Speedrun Rules- All runs must be done with stock items only with the exception of the cow mangler, original, gunboats for soldier (melee reskins are fine).
- For offline runs, all tempus settings and rules apply (no hurtme, buddha, sv_gravity, TAS, regen commands, pitchdown, button cheating, alt accounts, or different weapon whitelists).
-only plugins allowed are speedo and rampfix - Completing the map in obviously glitchy or unintended ways will nullify the run (using moveable props or walking backwards on stage 1)

- For offline runs
-Submit runs to TheTempusCup@gmail.com
-Both pov and stv demos are required or your run will NOT be accepted, no exceptions. - Format to name demos

Donation InfoDue to issues with the previous method to donate USD, its recommended to buy keys and donate those instead. If paypal is preferred contact me and we can discuss. The minimum amount to get a shoutout at the end of the map is still 10 USD or tf2 item equivalent (5 keys minimum for shoutout, non key items will be converted to keys.)
- Donations will remain open until the final day of stage 3(jan 29th), this is also the last day to get your name onto the shoutout board at the end of maps.
- All donations will be converted to tf2 keys to make payouts smoother
