1. General FoM Rules

Seeà http://www.fom.be/contents/view/general-competition-rules

2. DotA 2 Competition rules:

Hello everyone and welcome to the Frag-O-Matic DotA 2 Competition.

This introduction will also serve as a little TL;DR version of the rules. For more in-depth rules, you will need to read the whole rulebook.

These rules are the basis for our DotA 2 Competition:

  • Registration for participating in the tournament ends Friday at 22:00. We play Captains mode 5v5. Join the in-game chat-channel FoM to communicate with other participating. Start your games on time (see FOM website for more information). If things go wrong, contact an admin (see below).

  • The tournament structure: pools followed by double elimination brackets.

We like to thank everyone for participating and hope you all have a fun time during the competition.

2.1. Tournament overview

Title:                                     DotA 2 (http://store.steampowered.com/app/570/)

Game Type:                      Captains Mode (5v5)

FoM Compo Size:            Normal

Admins:                               j1nx       (http://steamcommunity.com/id/j1nx_belgium),

Eevee (http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197966823759/)

Compo Structure:           Pools followed by Double Elimination bracket (Winners of the pools start in                                                     upper bracket, 2nd place teams in pools start in lower bracket)

2.2. Teams & Players

Teams are required to register with one of the DotA 2 Admins (J1nx or Eevee) at the compo desk on the LAN.

Registration includes; Team Name, all active & backup players (with real name, primary nickname & Steam-account), identity of the team leader/captain/manager (same as active & backup players).

A minimum of 5 players is required to enter the competition. Registering more than 5 players per team is allowed.

Each player can only be part of 1(one) DotA 2 Team entering the competition.

Team members (excluding team leaders/captains/managers) can be removed anytime as long as at least five members are left.

To request a removal, contact the DotA 2 Admins (see below).

A new member can only be added during the competition on Friday or Saturday, but not Sunday (‘Final day’ of the competition), if he hasn’t played a game for another team inside the competition.

To request an addition, contact the DotA 2 Admins (see below).

Registration for teams ends at 22.00h on Friday.

Removals or additions can be requested during the whole competition if requirements are met.

 

2.3. Hosting & Game Settings

At least one member (the team leader/captain/manager) of each team has to add both DotA 2 admins to their Steam friends-list.

All games will be hosted in “Local-Mode” (as found under “Create Lobby” -> “Create Local Lobby”) by one of the players of the teams. DotA 2 Admins can take over the hosting of the game should it be required.

(Ask the DotA 2 Admins if additional information is required). Note: hosting a game might increase performance required for running DotA 2 (don’t worry, it is only a very tiny increase)

No Spectators allowed.

DotA 2 Admins can request a spectator slot. Or the DotA 2 Admin(s) might host the game instead

Game settings:                Lobby Password: none, or free to choose by hosting party (This password needs to be told to one of the DotA 2 Admins upon creation of the lobby).

Game name: Teams may decide whether or not they fill in their team's name

Game mode: CAPTAINS MODE

                                               Cheats: NO

                                               Version: Tournament

                                               Series Type: No series

Starting Team: Random

                                               Penalty: None, for both teams

Which team starts at Radiant/Dire can be agreed upon by the teams among themselves. However if both teams want to start at the same side, a DotA 2 Admin will decide (based on a coin toss).

For other then “Best of one” games, the starting position will alternate based on the side chosen in game 1.

 

Games should be hosted on time, as per schedule (See FoM website for more information).

Games should be hosted/started within 15 minutes of the set time, if otherwise: please contact an Admin.

It is up to the teams themselves to make sure they start their match on time.

 

2.4. During the match

The hero pool always consists of all in Captains Mode available heroes and might therefore change several times during the competition. The game must not be paused during the draft.

Each team has the right to pause the game for an acceptable duration, if a player announces it at least three seconds in advance and calls a coherent reason (exception: not necessary pauses, someone disconnects, technical difficulties,...).

                Please do inform the DotA 2 Admins if pauses are “unacceptable”.

The game must not be resumed before both teams agree with it.

When the number or the duration of breaks becomes too high or long, the Admins may force the continuation of the game.

                Guidelines for acceptable durations:

Personal issues: If one or more players disconnect due to personal issues, the game may be paused for a maximum of 5 minutes per team (per map). The disconnected players must join the game as soon as possible. Personal issues include: PC crash, network cable disconnected, DotA 2 crash…

Frag-o-Matic issues: If one or more players disconnect due to Frag-o-Matic issues, the game may be paused for a maximum of 30 minutes. When this period of time has elapsed, the game will be restarted when all issues have been resolved. Frag-o-Matic issues include: Network failure, power-outages, etc.

If any serious bugs occur, the game has to be paused immediately and the administration decides how to continue. Abusing a bug is forbidden.

A team can request a remake (For user errors such as double buying couriers by mistake) at a DotA 2 Admin. The Admins will decide if the remake can be granted.

Pause the game if your team wants to request a remake, until a DotA 2 Admin has allowed the remake or not.

Remade games will be hosted in ALL PICK, with the same heroes as picked during drafting phase.

Remakes can only be granted as long as the game hasn’t started yet.

Following events, but not limited to these examples, count as the start of a game;

Creeps spawning, Roshan being slain, teams meeting in their or opponents jungle, getting first blood before creeps spawn, anything that can reveal a strategy for either teams, etc.

Cheating, including the usage of any DotA-related tool aside from Steam and DotA 2 during a match is strictly forbidden.

 

2.5. DotA 2 Tournament Structure

Registering teams will be split randomly into 4 poules.

"Double elimination" bracket after poules.

Pool winners will start in the upper bracket, 2nd place teams will start in the lower bracket.

Hosting games is up to the teams themselves. You can use the FoM website or the in game chat-channel FoM to communicate with other teams. (We ask to host your games on time, since our time on LAN is limited)

 

3. Contacting the DotA 2 Admins

You can contact a DotA 2 Admin via Steam Friends, the in game chat-channel "FoM" or at the Compo desk.

Upon registration at the LAN, the admins will ask the team leaders to add at least one of the DotA 2 admins to their Steam-Friends.

                j1nx       (http://steamcommunity.com/id/j1nx_belgium),

Eevee   (http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197966823759/)

When a DotA 2 Admin is required to make a decision about the outcome of a match, teams might be required to deliver the replay file of the match, the DotA 2 Admin(s) will watch this replay before a decision is made.

The full match replay will be stored on the lobby host’s PC, you will be able to find the replay in your “DotA 2 beta\dota\replays\<match-id>.dem” folder and from there it can be shared over email, a file host or other media.

As a player, broadcaster or spectator you can also manually record your own match replay by using the command (in console):             record [filename here]
