  9. FIRST PLACE PRIZE:


  1. The match lobby will be created by the referee, and the team captains of both teams will be invited. The captain is then responsible for inviting the rest of their team. If the captain of a team is not online, the referee will invite any other player from that team, and that player will be responsible for inviting their team.
  2. Teams have a 15 minute grace period to have at least 3 players available to play the match. If 15 minutes pass and a team does not have enough players to play the match, the other team will receive a win by default.
  3. Once all players have joined the lobby, captains will be asked to !roll; the winner of the roll will have the first warmup, first ban, and first pick.
  4. Warmup maps will be allowed for the entirety of the tournament. Each team may select one warmup pick; warmups may not exceed 4:30 total length.
  5. The referee can give host to the players for warmups only. The referee will have host for the entire match after warmups. A team will select a map by naming the map in the multiplayer chat, and the referee will select it.
  6. Each team is allowed to ban 1 map from Map-Pool A. Map-Pool B maps may not be allowed to be banned at ANY time.
  7. Teams have 3 minutes to select a map; if they fail to choose in the allotted time, the map choice will pass to the other team. This will have no effect on the order of picks afterward.
  8. There is no restriction on map selection order; teams may select any available map at any time regardless of mod.
  9. On freemod picks, at least two players from each team must use Hidden, Hard Rock, or both.
  10. Hidden and Hard Rock are allowed, but not required, on Tiebreakers.
  11. Only one of each seed is allowed to play in the lobby at any given time, so you can only have 1 A seed, 1 B seed, and 1 C seed.
  12. Once the map choice is locked in, players will have 3 minutes to ready up. The referee will start the match when all players are ready. If the 3 minute timer ends, the referee will force an !mp start 15 command, and the match will start with whoever is in the lobby.
  13. The winner of a map is determined by which team ends with a higher score.
  14. In the case of a disconnection, a rematch will only be played if the disconnection occurred within the first 30 seconds of the map. This can be judged by the mp link. If a player disconnects after 30 seconds of the map have passed, their score will not be counted.

Credits to Xiao Xiao and Squeeble for the idea, and DigitalHypno and this1neguy for writing the forum post rules which I copied with co-operation from them.

By the way, I just wanna mention, your rankings will be considered on the final day of registration, so the rankings i'm putting for the sheet currently which holds the player list can be considered just a placeholder. Rankings will be entirely up-to-date on the day we assign teams.

To clarify, star rating for the maps kind of depends on how many people sign up, but we are aiming for a standard taiko star rating, so from 4~7 as the tournament progresses. I understand this is the most tricky part for a lot of the newer players, but the fun of the cup is to see the skill difference between the different tiers of players! Since Taiko has generally smaller cast of players, making pools that are suitable for everyone will be tricky, but rest assured that we will try to make it fair for all the teams.

If there is any worst case scenario, we will choke the team size to something different, but we are very hopeful and optimistic about the 192 number we have set!

Well, at the moment, staff has decided that they will NOT grant this tournament a set of badges because it is "the first iteration". I've sent them a reply e-mail, trying to get something done, because I don't understand why this is happening to this tournament, and none of the numerous others which were first iterations, like Shift Cup, Battlegrounds, etc.

So I will understand if you want to drop out since there is now no promise for a badge. I don't know what kind of prizes I can provide in the meantime, because Staff doesn't even give supporter anymore. This will simply have to be funded out of my own pocket. I hope you guys still enjoy the tournament in spite of this, if nothing is done, because I will still put a lot of work and love into it no matter what!

Hi guys! If you'd like to get in the mood of the tournament, we now have a skin! It's a skin made with elements mainly from umnkenenezo and a menu screen (for supporters only) designed by Reo.

Umnkenenezo has graciously allowed us to use these elements for this tournament, so I really would like you guys to go check out her twitter and please follow her! https://twitter.com/Sssahuo

She designed the drum, highway, faces, hit-bursts, banner, and the animated character! They weren't designed FOR the tournament, but we felt they fit the spirit of the tournament, so if you'd like to download this skin you can do so here: http://puu.sh/BdWQF/ec1944798a.osk
