Veto system

Final stage matches' maps are decided by veto
The upper team shown on the bracket may start the veto
After the map has been decided, teams must decide the starting side by knife round - see the "Knife round rules" for details
At the Final BO3 match, the team coming from the Lower Branch may choose the first map - the other team chooses the side they want to start at. The second map will be chosen by the team coming from the Upper Branch - the other team chooses the side they want to start at. The third map will be decided by regular veto (excluding the 2 maps they've already been playing at) - the team coming from the Upper Branch may start the veto. Knife round will decide the starting sides.

Knife round rules

When you are to start a knife round, stand in your teams, a reasonable length away from the other team (either spawns, both ends of mid, either end of a site, etc.)
After that, decide on a timestamp from where you start the kniferound
Winner of the knife round will decide which side they want to start at

Penalties / Disqualification

If any player of a team gets caught on cheating - the whole team gets banned from our cups for 1 year
Using known bugs - Round loss in the round when the bug abuse has happened
If a team can't show up on time for a match (estimated match start + 10 minutes) that will result in a no-show (1-0 for opposing team)
Inappropriate language can be penalized (round loss/match loss/disqualification) by the Cup Admin at his/her will. He/she must warn the team for their last chance before penalizing the team

Technical issues

If the server crashes, teams must wait for the server to restart and then resume playing from the score when the game has crashed (if a crash occurs in the middle of a round, that round must be restarted)
If server is restarted because of a crash, we can't do anything about cards and grenades so teams will have all the weapon cards and grenades back again
Each team has 1 allowed pause / round. They may use it only for solving technical issues or tactics. A pause can't be longer than 2 minutes.
