Aequitas Files
It is necessary that the Aequitas file is uploaded after the match. The file is to be kept however 14 days and be made available on request of an Admin.

Should this be not done you must open a protest ticket after the 24 hours and within 72 hours after a match.
If the Aequitas file should not be available on request of an Admin, the player gets 3 penalty points, the team 2 penalty points per missing Aequitas file (a team can get a maximum of 4 penalties per match for missing Aequitas files).
If the requested file(s) already uploaded in the subsequent 24 hour period, the penalty points will be reduced to 1.

It is entirely up to the Admin if the match will be deleted or not.

Should a protest be opened before the end of the 24 hours uploading time, it will be rejected.

Config values and/or scripts that influence the game play fundamental to take a relevant advantage are forbidden!

**Exception binds/scripts:

nick change

demo function

screenshot (for PB screens)

weapon choose

grafic values (gamma, texture)

server values

Up to 3 penalty points for each forbidden script/bind, are found in an executable config. The responsible admin have to decide if this match can be rated or not.

If Aequitas uncovers wrong client settings in your config(s), it also would be punished, independently of the fact whether this config (script) was actually implemented!

The players must provide a server for the game themselves and come to an agreement on which server to use.
If they can't every team/player has the right to play one side (map/round) on their server if nearly equal conditions to both teams/players are foreseeable.
This right can be demanded at any time, yet under the conditions that the second map has not yet been started and the alternative server fulfils the rules of the ESL.
The teams/players can of course play on a completely neutral server, if they decide to do so.

A server check has to be taken before a match starts! Therefor the server IP must be available in matchcomments before too.

Information:
The difference between each teams/players average pings to the hosting team's server should be no greater than 45ms for the team average.
If the average ping is greater then 45ms the other team can chose not to play on it and therefore the teams must agree on a more equal server to keep the match as even as possible.

Important, if you can't find a solution, don't wait too long, try and contact an ESL Admin for help!
Any later complaints after the played match, about bad ping are out of the question!
