---------------------------------------------
Forfeits/No Shows
The DEFAULT match time is 9 pm EST. you may ATTEMPT to reschedule but there is no guarantee. IF you can not come to an agreement on a scheduled time, the team that shows up to the 9 pm default time will be the winner. If you have a forfeit, contact one of the Admins / League Admins via ticket at theHelpCenter with proof of attempted contact of the team missing in action. Document all of your conversations with opponents regarding scheduling with screen shots. If you forfeit 3 matches, you are dropped from league play.
New Rule on scoring for forfeit wins :
Winning team will get 6 points ( thats 6 round wins if its snd and 6 flag caps for ctf
Forfeiting team will get -3 ( yes negative ) so instead of them just getting 0 they will be penalized -3. OUCH
Get too many forfeits and we will remove you from the league , if you have to forfeit at least make the effort to let the other team know this will weigh heavily on our decision to keep or remove your team from league play. All point deductions for forfeits are up to administrator's discretion.
