It’s summertime, the months where many people go on vacation and the weather is nice and sunny. Naturally, organizing and carrying out a Halo: Reach tournament should be going on. Organized by monsterfracas, kittens, and Risen. Everyone loves a good Halo tournament, and HaloGAF's got some pretty great players.

The time of the last slates of games will be determined by the community.
If your full team cannot make a match, this is what will happen:
1. Teams will play without players who cannot make the match (Try to schedule between captains as to avoid this)
2. If an agreement can be reached, gentleman's rules are acceptable (if one team is down a man, the other team offers to bench a player, creating even teams)
3. If no one from your team shows up for the scheduled match, your team forfeits by default
4. If neither team can agree on a time for the match, or no one shows up for the scheduled match, then the outcome will be decided by a coin flip
As for lag issues: If a consensus can be reached that a game was unplayable/heavily affected for players, then the game will be replayed. If a player unexpectedly drops out of the game, the game can be restarted, if the other team agrees. If not, then the player who had dropped out can just drop back in, with nothing restarted.
Tips
1. Communication is key! PM/chat with your teammates and captains.
2. Try to schedule early.
3. PM monsterfracas if you have any questions.
