Guidance for new players
Welcome to Tournament Play Commander Players should to go to the tournaments 1 game lobby, say 10 minutes (but not less than 5 minutes), before the event is due to start to check in with the tournament staff. In the case of this event, you should check in with me. Once you have checked in, you should stay in the tournaments 1 lobby.
We normally put a countdown timer in the portal (in the case of this event, www.gamereplays/commandandconquer3/) a few hours before hand, to help players know when the event starts (sometimes people get a little confused with time zone differences).
When the event is due to start and everyone has checked in, the staff will "seed" the players and make "brackets", to tell players who they are supposed to be playing against. You should find the brackets page on the portal (in this case www.gamereplays/commandandconquer3/ again).
Once it is announced that the brackets have been fixed, you should refresh your browser, in case there have been any changes to the brackets since you opened the page.
That should tell you who you are playing against. You or your opponent should then make a game using the map specified by the tournament rules. Often, the staff will advise you which is the correct starting map (usually because, due to the number of players attending, the event may start on a round other than the "round 1" shown in the rules).
Take note that 'tournament' game lobbies on KW and TW can be a bit buggy and sometimes do not show the games that people have made. You may need to "refresh" by leaving the lobby and coming back again to see open games that other people have made.
Once you have completed your round (in the case of this event, that will be, in the first rounds, when one of the players has achieved two wins), the winner should post all of the replays from the round in the Replay and Result topic. You should find the location of that topic on the brackets page but in this case it will be in the TW Forums "Tournaments" forum (the one underneath "General Discussions" on the Forums tab). Once that has been done, you should inform the tournament staff, who will update the brackets.
Remember again that you should keep refreshing your browser when looking at the brackets page.
The staff will try to help you as much as they can during the event but these events can sometimes get very busy for the staff and there is likely to be a high volume of message traffic, so it is difficult to give players individual attention much of the time.
Good Luck!
So, here we go again...
