There are few things new players should make sure to remember when applying for House of Quake:
1. All players should double check if their SteamID is entered for Quake Live.
2. Clan leaders, after creating clan, must create squad and add players from clan to that particular squad.

Failure to follow any of these instructions will result in your team not being able to join the league.

Each map will be playable for a week and you will have the opportunity to record your best run.
The servers are set up specifically for the cup, spectating is disabled in order to prevent route stealing, player models are also turned off. Make sure to filter in server browser with race, lowgrav.
The servers have !CUP! at the end.

Each map can be played in both physics (PQL/VQL), with weapons or strafe only.
That means there are 4 modes:

VQL Strafe
VQL Weapon
PQL Strafe
PQL Weapon


which brings us to the ranking system:

We will determine a overall winner for each mode across the 5 maps using a point system, similar to Formula 1.

1st Place = 25 Points
2nd Place = 18 Points
3rd Place = 15 Points
4th Place = 12 Points
5th Place = 10 Points
6th Place = 8 Points
7th Place = 6 Points
8th Place = 4 Points
9th Place = 2 Points
10th Place = 1 Point

So a maximum of 100 points for each mode is possible if you manage to get 1st place in all 4 maps, excluding the tie breaker map.

Ok here are the rules for the cup:
-No wall climbing (bug with autohop on angled walls)
-No OB ramp abuse
-No cheating!
-You must record your runs
-You must have a valid Paypal account if you make it to the money ranks.
