Disconnections
When a game ends prematurely for whatever reason, two things can happen:

If the players don't come to an agreement a referee will make the decision for them after watching the replay. The referee's decision will be final and without discussion so the tournament can go on as smoothly as possible.
Additional Tournament Rules
Be respectful. Inappropriate or disrespectful behavior will result in disqualification or other disciplinary actions as the referees see fit.
Using "Burn Dat House" (Slugga boys ability) on power farms is prohibited.
Failing to follow this rule will result in a game loss.

What should a referee do:
- Be in the tournament chat room some time before the tournament starts.
- Help people find their opponents.
- Resolve disputes between players after watching the replays.
*With exception of eliminated players when there would be a lack of referees.
Streamers
Every streamer out there is welcome to cast the games they want.
Please do not crowd a lobby with too many streamers.
Special thanks to Caeltos, Lulgrim, Indrid, Dark Riku, Uncle Milty, Codex, Torpid and Floid for helping me put things together.

A player must choose 3 commanders while registering to the tournament.
These 3 commanders are the only ones a players is allowed to use during the course of the tournament. While registering for the tournament, a player must pick 3 commanders that he will be playing in the tournament, but can't pick anything beside them. He also has to state his teammate's commanders. The teammate only has to quote the registering player's message and confirm it in the registration thread. Player can pick any one of those 3 commanders at any time and must let the other player know, what his pick is.
You may also enter as random instead of picking 3 commanders.
You will be locked into random for all your games then.
In the first game one of the players from the team that was in the top of the bracket picks his commander first, then both players from the enemy team pick their commanders. First player's teammate is last to pick his commander.
In the second games, the situation is reversed. First, a player from the team that was in the bottom of the bracket is picking his commander, then both players from the team that was in the top of the bracket pick their commanders, then the remaining player pick's his commander. If it is a bo5.
In case of going to the last game (3rd or 5th, depending on a format), remaining victory points from the previous games will be summarised and the team with more remaining will choose in what order of the previous 2 they want to pick.
