During a match, if a lagger causes his opponet to miss a combo and the lagger comes back with an infident combo that takes more than 40% of the none laggers life bar, then the match will be invalid and will be replaced by a rematch. If this problem prosist in a match three time in a row, the opposing person is the winner.
If lose of connection occurs, then the match will be restarted. If the person that lost the connection the first time loses the connection again, then the match will be rescheduled. During the rescheduled match, if the problem prosist, then the connection loser forfeits and the opposite person wins the match.
Player Verification
After signing up for the tournament, you will recieve an email confirmation code to verifiy your identity. This code will be used before each match starts and will be recorded. If the confirmation code doesn't match the records for the player, then that player can not play. If you lose your confirmation code, tell the host and he will email it to you once more. If you can't not provide the confirmation code after being sent to the email that the player has specified, then that player will be considered an imposter and the match will be forfeit on their behalf.
After each match is completed, the winner will recieve a new code for their next bout. This is so that the loser in the previous match can not impersonate the player scheduled to contend. This process will continue until the end of the tournament.
