VODS [HERE] and [HERE]

Registration closes at 6:45pm 18th April 2018 AEST (GMT+10)

Players must be in the Australian Anime Fighting Game Community Discord server during the tournament. Tune into the #netplay-pc channel. Sign up with the same name you'll use on that Discord.

Matches start at 7:00pm 18th April 2018 AEST (GMT+10)

The tournament is double-elimination. Matches consist of best-of-3 sets. Sets are best-of-3 rounds with a 99 second time limit.

The top 3 fight 5 sets instead of 3.

When there are fewer than 8 players, the format changes to Round Robin and all matches consist of 5 sets.

Matches are held password-protected player room(s). Participants will be asked to join a room to play their match and may be asked to leave at its conclusion to make space for the next match.

Upon completion of a match, players are to report the outcome in Challonge. Players may begin their matches as soon as they're available.

Other Rules and Arbitration (stuff I hopefully never have to go into)

• Participants who don't attend their first match are disqualified 10 minutes after the tournament starts. No-shows are to be reported to HybriDefiant to be properly removed from the bracket.
  
• Cheating results in disqualification and being banned from future events.
  
• In the case of win disputes, replays are to be submitted to HybriDefiant for review. Replays are found in GUILTY GEAR Xrd -REVELATOR-\SAVE\REPLAY.
  
• Poor internet connection is grounds for a loss or disqualification. Participants with poor connection (~7F+) can be reported to HybriDefiant and they will judge if the connection is poor enough to warrant a loss. Repeated reports of poor connection can lead to disqualification.
  
• Abuse is strictly not tolerated and should be reported to HybriDefiant. Perpetrators will be disqualified. Trash talk is okay but harassing someone after they ask you to stop isn't.
• Spectating matches is allowed only when initiated before or in between sets to avoid generating lag spikes. Please do not spectate when room capacity is needed to run matches.
  
• All other issues are resolved at HybriDefiant's discretion.
