FIFA09: Champions League
Please read and understand both the FIFA09: Champions League and the MatchBox360 General Rules listed below:
FIFA09: Champions League Rules:
Group Stage: 26th October - 16th November
Knockout Stage: 16th November
Subsequent rounds will be played weekly thereafter.
All players must be registered on this site and be resident in the UK or Europe to enter.
The tournament will follow a Champions league format with group and knockout stages accordingly.
Any club team can be used within this tournament, it is merely following the Champions League format.
Groups are determined by seed, if no seed then at random by a MB360 Admin
Four teams are drawn into a group. The top 2 players from each group will progress to the knockout stage.
You are to play each other twice as part of any knockout stage fixture, for each leg. However, for the group stage you are required to play one leg per fixture.
The host will set up the game and play as the home team.
Fixtures are to be arranged in the appropriate fixture threads accordingly.
Results for both games are to be reported in the appropriate fixture threads accordingly.
Group Stage:
The aggregate score will determine the winner or draw.
Points in the group stage will be awarded as follows:
Win = 3pts
Draw = 1pt
Loss = 0pts
You are to play each opponent twice, to total up 6 games. Each group stage fixture will be one leg.
Knockout Stage:
In the event of the aggregate score resulting in a draw, an additional game of 4 minutes per half will be played hosted by the away team stated in the fixture. If teams are still tied then the fixture will be decided on penalties.
Note: I realise this is not how the champions league would run, but away goal advantage would be ridiculous to implement into a tournament such as this.
All fixtures will be played using the following settings:
Unranked
Stadium: Wembley
Teams: Club
Half Length: 6 Minutes
Injuries: On
Offsides: On
Bookings: On
Please note: It is the responsibility of all players to ensure the game settings are correct, and by playing in and completing the game you accept the game settings set by the host player.
The player drawn as the home team must set up the game using the settings above, then invite the other player to join. Onve the first game is completed then the player drawn as the away team must host the second game accordingly. Please ensure you have sufficient room on your friends list to add / receive friend requests from your group opponents.
If as the host, there is no response from your opponent for upto 15 minutes after the scheduled start time then the result will be declared as "no show".
If as the away team, you do not receive a friend request or game invite by the scheduled start time then you must firstly add your host to your friends list, and if after 15 minutes there has been no response then the result will be declared as "no show".
A 4-0 win will be awarded per match for any fixtures determined to be "no show". A "no show" is at the discretion of the admins, and may include quitting the tournament prematurely.
Please be aware that it is the responsibility of both players to ensure the results are reported correctly. If you have any issues with the reported result you must contact an MatchBox360 representative immediately. We advise that you are able to provide clear photographic evidence in case the result is questioned.
Any performance of known glitches in the game will be classed as cheating. If you suspect a team to have used glitches, cheats or abusive behaviour, you must provide sufficient evidence of reasonable quality and the appropriate action will be taken.
Full fixture details & results will be made available online as soon as the results are posted in the forums.
