A1 TRNY STANDARDS OF CONDUCT

When you enter an A1 tournament, you are agreeing to abide by the A1's rules and decisions. 

A1 TRNY Directors are the arbitrators of the games they are running. As all referees, they make decisions based on rules and interpretations of rules. There is not always just ONE solution to a given situation. In those cases, the A1 is still required to make a decision without delaying the game. There is no time for argument or a "committee" ruling. The A1 TRNY Director's decisions stand and are final. 

A1 TRNY Directors are conscientious and they are not reluctant to admit a mistake if made, when they have time to review what transpired. However, that time is NOT during an ongoing tournament. Haranguing and badgering any A1 TRNY Director, who is trying to administer a game, is a violation of our Standards of Conduct. Please enter and participate in the A1 tourneys in the spirit with which we put them on, for enjoyment and fun! 

Unacceptable Behavior 

All A1 tournaments are family oriented. Players are required and expected to follow our Standards of Conduct while in our tournament rooms or be subject to our disciplinary action. The following behaviors will be considered a violation of our Standards: 

1.) Harassment  includes threatening or embarrassing an A1 Director or another player. This also includes discrimination, rudeness, fighting, arguing and slander. This means don't say bad things about them, don't keep sending them unwanted messages, don't attack their race, sexual orientation, religion, heritage, etc. This behavior will not be tolerated. 

2.) Impersonation of A1 TRNY Directors or players is prohibited. Please do not use a nickname that begins with A1, or TRNY Director.  Any players attempting to change rules or confuse others will be dealt with accordingly. 

3.) Vulgarity, profanity, slurs or any offensive language either stated or implied is strictly forbidden. 

4.) Room Disruption that interferes with other players’ enjoyment of the tourney or the ability of the A1 Director to smoothly run a tournament will not be allowed.  This includes, but is not limited to, disrupting the flow of chat by inputting large images so the screen goes by too fast to read, use of excessive shouting [all caps] in an attempt to disturb other users, or scrolling [inputting repetitive lines of text or sounds].

Disciplinary Action Procedures 

Our A1 Team will consistently enforce the following Disciplinary Action procedures when a player abuses our Standards of Conduct: 

Action 1:  A verbal warning will be issued to the player stating what violation has been observed and requesting that the behavior cease immediately.  This warning will be in effect for 30 days.

Action 2:  If violation continues, a 30-day tournament ban will be issued.  Any additional violation, within 12 months of the occurrence, will incur a Permanent Tournament Ban.

Action 3:  Continued violation will result in a permanent tournament ban. 

We cannot control the actions of individuals in our tournament rooms. We can only take action against the events we see.
