Explanation
Rune 3 - 1 = 2: Carapace played on behalf of team Rune and his team won half of 6 points. A 1 point penalty was then assessed for playing with a different player. Thump4 Serp MAGA 5 - 1 = 4: Team name change and a 1 point penalty was then assessed for signing up and playing with a new player. AeronautS 3 - 1 = 2: Locust played on behalf of team AeronautS and his team won half of 6 points. A 1 point penalty was then assessed for playing with a different player. Plague Goats 3 - 1 = 2: Team name change and a 1 point penalty was then assessed for signing up and playing with a new player. Team name changes are authorized (no penalty). Interim team "IPWA" was removed, "BloodBogo" was given the 4 points but assessed a 2 point penalty for signing up a new player for their team. (reasoning: a built-in penalty was already felt due to the fact that the team was negatively impacted for not being able to earn more points with their normal players.) Team "AeronautS" given 2 points for trying to participate but not being able to participate and therefore not being able add points while not knowing that a future rule would allow them to earn more points if one player of AeronautS had participated. This effect is only applicable to event #2 and will not be applicable for the final online event, as it will be a requirement that at least one player of any team must participate (on their team's behalf) in order to contribute to their team's point totals, albeit under a 1 point penalty. Minor point penalties were assessed in the first event for failure of some teams to follow the tournament rules. 1 point was deducted from AeronautS for using an invalid ezquake version 1 point was deducted from Ragnarok for switching team players after tournament start-time 1 point was deducted from Ragnarok for using an invalid ezquake version) Compare head-to-head matchups. If no head-to-head matchups available then latest participation takes precedence.
