【Rules for Team and Player Naming】
1. Team Naming Rules:
[olist]
[*] The team name in the CBL server is the same as the house name created by the team leader. For global event consistency, team names can currently only consist of English letters and numbers, with a character requirement of 4 to 32 characters.
[*] Names must not contain any insulting or discriminatory meanings. If found, the team will be disqualified directly.
[*] Teams must provide an abbreviation consisting of 3 to 4 characters.
[*] In special cases, abbreviations with meanings can be determined and publicly announced after communication with the official team.
[*] Officials reserve the right to modify team names or abbreviations based on actual circumstances.
[/olist]
2. Individual Naming Rules
[olist]
[*] The character name in the CBL server is the individual's name.
[*] The format is [Team Abbreviation_Individual Nickname], with no restrictions on the individual name.
[*] For example, if a team abbreviation is BOOM and their character name is LEON, the name would be [BOOM_LEON].
[*] Names must not contain any insulting or discriminatory meanings. If found, the team will be disqualified directly.
[*] Players with names that do not meet the naming rules are not allowed to participate.
[*] Officials reserve the right to modify individual’s name or abbreviations based on actual circumstances.
[/olist]
【Point Race Rules】
[olist]
[*] Since the current ranking system mainly relies on division calculations, the final result of the point race will be based on the total team points data as recorded on the CBL official website.
[*] If the registration period overlaps with the point race period, players are allowed to switch between teams freely. However, the final list of participants will be based on the team composition at the registration deadline.
[*] At the start of the point race, players who have not joined a team but have any score changes from participating in [Ranked Battles] will also be included in the point race calculation. For example, if "CN-Leon" does not choose a team at the start of the point race on June 20 but continues to participate in the [Ranked Battles] and joins a team on June 29, the points earned from participating in the [Ranked Battles] from June 20 to July 19 will still be calculated for "CN-Leon."
[*] At the end of the point race, only the total [Ranked Battles] scores of the top 15 players in the team will be considered as the team's score.
[*] Points Race Notices:：
- 1）If a team leader has characters on multiple servers or multiple characters on the same server, the point calculation will be based on the server where the character with the highest [Ranked Battles] score is located. If team members have characters on multiple servers or multiple characters on the same server, the server where the team leader is located will be used to calculate the point race.
- 2）Duplicate registrations are prohibited in the CBL. If a player is found to have created multiple characters and joined multiple teams on the CBL server during calculations, the player's eligibility will be revoked, and the teams will not be allowed to add replacement members.
- 3）Forming teams across different server sequences, such as Jiulongzhuri and Kaijiangtuoyu, is not allowed. Members belonging to different server sequences will be considered invalid registrations, and their teams will not be allowed to add replacement members. The server sequence of the team will be based on the character registered by the team leader, and team members must confirm the server sequence of the team with the leader.
- 4）Teams that do not provide contact information (Discord/QQ) or cannot be contacted by the official team will be considered invalid registrations.
- 5）The final list of the team and [Ranked Battles] scores used in calculation are all based on the status at the registration deadline of July 19.
- 6）The seasonal rank or [Ranked Battles] score of promoted team members will be publicly displayed.
Because the promotion for the 2024 CBL Regional Tournaments is primarily based on the total points in "Ranked Battles" of the registered team members. So, don't miss the "Ranked Battles" when the new season starts on June 20th. Warlords, make sure to call your brothers for ranking matches together.
