SC2BW Weekly Rules

• The following SC2BW settings are default: Unlimited selection: OFF, Automining: ON, Smartcasting: OFF.
  
• Both players are responsible for verifying settings before a game start. A player may leave a game and ask for restart if settings are disagreed upon as long as no player contact has been made in the game.
  
• Players may use different settings provided they both agree upon them.
  
• Participants are permitted to stream/cast games throughout the tournament.
  
• No cheating in any way. Includes stream cheating, playing under other players' accounts and any kind of 3rd party hacks.
  
• If an opponent is not present or does not respond within 15 minutes, use SC2BW channel to report or contact lalush.955 on battle.net.
  
• Every participant is responsible for providing their correct battle.net ID and identifier upon registration.
  
• Excessively abusive behavior in chat or in game may result in warnings and disqualifications.

Maps/Host Rules

• Please review the rules again for default map settings on unlimited selection, automining and smartcasting before hosting a map.
  
• Players must search for "SC2BW" in Custom Games when hosting maps. Maps in the arcade may be out of date. For your own convenience, please use "Create Game" as opposed to "Join Game" when creating a lobby in Custom Games.
  
• It is the player's responsibility to check the map pool. If a player protests an incorrect map after playing a game on it, the game will not be replayed. A player may only leave and restart until the point where player contact is made in the game (e.g. scouting) and before 2 minutes have passed.
  
• Maps cannot be played twice in a series.

• If a participant disconnects after 2 minutes and first contact has been made, the opposing player may decide whether the game should be restarted or not. Contact an admin under this situation.
  
• If the disconnected player had an obvious advantage upon disconnecting, contact an admin in SC2BW channel who will then review the replay.
