Structure

This will be a basic 3v3 tourney. Teams will be made via a captain draft. The highest rated players will be picked to be captains, they will then go from lowest to highest picking their next players. All games will be played on FAFBeta. We will use global rating for this tourny. If there are conflicts then points as of June 23 will be used.

Vetos:

3 alternating vetoes each, low seed vetoes first. High seed picks map 1. Low seed picks map 2. Players veto down for the last map. All maps are viable to veto on the 3rd game.

There is a pool of 13 maps and maps will be selected using a veto and pick system. This means each team has 3 vetos, with the lower seed in the group vetoing first in an alternating pattern. (ie lower seed, upper seed, lower seed, upper seed). Next the higher seed will select the first map, the lower seed the second map, and if necessary teams will resume vetoing maps until only 1 remains with the lower seed vetoing first.

No faction veto will be used for this tournament.

Once a map is picked for a round, the team that selected that respective map will confirm their team setup (who is playing slot 1 and 2) and the lower seeded team will then proceed to pick the slot setup they wish to play.

For mapgen, both teams can enter the lobby and view the map prior to sending in their vetoes. Each team now gets 1 reroll, but must use the rerolled map. Players must host with the
tournament settings on when using map gen.

To clarify map picking and faction veto:

Figure out whether you use the upper or lower bracket pool.
Lower seed (as shown by the position in the group) vetoes first map
Higher seed vetoes next map
Lower seed uses next veto
Higher seed uses next veto
Lower seed uses final veto
Higher seed uses final veto
Higher seed then picks the first map to play from the list of maps in the pool that have not been vetoed
Lower seed picks the second map following the same rules
In the event of a tie, players veto down the remaining maps until 1 remains with lower seed going first
The winner reports the results (including losses and tie games) to their group's tournament director in the IRC channel

Rules

Late players will be given a sub of equal or lesser rating if available, if not they will play down a player or forfeit.
The captain on the higher seeded team will host each game.
Prize money will be split equally between all players on a team.
All games will be played on FAFBeta
