GENERAL RULES

The tournament will be in a 1 vs 1 format.
ScoreV2 and NF will be used throughout the tournament.
Brackets will be scheduled High vs. Low.
Players cannot pick from the same mod bracket twice in a row.
To ensure everyone's safety and mental well-being, certain users might be rejected from signing up if they are known to cause disruptive behaviour.

MYSTERY MOD

A random mod will be selected through rolls, meaning that the person who picked it will do !roll 5 and depending on the number they get, that mod will be picked as the mystery mod for that map.

If 1 is rolled, the map will be played with Hidden!
If 2 is rolled, the map will be played with Easy!
If 3 is rolled, the map will be played with No Mods!
If 4 is rolled, the map will be played with Double Time!
If 5 is rolled, the map will be played with Hard Rock!

After internal discussions and players feedback, we've decided that the Mystery mod will be tweaked for the Semifinal stage of our tournament. Therefore, players will now roll from 1 to 4 instead of 1 to 5.

A random mod will be selected through rolls. The person who picked the map will use the command !roll 4, and the mod will be chosen based on the number rolled:

MYSTERYMOD 1 (MM1)

If 1 is rolled, the map will be played with Easy!
If 2 is rolled, the map will be played with No Mods!
If 3 is rolled, the map will be played with Hidden!
If 4 is rolled, the map will be played with Hard Rock!

MYSTERYMOD 2 (MM2)

If 1 is rolled, the map will be played with No Mods!
If 2 is rolled, the map will be played with Hidden!
If 3 is rolled, the map will be played with Hard Rock!
If 4 is rolled, the map will be played with Double Time!

If Easy, Hard Rock, or Double Time is rolled, you can choose to add Hidden yourself since Hidden doesn't affect your ScoreV2 score!

MATCH PROCEDURE

If players want a reschedule, they need to agree so before the Friday of the match week.
This tournament will be played in a double elimination, meaning you have a second chance at continuing on in the tournament.
Players can submit a warmup no longer than 3 minutes on the WyBin website; this must be done by Friday before the match.
Players will have 15 minutes to enter the lobby before an automatic forfeit is put in place.
Once both players' warmups have ended, the roll procedure will determine which player picks and bans first, with the winner of the roll deciding first.
If a tie occurs, the map is replayed until one player wins.
Map replay will only occur if a player disconnects within the first 30 seconds of the map. If this happens a second time, the point will go to the other player.
