Ping Rules
To simplify ping rules and hopefully establish a more fair playing field across the board, pings will be handled as followed:
- Minimum ping of 50 for all players
- Games where Yeti is involved, will be played in southern LA (Dusty's LA if teams can not agree on a specific LA server). Captains in this game must play with a min ping of 110ms to help balance Yeti's ping (currently in review/discussion)
- Games without Yeti, the default server location is Dallas (Rusty's Dallas if teams cannot agree on a specific LA server). If BOTH teams agree there is a better server location (ie: Chicago, NJ, etc) the games may be played here.
Interrupted Matches
Members from each team should 'elect', should one of your players drop/disconnect it is your responsibility to take note and pause the game immediately. Maps will not be 'restarted' as a result of a player dropping/timing out. The onus is on each team to elect to ensure they may pause quickly should a player encounter issues.
Match Reporting
- The winning team's captain should report the match on the "Results" channel of discord
- In order for a match to be valid, screenshots and demos must be supplied from each played map
