Rulebook – Frag-O- Matic 14.0 (17-19Feb) - Call Of duty 4 Compo

1 General:

When signing up for the Compo you automatically accept the rules.

You will also be required to specify your line up and a possible back-up and their cod4 guid, together with your table number, nicknames used on the site and a team captain.

All the communication (comments or changes regarding the rules/brackets) will go through IRC (fom.cod4 @ Quakenet) . It is your own responsibility to keep track of what’s going on at IRC.

The compo admin, which will be VORAX, can edit the rules at any time. When he does, he will inform everyone through IRC. If changes are made a comment will be placed on IRC (fom.cod4 @ Quakenet). Team captains are responsible to inform their team about these changes.

Not being fair/polite towards the admin/crew/your opponents will result in disqualification.

All decisions made by the admin (VORAX) or any of the crew members are irreversible.

Before the start of the compo, the admin will speak to the team captains and inform them of the latest agreements and or changes.

If there are any problems, the compo admin and the FoM crew will always be ready and willing to help out. When there is a discussion you can’t solve on your own, the admin or crew will decide for their selves.

The compo admin & FoM Shoutcasters can join the local servers at any time.

Any cheats/hacks are not allowed. If we suspect you of cheating your whole team will be disqualified from the compo.

Skins are not allowed.

You may have custom configs as long as they don’t give you an unfair advantage over your oponents.

2.3.2. General rules in the match:

- The Schedule must be followed

- Replacements may only be done during a time-out.

- Each team may call in one time-out per side. So max 2 in a map.

- Participants may only be in one team, switching between teams is not allowed.

- Line-ups may be changed as long as none of the players are in two teams. You must let the admin know. The admin may always refuse the change. .

- You must be available to play during the scheduled play times.

(see expected schedule above)

- The team captain must contact the other team and arrange the match during the scheduled playtime. If the other team can’t play for some reason then you have to inform the admin and a noshow will be addressed.

- Make sure your opponents cannot screenwatch. You may always ask the crew for a panel to place in between you and your opponents. Asking friends to stand behind you is also a good way to keep your opponents from looking at your screens. Don’t complain about this afterwards.

- Bounce / Boosting / Bugs are not allowed! If done so you lose the round to your opponent.

- If a match is interrupted by power cut or other problems then the match will continue after the problem has been resolved.

- You must record every match, if this is not the case than your team will lose by forfeit.(If you didn’t record the first 3 rounds you won’t lose by forfeit)

- On each map and each side you must make a screenshot of the score and this screenshot has to be kept during the whole event.

- When switching sides you have a 5 min break and when switching map a 10 min break.

- People may only come killspec if both teams agree to it.

- If you must start playing and you only have 4 players in the servers then your fifth may join at any time .( if you are with less than 4 = noshow)

- Respect your opponents at all time, when misbehaving you will be disqualified.

- The team captains are responsible to inform the cod4 admin of the scores.

2.3.3. Conflicts:

If you believe your opponents are cheating or if you discover something that is definitely not allowed then you can ask to the cod4 compo at the compo desk. He will then search for a fit solution, this can go from looking at demo’s to the banning of teams.

When conflicting you need to have proof!

!!! (Again, Make sure your opponents cannot screenwatch. You may always ask the crew for a panel to place in between you and your opponents. Asking friends to stand behind you is also a good way to keep your opponents from looking at your screens. Don’t complain about this afterwards.) !!!

3. The tournament:

There will also be a deadline for every match to be played.

3.1. Group Stage:

During group stage the matches will be played on one map (BO1).

Knife => Loser bans map -> winner bans map -> Loser bans map -> Winner choose map.

You will play a knife round first, the winner of this knife round may decide what side to play first. (Shooting/nading/smoking = lose kniferound)

The first to get 13 rounds wins the match and achieves 3 points.

In case of a draw, both teams will achieve 1 point.

If you lose you won’t gain any points.

If there is a draw at the end of the group stage we will take the win/lose ratio of rounds into account. So always play your matches until the end, if you don’t, it might eventually make you lose the compo. When a team leaves a game, then the rest of the rounds will be awarded to the other team.

On the basis of how many teams are signed up we will decide how many teams that can go on into the upper brackets. This will be announced on the FoM website or at IRC during the event itself.

3.2. Upper/lower bracket:

The upper/lower bracket system is going to be played on 1 map (BO1).

VETO BO1:

Loser Knife Round eliminates map

Winner Knife Round eliminates map

Loser Knife Round eliminates map

Winner eliminates 1 of the 2 last remaining maps

Than you knife for side.

The first to get 13 rounds wins the match and can go on to the next round of the bracket system.

-> In case of a draw you will play overtime (promod_mode match_mr3) until one of the two teams has 4 rounds. On overtime you will start at the sides you also started the map on.

-> If you lose you will be placed in the lower brackets. Losing in the lower bracket will unfortunately place you out of the tournament.

3.3. The finals:

The matches of the Lower- and Upper bracket finals and the consulation final will be played on 3 maps (BO3). The goal is to win 2 maps. The maps will be chosen as in the example.

Ex.: coin toss -> Loser picks map -> Winner picks map -> Loser bans map -> Winner bans map -> Remaining map is 3rd map

Upper bracket finals will be played by the 2 teams that have gotten the furthest in the upper bracket.

The winner of this match will be placed to the Grand Final and gets a 1-0 advantage (Map)

The loser of this match will be placed to the Consulation Final

Lower bracket finals will be played by the two teams that have gotten the furthest into the lower brackets.

The winner of this match will be placed to the Consulation Final

The loser of this match will be 4^th

Consulation final will be played by the loser of the UB final and the winner of the LB final

The winner of this match will be placed to the Grand Final

The loser of this match will be 3^rd

In the Grand Final has the winner of the UB-final 1 map advantage. The winner of the Consulation final can choose the 1^st map. The 2^nd map will be choosen by the other team.
