Information om utbetalning av prispengar

Mottagaren av prispengar är den individ eller organisation/företag som har registrerat sig för tävlingen.

DreamHack AB betalar EJ ut prispengar om inte vinnaren/na närvarar vid prisceremonin och tillhörande fotografering. Detta är icke förhandlingsbart.

Prispengarna utbetalas senast 90 dagar efter avslutat evenemang

Prispengar är endast undantaget från skatt om det vinnande laget är ett bolag eller ideell organisation som innehar F-Skatt sedel.

Är detta inte fallet anser Skatteverket att utbetalning av prispengar är att likställa med löneutbetalning. Därför kommer kontrolluppgift att upprättas samt att källskatt och sociala avgifter avdrages från prissumman om vinnaren icke är ett bolag eller ideell organisation som innehar F-Skatt sedel.

OBS: Tävlingspriserna måste begäras ut senast inom 30 dagar efter avslutat evenemang.

Faktureringsuppgifter: Fakturan skall ha 90 dagars betaltid från faktura datum.

Information Regarding Prize Money Payments

The recipient of the prize money is the individual person or company/association/non-profit organization that has registred for the tournament. DreamHack AB will NOT pay out any prize money if the winner/s is not present at the Prize Ceremony and connected photo-shoot. This is not negotiable.

Prize money will be paid within 90 days of the end of the event.

Prize money is only exempted from tax if the winning team is organized as a company/association/non-profit organization. Else the government will see the prize money as salary. DreamHack AB must therefore deduct both a general payroll tax and employment tax from the won prize amount, before the money is paid out to teams/players that are not part of such organizations.

NB: Competition prizes must be claimed within 30 days after the event.

Invoice info: The invoice shall have a due date 90 days from the time the invoice is sent.

Restrictions

No Restrictions! 

 

Registering

Shortly before the tournament starts, we want the teamcaptain of every team to show up at GAME information desk in Hall A, to aktivate their teams, and tell us their place numbers.

Team leaders are responsible for uploading results, checking the brackets for new opponents and ensuring that his team's players are present and mannerly.

Server

All games should be played using GG-Client (Guide). As some games will be streamed it is mandatory to join the GG-Client GosuGamers DotA Tournament Room (which is located under Leagues in the War3 TFT RPG -> Europe) to make things easier for the persons who will stream the game to contact you.

If for some reason you cannot make GG-Client work, and your game will not be streamed - try to agree with your opponents on a different platform, i.e. Hamachi (Guide) or Battle.net with /listchecker (LC).(Guide). If you do not know how to set up GG-Client, Hamachi or LC read the guides above or ask your opponent to help you out. Hamachi or LC give approximately similar ping reduction compared to regular Battle.net games, hence we leave it up to players’ decision which platform suits their case best.

NOTE: Playing on battle.net with LC requires a valid CD-Key. Make sure that all players on your team have that in case you are unable to play on GG-Client or Hamachi.

 

Reporting

The team that lost has to report the game on the webpage. If you lost in winner brackets, you will face a new opponent in loser brackets.

If the losing team did not report the winning team will have to notify a referee and submit a replay of the game to  dota [@] dreamhack [dot] se. Alternatively, you can take a print screen of the end game screen or the enemy team forfeiting.

 

Walkover

A walkover will be given if one of the players has not showed up 20 minutes after the match was supposed to start. Every round has a specific time set to it, which is when the match should start. Both teams shall be ready to start by the start of the round. If a team is close to be 'walkovered' more than once he or she might be given a warning.

Only referees can give walkovers.

 

Complaints

 If you suspect that your opponent has broken the rules you have to submit a complaint to a referee.

You are NOT ALLOWED to submit a complaint if you:

 • Have started your next game.

• It was more than an hour since your game ended.

 

Bugs

 Bug using may result in a default loss.

 Activating the enemies team glyphe of fortification is forbidden.(e.g. with a crow)

 Blocking Base entrances with spells is forbidden (e.g. Fissure).

 

Warnings and Bans

 A referee is authorised to:

 • Reverse the result of a game

 • Revoke the result of a game (the game will be replayed)

 • Give a team a warning

 • Ban a team

 Two warnings will result in a ban. If you are banned you are not allowed to continue playing in the tournament.

 The referee has full authority to give the verdict at his/her own discretion.

 Examples:

 A warning might be given to a team not following the item limitations. If that team won the game, a referee may also reverse the result of the game.

 NOTE: If this happens in the winner brackets the team given the loss will continue in the loser brackets.

 A ban might be given to a team manipulating the game, e.g. by using maphack.

Third Party Programs

AutoHotkey, Ventrilo or any other programs filling the same purpose are allowed. Using any other program will result in a ban.

 If you are uncertain whether a program is allowed or not, ask a referee.
