[slide="participants" FAQ="FAQ" for="for"]
I'm on the server and I have to dismiss a map. Whose word comes first, mine or my opponent's?
As both players are on the server it's required that they write in chat /roll - plugin will randomly select a player. The one with less number (looser) chooses first.
How do I know when it's time to play?
Every participant is required to add an admin on steam so that he can invite you to the server when it's time to play. Here is a steam page of the guy you need :)
I had an admin on steam and was all the time online but he didn't message me. Why did it happen?
It's most likely because you had different interface name on steam so an admin simply couldn't find you. To avoid these situations it's higly recommendable to use your real nick so an admin can reach out to you.
I was too late for the sign-ups and the cup is already full, is there a chance I can still join?
Yes, there is a chance. Just leave a comment like everyone else did before you and you might be picked as a substitute for missing player. For example, if your comment was 17th and someone of the 16 players couldn't participate then you come in as a substitue. Then 18th and so on.
I find some of the plugins on the server disturbing, can I disable them?
Yes, of course. Current list of plugins that might disturb you is as short as: /ljstats, /invis, /speclist
How can I check my opponents final position?
Write in chat /position[/slide]
[slide="Rules"]Match time - 5 minutes, rematch - 2 minutes.
Final position counts according to the /position plugin and it's recommended to stay still on the block as it's 1-2 seconds remaining till the end of the map.
Camping more than 5 seconds will lead you to defeat. Camping is determined on admins agreement in non-standard situations. Don't fool around or jump back and forth repeatedly.
If the participant has not shown up as it's time to play then defeat may be applied.
A participant is required to leave the server after his match has finished; unless admin allowed him to stay.
Money transfer is performed using paypal, make sure you have an account.
We do not bear responsibility for experienced lags, whether they are caused due to your connection or hardware issues. However, if it heavily affects your game, you can request a rematch. It's only possible with opponent's agreement.
It's strictly prohibited to quit from the Cup particulary when you have advanced from the first round. Violating this rule will get you banned from one or multiple further cups.
It's recommended to use your real nick on the server so that you are recognized.
Disobeying admin's instructions may get you desqualified or banned from one or multiple Weekly Cups.
Weekly Cup rules can be updated and differ from each other, depending on format and theme. It's highly recommendable to check out the rules every new edition.[/slide]
