Bugged Map & Admin Restarts
A player can request bugged map restarts during the first 6 minutes (game time).
A bugged map is defined as the following for standard resource starts:
Gold: Less than 5 tiles of a main gold cluster are at least accessible on one side, extra gold are excluded.
Stone: Less than 4 tiles of a stone cluster are at least accessible on one side, extra stones are excluded.
Berries: Less than 4 tiles of a berry cluster are at least accessible on one side.
Animals: Spawned with less than the standard resources or the animals being trapped.
Graphical Mods
Any graphic changes that only affects the player's Age of Empires II are allowed.
Cheating
Cheating is not allowed under any circumstances. Players using any kind of cheat will be disqualified from any future Nili-Events.
Respect & Fairplay
Every player must respect their opponent. Bad behavior will result in a warning and may lead to immediate disqualification of the player. This tournament values not only great skills, but also sportsmanship and fairness. Any insult, non-PC behavior or flaming will not be tolerated. Laming and mind games in game are allowed.
Players are requested to limit the time between games as much as possible to make the experience as smooth for everyone as possible.
Punctuality
Players have to be on time. Being late will result in a 10% reduction of their prize money (stacking up and transferable to the main event). Being 15 min late will result in an admin loss.
Same ruling applies to sending recorded games to Robo.
No Smurfing
All players have agreed to the no smurf rule.
Stragglers & Laming
Players are not allowed to delete the straggler trees which spawn within 10 tiles of an opposing player’s Town Center. This rule does not apply if the straggler tree which is being deleted forms part of a wall for the defending player. "Laming" of fish is forbidden as well.
On maps where main forests are exclusively straggler trees, it is strictly forbidden to delete straggler trees from opponents (using the "palisade trick") unless they are being used as part of a mid-section of a wall.
Players are not allowed to steal a boar with a scout.
Every other form of laming is allowed.
Player colors
Players have to use the same color in every game of a series.
Picking a wrong color will result in a 3% reduction of their prize money (stacking up and transferable to the main event).
Sharing results
Players are not allowed to share any results before the official broadcast finished.
Players have to make sure that there is no live spectating option.

Streaming Policy
- All the games will be streamed on http://www.twitch.tv/nili_aoe who is also guaranteeing the prize pool.
- Due to the AoE2:DE spec situation, there will only be casting of recs
- Every caster is allowed to cast the recs (somewhat) simultaneously or at any time after Nili's broadcast
- I will try my very best to inform casters about stream times at least 24h ahead of time
- Players aren't allowed to stream their POV's live
- There is a subforum in my discord, where robo will post the recs
- It's appreciated to mention the NAC3 main event
