  1. TEAM RULES:
  2. Anybody may represent any room. However a roomauth must submit the team via the form ( http://goo.gl/forms/xRrr09CEq8 ) and must confirm with a room owner that they are happy for said team to represent the room. You may not represent more than one room.
  3. N.B. at present only one team is allowed per room and private rooms are not allowed to enter. This may be revised in the future if teams are required to reach a tournament compatible number (i.e. divisible by four). Global staff also note that "Help" and "Lobby" do count as rooms, under which you may submit teams if you do not wish to represent a particular room.
  4.  
  5. SUBSTITUTES: Substitutes are allowed if a team member cannot be present. Preferably roomauth, but the only fixed rule is that they may not be on another team.
  6.  
  7. Users hosting games may participate on a team for games they do not host. Users contributing to questions may not.
  8.  
  9. TIMEFRAME:
  10. Games will occur at 23:00 GMT (The UK is currently GMT+1). This can be adjusted +- an hour if both teams agree. Games will likely run though the month of May, the number of participants dictating the length of the tournament. Two games may occur per night if a significant number of entries are received.
