ITG TECH RULES 10-24-06: I AM NOW ACCEPTING SONG EDITS FOR QUALIFIERS. PLEASE EMAIL THEM TO digitalstorm2 at gmail.com. SIMFILES ARE DUE BY JANUARY 1st, 2007.
Qualifier:
This is where you will play an important role. As the new patch allows for custom songs up to 2 minutes long, I am allowing you to send me what you think would be a good 9 foot qualifier. Of all of the songs I receive, I will randomly choose two from a pre-arranged selection of 10 songs. Each paid entrant will have the option of selecting one song to play. The score that they achieve will be their final qualifying score. The top 32 entrants will advance to the bracket rounds.

BRACKET ROUNDS--
The bracket round will run very simply. All matches, exluding the finals, will be best of 3 songs. Higher seed has choice of taking a side or choosing song order. Each player will select a song, highest percentage wins the song. If a third song is needed, CHANCE EXPERT with the RANDOM modifier will be the third song (EXCEPTION: SEE LOSERS BRACKET OPTION).
-No official ITG songs below difficulty EXPERT.
-All remaining simfiles will be available to play, however, a player may only choose any particular song once.
-In the Losers' bracket, players have a special option to prevent immediate elimination. By paying half of the entry fee, they may choose to extend the match to a best of 5 match. A player can only use this option once, and cannot use it in a finals match. Only the player who is to be eliminated may use this option and this option can only be used once a match. Song choice circumstances follow:
- IF THE OPTION IS USED AS A PLAYER IS LOSING 2-0: Play will continue as a normal best-of-5 match would, with the non-optioning player choosing the next song.
- IF THE OPTION IS USED AS A PLAYER IS LOSING 2-1: Optioning player will forfeit any song selections for that match; Non-optioning player has choice of song, and, if a fifth song is needed, will be CHANCE EXPERT with the RANDOM modifier added.

FINALS--
The Finals for Digital Storm 2 will run as a bracket match with exceptions as follows:
-Match will be a best of 5 match.
-No songs lower than difficulty 9 will be played.
-All ITG songs must be played on EXPERT.
-If the winners' bracket player loses, another best of 5 match will be played.

RESTRICTED SONGS:
ALL DDR MIXES
ANY SONGS WITH INNAPPROPRIATE LYRICS
SONGCHARTS OVER 400 BPM
SONGCHARTS WITH LESS THAN 350 STEPS
Anything else that I have not stated that would be considered unfair, I reserve the right to reject any simfile submitted to me, furthermore, if a simfile is used that was not used the that collection of songs I am presenting, the player will be disqualified and barred from the premises for the remainder of the event without a refund.
BPM CHANGES: If they are reasonable and go with the song, I will allow them.
Thoughts are open, and so are suggestions.
