[Valamarl 885]

Prerequisites:
· Be registered on the sG Forums.
· Have a minimum of 50 hours on any of our servers or in total prior to this post.
· Not banned during or if time expires while the tournament is taking place.

Signup:
Go to this thread to sign up for the CS:GO tournament. Include your steamid in the post.
Teams:
· Since there is no way to tell how good everyone is at soccer, teams will be chosen by random
· Teams will consist of 4 players (maybe 5 depending on the amount of people who sign up).
Settings:
· 3:00 round time, round ends if goal is scored.
· If time runs out, the round is restarted.
· Best out of 15 rounds (8 rounds win)
· There will be no ties
· The Sprint ability will be enabled by double tapping the "w" key. This will recharge every 15 seconds.
· Matches will be best out of 1 or 3 maps depending on match. (See bracket for more details **subject to change based on team numbers**)Each team is required to screenshot the final scoreboard after the match ends
· The winning team will be required to post the final screenshots of all the maps to prove their victory (In the appropriate forum)
· Teams are required to be on time to their scheduled match. Teams will be allowed to have 15 minutes from the schedule time before they will be forced to forfeit in case of an absent player/s
· It is the team's responsibility to make sure their fellow members show up to the posted times.
· Teams will consist of 4 members (including goalies).
· Subs will not be allowed unless we have a large amount of people signed up for the tournament
· Team size may change depending on the amount of people in the tournament

All matches will be recorded and are subject to be looked at if any sort of foul play is suspected. GOTV will be available on all servers for people to watch games. (GOTV will be delayed a round to prevent ghosting.)

Maps:
· mg_soccer_2012

Brackets:
· This tournament will be using a round robin bracket. (Is still subject to change)
· Each team will get to play every other team once.
· From that round, the top 4 teams will advance. First place will play fourth, and second place will play third.
· All matches after the round robin stage will be Bo3
· The winner of those 2 matches will play each other for the title of CS:GO soccer champions

Rules:
· sG's Global Server Guidelines apply.
· No excessive flaming and trolling. (Keep the shit-talking to a minimum)
· No exploiting.
· No intentional griefing of teammates and other players.
· Using any form of hack, cheat, script, or any other 3rd party program to further aid you and your team is STRICTLY forbidden and you will be held to the same punishment as a normal sG Server. (Does not include voice programs such as Teamspeak or Ventrilo)
· Remember you are playing on sG servers so all punishments will be global.
· Sitting in spectator, regardless of team, is not allowed during a match. (Not including GOTV)

Prizes:
Prizes will be awarded based on how many prizes are available with the winning team being the first and so on. Prizes are handed out to teams in order of top performing members to a team. This is determined by match performance and games played (aka. influence towards team position).
For those who won't be able to participate in the tournament itself there will also be a bracket competition with a prize for the closest matching bracket. The rules for this will be determined once the final bracket is posted.

You do know it's the British people's fault for people around the world calling it soccer, right?

I'm sure you're going to give me some clever proof, I'm going to stick to my guns and say... Surely it can't be our fault that you lot call it something stupid and irrelevant.

 

To any counter arguments, I don't care what you say, you're wrong. Call American fooball soccer and get rid of the confusion once and for all. 

 

 

 

1. The word "soccer," which is believed to have originated in Britain some 200 years ago, comes from the official name of the sport, "association football." As other versions of the game evolved to include Rugby Football, it is believed the Brits adopted colloquialisms to distinguish each game.
