TD Rules & Guidelines

Code of Conduct:As a Case's Ladder Tournament Director, you are required to treat all members of the online community with respect and conduct yourself in a courteous manner at all times. Do not use your position as a TD to put yourself above others or abuse power in any way. When posting in forums, refrain from being abusive or negative toward other players. In general, just remember to treat your fellow gamers how you would like to be treated.
Dedication:Consider the position as a TD to be a duty. There is no reason you can't have fun fulfilling your position, but you must keep in mind that there are lots of people waiting for their turn to be a TD. Therefore, you must stay active and dedicated, as the members of the community depend on you to fulfill their tournament needs. If at any time you feel you cannot handle the responsibility of holding tournaments, just inform the Head TD Team of your situation so that we can make the spot available for another volunteer.
LadderBux:LadderBux are a virtual point system that Case's Ladder uses to reward its members. There are two types of tournaments that involve LadderBux. The first type has no entry fee, and gives back as many LadderBux as there are players. You must complete five (5) tournaments before holding tournaments of this type. The second type has an entry of LadderBux, and returns the pool back to the top finishers. In order to hold a tournament with an entry fee, you must complete ten (10) tournaments.
Stay Current:Please be sure to read all your E-mail carefully, as tournament system updates are frequently sent to all TD's. Also be sure to check the Tournament System Announcements on a regular basis.
No Shows:Be sure to arrive in the tournament room at least 30 minutes prior to your tournament start time. No shows or late shows are looked down upon. They not only give Case's Ladder a bad name but also result in disappointment to the players who have planned on participating. A rare no show due to an unforeseen emergency is always understandable, but please try to inform a member of the Head TD Team of the emergency so they can inform the players.
Requirements: You must be a member of the Ladder you are applying for to become a Tournament Director. It is recommended you have at least three months experience of competition on Case's Ladder to ensure you have a full understanding of the game for which you are applying. It is also strongly suggested that you be at least fifteen (15) years of age and have a somewhat open schedule. If you are selected as a Tournament Director you will be given a TD Guide containing the most recent TD Rules and Guidelines. Specific Ladders may have additional requirements for TD's.
