#sNd-Gaming cup updates!

Well, after having a succesfull 64 slot cup today (which went slightly without any problems!!), we are proud to announce the top 3:

» ictus
» Oceans6
» Team-DND

In the final between ictus and oceans6 the match resulted into a 2-2 draw after 45 minutes of playing, and therefore a decider had to be played. They picked supply as the deciding map and ictus finally won it by beating the clock with 1 second.

Furthermore we'll also have to announce that we are not going to run any cups until we'll get a site that is dedicated on all fields. This is because it's quite alot work to update the brackets + the lineups constantly and that means that we keep focussing on the brackets instead the cup. Therefore, we're searching for someone that is able to build a cup-site for #sNd-Gaming or someone that knows any cup scripts for sites.
In case you are able to build a cup site, or are able to find a script for us, we're striving for the following requirements for the site:

¬ Automatic signup system, which means that the teams signup themselves and that they get added to the brackets automatically. (signup including information such as webpage and lineups, better known as contact information)

¬ A php system that allows us to post news regarding the cup.

These 2 factors are the main things we'd like to have on our page. If you think you're able to give us some information, please contact either Raged or Insecure in #sNd-Gaming.

Next to this all, we've also got some new rules for the cup. The rules will be used at the next cup.

3) Only matches with 2 teams with the size of 6 man are allowed. Playing e.g. 5on6 is not allowed and the team with 6 players will win the match.
4) Winning one map earns you 2 points. Drawed rounds (Double fullhold) will earn each clan 1 point. The team with the most points wins the game.

7) You are allowed to lower your maxpackets until 40, your snaps have to be on 20.
8) When the admins ask you to hand in demo’s of the match, it’s obligatory to give them. This is to keep the cup clean from e.g. cheaters.

Cheating and Abuse

1) All the matches will be played applying to the Cheating and Abuse Policy of Clanbase. If you have got an abusive behaviour, it’ll result in a forfeit loss.
2) It’s not allowed to take advantage of any bugs. If you did though, it’ll result in a forfeit loss.
3) All files, either changed files or new files, that interact with the game in any way, are strictly forbidden. The use of any forbidden program or file by any clan will result in a forfeit loss and a immediate drop of the clan from the cup.
