Rules:
1 - Seeding
DMRS3 has space for up to 64 participants. After the sign-ups are closed, players will be ranked according to their highest rating on the AoE2 DE DM 1v1 ladder and placed in a traditional bracket. Please play all games with your most known name, which should be the name you signed up with.
2 - Respecting Deadlines
All players must respect the tournament schedule and times for each round. No excuse will be accepted for failing to play in the specified time. If a player has not arrived 20 minutes after the scheduled play time their opponent will be granted an Admin Win.
3 - Admin Times
If both players cannot come to an agreement in scheduling their match, the staff will analyse the situation, schedule and time zones in order to add a viable Admin Time that suits both players to the best of our ability.
4 - Respect & Fairplay
Every player must respect their opponent. Bad behavior (determined by staff) will result in a warning or may lead to immediate disqualification of the player. Any insult, racism or flaming will not be tolerated. Laming and mind games in-game are allowed.
Players are also requested to limit the time between games as much as possible to make the experience as smooth for everyone as possible.
5 - No Smurfing
All players have agreed to the No Smurf rule. Each player must submit all relevant player usernames for Admin discussion. Smurfing and account sharing is not allowed. Any discovery of the aforementioned will result in player's disqualification and ban from future events.

Subsequently, facts will be analysed and a final decision made. If an Admin is not around at the time of playing and the players cannot agree on a result, continue with the rest of the series and if the series is tied 2-2 at the end, then the final game shall be rescheduled.
