• Players who were previously Platinum or last season are not allowed to participate.
• Winners of back to back BSG Opens are respectfully asked to not participate.
• Everyone will be checked for typical smurf activity designed to keep them in a lower league.
• Anyone found to be smurfing will be added to the BSG Hall of Shame so everyone can be aware of their shameful acts.

Battle.net group: "BSG Open"

Rules

• You must contact your opponent on Battle.net preferably by being in chat channel "sc2seaBSG" to play your match
• You have ~15 minutes to start your Round 1 match; anybody that is not contactable after 10 minutes will be disqualified. This 10 minute timeout rule applies throughout the tournament.
• You must play your main 1v1 ladder race throughout tournament.
• You must play all your games on SEA unless both players agree to play on NA and have informed an admin. You must both then report back immediately.
• Observers: Tournament admins or official streamers are always allowed and the only ones to observe your game
• Problems/Questions: When in doubt about anything, contact an admin
• Reporting Results: After the match has been played, you must report the result by pm to an admin
• Disconnects: If a player disconnects, use the 'Resume from Replay' feature to continue the game. If the player has gone offline completely, inform an admin and wait 10 minutes for them to return.
• Pauses: You must notify your opponent in game if you wish to pause. This pause should not exceed 5 minutes. Excessive pausing in game may lead to disqualification.
• Bad Manner will not be tolerated. Anyone caught BMing will be warned. Further offenses will lead to disqualification. Any racist, hateful or excessively derogatory language may lead to removal without warning. We are a friendly group and we'd like to see it stay that way.
• Replays: Should be saved at least until the following tournament. Anyone asked by admins to provide a replay who cannot do so will be disqualified.
• Anyone suspected of smurfing (playing another person's account, manipulating ladder to be in a lower league) will be thoroughly investigated and if found guilty, prizes will be stripped and they will be reported to Blizzard and added to the Hall of Shame.
• RANDOM players are not allowed to race pick unless an Admin has been informed a WEEK before for SELECTED matchups.
  
  EXAMPLE 1 - Player A vs Player B - Player A did not inform an Admin and race picks. DISQUALIFIED

At the moment, we only have 3 players (Japetto told me he couldn't make it) and there is no point continuing unless there's at least 4. Thus unless there are some last minute sign ups, this will be delayed until the Saturday two weeks from now.

1 more player required!

Update:

We now have enough players to do a round robin yayyyyy This will ensure everyone gets a good amount of game-time

If we get a few more players, I may consider doing a double elimination bracket, just so everyone involved gets some more games.

Bracket is now on Challonge: http://challonge.com/bsgopen_147

Sign-ups will be accepted until 10 minutes prior to tournament start.
