The Captain with the higher number will choose between deciding between First Ban / First Pick OR Sides.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• In the event of an accidental hero pick, teams should remake AP and re-pick the same heroes that were chosen before along with the one that was intended to be picked.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• The game is complete when either team’s main structure is destroyed or when either team concedes the match.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Game Disconnections / Crashes&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Games should be PAUSED in the event of a player(s) disconnection in order to allow the player to reconnect&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• In the event of a game crash, teams should reconnect if possible and continue the match. If an issue occurs and players are unable to reconnect, the match will be RESTARTED if it is before the concede mark (15 minutes)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• If the server picked has been deemed bugged or unplayable by both team captains by the concede mark (15 minutes), the game must be PAUSED and the captains must decide and agree upon whether to continue OR remake&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• If a player from either team disconnects, the game should be PAUSED. However, the captain of the player that disconnects may deem it unnecessary (e.g. the disconnected player is able to reconnect and his hero is on a 50 second death timer)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• If a player disconnects from the game and is unable to reconnect, the player’s captain has the veto power to ask for the game to be continued as 4v5. If he does not wish to do so, the marshals must be consulted on whether the game should be remade (advisable for games below 15 minutes) OR 4v5 continuation be forced (disconnected player’s hero is available for use till its timer runs out after which, removed from game and all its items are available for distribution&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• If a match is unable to continue (e.g. more than 1 player disconnecting on either teams / server crash / power outage), the following checklist should be adopted to conclude the winning team:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;　POINTS SYSTEM&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Kill Score: Each hero kill is worth 0.33 points&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Tower Score: Outer towers count as 1 point; Base towers (towers guarding ramp entries) count as 2 points; Ranged barracks count as 2.5 points; Melee barracks count as 3 points; Throne towers count as 3 points. Sum total of all tower points will give the final tower score&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Chat Regulations&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• Modifications are banned from use. Any 3rd party voice program is permitted for use as well as the provided internal voice chat.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;• In-game Team chat is permitted among the team. Global chats should be kept to a minimum if possible however; there are no specific guidelines on this.

            <title>Audio Jack Splitters</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1714553</link>
            <description>Hi&amp;#33; I have a problem here, which I hope someone in LYN will have the solution to. As we all know, some laptops nowadays like to have only 1 Audio Output/Voice Input combo jack instead of the traditional 2 separate jacks. However, this has posed to be a problem for some of us, as we have headphones that consists of 2 3.5mm jacks for each of them. With that combo jack, we cannot use both features of our headphones, and thus must sacrifice one.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, there is still hope&amp;#33; I did a search on the internet, and it turns out there is something called &amp;quot;Audio Jack Splitter&amp;quot; which splits the combo jack into 2 separate Audio Out/Voice In jacks. I think it looks something like this: &lt;a href='http://www.showmecables.com/viewItem.asp?idProduct=8335' target='_blank'&gt;Combo Jack Splitter&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The problem is, I tried asking around in hypermarkets in Low Yat, but to no avail. I also did a quick search in the forum, but couldn&amp;#39;t come up with any questions like this. So, is there anyone out there who can help me? Greatly appreciate it, thanks&amp;#33;&amp;#33;&amp;#33;</description>
