OCAU Team Fortress 2 State of Origin (SoO)

OCAU Team Fortress 2 State of Origin is a TF2 (8v8) competition held by the Overclockers Australia TF2 community. It is open to all OCAU members, WP (and other forums) may also join in, providing they have an OCAU account. It is held in a spirit similar to that of the Rugby League SoO tournament, where members form teams based on their geographical location (what state they are in).

Rules

• Games will be 8v8.
• The following class restrictions apply:
  • A maximum of 2 demomen
  • A maximum of 2 medics
• There will be no critical hits in SoO.
• Weapon unlocks are allowed.
• Clan tags, during matches have to be replaced with your state, eg [Vic] [QLD] etc.
• Screenshots need to be taken at the end of each map to verify scores.
• No spectators are allowed; source TV servers will be available for those wishing to view the matches.
• The maps played in each match are cp_fastlane, cp_gravelpit, and pl_goldrush.
• mp_tournament mode will NOT be used. If scores are tied on a map, teams will win on time (the time remaining on the clock when they capture)
• Exploiting game or map bugs or flaws for an unfair advantage is prohibited, exploiters will be booted from the competition (note: spawn camping is not considered an exploit)

Rules are based on OzFortress rules, see: "OZFORTRESS RULES."
Ladder Rules:

• Each team in the ladder is ranked on points (4 points for a win, 2 points for a tie, 0 points for a loss), with separation of teams on the same amount of wins by a points differential (points scored - points scored against)
• It is essential to lodge the full scores of each map at the conclusion of a match (eg. QLD Fastlane 5-2, NSW Gravel 3-1, QLD Goldrush 7-7)

• The top 4 teams in the ladder will progress to the finals.
• For the finals, the first placed team will play the 4th placed team, and the 2nd placed team will play the 3rd placed team in a knockout semi-final round.
• The grand final will be between the winners of the two semi-finals.
