Rules for Monday 4v4 CA

---

Rules last updated on: 08/07/2009

The Most Important Rule

Play for fun and don’t be a jerk, even if being a jerk is what you do for fun.

League Structure

The league will be played using a round robin tournament structure. This means that every team plays every other team only once. At the end of the round robin, the top 4 ranked teams will enter a single elimination playoffs to determine the overall winner.

Match Schedules

• All match times will be predetermined by the league.
• ‘Quake Night’ is Monday.
• All matches will be scheduled to begin between 7pm and 9pm PST.
• If necessary you can request to reschedule the match with your opponent. If they agree, then contact a +o in #QuakeNight with the updated match time.

Server Selection

As a West league, the available servers are:

• SF, CA
• LA, CA
• PA, CA
• WA

If a server cannot be agreed upon, the match will be played on the server with the smallest differential between the average ping of each team.

Map Selection

Each team selects one map before the match begins. If there is any dispute over order of selection then the team listed first on the schedule page picks first and their selection is played first.

Teams may not select the tie breaker map as their map pick, and teams may not select the same map as their opponent. No map may be played more than once in a single match.

If the match is tied after 2 maps then the tiebreaker map will be played. The tiebreaker is determined by the league and will be announced along with match times in the schedule.

Newly released maps may be added at the discretion of the admins. The current map list is:

• qzca1
• qzca2
• qzdm6
• qzdm20
• qztourney6

Server Settings

ID software’s default server settings will be used.

Winning

The first team to win 2 maps is the match winner. The winner of a map is determined by the first team to reach 10 rounds won. In the event of the default 20 minute time limit being reached the map will be continued from the ending round scores until one team reaches a total of 10 rounds won.

Forfeits

There are a number of ways that a team can have a match forfeited. They include:

• Failure to have 4 players ready within 30 minutes of the match time
• Failure to record a demo from all player perspectives
• Ghosting
• Ringing

Teams that forfeit can be removed from the league at the discretion of the admins.

Standings

Standings are determined by Matches Won, then Games Played, then Maps Won/Maps Lost, and finally Net. For playoff placement, Net is ignored and ties are broken by team vs. team results.

Rosters

Contact an admin before a match if your roster is incomplete. If a player is not on the Quake Night roster then they can be asked to not play at the discretion of the other team.

Demos

1. Record from all player point of views
2. After the game, the winning team must upload to Quake Scene
3. Provide the links to a +o in #QuakeNight

Reporting

Contact a +o in #QuakeNight. Please provide the link to the map summary on Quake Live. You can get this link by clicking on ‘Matches’ under your Quake Live profile.

The “Yous Bein a Jerk” Catch-All Rule

You forfeit and we don’t even feel bad about it.
