1. Game Format

• 1.1. Player Eligibility

  All players participating in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (henceforth PUBG) competitions must enter their PUBG ID. The gameaccount is needed to check if the correct player is playing.
  
  Sign-ups will be closed for all cups 30 minutes before they start. If your team has not signed up before this time you will be unable to participate.
  Your team will also be required to check-in to the cup itself starting 30 minutes before the cup.

• 1.2. Team and Player Names

  Only registered team members are allowed to play for a team. Playing in any matches with a ringer is prohibited. Players and teams must compete under their officially registered PUBG team names and Nicknames during all official matches.

• 1.3. Roster

  Team rosters must consist of at least the minimum amount of players required to participate in a cup. Teams are only allowed to play with players on their roster with a registered game account. All roster changes must be made prior to the start of a cup. Playing with different players and/or illegal ringers will result in punishment.
   

• 1.4. Game version

  All players must install the newest version of the game in order to participate in Fom tournaments. Updates must be installed before the tournament starts, so delays will be at a minimum.

• 1.5. Technical Issues

  Teams are responsible for their own technical issues (hardware/internet). Matches will not be rescheduled because of technical issues and matches will be played nevertheless. If the warm-up time in the starting area is exceeded the game goes on, even if the issue is not solved yet. In case of massive problems influencing a significant amount of players, a replay of the map may be called via the tournament's support channels on Discord.

• 1.6. Participation

  The first teams to do their check-ins for each cup get to participate until the maximum amount of check-ins is reached. Slots will be available on a first-come, first-served basis beginning from the check-in process start 30 minutes before the start of the cup.
  
  Each lobby will consist of 16 teams (or less during the first round if the sign-up limit is not reached). The number of rounds and lobbies may change based on the number of checked-in teams.

• 1.7. Disqualification

  To keep cups as efficient as possible, FOM reserves the right to disqualify teams. This will only be done in cases where a team purposefully stalls or attempts to block the cup from starting.
  
  Usage of Reshade, SweetFX, VibranceGUI, and other 3rd party programs that enhance, add, modify, or remove the game appearance, colour, or files, is strictly prohibited.
  
  Intentionally changing your character's angle to look through a texture or object is prohibited. You are not allowed to set two actions to the same key in key bindings.
  
  The intentional use of any bugs, cheats, glitches, or errors in the game is strictly forbidden and will be penalized. Any team found to be using any known exploit will forfeit their game upon the first occurrence of the exploit. If the team is found to use another known exploit for a second time and it is determined to have been done on purpose they will be removed from the tournament and barred from any future tournaments.

2. In-Game Settings

Every Match in the Competition will use Esports Mode with the following Match Settings. All settings shall remain default unless explicitly stated below. Administration reserves the right to make changes to In-Game Settings for any reason at any time.

3. In-Game Scoring

Every Match in the Competition will award Points in accordance with the following scoring system.

• 3.1. Kill Points

  Kill Points are awarded to teams based on the number of Kills the Team accumulates during each Match. A Team will earn one (1) Kill Point per Kill.

• 3.2. Ranking Points

  Ranking Points are awarded to teams based on their finishing position at the end of each Match. Teams will accumulate Ranking Points based on the following matrix.

• 3.3. Match Points

  A Team’s Match Points is the sum of their Kill Points and Placement Points.
  Kill Points + Placement Points = Match Points
  For example, a Team which accumulates 10 Kills and finishes the Match in the 3rd position will earn 15 Match Points (10 + 5 = 15).

• 3.4. Total Points

  A Team’s Total Points is the sum of all Match Points accumulated during a set period of time.

• 3.5. Tie Breaker

  In the event that two or more teams have the same number of Total Points, the following rules shall be applied to break the tie.

1. Compare every tied Team’s total Kill Points across all Matches
2. Compare every tied Team’s best-performing Match based on Match Points
3. Compare every tied Team’s best-performing Match based on Kill Points
4. Compare every tied Team’s Kill Points in the most recent Match
5. Compare every tied Team’s Placement Points in the most recent Match
