The defender & attacker will rotate hosting every 12 rounds. Defender has hosting privileges first. The team to win 13 rounds first wins the match. If either defender/attacker fail to post hoster/password info 48hrs prior to match date/time then they lose the privilege of hosting. Teams will be required to provide at least 2 hosters 48hrs prior to match date/time in match comms in order to having hosting privileges. Teams may provide more than 2 hosters in match comms if they so desire. If the match ends in a tie then please see the SD Over-Time rule.
The entire match can be played on 1 hoster if both teams agree to it but botht eams will need to jump out to the lobby after the 12th round and the game restarted so that substitutions can be made.
-Over-Time:
In the event that the match ends up in a 12-12 tie, then a 25th round Over-Time will be played. The Over-Time round is setup the same as any of the other rounds. The Defender has side choice & the Over-Time round must be played on the host where the 20th round was played. NO substitutions will be allowed in Overtime.
DO NOT USE THE INGAME OT
-Demos:
Since WeGame has a 20 minute limit that a player can upload, it will be mandatory for players to make seperate demos for all Search & Destroy matches. Players are REQUIRED to start a new demo every 3 rounds. All players have to do his F5 (default Wegame hot key) to start/stop their demo then just simply hit it again to start a new demo.
Search & Destroy HARDCORE Ladder Settings:
[+] Team DeathMatch
Team DeathMatch
-Basic Objective:
The basic objective, for both teams is to kill members of the other team more often than they kill you.
-Match Setup:
Each match is played out over (2) 10:00 minute halves, across (2) maps.
-Scoring:
A team is awarded 10 points each time a player of their team gets a kill on a player from the other team.
-Determining the Winner:
The winning team is determined as the team with the highest combined score from both halves of both maps.
-Hosting:
Defender will have hosting privileges for the first map of the match and the attacker will have hosting privileges for the 2nd map. If either defender/attacker fail to post hoster/password info 48hrs prior to match date/time then they lose the privilege of hosting. Teams will be required to provide at least 2 hosters 48hrs prior to match date/time in match comms in order to having hosting privileges. Teams may provide more than 2 hosters in match comms if they so desire.
The entire match can be played on 1 hoster if both teams agree to it.
-Over-Time:
If, after both maps are played, the score is tied between the two teams, then a third map wil be played. The Over-Time map is Afghan. The time limit will be 10 minutes, playing only 1 round. The higher scoring team wins the match. NO substitutions will be allowed in Overtime & the Defender has side choice. To report the scores in OT, simply add the OT scores to the final score of the 2nd map. The overtime round will be played on the host where the 2nd map was played.
DO NOT USE THE INGAME OT
-Demos:
Since WeGame has a 20 minute limit that a player can upload, it will be mandatory for players to make at least 4 seperate demos, 1 for each half or 1 demo every 5 minutes for all TDM matches. All players have to do his F5 (default Wegame hot key) to start/stop their demo then just simply hit it again to start a new demo.
-Riot Shields:
There will be only (1) riot shield per team which also includes if a player picks up a riot shield off the ground. Any team caught using more than 1 riot shield will automatically forfeit the match and other penalties could be applied. Captains make your players aware of this.
-Launchers:
Launchers at this time will not be allowed. Any player caught using a launcher will forfeit the match for their team.
-Stun Grenades:
Stun grenades at this time are no longer allowed. Any player caught using them will forfeit the match for their team.
-Pre-Match/Hosting Stability:
Once both teams are in the lobby and ready to go the hoster will start the pre-match (sameway as you would start a regular match). Players join their appropriate sides and for 5 minutes see how good/stable/bad their connection is to the hoster. For the hoster to be deemed ineligible, there has to be serious issues with the hoster's connection however we all know that IWNET/p2p does produce lag for some but that doesn't necessarily mean that the hoster is automatically disqualified. For example, if everyone is experiencing severe lag issues, connection issues, or the majority of players have 2 bars or less than those could be grounds to try a new host. If a team only posts 1 hoster and that hoster has hosting issues then hosting dutings would fall onto the opposing team as long as they posted their info per TWL rules.
Once everything has been checked out and their are no issues then all players will jump back into the lobby and the hoster will restart the match.
Each specific gametype has detailed information on hosting matches in reference to maps, halves, or rounds
-Substitutions:
Due to the nature of the p2p, it is possible for players to be disconnected or dropped from a game. Should this happen, you may substitute an eligible player to fill the spot or allow the dropped player to rejoin. Once reconnected, the player must join their respective team immediately. Anyone sitting in spectator for over 5 seconds will be considered observing and risk their team forfeiting the match.
Due to the sizes of some teams, it is acceptable to rotate players at the beginning of new maps or during halftime. All substitutions must be made during the Lobby period, before the match resumes. However, this should be done in a timely manner that does not hinder the progress of the game. In other words, please have your teammates "waiting in the wings."
If remaining on the same host, teams have 5 mins to bring in a substitution.
Due to restrictions in the game, MW2 STEAM ID's cannot be verified in the lobby. Any team making substitutions deemed to be illegal during the MW2 STEAM ID check at the end of the match will automatically forfeit the match and other peanlties can be applied to the offending team.

Xray Anti-Cheat Client
XRAY IS REQUIRED TO BE USED BY ALL PLAYERS IN OFFICIAL MW2 TWL MATCHES.
-What is XAC
X-ray Anti-Cheat is a program designed to catch and eliminate cheaters in online games. X-ray is a client-side application, running on your machine and offering protection to you and your team-mates in online leagues and tournaments. It allows you to check for cheaters in any match you have played by viewing screenshots of their matches on xraygaming.com.
CLICK HERE for a step by step tutorial on how-to setup Xray.
-XAC Ingame ID (Centra GUID)
Each player is required to add their Centra (XRay Gaming) guid to their TeamWarfare profile. Goto My Profile on XRay Gaming (you must be logged into XRayGaming.com and the top right corner it shows your GUID (40 digits).
To add the XAC Ingame ID simply go to: Account Maintenance --> Profile --> Click "add another id" --> select the XAC Ingame ID from the drop down box. Please note that the entire 40 digit CENTRA GUID is required to be entered as your XAC Ingame ID on your account here at TWL.
-General Info
The anti-cheat uses state of the art methods for taking screenshots and has other background scans to help for when screenshots are inconclusive. The screenshot code even works on Vista for nearly all games it supports. Screenshots are taken whilst the Anti-Cheat and your game are both open and then stored on your PC. As soon as your game is detected to have been closed, the client will upload your screenshots. Should you tamper with or delete the screenshots the Anti-Cheat can no-longer be used. Should your computer crash at the end of your game, your screenshots will simply be uploaded next time the Anti-Cheat is opened. It cannot be used again until all your screenshots have been uploaded.
When you are playing a game with X-ray Anti-Cheat loaded it will periodically take screenshots. These images are then uploaded to our web-site where you can look through not only yours but everyone else's as well.
All screenshots will be reviewed by a group of trusted administrators, however to help us go through the screenshots faster you can report suspicious screenshots to our administrators for immediate processing.
-Xray Screenshots
Players are required to upload their xray screenshots at the end of the match when the prompted to by the Xray AC Client. Failure to do so will result in penalties being handed out. Please allow 15-20 mins for them to show up on a players profile. If their is an issue with the xray screenshots, please contact an admin via IRC.
Penalties for failing to run xray or upload screenshots are:
1st Offense - 15-day suspension, forfeiture of match.
2nd Offense - 30-day suspension. Team forfeits match. Team dropped 25% rung loss.
3rd Offense - 60-day suspension. Team forfeits match. Team dropped to bottom of ladder.
4th Offense - Player banned from TeamWarfare. Team disbanded.
NOTE:Tampering or deleting screenshots will have severe consequences for you & your team
Support & Issues
Support issues are handled by XRay Gaming
The biggest issue I have seen is the date/time on computers not being correct. You need to check and make sure the DATE as well as the TIME is correct in windows and if the issue still occurs you will need to check the BIOS date and time.
For instructions on checking the date and time please contact the manufacturer of your computer.

Screenshots
-Screenshots-
Screenshots are required to be taken only by the WeGame screenshot feature. Please see the WeGame tutorial for setup specifics.
Screenshots cant be taken while WeGame is recording a demo (feature they are working on in a future release), so players will need to stop their demo via their hotkey, take the screenshot, and restart their demo. It may sound cmplicated but it isnt can be done quickly by pushing 2 buttons. Just remember to restart your demo after you take a screenshot
WeGame screenshots will be the only official screenshots excepted for a dispute.

Match Communication
-Match Comms:
ALL match communications MUST go through the Teamwarfare Match Communication system. This can be which can be accessed by team Founders and Captains via the Admin Panel link in the Team Administration section of their team's page. Issues discussed in Match Comms should be Host & backup host name from each team, passwords, map changes, scheduling times, or any other relevant match specific information.
NOTE: TWL Admins use the Match Communication system when verifying information regarding disputes and general match iquiries. If teams have not communicated in Match Comms, any disputes relating match specific issues, other then cheating or smurfing, may be summarily dismissed by an admin because of an inability to validate such problems.
-Exchanging Host's names and Password:
Each team will be required to provide 2 host names (1 primary, 1 secondary/backup) and password in comms. Any host name not posted 48-hours before the match time will be considered ineligible. If the defender fails to provide host information 48 hours prior to the start of the match, they forfiet the right of server selection. In the event neither team posts host info 48-hours before match time, the match will be rescheduled and completed within three days or both teams can agree to kill the match. Rescheduled matches not completed in three days will be killed. In case of a host-migration, the match will continue once the migration is completed. Please be sure to pay attention to the score (take a screenshot)) in case of a host migration related issue.
-Server Selection:
The Defending team has host selection for the first half, and the Attacking team has host selection for the second half. In the event of Overtime, please see the "Definition of Gametype(s) Section" and click on your specific gametype. Teams may agree to play on one server. If the server does not qualify for reasons such as setup or latency conflict, then it may not be used unless both teams agree.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Captain's Responsibility
-TWL Website:
Team Warfare does utilize an auto-mailer system. The purpose of the auto-mailer is to alert Team Captains of any updates to their team, most commonly Challenges. This system, however, is not always reliable as the only method of notification. As well, the auto-mail does not alert Team Captains of updates such as Rules Updates, PAM Updates, Important Forum Threads, Match Comms, etc.
It is because of this, that we ask that all Team Captains check the TWL Website at least once daily. A simple 5 to 10 minute visit to the website will give you the chance to check the status of any matches that your team has pending, any new challenges, as well as check the forums for any other important updates.
-Accepting the Match:
To challenge a team you must log into your team's Admin panel, also see Ladder Movement. If you are challenging a team you are considered the Attacker of the match. The team being Attacked is referenced as the Defending team. Once attacked the Defending team has 48hrs to respond to the challenge of the Attackers by selecting two different dates and two different times for the Attacking team to select from. Also note that some Ladders may require additional selections such as maps and/or side selection.
Failure to accept the match within 48hrs will result in the following consequence.
Consequence - Defender's forfeit match. Dropped 10 Ladder rungs. Attacker takes Defender's rung.
Note: Forfeit will NOT include a loss on the record of the team, nor will the other team gain a win on their record.
-Confirming the Match:
Once the Defender has offered the dates and times the Attacking team will have 48hrs to confirm one of the two offers by the Defending team. Also note that some Ladders may require additional selections such as maps and/or side selection.
Failure to confirm the match 48hrs after it was accepted will result in the following consequence.
Consequence - Attacker's forfeit match. Dropped 10 Ladder rungs.
Note: Forfeit will NOT include a loss on the record of the team, nor will the other team gain a win on their record.
Teams that have these consequences applied will be notified by the auto mailer system. The TWL System monitors and flags all matches in violation. A llama is added each time to the team that violates the Match Acceptance process. Teams that receive 3 or more llama's in a row will be removed from the Ladder.
-Eligibility for Match:
There are (3) requirements for player(s) to be eligible to participate in any ladder match. First, all Players must be registered on their team's roster prior to the Challenged Date of the match to be able to play. Leniency is given for people that sign up on the same day. Secondly, all player(s) must have a valid MW2 STEAM ID, XAC Ingame ID (Xray ID), and WeGame ID listed on their profile no less than 24 hour prior to match start time. Exceptions may be agreed upon in Match Comms by the opposing team prior to match start.
-Roster checks:
It is the Captain's responsibility to check their opponents roster before the match begins. Should the Captain ignore this and play the match then you are authorizing the player to play in the match.
-Half-Time Substitution:
There will be allowed a 10 minute break in between halves. Teams that substitute players at the half must have the substitute join immediately.
-Status Screenshot:
When smurphing accusations, or anything tied to player identity are brought up in a dispute the Admin must verify who played in the match. Captains need to be able to provide the screenshot upon request.
-Screenshots of the Score:
Periodically you may need an Admin to finish the match results. Every Admin must be able to verify the scores in order to report the match as completed. It is the Captains responsibility from both teams to take screenshots at the end of each half so that the score can be verified. If screenshots were not taken then you made need to watch your demo to get them. Without screenshots, regardless of the match outcome, the match may be canceled.
-Reporting the Match Results:
At the end of the match, the winning teams needs to post the final score in Match Comms. This establishes and records the Match End Time. From this point, the Team Captain(s) of the losing team have two options when reporting the match results.
Report Match Results
Dispute Match
Team Captains of the losing team must report the match results or dispute the match no later than (1) hour after the match's completion. This can be done from the Admin Panel for the Modern Warfare 2 Ladder. Failure to do so will result in the following consequence. There will be No Exceptions to this rule. Just because the Winning team has posted the match score in comms does NOT exclude the losing team from reporting the final match score.
1st Offense - Team dropped 10% of the total rungs on the Ladder.
2nd Offense - Team dropped to the bottom of the Ladder.
3rd Offense - Team will be removed from the Ladder.
Although there is no exception please refer to the below subcategory labeled "-Disputes for Cheating Format." It has been recognized and is understood that (1) hour is not enough time to collect all of the evidence needed to submit your case. If you are submitting a Cheating Dispute you MUST report the match as a dispute within the (1) hour time limit. Simply provide a brief summary of why you feel the other team has cheated and state in your dispute that you will have the rest of the information needed as shown below in the example sent to codacteam@teamwarfare.com within 24hrs. of your initial dispute claim. Failure to do this will result in the dispute being rejected and the above consequence will be applied as a penalty. For all other disputes, see "Filing a Dispute".

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Match Start
-Definition of "Match Time":
The CoD Modern Warfare 2 Administration defines "Match Time" as the time when a player enters the lobby to play a sanctioned match, until they leave. Therefore, any rules/obligations that are defined as being valid during "match time" or "in match", are understood to be valid during the actual match play time, any warmup (pre-match) time, Half-Time, host Switching, or any other variation thereof. If your team is on a server, expecting that a match is to take place, then you are considered in "match time".
-Match Start Time:
All players should be online and in the lobby on time. All members of each team need to be in the lobby and ready to play no later than 15 minutes after the time the match is supposed to start. The offending team will forfeit.
-Bar/Ping Discrepancy:
-Host Stability:
A host may be deemed unstable if multiple members from both teams are experiencing issues with the hoster.
-Authorized Communication:
Two captains from each team will be designated to communicate prior to the match starting and between rounds. No other "global" communication is permitted, however, Good Game or Good Luck prior to and after matches is acceptable. Team Captains ARE responsible for the actions of their team members during matches.
-Player Conduct:
The following guidelines are to be adherred to by all players in any given match:
Outside of friendly comments ("good game", "good half", "well played", etc.), only 2 Captains per team should engage in global text communication, and only to discuss match stipulations. See -Authorized Communication section above.
At no time should any player except the Captains from each team use global voice chat in the lobby or game unless its to say good game or good luck (this includes "vsay" and VOIP).
At no time should any player use profanity or any type. This includes racial, gender, and/or religious slurs; bashing players of the opposing team; bashing TWL as a whole, or any staff members.
Any player/team in violation of the above guidelines, will be punished based on the severity of the offense. Punishment can range from loss of round, suspension of player(s), suspension of captain(s), forfeit of match, or loss of ladder rung. Unsportsmanlike Conduct disputes will be evaluated by Admin(s) on a case by case basis.
-Pre-Match:
Once both teams are in the lobby and ready to go the hoster will start the pre-match (sameway as you would start a regular match). Players join their appropriate sides and for 5 minutes see how good/stable/bad their connection is to the hoster. For the hoster to be deemed ineligible, there has to be serious issues with the hoster's connection however we all know that IWNET/p2p does produce lag for some but that doesn't necessarily mean that the hoster is automatically disqualified. For example, if everyone is experiencing severe lag issues, connection issues, or the majority of players have 2 bars or less than those could be grounds to try a new host. If a team only posts 1 hoster and that hoster has hosting issues then hosting dutings would fall onto the opposing team as long as they posted their info per TWL rules.
Once everything has been checked out and their are no issues then all players will jump back into the lobby and the hoster will restart the match.
-Lobby/Match Start:
Host team will invite the Captain/Founder of the opposing team, the opposing team's players can then join the lobby via their captain. Once in the lobby, only 2 captains can communicate using the in-game voice chat feature. After both teams have been added to the lobby and after both captains verbally agree to start the match, teams join thier appropriate sides and the match will begin. The match is considered 'live' as soon as the map loads and teams join their respective sides.
If a team has a problem or concern before or during a match, then a Captain of the team needs to come to the IRC and get an Admin before starting the match, or during halftime. Under no circumstances should any team ever leave during a half or round while the match is "Live." A team to do this will subject themselves to forfeiting the match.
