia servers. However some ISPs route packets to Asia via the US, so that might be why you have a higher ping.

M.H.N.W Did not receive salvage from our battle Onslaught 2. We Won.
Also G.A.C. may have forfeited to M.H.M.S by not meeting the 5 Min attendance time.
the 5min rule is 5 minutes after the scheduled start time (so xx:05), not 5 minutes after the warbarge opens (which is 10 minutes before scheduled start time).
