Line War Tournament 23T2

Hello everyone!

This is a followup with more information about the tournament. See original post here.

Start of the tournament is almost here! We need 5 more players to form a full 32p tournament. We want you to join the tournament, whether you are new to the game or a veteran from the past!

YOU HAVE 8 MORE HOURS UNTIL SIGNUP IS DUE! ːsteamhappyː

Registration will be open until September 14 6:00 PM (18:00) CEST.
Tournament will start in September 15 6:00 PM (18:00) CEST.
Check-in starts September 14 6:00 PM (18:00) CEST (DON'T FORGET!)

Stage 1:
Participants in group of 4 will play against each other 2 matches each (6 matches in total for 1 player, on 6 different maps). No one will be eliminated during 1st stage - instead N amount of players with most amount of loses will be placed in losers brackets right away in stage 2 of the tournament (They need to be eliminated only once - see it here https://linewar.challonge.com/23T2_1v1/bracket).
If there wont be enough participants to form a full group - they will be placed in reserves or in losing brackets in Stage 2 right away. More information on Stage 2 will be provided later to tournament participants.

Rules:
  1. DON'T FORGET TO CHECK IN! It will start in September 14 6:00 PM (18:00) CEST
  2. If you wont be able to play a match for long period of time - report it to tournament organisers through Discord. If player wont respond to organiser/opponent AND will not play straight for 2-3 days - that player will be disqualified.
  3. In chat: Act friendly, do not spam, no harsh language, respect your opponents.
  4. Don't intentionally prolong the match by "turtleling" or by building sneaky buildings. Resign when you are sure that you cant win.
  5. All strategies and units are allowed in matches (off-shore subpens/shipyards placement, sneaky barracks in small territory behind the line and so on)
  6. If player disconnects in middle of the match (power outage, connection problems, etc) - match can be replayed if both sides agree. Otherwise the one who disconnects loses automatically.

Scheduling and playing the matches:
  1. Open match details (click on magnifying glass, look at the picture below) to get name of your next opponent and map seed
  2. Agree with your opponent on the date and time when you will play your match in ⁠tournament-chat channel. NOTE: During group stage, it will be smart to contact all your opponents immediately at same time.
  3. On a set time, create or join a public lobby with your opponent. You can utilize password protection in a lobby to exclude other players. Play a match while following the rules. NOTE: If you encountered a problem (opponent is not showing up, cheating, badmouthing and etc) report it to ⁠tournament-problems channel
  4. Once match is played, report the score on Challonge (look at picture below) and send replay name in ⁠tournament-replays channel of LW Discord server
