Tank Appearance Throughout Tournament

[H2O p34nUt]

I was watching a few CEVO videos for L4D2, and I noticed an interesting rule they have. If one team gets a Tank, and the other team does NOT, they are required to re-play that round, barring the team without the Tank is winning at the end. Do we have any similar rules? I know it is a very slim chance (i think 5%) that a Tank will only spawn for one side, but in the event it happens, what is the official ruling? They usually wait until the end of the match to decide if they need to replay that chapter, and they deduct both teams' scores from the total, and add the new scores after replaying. What should/could we do in a case such as this?
Thanks,

I think this would fall in the realm of personal courtesy. I think it would be best to just restart from level where the glitch occurred. So if there was a tank for one side and not the other in the 3rd level then just RTL and start the 3rd level over again. Then just add the scores from the first two levels. So remember to record your scores from each level kids!!!!

i agree with that. is it possible we could get a confirmation from the tournament director? maybe make this a rule, rather than a courtesy. because some people may not be as courteous, haha. i know i will extend this courtesy and I hope that my opponents believe in it as well. =]

As will we. I also made a thread about a 5min lag out courtesy. I think most minor problems can be resolved between captains. We all want fair honest competition. It's pretty much up to us to act as our own referees. Anyone playing us can invite me to a party if there is any kind of problem. As long as your team stops attacking/advancing I'll join and try to work whatever is wrong out!

cool. i am glad. i will also agree to the 5 minute rule. it is best to discuss it before the match to make sure that others are aware. hope to see you down the road. we are H2O Clan Team Pi
