1. Matches require a Minimum of 10 players on a side to play. If a team does not have 10 players at the 7pm start time, each team will wait 5 minutes for late arrivals. If a team cannot produce 10 players by 7:05, then that team will forfeit and all 3 maps will be scored as losses. If both teams do not have 10 players, then all 3 maps will be scored as ties. The teams can still play if they wish, but the match will be considered a tie.
2. Captains of both teams must record demos. At the start of the match the captains must enter in the console "record <demo name>", at the end of the match, they enter "stop" at the console. Please zip the file and use yousendit.com to mail to shacknewsTF2 gmail account.
3. If there is a server problem, scoring issue, or some other event that impacts the game play: Captains must send in demos of the issue. If the match needs to be replayed, it will occur during the next week, before the next match. Otherwise it will be scored as losses for both teams.
4. On each map, Captains, or their designee will melee battle using an agreed upon class to determine red/blu. The winning team of the melee decides which color they wish to start.
5. Uneven teams & Joining players: If the teams become unbalanced during gameplay, the team with more players should drop one to spectator after 3 minutes (as the disconnected player may return), to even up the teams. If the disconnected player returns, they should coordinate with the opposing player in spectator to rejoin at the same time. Likewise, teams start the match with 10 or 11 players, and they have late arrivals, each team must coordinate a simultanious join of players from each team.
