Crimson Circle tournament rules

This set of rules is written for the very first "Crimson Circle" tournament. If such tournaments are repeated, the rules will be edited in this message without adding a new one.

General Rules:
- The tournament consists of multiple stages.
- Each match in the tournament follows a 1v1 format.
- Matches in the first, qualifying stage are played until first victory.
- Matches in subsequent stages, including the final, follow a "best of three" format.
- Participants will be paired using a randomizer.
- The tournament bracket is created and published one day before the tournament.
- Participants are distributed randomly, without considering differences between classes or equipment level.
- Pairing for each stage after the qualifying stage takes place during the 30-minute break between stages.
- A special channel in the project's Discord will be created for communication during the tournament.

Fight Rules:
- Fighters must arrive at the tournament venue 30 minutes before the start of fights to confirm participation.
- Fighters who are not present at the venue 10 minutes before the announced time are considered disqualified.
- If a fight proceeds with violations, or the judge deems it so, the fight will be suspended for investigation and either resumed or terminated permanently.
- If a tournament participant interferes in another's fight, they will be disqualified and their account will be banned for one week.
- If an outside spectator interferes in a fight, they will be removed from the game and their account will be permanently banned.
- If third parties interfere in a fight, it will be stopped and restarted.
- If technical issues occur during the tournament or a specific fight (connection loss, crash, DDoS), either the fight or the entire tournament will be postponed, depending on the circumstances.
Participants are allowed to use everything available to players for use in the open world. This includes:
- Explosives
- Engineering items
- Any accessories
- Weapon swap (quick weapon change)
- Any consumable items: potions, elixirs, bandages, drums, scrolls, and so on.
Simply put, if it's in your bag, it's allowed for use.

Prohibited:
- Auras and buffs received from other players before the fight begins.
- World buffs obtained through interaction with NPCs in the game before the fight begins.
- Any actions violating game server rules are prohibited, especially the use of third-party programs and scripts.
- Upon arriving at the tournament zone, you must either fight as a participant or calmly observe, without interfering in fights or entering the fight zone.
- Demon Hunters are not allowed to participate in the tournament.

Tournament Application:
- Applications must be submitted in a special forum topic.
- You must specify the character name and class.
- You must attach a screenshot showing the character's equipment and stats.
