Rules
Dropping Rules
If a player disconnects, the game will be resumed.
If the game cannot be resumed we will try to view the recorded game. If one team was going to win without any doubt they will be awarded the win. If there was no obvious winner then the game will be replayed with the same civilizations and spots.
If the same player constantly disconnects, their team will forfeit and the other team will progress to the next round. The exception to this rule is if the tournament has not progressed past the first round. A replacement can then be added to the offending team. [Amended by Barry]
Pausing Rules
Each team can pause once in game for a total of 5 minutes. Other players are not allowed to unpause until they are sure that the team has returned. Any player caught pausing for longer without the permission of the other team will be forced to unpause. Players who repeatedly unpause before the 5 minutes is up with be disqualified. A pause will be allowed to exceed 5 minutes if the player if communicating with a tournament organizer.
Deleting Rules
Deleting a building or partially built building is only allowed in the following circumstances:
It is inside your or your allies base, it has more than 25% health and there are no enemy units within range to hit it.
It is in the main map but it is not on the frontline of buildings, it has more than 50% health and there are no enemy units near it.
You or your team have a significant number of units fighting in front of the building, it is blocking the way and highly unlikely to be destroyed.
Camping Rules
Camping is defined as a player playing ultra defensively in order to gain an unfair advantage. If a player stays at their gates and does not come out to attack that is clear camping. First offence means the game must be replayed. The second offence results in disqualification.
Break Rules
Every team has the right to take a 10-15 minute break between each round if they want to, however not between the individual matches of the Semi-Finals, Bronze Match and Finals.
If a team wants to take a break that exceeds 15 minutes, the other team must approve it. If the admins feel it is a frivolous excuse to waste time they will be disqualified. [Amended by Barry]
Language Rules
Discrimination in any form is not tolerated. A violation of this rule can result in disqualification for future events. Keep in mind that there are official rules related to this concern.
Simple trash talk is allowed since it has always been part of competitive activities such as sports or games. Keeping it to a minimum would be nice though.
VCOM Host Rulings
Any and all rules may be changed by the tournament organisers on or before the night. All rulings by the official VCOM tournament organisers are final.
