(17:48:42) *** TOURNAMENT GUIDELINES ***
(17:48:42) Breaking the following rules may result in punishment:
(17:48:42) #1: Team revealing or scouting in tiers other than Challenge Cup, Battle Factory, or Metronome will result in disqualification.
(17:48:42) - Scouting is watching the battle of someone else in the tournament to gain information.
(17:48:42) - Team revealing is revealing any information about other entrants' teams.
(17:48:42) - Players are always permitted to watch the final match of any tournament.
(17:48:42) #2: Have a team and be ready when you join, otherwise you can be disqualified.
(17:48:42) #3: Tierspamming, repeatedly asking for tournaments in the chat, is not allowed.
(17:48:42) #4: Do not abuse the tournament commands.
(17:48:42) #5: Do not leave or forfeit in a tournament you are in just so you can join another or to give your opponent a 'free' win.
