Ruleset

• The Speed of Light tournament is a tournament where registered players compete to see who ends up at the top.
• We will use Score v2 for this tournament.
• The beatmaps for each round will be announced by the map poolers in a showcase after each stage of the tournament. One tiebreaker will be provided for each pool. This map is only played in the case of a tie with each player needing one point to win.
• The schedule of each match will be established by the tournament organizers, with reschedules available.
• If there is no referee available, the game will be postponed.
• Failed scores of the players are not added to the team score.
• If they revive and survive for a beatmap before is over the points would be valid.
• If a player is disconnected, it will be treated as a fail. Disconnections within 30 seconds after the start of beatmap can result in a restart. This depends on the referee's discretion.
• Beatmaps cannot be reused in the same game unless the game is canceled.
• The maximum time you can postpone a match is 15 minutes. (Referee’s call)
• Lag is not a valid reason to cancel a beatmap.
• All players and referees must be treated with respect. Follow the instructions of the referees and tournament management. Final decisions should not be challenged.
• Stopping the game by foul play, picking inappropriate warmup beatmaps, insulting and provoking other players or referees, delaying the match or other inappropriate deliberate misbehavior is strictly prohibited.
• Unexpected incidents will be handled by the tournament organizers. Referees may allow greater tolerance depending on the circumstances.
• Penalties for violating the rules of the tournament are irrevocable and will lead to disqualification of the player.

Tournament organisation

Round overview

• With the exception of the qualifier stage (which does not have a winning condition), each tournament round will have a selectable mappool of a certain size, a tiebreaker song, and a winning condition. The format is as follows:

  • Qualifiers Stage: 4 song mappool, no winning condition.
  • Group stage: 11 song mappool, best of 7 (first to 4).
  • Round of 32: 13 song mappool, best of 9 (first to 5).
  • Round of 16 and quarterfinals: 15 song mappool, best of 11 (first to 6).
  • Semifinals and finals: 17 song mappool, best of 13 (first to 7).
  • Grand finals: 19 song mappool, best of 15 (first to 8).

Qualification process

• All players entering the tournament will be eligible to play in the qualifying round. However, the number of participants will advance to the next round will be reduced to the nearest power of 2.
• Players will be organized in lobbies as available. Because the rating is not a process that involves fighting one to one, it is actually possible to have 8 players or more go through the qualification process once. If this is a confusing process, do not worry: simply comply with the schedule to be published and follow the instructions of the referee during the match. The purpose of placement in lobbies of 8 is giving airtime to everyone, as the qualifiers will also be transmitted!
• This process will not face players from their lobby, just play a series of maps that will serve to give a position in a ranking to determine their "seed", so do not worry of where they were in the lobby at each map, at the end the scores of all players are added together to determine their position in the ranking
• Regardless of the number of participants and eliminations, the qualification process will also decide the seeded players. Players will be sorted according to their average score on the songs, with the best average score of seed #1, and the worst score is the seed average N; N being the number of players in the qualifier stage.

Tournament play

• A referee will create a multiplayer room 15 minutes in advance. Players must meet during this period.
• The room configuration is osu, Team-Vs, Win Condition: 'ScoreV2'. The room name must be "(SOL Tournament): (Player1) vs (Player2)".
• The player mentioned first in the name of the room must be the red team, the player mentioned second in the name of the room must be the blue team.
• Players are free to select one beatmap per player for warmup. Beatmaps with questionable or explicit content is prohibited. All the beatmaps must be osu! beatmaps specifically, and must be submitted so each player can download it.
• Each player can ban a beatmap from being selected in the match. These beatmaps won’t be selected by any player throughout the match.
• Beatmap selection will alternate between each player selecting a beatmap from the mappool.
• Each player must use !roll once in #multiplayer.
• The loser will choose the first ban of the match. The winner will choose the second ban and the first pick of the match.
• The results of each stage will be posted in a spreadsheet after the given stage.
