                    <h2>Format</h2>
                    The format of the tournament is Double Elimination, and every team starts off in the winner bracket. Losing a match in the winner bracket means you drop down to the loser bracket. Losing a match in the loser bracket means you are eliminated from the tournament. The finals of the tournament are the winners of the winners bracket VS. the winners of the losers bracket.

                    <h2>Lobby creation</h2>
                    Each lobby is created by a /vg/ masters admin. <strong>If the lobby is not set up according to the rules, the game isn't valid and will not count.</strong>

                    <h2>Server choice</h2>
                    When both captains have entered the lobby, the server is determined. First the captains can try to agree on a server to play on. If that does not work out, both captains select a server and the choice is made as per the schema below.

                    For coin flips, only the initial server is chosen, the rest of the matches will be alternating between the two servers. <strong>Coin flips are always done by a /vg/ masters admin.</strong>

                <div class="col-md-6">
                    <h2>Playtimes and showing up</h2>
                    After signups close, the brackets will be made together with the team captains. All matches are then assigned times based on this. After these times are decided, rescheduling is possible on the following conditions:
                    <ul>
                        <li>Both teams agree to reschedule</li>
                        <li>A /vg/ masters admin is available at that time</li>
                        <li>The rescheduled time does not delay the next rounds significantly</li>
                        <li>The reschedule is requested at least 24 hours before the scheduled match time</li>
                    </ul>
                    If any of those conditions are not met, you will have to play at the assigned time.
                    <p></p>
                    Lobbies are made 10 minutes before the scheduled playtime and the password will be provided at that time.
                    <br>Teams have 15 minutes to arrange for 5 players. If a team does not have 5 players after 15 minutes, the admins will assign a standin who may be really bad at the game.

                <div class="col-md-6">
                    <h2>Pick order and side</h2>
                    Coin flip decides which team gets to choose pick order or side. The team that loses the coin flip gets whichever is left.
                    <h4>Example</h4>
                    Team A wins the coin flip. They decide they want to pick the side. They choose dire side. Team B can now decide pick order. Team B selects first pick.
                </div>
                <div class="col-md-6">
                    <h2>Standins</h2>
                    A team can use a maximum of 4 standins, with the following restrictions:
                    <ul>
                        <li>Standins may not draft</li>
                        <li>Standins can be from another team in the /vg/ masters, as long as this does not cause issues with the schedules</li>
                    </ul>
                    These are not rules, but you are kindly asked to:
                    <ul>
                        <li>Use standins of approximately the same skill level as the rest of your team</li>
                        <li>Give standins the same role as the person they are replacing</li>
                        <li>Announce to an admin that you are using a standing before the lobby is made</li>
                        <li>Avoid using standins as much as possible</li>
                    </ul>
