Signing Up Rules and Ladder Rules:

 

1. To participate, you need to have joined the site on (or before) August 3, 2011 AND have over 250 posts. This is restricted to PS3T.org members ONLY.

 

2. No glitching. No lagging. Play straight or don't play at all.

 

3. One of our lessons from Killzone, please post your PSN ID as well as your user name when you sign up. It'll make identification much easier.

 

4. The ladder will hold 32 players and will be single elimination. The first 32 members to sign up that meet the sign up requirements will be placed in the tournament. After the 32 spots are filled a reserves list will be kept for all additional sign ups. The event will span a total of 5 weeks with 16 games the first week, 8 the second week, 4 the third week, 2 the fourth week and the final and third place play off on the 5th week.

 

5. The event will start on Sunday October 2nd when the brackets are posted at 8:30 GMT. They will be randomized. You’ll have one week to get your games in. Scores for each week must be PM’ed to Tuff by the Saturday following the start of each week. The schedule will be as follows:

 

  • Week 1: Starts October 2nd. Final scores must be in by October 8th 8:30GMT
  • Week 2: Starts October 9th. Final scores must be in by October 15th 8:30GMT
  • Week 3: Starts October 16th. Final scores must be in by October 22nd 8:30GMT
  • Week 4: Starts October 23rd. Final scores must be in by October 29th 8:30GMT
  • Week 5: Starts October 30th. Final scores must be in by November 5th 8:30GMT

 

6. The brackets for the following week will be posted on the Sunday following the score deadline at 8:30 GMT. (See above for schedule)

 

7. It is your responsibility to organize and set up your matches within the 6 day span. No exceptions to this rule. If you fail to get your match in you automatically forfeit your match and one of the reserve members will be chosen to move on in the tourny (for continuity)

 

8. Tuffmuff will be your contact for this tournament. Any issues/concerns/score reporting etc must sent via PM to her. See rules below for more information.

 

Specific Game Rules:

 

1. It is up to you to decide who will host. The following settings must be used. It is up to each member to make sure the proper settings have been used. If they aren’t and you want to dispute the settings that the host created you will need to provide proof that they were incorrect (via photos) otherwise you’ll have to take your loss. There are no exceptions to these rules.

 

  • Game Mode: Ranked
  • Max DNF%: Any
  • Private Session: Yes
  • Playcall Style: Challenge Option
  • Fatigue: On
  • Injuries: On
  • Quarter Length: 6 Minutes
  • Game Skill: All-Pro
  • Game Speed: Normal
  • Accelerated Clock: 20 sec
  • Weather: On
  • Opponent Skill Level: Any

 

2. No custom made teams. Any team provided by the game is fair use EXCEPT the developers team (99 rated team) that appears randomly.

 

3. If a player drops out of the game once it has started for any reason (disconnect, lag etc) then you will forfeit the match. Absolutely no exceptions.

 

4. Once again your match must be completed within the time frame. If it is not and I do not receive your final score a reserve member will take the spot in the next week's bracket.

 

5. Final scores must be reported by BOTH members and sent to Tuff via PM. If there are any disputes over the score then photos of the final score will need to be provided. If visual proof is only provided by one member then that member’s proof will be used; if no visual proof is provided and the dispute cannot be resolved then both members will be disqualified. Please make sure to cover your bases and take photos for proof if you're concerned; otherwise your dispute will be dismissed.

 

6. In the event that both members from a bracket get disqualified for whatever reason a member from the "reserves" list will be allowed to take a spot in the next bracket. This occurence of this should be rare (because everyone should be on their best behavior) but the rule will be set in place so that we aren't left with a hole in the bracket for the following week. This rule is non-negotiable.

 

7. DO NOT post disputes in the forums. Disputes are to be handled via PM only. This will be strictly enforced and leaves you open to being disqualified.

 

8. There is a strict zero tolerance policy with this tournament. Meaning: if you are going to make allegations of cheating etc then you must provide concrete proof of the issue. If no proof is determined the claim will be dismissed. If further drama ensues then both members from the match will be disqualified, no questions asked. Additionally problems arising out of any misconduct during this tourny will disqualify you for participation in future tournaments. That includes unnecessary complaining, flaming, drama and/or the breaking of ANY rules stated here.

 

9. These rules are completely non-negotiable.

When do sign-ups expire? I want to sign up but am not sure I will have the game in time. So I'm not going to sign up until I have the game in hand.

 

The first week begins on October 2. You have until then.

 

What happens if we dont fill up all the slots?

 

We'll probably go with what we have. We still have a couple of weeks for sign ups.

Damn i would love to sign up, im a die hard madden fan! Im still kinda new to the site but if ya could bend the rules a little that would be great. Hard to put in 250 posts being i dont game as much as i use to. Well if ya reconsider Carbin15 is the id. thx.

 

Dont have the 250 posts but would like to join!

 

PSN: bigant321

 

The rules will not be bent. You guys have over a week to get your posts up. You have a long way to go but you can do it if you find places to contribute to. Don't spam. Good luck.

i also want to join but am low on posts... i've seen other tournaments and the post min. is usually 100... i could get my posts up to 100 but 250 really is stretching it here... i'm asking for the min. posts rule to be downed to 100... i actually had started a thread about a possible madden tournament in the forum a couple of weeks ago so would really like to play in this... thanks -matt

No PS3T tournaments had a 100 minimum post requirement, you must thinking of game nights. Rockets Must Die required 500 posts. These events are just one incentive to being fairly active. So I don't believe 250 is really stretching it.

The gaming nights minimum is 100. These tournaments, provided these two run smoothly and we continue them, will require a larger post count.

 

I'll say this again - the rule will not be changed. You have over a week to get your count up. Find some threads where you can be helpful and post. Don't spam. Otherwise keep an eye out in the Arena for future events.

 

On another note regarding the low numbers:

The tournament will definitely go on regardless of whether or not we reach 32. The rules may change a bit so if you're signed up please be aware of that possibility. Thanks guys :)
