Each participant MUST register individually and must accurately complete all required registration information. Once registered, individuals must form squads of Four (4) players (minimum AND maximum of 4 – no alternates allowed) before they can officially join the competition and begin competing with other squads. NOTE – due to the “ladder” format of the Competition, players and squads may register and join the Competition after the Competition has begun, up to the end of the ladder stage of the Competition. Each squad must select a squad captain prior to joining the Competition who will be the primary point of contact for Competition logistics. LIMIT: One (1) registration per person. All registration information submitted becomes the property of Tournament Producer, Sponsor, and Mindshare and will not be returned. Tournament Producer’s computer will be the official time clock for registration, and the official time zone for the Competition will be Eastern Standard Time.

How to Play: The Competition will begin on Monday, March 10, 2008 at 3:01 PM EST and will end with the last match on Monday, May 12, 2008 or when there is only one (1) squad remaining. Only valid registered participants with full four-person squads will be eligible to compete. Tournament Producer’s decisions are final and legally binding as they pertain to this Competition.

Game and Platform: Players will compete by playing the videogame Frontlines®: Fuel of War™ on the Microsoft Xbox 360™ platform in an online match via the Microsoft Xbox Live® Gold service.

Tournament Stages: On Monday, February 28, 2008, valid registered squads will be able to begin joining the Practice Ladder, and will be able to begin playing practice matches. Practice matches will not count towards the final standings, but will be used to allow players to practice playing the game and using the GGL competition system.

Stage 1 (Ladder Stage): On Monday, March 10, 2008, at 3:01 PM EST all squads’ point totals from the practice ladder will be reset, and the official ladder competition will begin. Squads will start with 1000 points and will gain points for playing and winning matches. Matches are best of 1. At the end of the Stage 1 ladder competition on Sunday, April 6, 2008, the top 32 squads will advance to the Stage 2 Bracket.

Ladder Settings:
- 80 points awarded for a win (regular win or forfeit win)
- 20 points awarded for playing (win or lose) (i.e. if you play and win you get a total of 100 points (80 + 20), if you play and lose you get 20 points.)
- 25 points LOST if you decline a regular challenge (but there is NO penalty for declining an Instant Challenge)
- 50 points LOST if you forfeit a match
- 3-day “Challenge Active” period – this means that if you receive a challenge, you must respond (either by accepting or proposing alternate times) within 3 days or the challenge is automatically marked as a “Decline” and you lose 25 points.
- INACTIVITY: If you don’t play a match or challenge and opponent within 7 days, your squad is marked as inactive and you lose 100 points. You will continue to lose 100 points every 7 days that your squad remains inactive. Once inactive, you can re-join the competition, but you will not be given back the points lost while inactive.
- You can only challenge a particular squad once within 7 days.
- You can only challenge other squads within a certain range of your squad in the ladder: either 10 spots up or 5 spots down in the ladder, OR with 20% of your squad’s points up the ladder or 10% of your squad’s points down in the ladder (in other words if your squad had 1000 points you can challenge squads up to 1200 points or down to 900 points).

Stage 2 (Bracket Stage): At the conclusion of the Stage 1 Ladder Competition, the top 32 squads will be placed in a 32-squad bracket, seeded according to their standing in the Ladder Competition. The brackets will be played in single elimination format until two (2) squads remain. Matches are best of 3.

Stage 3 (Finals): At the conclusion of the Stage 2 Brackets, there will be two (2) squads remaining. The remaining squads will be flown to New York for a live final in the GamePlay HD television studio on the weekend of May 9-12, 2008 (date for live final may be changed pending studio availability). The live final will consist of one championship match.

Match Scheduling (Ladders): During the Stage 1 Ladder Competition, competitors schedule matches themselves through GGL’s ladder challenge tools. First, one squad challenges another squad in the ladder, proposing three dates/times for the match. The squad that receives the challenge then has the option of either accepting one of the proposed times, in which case the match is officially scheduled, or responding with three alternate times. If the original challenger does not agree to any of the alternate times, they may drop the challenge with no penalty, but if they accept one of the alternate times then the match is officially scheduled. ONLY SQUAD LEADERS CAN CHALLENGE OR RESPOND TO CHALLENGES. Matches once scheduled cannot be altered without the agreement of both squads and without notifying the Tournament Producer. Failure to show up to compete within 10 minutes of a scheduled match time will result in a forfeit loss (with point penalty) for the squad that does not show up, and a forfeit win for the squad that does. Declining a challenge without proposing alternate times will also result in a point penalty. Squads can challenge and play as often as they wish, within the guidelines of the ladder rules.

Match Scheduling (Brackets): Tournament game matches during the Stage 2 Brackets will be scheduled as follows. Each match will be assigned a time and date to be completed (“Completion Time”), which will be listed in the tournament brackets at http://frontlines.ggl.com. The two (2) opponents can complete their match at any time up to the Completion Time, or if they can’t agree on a time of their own, the Completion Time becomes the default time at which they must play their match. The squads can negotiate on the match time using the comments section of the “Match Details” page for their particular match at http://frontlines.ggl.com. The Tournament Producer will facilitate scheduling of all game matches as needed. Tournament game matches once scheduled will be FINAL and matches may only be rescheduled or delayed as allowed by the Tournament Producer in its sole discretion.

Players will forfeit their scheduled match if they are not present and ready to compete within ten (10) minutes of the scheduled time. The Tournament Producer will be the timekeeper, and the official time zone for the tournament will be Eastern Standard Time. *** NOTE – once a player is logged in, all times on the website appear in that player’s native time zone, chosen during the registration process. It is important that each player make sure he/she has set the correct time zone – players can edit their time zone through the “Edit Account” link.

Substitutions/Alternates: None allowed for this competition. If a player(s) need to be replaced due to console failure, hospitalization, or another serious incident occurs rendering a player (or players) unable to play, contact and admin to have that player replaced. (Note: An admin may ask for some form of proof so please have any ready upon request.)

Match Format: During the Stage 1 Ladders, all matches will be a single map only. During the Stage 2 Brackets, all matches will be best of 3 maps. In the event a map ends in a tie, restart the same map with the official game settings and continue to replay the map until a winner is determined.

Gamertags: You MUST use a valid Xbox Live Gamertag (NO GUEST ACCOUNTS), and you must include your Xbox Live Gamertag in your GGL profile. DO NOT change your Xbox Live Gamertag during the tournament. If you change your Xbox Live Gamertag without permission from a Tournament Administrator (“Admin”), you may be suspended or banned from the Competition.

Match Squad Size Requirement: The specified match squad size is required to participate in an official match (I.E. 3v4, 3v3, etc. are NOT legal in a 4v4 competition). Any Match played without the correct number of players will result in a forfeit loss for the squad without the correct amount of squad members. Additional notes: See Match Interruption below.

Match Interruption: If any player loses his/her connection before the map starts (during map load time for example) or before any kills are recorded, restart the map once the player has rejoined the game lobby or a substitute from the squad’s official roster has joined. If a player loses his/her connection mid game, continue playing as normal. If the host drops, the hosting squad will receive a forfeit for that map.

Match Hosting: The host must be agreed upon by all eight (8) players. You may test all eight (8) hosts until the best one has been determined. The host must be one of the players participating in the match. Default rule: During the Stage 1 Ladders, the squad who received the challenge will host the match. During the Stage 2 Brackets, the higher seed in the bracket will host the first map, the lower seed will host the second, and the higher seed will host the 3rd map, if necessary. Optional rule: If one of the players has an excellent connection that all of the players ping fairly to, both squads may agree to use that host for the duration of the match.

Sides: The squad who does not host chooses which side they would like to play.

Glitches/Exploits: Players are forbidden from using any game or hardware glitches or exploits to gain or attempt to gain an advantage. If an area within the game is accessible due to an exploit or bug in the map, then that location is off limits. If a player uses such an area to hide, the game Admin may incur a suitable penalty which may include a forfeit of the match or a disqualification from the tournament. If you are unsure whether an area is considered off limits, ask an Admin before your match. Use of any glitch or exploit will result in a forfeit loss and potential suspension or banning (for the player and/or the entire squad) from the Competition, at Tournament Producer’s discretion.

Competition Entry Requirements: In order to compete in the Competition, participants must have a retail copy of Fronlines®: Fuel of War™, and an active Xbox Live® Gold service account. No other versions of the game will be allowed. Participants must also be able and willing to travel to New York, NY to participate in the live finals.
