All maps are played with the Hardcore Headquarters Set – Up on this website. Rematch of all maps with incorrect set up.
Only 5 players from each team are allowed in the lobby. 10 players in lobby max.
You’re allowed to sub with another player mid map as long as they have jumped out before you spawn in.
Players must not spectate the opposite team for more than 10 seconds or forfeit will be rewarded to that team.

Maximum of 9 players on rosters.

Host

Host must run a connection test. ( HQ til first cap is completed on Hackney Yard )
Both leaders must agree on the host
The host can only be changed twice ( total of 3 hosts for the cb ).
If both leaders agree to host and players start lagging in the first map , both teams must finish the map before a new host can be found. ( Unless you cant move )
If lag gets too bad mid round and you can barely move , please clip or take a video of this happening as proof ( if host doesn’t end the game ) , find a new host and restart the map.
Game recording must always be on for proof of maps won ( unless team has proof of maps won ). This will be included in wrong set up n will be deemed a forfeit map.
Host is not allowed to end the map for any reason unless they have the wrong set up , a random player joins or a player times out before 30 seconds.
If you end a map for any reason thinking you can take forfeit and this isn’t rewarded by admins the map will be rewarded to the opposite team.

Map Picking

In Pre-Game Lobby

Maps that are allowed / banned are in the ” Allowed Items ” and ” Banned Items ” page on this website.
After first map teams have only 5 minutes to get players into the lobby before map starts.
Once the 5 minutes is up host must start the next map.
Even if your players are AFK host must start when that 5 minutes is up.
If a player cant join the lobby , this 5 minutes doesn’t come into affect. Tho the team with the player who cant join only has 15 minutes to find a new host or get that player to join the lobby otherwise the original host must start the map with the players you have.
At the start of cb and after every map is completed either clan leader ( whoever has the L clan tag ) or the host must go into game chat until the next map starts.

Clan Tags

Host – H or Host
Leaders – L
Clan Members – HQMC
Both teams must have a leader clan tag , if failed to do so forfeit the maps with incorrect clan tag. ( Dont have to be a leader to have the clan tag just make sure you have one in the lobby ).
They will pick the clans map , responsible for video calls and MUST have a mic.
If one team is caught with the wrong clan tag then it will be forfeit rewarded to the other team.
If both teams are caught with wrong clan tag then it’s rematch of all maps where they were incorrect.

Timing Out

If a player times out during the start of a map ( this is all maps not just first map ) , the host must end the game and wait for that player to join back into the pre-game lobby.
If a player times out after 30 seconds of the map starting , a new player can join into the lobby ( must have clan tag set ). Otherwise that same player can join back but must only have 5 on your team.
If the host times out , that map must be replayed from the start.

Game Interference

If a random person joins the lobby but does not kill anyone and jumps straight back out , the map is allowed to continue. ( Allow 10 seconds for this player to leave the lobby ).
If a random person does not jump out , kills another player or interferes in any way the game must be ended. Kick the random from the pre-game lobby and start the map again continuing on with the points you won. ( As long as you have photo evidence of points won ).

Claiming Your Win

Post the maps that you won onto our HQ and tag ” Emily Corcoran and another admin ( if you want ) “.
State what Pool you’re in , what clan you versed and what the map score was ( 2-0 / 2-1 )
If given forfeit you must provide a screenshot of the other team giving you forfeit for the match and include what Pool you’re in and what clan gave you the forfeit.
Please do this within 12HR of your set cb otherwise you’ll have to rematch that clan.

Reason’s To Take Forfeit

When taking forfeit , if you know a team has done something for you to take forfeit whether using something banned , knifed , hardscoping , etc you MUST end the game straight away with proof as to why you’re taking forfeit. If you wait until the end of the map / cb this forfeit will not be rewarded. ( Please message leaders either by PSN , our leaders chat and / or private message as proof you asked them to end it )
A hardscope is 2.5+ seconds.
No more hardscoping then quickly scoping out then back in. Forfeit will be given to the opposing team if this happens.
Players must watch their killcams and tell the host to end the game in order to claim a forfeit. ( Please message leaders either by PSN , our leaders chat and / or private message as proof you asked them to end it )
If the hardscope exists , the team caught hardscoping will forfeit that map.
If the hardscope does not exist , the team that made the hardscoping accusation will forfeit that map.
If a player uses a knife to stab , the host must end the game and the knifing team will automatically forfeit that map. Proof must be shown in your rank claim / defend post that there was a knife. ( Must end straight away , if played on forfeit won’t be given )
If a player is on stand down and plays in a cb that team will forfeit all maps that player played.
If anyone plays on a misspelt psn be forfeit all maps that player played ( unless it’s admin error )

Admins

Facebook Video Calling

All players must have Facebook.
All members from each clan must have a way to video call or they can not play in this comp until they do , no excuses will be tolerated.
If you want to video call someone on the opposite team for catfishing you are to ask them not to leave the lobby and message them on psn before the map ends.
The team must complete the video call as soon as the map has finished.
A player will have 5 minutes to accept a video call request once the map has ended.
If this person refuses / leaves after being asked to video call , it will result in an automatic forfeit for each map the person played in and they will be placed on a week stand down.
The weeks will go up every time they fail to video call.
You can only video call up to 3 members of the other team.
If you or your team is caught catfishing these consequences will be taken into action –
The player will be banned from this comp for 1 month. However , if they are caught again their punishment will be much more severe with the possibility of a permanent ban.
The team will be stripped of their rank and a ban for all the members who were involved in and/or had knowledge of the situation.
Admins may request to be added to chat to disprove allegations of the clan knowing.
