that the game would definitely have been won by one player an administrator may rule
the game in favour of said player. Should the game be too close to call, it will be
replayed.

tell the opponent about this before pausing. After pausing the player must let an
administrator know.
· If a game is paused without a reasonable explanation such as a technical difficulty the
game might result in a forfeit.
Racepicking
· Each player signs up to the tournament with one set race. If a player wants to change
the race before a match, an administrator must be notified, and the new race must be
played throughout the whole match. The administrator must be told at least 30 minutes
before scheduled match start, or as soon as the previous match ends.
· The administrator will then tell the opponent.

QUICK SYNOPSIS: It was a dark night, the ancient pyramids of Giza only just visible in the light of the sprawling
city of Cairo. Suddenly black storm clouds appeared, and the light of the city seemed to just get swallowed
up. There was a flash of lightning and Zak, a recently orphaned young boy, appeared deep within a secret
chamber of Khufu’s pyramid. Zak and his apparent aunt and uncle have come from the planet Terrah to seek
safety,
a life free from further tragedy... but Zak will not be so lucky. He is hunted all the way to a farm in remote
New South Wales where he lives until the age of 14.
Here, Zak is loved and yet alone, powerful and yet helpless, intelligent and yet ignorant, wanting to give friendship
and yet
without friends. What good is there in safety if there is no life? Soon Zak must choose as his life is thrown
into confusion as death follows him. But who is responsible and why? There are no bad guys, no good guys
and the only person Zak truly trusted confesses to the most unimaginable crime Zak could have conceived.
And everything revolves around one word, an ancient word, a word that predates computers by thousands
of years... Avatar.
Join Zak as his preconceptions are shattered and he must assume nothing as he uncovers a system of suffering
and manipulation beyond anything he dared imagine. Can good people deliberately commit evil
acts so good can result?
how far is this from chatswood station, never being there and which line, directions from burwood pl0x ?
its about a 1-2min walk from Chatswood station, from Burwood catch a train on the north shore line (train that are heading to Hornsby) its about a 35min trip one way kinda hard to explain where it is its opposite the pedestrian entrance to Westfield google map that shiz!
