Creating, Posting and Filling Games
We will have rounds starting every 2 weeks, on a Sunday (see schedule). The clan contacts are responsible for creating their clan’s (home) games, inviting their players and ensuring the games are filled correctly and in a timely manner. Merely inviting players does not mean that the game is filled!
At the start of every round the home clan contacts have to:
After Thursday, 18:00 hrs. CC Time, the away clan contacts have 5 more days to:
IMPORTANT: Communication is key!
Clan contacts should contact the TO's if they have a problem meeting a deadline and/or if they know they are going to be absent for a certain period of time. We may be able to help to avoid missing a deadline by granting an extension or privileges to the second clan contact, for example. Other clan members should warn their clan contacts if they see a deadline may be missed. If the clan contacts are unresponsive, clan members should contact the TO's.
Notes:
At the start of every round the home clan contacts have to:
- Create the home games
- Post the home games (game numbers only) in the appropriate thread
- Invite the home players and make sure the games get filled
After Thursday, 18:00 hrs. CC Time, the away clan contacts have 5 more days to:
- Invite the away players and make sure the away games get filled

Notes:
- To avoid ongoing games from having to be remade it is strongly recommended that the away clan contacts check the home games for errors before inviting their players.
- It is optional to send a PM to the opposing clan contacts with the games and/or assigned players.

The TO will NOT be checking this, so it is up to each Clan to check their oppositions' games.
- For a game to be remade it must be brought to the attention of the oppositions main contact and the TO before the start of round 2
- Any game that is remade after being registered in the database, and before round 2 of the game starts, has to be posted in the appropriate thread in a new post. That post also has to state which game it replaces.

- If 2 sets of games are created and posted, the set posted first will count as the official set of games.
- Any issues arising from both clan contacts having privileges, such as creating, posting, filling 2 sets of games, missing deadlines because of a misunderstanding between clan contacts, etc., falls under the responsibility of the clans.
- Any problem arising from both contacts having privileges will result In the immediate removal of the privileges of the second contact.
- Note:
- A list of clan contacts with privileges will be posted in the corresponding division threads.
- If a clan leaves CL12, after it has begun, for whatever reason(s) all results involving this clan will be annulled. The clan will not be eligible to enter CL13, unless issues that caused the abandonment are addressed to the satisfaction of the TO.
General Comments
Comments:
- Clans are encouraged to self-police and solve minor issues between themselves. However, if both clans are unable to resolve the perceived rule break / minor issues between themselves, please report this by PM to JPlo64 & Jdsizzleslice. If this matter is one of the time sensitive issues that must be reported before round 1 has finished, contact the other party with a copy to the TO's.
- For any issues and/or questions with regards to the clan database, please contact JPlo64 and Jdsizzleslice.
- The TO's will do their best to keep on top of things, send general reminders, check for inconsistencies, etc. However, the ultimate responsibility for following the rules rests with the clan contacts.
- JPlo64 and Jdsizzleslice, the Tournament Organizers, are ultimately responsible for running CL12. If you disagree with a ruling by anybody else in this tournament, please contact JPlo64 and Jdsizzleslice. If you disagree with a ruling by the TO's, please contact Lindax (Clan Tournament Director) and davekettering (Clan Department Head).
- The format and the rules are subject to change if deemed appropriate by the TO.
