Any refusal to play the above listed maps will result in a disqualification

Preliminary rounds:
Round 1 (BO1)
round2 and out (BO3)
Example: Player1 is seeded as #1, Player2 is seeded as #16. Player1 may
discard the first two maps.
Player1 discards 2 maps, Player2 discards 2 maps, Player1 discards 2 maps, and then Player2 discards 2 maps. Right now, only one map resides on the maplist. That map will be played first. When a player loses he gets to choose map number 2, freely from the maplist. The loser of match 2 will choose the third map if necessary.
Final: (BO5)
Exactly the same as the preliminary rounds, the loser of the last map gets to pick the next map. All the way until a winner is declared.
Note! The same map can not be played two times in the same BO3/BO5.
B. Abuse, bug exploit and cheating.
----------------------------------
All "abuse" of features that are a part of the game is allowed.
Features which are NOT considered a part of the game, and therefore considered illegal, are:
* Flying Drone/Templar
* Allied Mines
* Turret/Obs
* Interceptor crush
* Sliding terran buildings
* Moving ground-units to another level of the map without using a dropship
All "bug exploiting" is NOT allowed and if replay evidence is displayed, the guilty person can be disqualified from the competition.
C. Info about all the rounds.
----------------------------
C1. Preliminary rounds.
In the preliminary round the players have to be ready AT LEAST 15 minutes before the game is scheduled to start. If one of the players has not showed up within 10 minutes after the game is scheduled he will lose on walkover. The winner must then report this on partyticket.net
If you are having difficulties with power/network before you game is about to start you have to tell this to the game crew right away, and then get someone from tech to help you with this.
C2. Finals and Semi-finals
If a player feels sick he HAS TO talk to one from the game crew before he can
leave. If this happens the game crew will decide how to deal with the problem and the judgement is not negotiable.
The semi-finals and finals will be played on the official server computers in the game-area. You can bring your own keyboard, mouse and headphones but nothing else.
D. Disconnect
-------------
If a player disconnects in the first 1-5 minutes of a preliminary game caused
by
cause of the network going down on his/her row or the power goes out,
the game will automatically be a rematch, come and talk to the game crew immediately
if this occurs.
If a player disconnect in the middle/end of a game of a preliminary round caused
by
the network goes down or the power goes out, he/she has to talk to the game
crew
and we will decide how to deal with it. The decision is final and non-negotiable.
E. Various rules
----------------
Late pick of races is complitly legal. If the other player leaves the game
because
of this he/she looses the game.
If both players agree on choosing random race and one of them do not do this,
then this is NO EXCUSE to leave the game and you will lose.
If your mouse/keyboard stops working put on PAUSE, on keyboard: f10 -> p,
on mouse: options -> pause game.
