    General Rules:
    *Because TGN Events are about fun as much as winning prizes, rude behavior will not be tolerated.

    •        We have a Zero Tolerance Rule on threats and/or screaming at anyone attending an event, if a player breaks this
    rule he or she will be escorted off of the event grounds.

    •        Wireless controllers will only be accepted if the battery pack is absent and a play n’ charge is used for power.

    •        Players who adjust the volume of the Game play TV’s will be disqualified.

    •        No touching consoles without a TD present, players who do so will be disqualified (This rule is enforced to protect
    equipment from theft and damage).

    •        If a problem arises with a controller or in game settings notify a TD, if you finish a game with a loss and then report
    the mishap no action will be taken.

    •        Players must report within 5 mins of posted start time or will be disqualified.
    •        Glitches must be posted on the TGN forum, or sent in an email, for determining acceptance.

    •        Team Colors will be Red & Blue only.
For Example: if you want to play Capture the Flag on Sandtrap with 110% speed, you have about 3 minutes to get everyone to agree. On the other hand, if you'd rather not play CTF on Sandtrap, your single vote will take it off of the menu.
