Event rules
Version 30 October 2026
These rules apply to every MCG tournament on 8 November 2026 in Melaka. Each tournament's page adds its own rules (format, match length, game settings); where they differ, the tournament's rules apply.
Officials
The tournament director runs each tournament, with referees and check-in staff. Follow their instructions at the venue. The director decides anything these rules don't cover.
Eligibility
Every player needs their own Cyber ID and must be at least 13 on the day.
A tournament may set more conditions, shown on its page.
Registration and teams
Register in the app before registration closes. A team's lineup locks at the time shown on the tournament page; after that, changes need the tournament director.
A player can be in one team's playing lineup per game. You can enter more than one game only if their times don't overlap.
Check-in
Check in at the MCG desk during your tournament's check-in time, shown on its page. Show your Cyber ID and your MyKad (no other ID is accepted): staff look at it and give it back, they don't copy it.
Check-in stays open 10 minutes after its time ends. A team with fewer checked-in players than it needs after that loses its first match by walkover.
Matches
Be at your station when your match is called, with your game account ready to sign in. A player or team not there 10 minutes after being called forfeits that match.
Play on your own game account. Use only what the tournament allows (devices, settings, accessories).
Conduct
No cheating, hacks, exploits, match fixing or playing for someone else. Respect other players, staff, the audience and the venue. Officials may stop a match to check a device or an account.
Results and disputes
Results are recorded by MCG officials. Raise a problem with your referee straight after the match, before the next one starts. The tournament director's decision on a dispute is final.
If the app is down, officials keep results on paper, and those records count.
Penalties
Breaking these rules can lead to a warning, a lost game or match, disqualification, or a ban from future MCG tournaments, depending on how serious it is. Every penalty is recorded with its reason.
Changes on the day
Schedules can move on the day. Announcements in the app and at the venue come first, so check them before your matches.
Language
These rules are given in English and Bahasa Melayu. If the two texts differ, the English text prevails.
