Creating an illusionary prone position
Any attempt to gain an unfair advantage is cheating. This includes modifying the game files, running
memory resident cheats, or anything else beyond the normal scope of the game “Exploiting” refers to
utilizing a bug in the game itself to gain an advantage. This may take the form of setting a variable to a
value that gives an unexpected result, using a “hole” in the map to gain access to an area that was not
expected etc. Anything beyond what the programmers intended is considered a bug, and using a bug
to gain an advantage is considered an exploit.
Because of the difficulty of defining what is a bug, is it being exploited, that something is just “a little
odd', or is it something that has been accepted by the community as part of the game (such as bunnyhopping in the Quake series of games). Any team that intends to use anything that MA Y be considered
an exploit must verify that it is acceptable with a Tournament Administrator BEFORE the match
commences Basically, if your team uses a tactic that might be considered “shady”, “grey” or
“questionable” you're better off to not use it, but you are welcome to privately ask the Tournament
Administrator about it and its legality.
Penalties & Disqualification:If rules are broken, Tournament Referees may apply penalties according to
their judgment and discretion. Penalties that can be applied are the following:
1 (one) Round loss or more
Default loss
Banning a player/team from the venue.
Disqualification of a player/team from the entire tournament.
Fair Play:It is forbidden to insult, abuse or manhandle a Player or a Referee, or do damage to property
that belong to others.
The notion of fair play is up to the Referee's assessment.
Lack of fair play can lead to penalties. In order to secure a pleasant course of game, we encourage
all players to show sportsmanlike and fair conduct.
