is expected that all players show good sportsmanship and
help make the tour a big success. The tournament
committee will make sure the contestants to play
professionally and if necessary, the tournament
committee may disqualify those who show poor
sportsmanship.
- Attendance
- A player must make due effort to
attend the tournament and play all his games.
- A player must wait for the
moderator's permission before leaving the tournament,
even if his opponent is absent. Any player that leaves
the tournament before being
dismissed by the moderator will forfeit his game.
- Absenteeism
may prevent a player from being admitted to future events.
- Absenteeism (If you absent once, your game will be
disqualified from the game and will not be qualify to play

- Notice:
If a player does not arrive on
time of his first scheduled game, then he will
be removed from the tournament and an alternate player
will take his place.
- Notice:
If a player does not arrive within
on time of any scheduled game thereafter, he will
be declared absent and his game will be forfeited.
- A player forfeits the tournament, if he is absent once
during the tournament.
- Rescheduling
- There will be no reschedule as all.
- Disconnection
- If a player disconnects during a game, he is allowed
the remaining time on his clock to reconnect and make
his moves.
- At the discretion of the player still connected, more
time may be added to a disconnected player's clocks.
While this is recommended, in consideration of poor
Internet connections throughout the world, it is not
required.
- CXQ assumes no responsibilities for the quality of
Internet connection of any participant.
- Server Down/Reset
- In the event that the server crashes while a game is
in progress, regardless
of any advantage that one player may have over the
other, the game will be

minutes, 2 minutes and 5 seconds.
- Maximum Number of Moves
- A game is declared a draw if no
winner has been determined after each player makes 300
moves

- Errors such as mouse slips, unexpected piece movement,
freezing screen, etc., will NOT be accepted as valid excuses
for rematch, because we have no way to verify those errors.
