OFFICIAL RULES

* Best of 13 matches (first to 7 !)
* Once brackets are posted, a given timeframe will be given (approximately 7pm EST).
* Record your matches for a cmk showcase on youtube later on 
* Tourney duration will be 1 evening.
* Counterpicking is allowed, just try to be a good sport overall.
* In order to register, you must post in this thread. Do not message CMK staff.
* If you have been previously banned from CMK, you are not permitted to enter the tournament. CMK staff reserves the right, at any time, to disqualify any participant.




DISQUALIFICATIONS

* If a player willingly quits than that player is eliminated for the entire tourney *lag exception see below
* If a player no-shows a match or does not complete the matches he is disqualified
* If a person is lagging severely with several people, intentional or not, that player may be removed from the tournament.
* Anyone suspected of purposely lagging a match to gain an unfair advantage will be disqualified.



LAG EXCEPTION

* If connection breaks, then both players must restart the match with the same characters (prior round win is omitted). If the breaking connection is suspicious like breaking right before a victory than the player has a right to report it.
* In the case of lag, keep trying. If after a few tries the connection is not good, please report back to the hosts IMMEDIATELY and a new matchup may be made for you with another opponent (reserve).
* *You will have up to the 3rd match to quit on account of lag if it is really unplayable without being faulted (after the 3rd match is played you must continue the rest of your 10 remaining matches even if lag begins to creep in.) You must notify your opponent you are quitting due to lag and must report this asap in this thread in order to get a new opponent otherwise you may both be disqualified. Therefore it is best to play early in case you may need to swap opponents as there may be no available opponents left if all matchups have been played. This lag exception ONLY applies to first round matches. Semi's and Finals must be played regardless of lag.
* If a person is DQ'ed, and another opponent cannot be found for the remaining player, then a reserve will be used. If there is no reserve, than the player will receive a bye. Byes only allowed in quarterfinals. if a replacement player is needed in the semi's or finals, it will be determined from the previous rounds' highest scoring losing player. If there is a tie than the winner will get to pick.


In order to optimize internet speed, Please DO NOT:

* have anything other than MAME running on your PC
* any 2.4 ghz cordless telephone calls




GET A HARDWIRED CONNECTION

When playing your matches, be sure to dedicate your PC to MAME.
This means closing all applications like; browsers, messengers, scanners etc.
The last thing you want to happen is getting DQ'd due to lag.

Hello gentlemen. I have a question and a suggestion regarding replay videos:

I would like to know, since quite a few of us play the MK games via MAME 90% of the time, are there any input files that have been recorded that you can share, so that those of us with MAME can watch matches via input replay files instead of via actual video files such AVI or MPEG? In my opinion, being able to watch replay matches from within the emulator itself is much more beneficial since A)The file sizes are incredibly tiny and B)You'd be watching the game *itself* being played rather than from off a video player screen, which obviously isn't as clear.

Please let me know what you guys think of this and whether there are input files floating around out there. I know there were plenty on 2DF's old site but unfortunately none for MK since FBA doesn't support it.

If there are not, I think we should make this an option and tell those who participate in Kaillera tourneys to make sure they record their matches via MAME's input recording feature.
