💥 TRENDING: Groups/Tranverse/announcements - Full Archive

Hey everyone! I just want to inform you all about this 'tournament' thing that I've been mentioning recently. So here's how it's going to work. In essence, there are going to be 2 different types of tournaments. One is available to everyone in the community, while the other is only for those who have a specific game. Both types of the tournaments will be run at the same time, so each person can only participate in one tournament at any given time.

1. Details for each tournament will be posted here in #announcements one week before the tournament is held.

2. To enter a tournament, there will an entrance fee of 1 item in your Steam inventory which needs to be sent to the tournament host (provided in details).

3. The item can be anything worth as much (or as little) as you desire.

4. In the event that both tournaments' hosts are the same person, send your entrance fee and message them which tournament you wish to enter.

5. a) The system that we are implementing is like a tournament tree. There will be multiple rounds until a winner is determined.
b) Details will be provided on whether there will be a free-for-all round when a predetermined number of people are left.

6. a) Each tournament will only have 1 winner.
b) In the case that there are draws (ties), another challenge will be announced and the cycle will repeat until a winner is determined.

7. a) Tournament Type 1 - Anyone can join
i) A game will be decided on by the tournament host and/or tournament staff.
ii) The game will be a free, indie game that anyone can download on Steam and will be the game that players will compete with.
iii) This game will also be confirmed with entrees that they do not own and has never played the game before.
iv) This will be the 'fairer' tournament where everyone will start on the same playing ground.
b) Tournament Type 2 - Specific game owners
i) A specific game will be decided on by the tournament host and/or tournament staff.
ii) This tournament can only be entered by those who already own the game.
iii) This tournament will be dependant on the skills of entrees so entrees should be confident in their abilities if they want to win.

8. A challenge will also be decided upon in which the player must complete.
i) Said challenge may range from anything including, but not limited to:
+ Time-based challenges such as races
+ Achieving a predetermined score
+ Completing various in-game tasks

9. The reward for the winner of a tournament will be all the entrance fees accumulated from that specific tournament.
i) Additional rewards may be given if the tournament host wishes to do so and will be provided in the details.

10. Entrees to tournaments must stream on Steam (or Twitch if requested by entree) so a tournament staff member may watch and advocate the legitimacy of the play.
i) Entrees must confirm that a tournament staff member is watching before commencing.

11. Entrees may be disqualified for two main reasons.
i) Failure to confirm a tournament staff member is watching before commencing the play.
ii) Cheating in any way, shape, or form.

12. Disqualified entrees will suffer multiple consequences due to their actions.
i) Entrance fees will not be refunded / given back to disqualified entrees.
ii) Disqualified entrees will not be able to join another tournament for the next 2 tournament sessions after the current tournament.
