Rank restrictions

A player's registration will not count if they are in the top 10,000 of the osu!taiko game mode. This is meant to be a beginner's tournament, and many, if not all the maps are catered towards those who are below rank #10,000. We do not want unfair advantages! However, there are two exceptions to this rule:

1. If a player joins the top 10,000 after registering, but remains below #9,000 until the tournament starts, they are still eligible to participate.
2. If a player ranks up beyond #10,000 while the tournament is taking place, they will only be disqualified from the tournament if their rank goes significantly beyond #9,000. It is recommended to stay below #9,000.
