UNAC QUARTER FINALS
As most of you are aware, the regular season is officially over. Which marks the start of single-elimination, we decided to officially start quarter-finals scheduling on Tuesday, the 31st. For one reason; by the time week six ended, it just felt really tight to jump right into single-elimination, so we wanted to give teams some breathing room before doing so. So with no further ado, I'll explain how the quarter finals will go down. Here's what you need to know;
The official start date of the quarter finals is May 31st (Tuesday), however, you can start scheduling before that. We'll be strict with extensions, so try and follow a Tuesday to Tuesday schedule. So if you and your opponent can't agree to a date, get the admins involved.
Single-elimination will be using a pick and ban system for fixtures. We will be doing the official picks and bans process on Monday at 6PM (EST), I'll explain how said process works later on. However, if do not want to go through the official process if you want, you can do your picks and bans with your opponent via steam or skype. If you do decide to do that, you must PM the administrators your picks and bans or post them in this thread.
All picks and bans must be completed by the end of Tuesday, if you haven't completed your picks and bans by then, the admin team will randomize fixtures for your match.
Here's how the official picks and bans process will go down;
It will start on Monday the 30th, at 6PM (EST). We recommend that you study the map pool before starting.

Team A (which refers to the higher seeded team) has until 6PM (EST) to veto their first map. Then the process goes like this;
[list type=decimal]
[*]Team A makes first veto by 6PM EST
[*]Team B has 10 minutes to make their veto.
[*]Team A has 10 minutes to make their 2nd veto.
[*]Team B has 10 minutes to make their 2nd veto.
[*]Team A has 10 minutes to pick their map.
[*]Team B has 10 minutes to pick their map.
[/list]
Should a team fail to make a veto in time, it will be treated as though they chose not to make one. Should a team fail to pick their map in time, their map choice will be randomly selected.
