Standard Rules
-Please use your main account for this tournament.
-You will be placed randomly in teams depending on how many people participating in the tournaments.
-Pick the division tier based on what type of files you normally play. (Example: If you mainly play spread files, then go with spread tier.)
-Judge 4 is preferred in this tournament because I want this process to run smooth. You can use higher judge if you want since the online converts to J4 score.
-If there are songs that seem difficult for you to pass, it is suggested that you have FailOff option with you.
-People needs to be online for their scores to count.
-Any styles are allowed to play the files in your division. (Example: You can use spread key layouts on index files.)
-People are allowed to update their scores and replace snapshots.
-Playing alone is allowed.
-If there's more than one people in the team playing the same song, then all of the people in that team need to submit their scores to have their points settled.
Note: It's recommend for people who have prior experience playing online to participate the tournament. Don't join this tournament if you never play online before.
Anyone is welcome. (Pros, Semi-Pro, Intermediate, Noobs, etc.)
Objective
The team that captures the most songs wins the tournament.
Points Grading System
Marvelous/Flawless: (Number of notes you got) x 2
Perfect: (Number of notes you got) x 1
Great: (Number of notes you got) x 0.5
Good: (Number of notes you got) x 0
Boo: (Number of notes you got) x -1
Miss: (Number of notes you got) x -2
OK: (Number of notes you got) x 1
Note: It's not going to matter much with NGs because of the way theme show the scores in the evaluation.
To calculate the points, use this example. This is how you capture a song. This calculation can be done if you submit the scores.
The more people participating in playing the same song, the more chance of sealing the capture.
Example: (800 Points from Person 1 on same team + 1000 Points from Person 2 on same team = 1800 Points)
Tactic: You can steal the song other team captured to claim that song. For example:
This is just a stupid rule, I'm going to have omit the rule because I don't think I can carry this out well.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE: There will be a two team total since it's a Co-op tournament.
If there's odd number of people, then I will play with certain skill restriction.

Conclusion for this tournament
Since the penalty rule has been omitted, this is how this tournament will end. After the result has been settled, here's how the score will be recalculated.
The team score will be recalculated with this formula:
[Songs Captured * (The number of people participated) = Final score]
This is pretty much a simple rule that will stay until I get a better explanation for this.
