1. The Ladder

The ladder is officially known as the T:V Oceania 7 v 7 CTF Ladder.
Matches will be played as regular ("out of the box") T:V CTF in tournament mode, with the addition of GA's UCMod & Degrapple amendments.
If both captains agree then any other mod may be played instead.
The latest version of Antics will be used in all matches. Maps shall be picked from original retail pack, and / or BEML 4 thru 6 packs.

Challenging is done via posting an Official Match Thread (OMT) in this forum.

Declining is forFieting due to the nature of the ladder

Each team must consist of a minimum 7 active players to be on the ladder, with matches greater than 7 v 7 allowed upon such consensus of both team captains.
A team may challenge upwards, from 1 to 3 places at a time only, and must suggest 3 match date/time preferences, to be no later than 10 days from the challenge.
The Challenger also notifies 1st & 3rd maps + sides in the OMT.
The Defender has 3 days to accept the challenge, select the 2nd map + side, pick one of the suggested match date/times in the OMT, book the server (post server login details in the OMT & pm the Challenger captain admin details). Failure to do any of these may result in forfeiture.
Each round consists of best of 3 x 20 minute maps with cap limits ON, although if a team wins the first 2 maps, then the 3rd is not compulsory.
Matches should commence upon consensus of team captains within 10 minutes of the scheduled start time, and either captain may force start the match after that point, although we encourage some sportsmanship in this regard. If the challenger wins the match, it takes the defenders place on the ladder, and is immune to challenges for 1 week but may make their own challenge in the meantime. Accurate results must be posted by the losing team in the OMT within 24 hrs of the match.
Failure of the losing team to do so may result in further demotion on the ladder, although the winning team can take the initiative in posting results if they choose. The OMT in this forum is deemed the official communication and public record.
A challenged team can not be challenged again within the same challenge period (one match at a time plz!). Original position on ladder decided by order of registration.


2. Conduct

The ladder is to be conducted with best sportsmanship at all times.
The usual GA rules of conduct apply.
Hax & Xploitz not allowed.
Smurfing is strictly forbidden. Any team found guilty will be expelled from the ladder without mercy.
Unauthorised interference with any match will be dealt with severely, including possible banning from GA pubs. IFF is banned, Full screen radar is ok, Speed & Flag Timer Huds ok.
If you suspect any team of hax or xploitz, make a demo & take screenshots, which Captain submits to ladder admins. Admins will decide what action should be taken and their decision is final.
Slurring a team / member without evidence will not be tolerated.


3. Disputes

All disputes which cannot be settled between the teams / members involved shall be resolved by Ladder admins.
Admin decision is final and failure to comply may result in ladder penalties.
These rules are subject to amendment by the Ladder Admins. Ladder admins: Sithslayer, Coblos, Shar*Chi.
