Gambattles Rule Change

Updated Rules for Call of Duty 4

These new rules are in effect starting March 26th, 2008. It is the responsibility of ALL users on this ladder to know and understand all of the rules on the staff page.

There are a few rules that have significantly changed that alter how games on this ladder will be played.

Consecutive Teamkilling/Suicide's = Forfeit of match

If a team consecutively commits suicide or teamkills there teammates to get an unfair advantage on Team DeathMatch (TDM) this team will forfeit the entire match. This does not mean a team cannot commit suicide to get to the a part of the map faster. This is referring to teams that take the lead and then consecutively commit suicide to attain the win for this match.

This action is conflicting with the following rules:

Cheating

3. "Glitching" and abusing the In-Game mechanics in any way is not tolerated. We do not allow cheaters to compete on GameBattles.

General

4. Our goal here at GameBattles is to provide gamers with a place to find fair and competitive matches. In order to accomplish this goal, we will not tolerate players or teams with an unsportsmanlike attitude and such violators will be dealt with accordingly.

_______________

If you are playing a match and a team is doing this on a TDM Match only you must do the following:

A) Record this team doing this. Admin's need really good proof so if your video quality is not good enough for us to see please do not bother submitting it. Photo's will not help you in this situation so please do not submit that.

B) Contact a Referee and they will try to help you with your issue.

Remember this is only for consecutive Teamkilling/Suicide when a team is trying to get a cheap win because they got one or tw

No Shows

- Rule number 2 specifically says you must show up with the indicated amount of eligible players for the match. If you do not show up with the correct amount of players you will forfeit.

- Rule number 3 says in order to receive a no show win (without a ref present), you must submit a ticket within 45 minutes of the schedule match time. You must report that your team won this match also.

Matches

- Rule number 2 says that the higher ranked team will host the first map.

- Rule number 3 says that the higher ranked team at match time will host the first map. The lower ranked team at match time will host the second map. This will alternate for each map if/until a tie breaker map is needed. If a tie breaker map is needed, the lower ranked team will host the final map.

- Rule number 7 says if host disconnects after the game has started, the host’s team forfeits the map.

- Rule number 9 says if a player disconnects during a team deathmatch, that team will forfeit the map.

- Rule number 10 says before you start a new map, both teams must find eligible substitutes so that they meet the number of players required by the match details. You CANNOT start the next map without the correct number of players.

Every user needs to read the entire rules page to grasp a full understanding of the way the game is supposed to be played on this ladder.

CONFIRMED GLITCH - PIPELINE

A glitch on Pipeline has been brought to our attention and I wanted to let everyone know that abusing this glitch in-game will result in immediate forfeit of the match and possible banning as cheating is not tolerated. Here is a clip of what the glitch looks like so you can be sure to NOT use it in a match. Also, as always, if you accuse someone of using this glitch, you MUST provide proof of the glitch being used.

http://media.putfile.com/Pipeline-Glitches **video added 1/21/08. Basically, getting into ANY pipes on Pipeline is a glitch.

Anyone caught using this glitch will forfeit the match and will risk being banned. This includes using it during regular matches and in playoff matches. This is a clear abuse of in-game mechanics and is not tolerated.


CONFIRMED GLITCHES


CONFIRMED GLITCH - GOD MODE

Anyone caught using the below glitch will forfeit the match and risk being banned. I do not know how helpful it even is because you are obviously stuck in last stand. However, this is a glitch.

CONFIRMED GLITCHES

Any use of rpg's to assist you to get to anywhere on the map you normally cannot get to by jumping is a glitch.

CONFIRMED GLITCHES

On Sabotage and Search and Destroy, when you plant the bomb on these gametypes and leave a blank C4 on the bomb this is considered a glitch and if caught doing this you will forfeit the entire match.

NOT A GLITCH

1. The roof on Overgrown is not a glitch
2. The boxes on Wetworks are not a glitch
3. The roofs on Crash are not a glitch
4. The boxes or tank on Bog are not a glitch
5. The archway and market on District are not a glitch
6. Planting the bomb outside the crate is not a glitch.
7. The rooftops on Ambush are not a glitch.

I will say right now that if you ever go outside of a map or get INTO an object that you should not be in, it is a glitch, so do not even try it. YOU WILL FORFEIT AND WILL BE BANNED!

thanks for updating us but what isa ment ny planting the bomb outside of the crate mean?

on bog you have to touch the creat to plant it, not outside the metal box thing.
