The losing team must capture a flag within the same time that the winning team did. If they fail to do so, they will lose the map. If a team captures two flags, they win the map.

Thank you all! Its a FULL EVENT!
If someone breaks the rules mid game, we can just end it and take the win for that map?
Goblin.. if you start a map with your opponent and you have gone past the 2 minute mark of the map..then the map will stand as is and should be completed. It is the responsibility of the teams to check the rules, settings and maps for each map they play. We will not accepts disputes of maps/matches that have been played.

I've uploaded some footage from the tournament for you guys, here's one of them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5gto8Sf3qXU&list=UUVzxSNbh2ARgstEQ8G-m9EA...
