Rules

General
Writing English in the #ID2EC channel is mandatory. Since we are an international community we will only allow English in the channels. Talking native languages will be severe punished.
Should you be in a team with 5 people who speak the same language you are free to talk your own language in Ventrilo.

Game facilitation
To cut down the time wastage from channel to in-game, all players must not be afk or away at this time, he or she may be punished for time wasting, if the game do not proceed from channel to in-game by 8Mins ( Could lead to ban, after several times ) Which the team could decide to truant a player if hes not in game and ventrilo by 10Mins.

Ventrilo
Joining game & Ventrilo: Ventrilo is mandatory in every game. Not joining ventrilo will be punished with a 2 hours ban. All players must be on ventrilo asap or within short time period after the teams are confirmed, they are also to proceed and join the correct Ventrilo channel, preferably the one their captain/leader is in. If player were asked to join ventrilo only after several persuasion or taking up to a period of time missing from ventrilo, he/she will be ban with level 1, consecutive times will lead to higher ban level.

A mic is very important in ID2EC, in order to keep up the team play. All [Host] and higher ranked must have mic, or his access should be removed! ID2EC wants more interaction between players and breaking the ice for those who are more introvert/shy.

Game rules in ID2EC

When the game has started inside, both team can only have a pause period of up to 2 minute or so.

There are no item restrictions.

Creep skipping is not allowed, meaning you may not attack the enemies building without creep support. If you reached the building with creeps you are though allowed to continue attacking it even if the creeps are killed. If you reached the opponents base together with allied creeps, you may attack all buildings, and you do not have to cancel your attack if your creeps have been killed.

Behavior

Respect is playing a major role in #ID2EC You may be the best in the world, but don't let your arrogance overcome yourselves. Respect each others skill and person. If you don't like a respective person, try to compromise or deal with it in a mature way.
Moderators in the channel will NOT allow any kind of flames or disrespect towards anyone. Racial slurs and heavy flame will result in a severe punishment.

Captain system
In a challenge game, the captain selected will be the one who accepted or initiated the challenge in channel. All the players in team must listen and heed his advices and command in the running of the game. In most situation, the captain should be Captain( Rank ), top rated in startgame, or they can be Staff or even host.

In cases where they cannot decide on choices (more than 2 equal rank etc), they should use -roll to decide. It's also encouraging to give a competitive seasoned player with great leadership to guide the game and vote him as captain in-game, however we also encourage new player to take up the roles and responsibility of running a game.

Vary on each situation, captain cannot force a player to do extreme or unreasonable task. At all times, players must understand their responsibility and in-game/hero's role, they are to contribute to the game without having the captain to emphasize. For instance, support heroes buy chicken, upgrading of bird and warding to de-warding the map. Players are encouraged to update their situation to captain when they faced difficulty to fulfill their role, so that the captain can make other changes and decision in-game.

Modes
Modes: In draft, the captain are to assign heroes and roles for players, players must listen to captain's calls and take up the hero they are given. Player can ask for swap of heroes only after they are assigned, they cannot immediately pick whichever hero they want to use.

In SD, players are supposed to type in ally chat or using ventrilo, of the 3 heroes they have in hand and for captain to decide and pick whatever heroes for the team.

In CM, Captain are supposed to on picker color (Blue or Pink) preferably or the user have to listen to what the Captain wish to ban or pick. Similar to draft, player's heroes and roles will be assigned by Captain.

In Mode of Draft, ARDM and CM, Captain can control team player's swap of heroes and choose the hero they want for themselves. But in Mode SD, Captain cannot force or control team player's swap of heroes, but as mentioned, Captain can choose what hero for the player to use in SD.

As there will always be a winner in the game, the team should not blame the fall of the game to the Captain, but working along to producing a better GG in the end. If the Captain couldn't met up to expectations, he/she will eventually not be selected to lead, or ranked Captain may also lead to demotion based on situation and decisions from Admins & Manager.

The captain system is a guide for ih-game improvement, it does not need to be follow exactly to be deem as violation to league rules when someone pointed out a simple flaws that have no effect towards the overall outcome of the game

AIM: The main objective is to make sure everyone join the game and ventrilo in the shortest time. A Captain system to organize and synchronize the structure of a team-game, facilitate in-game movements to improvise strategies and improving teamwork in the end. A cooler community with respect & goodwill and fun to play in.
