The return to official international tournament long lost, is here. Shifting away from the draft format that has been fairly successful over the past couple of years, and following the success of the recent Quakecon at Home duel tournament, which involved participants from multiple continents, a number of unofficial showmatches have been arranged between the likes of 
UK & Ireland, 
Australia, 
Brazil, 
USA&Canada and 
Portugal. This has helped to demonstrate the interest in staging international games once again and hence GetQuad! are now formalising this into an official tournament.
Nations
Rules
- League format: group stage (BO3) and playoffs with top 4 (BO5)
- Maps are TB3, but if teams agree to play others, it is allowed
- Preferably teams are by nation, but if there’s not enough players from one nation, teams can be a mix of nations, but admins have to approve
- Multiple teams per nation is allowed, but each team needs a unique team manager
- Players can choose to play within the team of their country of origin, or to play in the team of their country of residence
- Each team has to elect a team manager, who’ll have to deal with admins, schedule matches, and define team lineups for each match. The team manager needs to sign up the team for the tournament. Signup form
- Server selections are up to the team managers, but equal pings are mandatory!

Server settings
- TeamOverlay: the team, who is not selecting the map, decides the TeamOverlay setting for that map. For 3rd maps the TeamOverlay setting must be randomized (/rnd TO_on TO_off). But teams can agree on the TeamOverlay setting (always on, always off)
- Timelimit: 20 minutes
- Overtime: 5 minutes if match is a draw
- Deathmatch mode: 1
- Teamplay mode: 2
- Spawn mode: KTX2 Respawns
- Powerups: ON
- Discharge: ON
- KFjump: Toggled OFF (command = tkfjump)
- Airstep: OFF
- Jawnmode: OFF
- Antilag (or equivalent): ON (unless both teams agree to play without it.)
- Fallbunny: ON (if server allows)
- No berzerk, midair, instagib or other unusual modes.
- If a team requests nospecs-mode, the other team is obliged to comply.
Match Reporting
- The winning team's manager should report the match on the GetQuad Website. (You need to create an account.)
- In order for a match to be valid, you'll need to have screenshots and demos from each played map
Allowed clients
Allowed rulesets
- ezQuake: smackdown, qcon
- Clean report reply on "f_ruleset" check! No "-f" in the check report, so no individual enemy skins allowed
- FTEQW: strict
- FodQuake: eql
- Players should do f_ruleset checks before game start. It is ultimately the responsibility of the players to perform this check, and in general, matches played with outlying rulesets will not be overturned, if the players neglected to perform this duty. Where there is ambiguity, the decision will be decided by the Admins.
Allowed proxies
Using disallowed clients/proxies might lead to points deduction or even a WO.
Scripting and cheats
Allowed
- cl_fakeshaft (only mentioned here as it used to be forbidden)
NOT allowed
- movement scripts (ezquake: cl_idrive must be OFF)
- kfjump
- custom rocket jump scripts
- Any other kind of movement scripts
- Automated teamsays
- Radar
- Skin changing depending on health/armour/weapon
- Custom models not allowed by f_modified
- Any kind of cheat (wallhack, aimbot, timers etc.)
- Hacked clients
