A. CybernoOb League

The Cyber Noob League, or CNL, was created 2 years ago, on an other esport game; America's Army. With three editions, where fighted best european and french teams, this competition worked always with lot of fun and fair-play.

CNL gives any teams the experience of playing a structured league, for any level, for showing who's the best or simply for playing with cool opponents, with lot of fun and fair-play. So, we made the choice to adapt our old league on MW2, following great examples which were CAL or TWL at their time...

Teams will be shared by 8 into different categories, and different divisions, following their level :
MAIN LEAGUE : M-League is for the basic CNL league, with some level difference but the same envy to play, to compete. Best teams of each divisions win their ticket for trying to get to the H4CK LEAGUE at the end of the season.
PRO LEAGUE : P-League is for the best MW2 teams, following their skill, longevity, experience, etc.

During a season, each team will compete during 7 weeks, with match in 2 maps in MR 12. Each week, one map will be fixed by calendar and the other will be choose by both teams, by veto/elimination.

B. During the season

Calendar and schedules will be generated at the start of the season. Before it, your team will maybe have to play one or two pre-season matches, to determine in which league you can go.

Each week, one map will be fixed by calendar and the other will be choose by both teams, by veto/elimination. During a season, each team will compete during 7 weeks, with match in 2 maps in MR 12. A victory own 3 points, a draw 1 point and a defeat 0 point.
If two teams are tied at the end of the season, they will be decided in terms of numbre of maps won, then number of rounds won...

At the end of a season, the lowest teams of highest categories are demoted in the lower category, the best teams win their tickets for trying to bump into the best league.
C. Conduct of matches

The playday in CNL is on Sunday by default. But, you can arrange with your opponent to play at an another date, but not after : Monday at dawn, the result'll must be record on the match com.
A match begins at 21h00 CET, but you can always arrange with your opponent...

48 rounds will be played per match: 24 rounds on each map, so 12 rounds in each side.
Moreover, all rounds must be played, if a team quit before the end, non-played rounds will be credited to opponent team.

Like we announced you, one map by match is random. This second map is chosen by "veto", or elimination, between 5 maps. Home team have the privilege to choose first the veto, the first map played, their begining side and if they host the first or the second map.

Example: Team A VS team B, veto. Team A eliminate Terminal, Team B eliminate Karachi, Team A elimite Favela, Team B eliminate Skidrow, so second map will be Invasion. Team A choose by which map they want to start and their begining side.
No cutround. On the second map, we reverse sides... if Team A has begun in Assault on the first map, they'll defend first on the second map.

F. Website's manual

Team management, matches organization... team capitains can control everything on the Manage control pannel on the website.
If you're connect, you'll access to the capitain settings.

If you're an average player, you can join a team or create yours, but also enter your IDs (UAC, Steam) and change your profile (email, nickname...)

If you're a capitain, you'll see theses other options :

G. General points

* Matchs Com is your best friend : any modification has to be reported on matchs com (arrangement, hour...).
* Be punctual : if after 20 minutes, your opponent isn't on steam, victory is your's (except if you are cool and you wait more minutes or somtething ...).
