Each player must have entered a valid Xbox live id in their 'player profile' in order to play.

Hosting the game

Games must be hosted by the player with the best all round connection please test this before the game is due to start by contacting your opponents via the website.
Please play a small warm up when the teams are all connected to make sure there are no connection problems prior to starting the game.

The first clan in the fixture are the hosts, and the second clan pick what team to play on first. Example, Clan A v Clan B, Clan A would be the host, Clan B would choose what team to play on first.

Lag Test:
A "Lag Test" must be completed prior to starting the match.

This is a test round that doesn't count to any of the final scores and uses the standard game settings that will be used during the match. If the host lags during this test, both teams should attempt to resolve the issue with the other player hosting. If an acceptable host can’t be found by either team, then both players are asked to reschedule to another day in the week to play the match.

Turning your PC off can help reduce Lag when hosting.

It is the clan’s responsiblity to check the schedule and contact each other. Playing a delayed time is acceptable as long as the game is played on that evening. Please try to enter the scores and results as quick as possible to ensure the smooth running of the event.
If a team does not show up for the allotted match time and has made no effort to contact the opposing side 15 mins after the scheduled match time the game is entered as a default win to the waiting team. A default score will also be entered if the any team does not have a full squad in the game by the 15 min time buffer.
If any player loses connection the game must continue. Games should be played in the best spirits and sportsmanship.
At least one member of each team must take a digital photo of the end of round scores, in case of dispute. (And for forum bragging).
We take Gamesmanship very seriously at devotii. Verbal abuse will not be tolerated. Please do not use excessive foul language. Please remember what your team finds acceptable others may not. Please treat other teams with a friendly attitude; good teams let the game do the talking.
