Registration
- All tournament registrations will be conducted through FusionPlay. A two-week registration period will be provided before the start of each tournament.
- For in-person events, all participants are expected to be available at the specified time and location as listed on the event details.
- For online tournaments, greater flexibility is offered. Once placed in a table or bracket, game schedules will be displayed on FusionPlay with a default time of 11:59 PM. This indicates that results for each game must be submitted by the end of the listed day. If an extension is needed, please reach out through the Discord or email intramurals@illinois.edu. However, to maintain smooth progress of the tournament, games may be forfeited if deadlines cannot be met.
- Participants and their opponents have complete freedom to coordinate the timing of their games. The use of the official Discord server is strongly recommended to facilitate communication and scheduling.
Online Result Submission
Match results can be submitted to the appropriate Game Submission channel under the specific event on Discord. Submissions must include a screenshot of the match results and Fusion Play team names. Please email intramurals@illinois.edu with any questions or issues.
