Three systems per player maximum additional systems can be added to fill out the rosters (none can be on the same team) All Systems must have a different CPU and a different VGA set up. Standard HDD performance tuning (like RAID) on ATA, SATA, SATA II are ok. No limit on # of HDD's. Ram or Virtual Drives are not allowed. SSD's are ok. Acceptable Operating Systems: Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, 2008, Vista & Windows 7 and all variants of each (32-bit/64-bit, home/pro/ultimate, etc.) Acceptable Drivers: ALL (No driver limitation) Acceptable Hardware: All (except unreleased architecture ES chips that are not available retail) NO UPGRADES after Prelim Deadline, (RMA's & Downgrades are ok, subject to validation by the judges). Forum Police can deny any posted score if not properly submitted The Forum Wars Judges will vote on All Questionable scores The "Police Station" is where the forum police will post a poll and discuss scores and rule clarifications. This forum will be password protected. All Forum Police will be registered in our Database and all scores will be entered into the database then transferred to our spreadsheet. Then tabulated and posted on the TRP website (usually twice a week). *** No Unreleased hardware may be used in Team Scoring... *** 8-threaded means the CPU is capable of running 8-threads. If you choose to run it as a 4-threaded processor for higher clocks, that's up to you, but it is not eligible for the 4-threaded classes. Participating Forums...... Each Forum must provide their own Forum Police (2 to 5 is preferred) All cops will have access to "Forum Wars Police Station and the Courthouse" and the Database for Score entries If a Forum has no forum cops players will be REQUIRED to post at The Raptor Pit on the Scoring thread. Participating Forums need to create 3 threads A discussions thread that I can link to from the main site for checking each other out and taunting A closed "Winter Warz 2009 Scoring" thread (not hidden) (where all scores will be posted) A "Forum player entry thread" to Recruit your Players and Cops And of course... a passworded private forum for your players only Forums can have as many 3 man teams in any class as they wish Teams and Catagories...... A thru F Teams...3 players per team (1 team in each class counts toward the Overall) The Slacker class wil be used for all the late entries and do not count toward the overall The Slacker class is unlimited... Anything Goes!!! Class Winners...... This Award goes to the winners of each class... Overall Scoring Award...... Forum final rankings from the "A thru F" teams are added up and the lowest total wins the overall Contest (Ultimate Win) Tiebreakers are: fewest # of 8 threaded CPU's, then fewest VGA cores used, then a coinflip If multiple Teams from the same forum exist in each class, only the highest scoring team's ranking goes toward the "Overall Forum Winner" The Judges: Buckeye ( 411Overkill ) Meltdown (Xtreme CPU) Deanzo (OC Forums) Intel Guy (PC Pitstop) Luis GT (The Raptor Pit) Jammin (OverClockers Club) Hokiealumnus (The Raptor Pit) FWs09 judges can participate as a player like anyone else in their forum, but if there is an issue involving them personally or a member of their forum, they are not allowed to vote as a judge. Forum Police & Judges can verify any score in any participating forum (they are global). Judges & Police cannot verify their own scores (submitting them at TRP is the quickest solution) These rules will not be modified in any form. Any concern about the wording on specific issues will be voted on by the Forum Warz Judges. The polling outcome will be final and not be disputed. Any additions or clarifications approved by the administration will be added separately to the rules as amendments, with no alteration to the original wording of these rules. The term "Awards" are for bragging rights (no gifts are given) The Gifts are given thru a random drawing at the end of the war.
