Lodging Complaints on a User
If you catch someone breaking the rules, send a clip to an admin. We cannot suspend people without proof.
GAME AVAILABILITY
If you will not be able to play your game, please let an admin know and we can set you to autopilot. That means that your opponent will play your CPU operated team.
If you contact a user and do not get a response in 24 hours, please let us know.
If you would like to get a force win, just let any of the commissioners know.
DISCONNECTS
If the outcome of the game has already been decided when the game gets disconnected, the team that was winning will get to replay the game against the computer (the team that was losing will be put on autopilot).
A game has to be at least in the second half for this rule to take effect. Please use your best discretion about whether a game’s outcome has been decided. If there is a dispute, message an admin.
