Starting Each Round

​

• Before the event, before every round, and at the end of every round you should be in the "Event Ready Room" Voice Channel

• Dion will announce the start of the round, give the end of round time, and begin a unified 85 minute timer.

• Go to the "Round-Pairings" channel to see what table you are assigned.

• Go to the GSP Discord Voice channel that corresponds with your table number.

• Confirm that your opponent is who you are assigned to play. 

• The player with the most secure internet connection should make the room.

  • Name the room - GSP# (Example: GSP54)

  • The number is the table number you are assigned.

  • Your room's password MUST be: GSP# (Example: GSP54)

    • The number is the table number you are assigned.

    • GSP should be capitalized

    • When setting up the room do not limit the number of seats so that judges and other staff can enter room as need.

• Share a YASB Link of your list with your opponent via discord direct message (REQUIRED) 

  • Links to other squad builders not allowed​.​​

• Spawn TWO copies of your squad, setting one in your play area and the other on the unused table

  • Spawn your list using 1 of the 2 methods below

    • Using the YASB TTS text import​

    • Pull the List from a recently saved disk

  • If you require extra color coding outside of what TTS automatically does, you must have it saved your in "saved objects" in TTS.

    • Additional color coding during set up of a game is not allowed for the sake of time

    • Once set up is complete, start your table clock on TTS and begin play
       

 

End of Round

​

• If the announced "End of Round" time arrives before your table timer finishes, your game is over.

• Only Finish the round if you have reached the System Phase. For the purposes of this event the Planning Phase will NOT constitute the beginning of a new round.

• When your game is complete, BOTH Players must enter/confirm the results on Table Top TO. ​Please double check for accuracy. This is the number 1 things that slows down events.

​

Tech Issues, Expectations & Resources

​

• All players signing up for the event MUST:

  • Know the basics of using Table Top Simulator​ (5 games minimum)
  • Communicate to their opponent Via Discord Voice chat
    • (Using headphones/headset is highly recommended)​
  • Report all results on Table Top TO
    ​

• Technology issues always happen but make sure to set yourself up for success by testing to make sure your devices can run/access all required programs and sites at the same time.
   

• Lack of knowledge of how to use TTS or personal technological failure will also result in you being removed from the tournament WITHOUT a refund.
   

• Worse Case Scenarios:

  • In the event of an event-wide TTS failure we will add time to the event clock and if need be, postpone matches to another date.

  • While we don't have control over all the issues, we will do our best to mitigate problems as they arise.
     

Rules Questions/Judges

This event will have judges available for questions throughout the event.

​

• If a judge is needed:

  • Both players should move over to the Judge Room voice channel.

  • Judges will speak with players and if need be join the players' game on TTS.
     

• DO NOT call a Judge for range/arc checks. TTS does all of this for you.​

  • The right click arc checker supersedes the visual arc checker.
