As previously stated in other posts on this board, the official RGL servers will be making use of a special GUID tracking script in order to prevent double-regging and illegitimate roster swaps. All GUID's submitted to the administration through roster updates are compiled into a database, which is then tied to regimental tags, an example of this is given below.
REGIMENT TAG
Using 92nd as an example, every GUID which is submitted for their roster in this thread will be compiled under the 92nd_ tag on the database, which means that anyone who joins an official RGL server with the 92nd tag (92nd_), who's GUID is also within the database, will be able join a team. If any of your players are having trouble joining a team when they get onto one of the servers, it will mean one of four things. 1] Their GUID has not been submitted to us and is not in the database. 2] The GUID provided for that player is incorrect, or they are playing under a different ID. 3] The tags they are wearing do not match the tag on the database. For example if the database tag is 2Lr_ and a player is wearing the tag 2lr_ (capital letters matter) they will not be able to join. 4] One of the database editors has inputted the players GUID incorrectly (we are after all still human and can make mistakes, but it is very unlikely that this will ever happen). In the event that this does happen however, a GUID can be added or amended instantly by one of the organisers, once the database has been updated the player(s) need only to leave and rejoin the server for the script to take effect.
It is extremely important that you make sure all members of your regiment are wearing the correct tags to avoid any problems or delays within matches. Anything that follows the _ of a tag is not important to the scipt (rank & name), however we insist that players use their community name to make tracking of players easier for the tournament staff.
An example of how a regimental roster will look in the database, post GUID application, is given below.
REGIMENT ROSTER
A section to submit your regimental tag has been added to the application. I have tried to explain the workings of the scripts with as much clarity as possible here, however if you have any questions regarding how any of it works please do not hesitate to ask one of the staff members.
Thanks.
