General rules:

Map-pack will be released two weeks prior to opening day of TheGathering09. All matches are to be played under supervision of a pre-approved match-administrator on a validated server. For decisions regarding protests or disputes in matches, the main-admin rulings have full authority. Admins reserve the right to alter rules if needed. Take screenshots after every map!

OBS! All players are required to keep track of starting-times for their groups. Players who don’t show up within 15 minutes of scheduled starts will be removed from the competition. Contact admins BEFORE MATCH if you need to postpone your match.
