Basic Guidelines and Rules

General Guidelines:

All applicable CAL rules shall apply.
In order to keep things moving smoothly, each match will be allowed a maximum of one hour to complete. Preparation will be 10 minutes, and a maximum of 5 minutes at half time.
Matches will be 20 minutes per half. At the 10th minute of the hour, you are expected to start your match, with AT LEAST 4 players on each team. Anything less and the match will be forfeited.
Teams will be allowed to restart their match only if a player crashes within the first 3 minutes. If a team caps out, or is on the verge of capping out (one flag left to capture), restarts will not be allowed under any circumstances.

Player Rules:

Using configurations that are not authorized is illegal. This includes rates and other client variables that are not allowed in CAL. Access to the console is not allowed unless supervised.
Recording demos is allowed, and can be recovered at the end of the LAN. More information on this TBA.
Map exploits/boosting/stacking are not allowed, unless a player can physically get there on their own. These will be easily noticeable by everyone in and outside the match.

Match Information:

The first day will consist of GROUP PLAY. Each group will consist of 6-8 teams. This will determine seeds for the following day's single/double elimination tournament. Number of teams for each group and teams advancing will depend on the number of teams that show.
It will be at an admin's discretion to restart a match if there are any technical issues.
Ventrilo will be used for voice communication.
Ties will result in a two-half 10-minute match.

Other Things:

The LAN center cannot host all teams at one point, so please do your part in avoiding unnecessary crowding inside the LAN center. This presents a fire hazard, and could jeopardize the completion of the tournament!
There will be HLTVs set up, and matches/scores/brackets will be set up near the entrance if you are curious about these statuses.
