* any
enemy player, and the item is now considered his.
The enemy hero who picked the dropped item is not allowed to give the item to his allies, he can use it during the game or he can sell it for gold.
*
any ally player, who MUST RETURN THE ITEM TO ITS OWNER WITHOUT ATTACKING/USING IT (not even neutral creeps), or he can place the item near the fountain so the owner can take it!!
-It is not allowed to purposefully suicide to drop an item for another player.
-It is not allowed to block creeps with the help of spells, such as fissure, sprout etc. It is only allowed to use the hero model to intercept with creeps.
-It's prohibited to intentionally pause and resume the game during there's a gank/group fight. The team will be disqualified from the tournament if found doing so frequently.
Disconnections
-Each team will be allowed 5 saves each and encouraged to use them, this will compensate for disconnections.
-The game MUST be saved
immediately after first blood, and this will not account for the given 5 saves.
-If a player disconnects before first blood has been drawn, match restart.
-If a match is restarted, everything must still be the same, heroes must return to their original lanes with the same items; however, on initial creep contact, the players will be allowed to do as they wish.
-Disconnection after first blood: If a savegame has been made within the last 15 minutes, then go back to the last saved game (in case the game couldn't be saved immediately after first blood, the game continues without the disconnected player(s)). If not, then the game continues without the disconnected player.
-If the same player disconnects more than 3 times, then the opposing team may choose to continue the match without him.
It is allowed to use a disconnected hero, but it is not allowed to give his items to other players. The items may either stay on the disconnected hero, or be sold so the money is dispersed among the remaining players.
-If while the dropping window time is counting down on progress, one team member from the same side or opposing side dropped/left the game, the player(s) dropped will be marked one disconnect. Everyone else have to wait for the dropping window time, if he/she dropped, consider a disconect; otherwise, restart the game.
-In case of fatal error and disconection due to GGC bug, valid screenshot has to be provided, then load the last saved game or restart match if there is no saved game.
Before and after games
-Host has to be from North America. No exceptions.
-Teams should if possible try and find a neutral host suitable for both teams, this host will probably also be the referee. Make sure that you test the host for lag before the game commences.
-One team is Sentinel side and the other team gets to choose who has first pick. If the teams are not able chose who is what, you can ask the referee for a cointoss.
-If a host has been decided upon, the entire match will be finished with that host, unless both teams agree to change.
-If no host is available at the time, teams will decide a host from their rosters, if both teams unanimously agree that the host is good the game will commence, if not a new host will be chosen, be respective in this decision, the decision to keep or deny the host will be before the 2 minute mark, if it passes that, time that current host will be chosen.
-If the teams cannot agree upon a host then the host will be decided by a coinflip conducted by the referee.
-If a team does not show up 10 minutes after the scheduled time, the opponent will win by default.
-In the case of a missing player, the opponents have to wait for 10 minutes to give the other team the chance to reach him. After the time has passed, the team with the missing player has the choice of forfeiting or playing short handed (a game must start with at least 4 players on each team).
-If BOTH teams are missing, the grace period will increase to 20 minutes, if by then both teams still have not arrived, both teams will be disqualified.
-It is mandatory to save replays after each game by both teams! Failing in doing so will result in a warning and/or removal from the tournament.
-After a match has been finished, the winning team must report the result to an admin, and ALL replays, fatal error screenshot(s) and disconnection due to GGC screenshot(s) MUST be sent to
GG_NADT@Hotmail.com and StuntinxSoulja@hotmail.com
-If there are any doubts regarding a referee's decision, please contact admins of this tournament to resolve it asap.
Hopefully there will be referees watching this game to prevent the breaking of any rules, if not, replays will be watched to ensure no rules were broken. The admins will check on the replays to ensure a fair game.

Please, do not abuse the exceptional games date; we will only allow it for some circumstances if needed, and both teams must send the request to prove that it has been agreed upon.
If ALL teams are somehow able to finish on the first day of the tournament and are able to quickly contact the admins, the finals can possibly be hosted on the second day.
Remember To P.M. the times of the scheduled matches to an admin ASAP (If not possible, at least send it to a ref/host) so we can send a referee and/or a valid neutral host there. It will help admins to keep track of the group results efficiently.
We will absolutely try our very best to keep on schedule, so please remember to come by and look at the threads often.
The created groups will be in another thread, so it's easier to ask questions and follow what is going on.
Hopefully we can get all the teams by Sept 5th, this is what we are hoping to do. If evidently that we are unable to, we will extend the registration date and things will change, announcements will be posted here, or if needed, a new thread will be created.
